Let $f:[0, \infty)\to [0, \infty)$ be non-increasing (and not necessarily differentiable nor continuous) and satisfy $$f(t)\leq f(0)-C\int_{0}^{t}f(s)^{1/2}ds,$$ where $C>0$. How can one show that ...

Let $y$ be a positive function and $c>0$. If $y$ satisfies the following integral inequality \begin{equation} y(t)+\int_{0}^{t}y(s)ds\leq c_{1}\int_{0}^{t} y^{\frac{3}{2}}(s)ds+c_{2} \end{equation} ...

Consider the integral $$\mathcal{I}=\int_0^t\left(\frac{Ae^{-\lambda t}-Ae^{-\lambda s}}{2}\right)^{2m+1}e^{-\epsilon(t-s)}ds,\tag{1}$$ for constants $A,\lambda,\epsilon,t\in\mathbb{R}$ and $m\in\...

Let us consider the integral operator $T:\mathbb{R}^{n\times d}\to [0,\infty)$ such that for all $K\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times d}$, $$ T(K)=\int_0^1 \operatorname{tr}(KK^\top \Sigma_t) \,d t, $$ where $\...

(Question in the yellow box below.) A few weeks ago I was wondering about the existence of a scalar function $f(s): S^1 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and a turning angle $\phi(s):S^1 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}/...

Given an algebraic surface $S$ defined by an algebraic equation such as $x^{4}+2y^{4}+3z^{4}=1$, how would one find the third smallest eigenvalue $\mu_{3}$ for the differential equation $\Delta f\left(...
