Reference request: Darboux properties of real-valued set functions (measures, densities, etc.)
Fix a set $S$ and let $f: \mathcal P(S) \rightharpoonup \mathbf R$ be a real-valued partial function on the power set of $S$; denote by $\mathcal D$ the domain of $f$. We say that $f$ has:
(i) the ...

Congruence modulo 2 for q-series
This quest arose from certain calculations with integer partitions (having distinct parts) and the corresponding values of their Dyson ranks.
I would like to ask:
QUESTION. Is this congruence true ...

The behavior of an integral related to the inward normal vector near a point of the boundary of a domain
Inspired by this Q&A, I am asking for what kind of non-smooth domains $D$ the following limit
$$
\lim_{r \to 0}\frac{1}{m(D \cap B(x,r))}\int\limits_{D \cap B(x,r)}\frac{z-x}{r}\,m(dz)
$$
where

Monotone version of one-dimensional Whitney extension theorem
Is there a version of the Whitney extension theorem that would extend a monotone $C^\infty$ function on a compact subset of $\mathbb R$ (satisfying the usual Whitney's compatibility conditions) to a ...

Weak Lebesgue spaces and an estimate for BV functions
Let $u \in BV(\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N, \mathbb{R}^N)$. Is it true that there exists a function $f$ in the weak $L^1$ space such that
$$|u(y)-u(x)| \le |x-y|\big|f(y) - f(x)\big|$$
holds for a.e. $...

A question about pushforward measures and continuous Borel isomorphisms
It is fairly well known that if $\mu$ and $\nu$ are nonatomic measures on the standard Borel spaces $(X,B)$ and $(Y,C)$ such that $\mu(X)=\nu(Y)$. If $X$ and $Y$ are uncountable, then there exists a ...

Property so that $f(t)\equiv 0$ for all $t\geq T$ for some finite $T>0$?
Let $f:[0, \infty)\to [0, \infty)$ be non-decreasing and satisfy for all $t>t_{0}$, $$f(t)+C\int_{t_{0}}^{t}f^{\gamma}(s)ds\leq \frac{1}{t-t_{0}}\int_{t_{0}}^{t}f(s)ds,$$ where $0<\gamma<1$ ...

Reference request on Min-Max theorem
Consider the following min-max problem
$$\inf_{x\in M} \sup_{y\in N} F(x,y),$$
where $F: M\times N\to\mathbb R$ is Lipschitz and $y\mapsto F(x,y)$ is concave for all $x\in M$. Could we derive $\...

Reference request for weak solutions of an Elliptic PDE
Edit : I just learned that all weak solutions are $C^\infty$, so this question, by Willie, seems more appropriate than the current one.
I want to find weak, non trivial, continuous, solutions of $$\...

Sum of negative roots of a $5^{th}$ degree monic polynomial
Let $f(x)$ be a $4^{th}$ degree monic polynomial say $f(x) = x^4 + a_1x^3+a_2x^2+a_3x+a_4$ with the property that $a_1<0, a_4>0$ and $a_2<a_3$. They by Descartes' rule of signs we can ...

Is there a transformation or a proof for these integrals?
Here are certain weighted Gaussian integrals I have encountered for which numerical computation reassures equality.
Question. Is this true? If so, is there an underlying transformation or just a ...
