Musielak-Orlicz spaces that are isomorphic to subspaces of L1 (2015)
Journal Article
Prochno, J. (2015). Musielak-Orlicz spaces that are isomorphic to subspaces of L1. Annals of Functional Analysis, 6(1), 84-94. https://doi.org/10.15352/afa/06-1-7

We prove that 1/n! ∑π∈Gn (∑ni=1 |xiai,π(i)|2)1/2 is equivalent to a Musielak-Orlicz norm ||x||∑Mi. We also provide the converse result, i.e., given the Orlicz functions, we provide a formula for the choice of the matrix that generates the correspondi...

We study the metastability of the ferromagnetic Ising model on a random r-regular graph in the zero temperature limit. We prove that in the presence of a small positive external field the time that it takes to go from the all minus state to the all p...

Schistosomiasis is endemic in 54 countries, but has one of the lowest coverages by mass drug administration of all helminth diseases. However, with increasing drug availability through donation, the World Health Organisation has set a goa...

The rank of the semigroup of transformations stabilising a partition of a finite set (2015)

Let P be a partition of a finite set X. We say that a full transformation f:X→X preserves (or stabilizes) the partition P if for all P∈P there exists Q∈P such that Pf⊆Q. Let T(X,P) denote the semigroup of all full transformations of X that preserve t... Read More about The rank of the semigroup of transformations stabilising a partition of a finite set.

On the abundance of extreme voids (2015)

Cosmic voids have been shown to be an effective probe of cosmology, complementary to galaxy clusters. In this work, we present a simple theoretical framework for predicting of the size of the largest voids expected within a given redshift and volume....
