Interchange of integration order (of a not absolutely convergent integral with sinus)
Can we interchange the integral order of this integral to start integration on $x$ ? (Taking $g$ and $f$ two functions of rapid decrease which are $o(x^2)$ near zero)
$$A=\int_{0}^\infty \int_0^{\...

When the value of a function in a point is equal to its integral average over the point's neighborhood?
It is well-known that the harmonic functions have this remarkable Averaging Property: if $f$ is harmonic in a domain $U \subset R^n$, then, for any point $x \in U$, $f(x)$ is equal to the integral ...

Relationship between $f(t,x)$ as $t \to \infty$ and $f(t/\epsilon, x/\epsilon^2)$ as $\epsilon \to 0$ (periodic functions)
Let $f: (0,\infty)\times \mathbb {R} \to \mathbb{R}$ be $1$-periodic in the second variable and in $L^\infty((0,\infty)\times \mathbb{R}).$ If it is necessary, we can also assume $f$ to be continuous. ...
