Let F1(x) and F2(x) be two distribution functions, that is, non-decreasing, right-continuous functions such that Fj(— ∞) = 0 and Fj(+ ∞) = 1 (j = 1, 2). We denote their convolution by F(x) so thatthe above integrals being defined as the Lebesgue-Stieltjes integrals. Then it is easy to verify (2, p. 189) that F(x) is a distribution function. Let f1(t), f2(t), and f(t) be the corresponding characteristic functions, that is,

AbstractWe introduce and investigate an adaptation of Fourier series to set-valued functions (multifunctions, SVFs) of bounded variation. In our approach we define an analogue of the partial sums of the Fourier series with the help of the Dirichlet kernel using the newly defined weighted metric integral. We derive error bounds for these approximants. As a consequence, we prove that the sequence of the partial sums converges pointwisely in the Hausdorff metric to the values of the approximated set-valued function at its points of continuity, or to a certain set described in terms of the metric selections of the approximated multifunction at a point of discontinuity. Our error bounds are obtained with the help of the new notions of one-sided local moduli and quasi-moduli of continuity which we discuss more generally for functions with values in metric spaces.

In this paper, we provide several bounds for the modulus of the complex Čebyšev functional. Applications to the trapezoid and mid-point inequalities, that are symmetric inequalities, are also provided.

Questions of the decomposability of distribution functions into real-valued components of bounded variation were discussed by P. Lévy (1964) in relation to the nature of the components, whether non-decreasing (distribution functions in particular) or absolutely continuous (a.c.) or both. Hanson (1965), in a review of Lévy's paper, raised the question of whether or not a rectangular distribution could be decomposed into two a.c. distributions. In fact, D. G. Kendall had conjectured earlier (Kendall (1960)) that no such decomposition is possible. The object of this paper is to state and prove the truth of Kendall's conjecture. “Decomposition” or “factorisation” will be understood throughout the paper to mean decomposition into distributions. Decompositions of the rectangular distribution into one a.c. and one discrete factor are well known (see, e.g., Lukacs (1960) pp. 128–9), and decompositions in which both factors are singular continuous (s.c.) have been discovered by Kendall and by P. M. Lee; it is shown here that no other combinations of factor-type can exist. References to other work on related decomposability properties are given in the papers by Lévy and Kendall cited above.

We consider the total curvature of graphs of curves in high-codimension Euclidean space. We introduce the corresponding relaxed energy functional and prove an explicit representation formula. In the case of continuous Cartesian curves, i.e. of graphs cu of continuous functions u on an interval, we show that the relaxed energy is finite if and only if the curve cu has bounded variation and finite total curvature. In this case, moreover, the total curvature does not depend on the Cantor part of the derivative of u. We treat the wider class of graphs of one-dimensional functions of bounded variation, and we prove that the relaxed energy is given by the sum of the length and total curvature of the new curve obtained by closing the holes in cu generated by jumps of u with vertical segments.

Abstract In this paper we investigate the regularity properties of one-sided fractional maximal functions, both in continuous case and in discrete case. We prove that the one-sided fractional maximal operators $ \mathcal{M}_{\beta}^{+} $ and $ \mathcal{M}_{\beta}^{-} $ map $ W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}) $ into $ W^{1,q}(\mathbb{R}) $ with 1 <p <∞, 0≤β<1/p and q=p/(1-pβ), boundedly and continuously. In addition, we also obtain the sharp bounds and continuity for the discrete one-sided fractional maximal operators $ M_{\beta}^{+} $ and $ M_{\beta}^{-} $ from $ \ell^{1}(\mathbb{Z}) $ to $ {\rm BV}(\mathbb{Z}) $. Here $ {\rm BV}(\mathbb{Z}) $ denotes the set of all functions of bounded variation defined on ℤ. The results we obtained represent significant and natural extensions of what was known previously.
