Real analytic periodic function whose critical points are fully denegerated
I have asked this question on MathStackExchange. My question: is there any non-constant real analytic function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ such that, $$\nabla f(x_0)=0 \Rightarrow \nabla^2 f(...

When does the refinement of a paracompact topology remain paracompact?
Let $(X,\tau)$ be a Hausdorff paracompact space. Let $\tau'$ be the smallest $P$-topology refining $(X,\tau)$, i.e. the topology which has for base the $G_\delta$-subsets of $(X,\tau)$.
Is it true ...

Existence of nontrivial categories in which every object is atomic
An object $X$ of a cartesian closed category $\mathbf C$ is atomic if $({-})^X \colon \mathbf C \to \mathbf C$ has a right adjoint (hence is also internally tiny). Intuitively, atomic objects are &...

Finding non-inner derivations of simple $\mathbb Q$-algebras
What's a good example of a simple algebra over a field of characteristic $0$ which has a non-inner derivation but also has the invariant basis number property (IBN)?
I'm under the impression that when ...

Mañé's example of an attractor with no natural measure
I'm reading Milnor's notes on dynamical systems and in Lecture 3 he gives an example of an attractor with no natural measure, which he attributes to Mañé. I can find no other reference in which this ...

Examples of 2-categories with multiple interesting proarrow equipment structures
Proarrow equipments (also known as framed bicategories) are identity-on-objects locally fully faithful pseudofunctors $({-})_* \colon \mathcal K \to \mathcal M$ for which every 1-cell $f_*$ in the ...

Examples of $C^{k,1}$ functions which are not $C^{k+1}$?
I'm currently reading this paper and the authors define the set $C^{k,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ as consisting of all functions $f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ having $k$ derivatives and for which:

Uniform approximation of indicator function of a point
Fix $x \in \mathbb{R}$ and let $I_{[x]}$ be its indicator function. Does anyone know of a sequence of (obviously) discontinuous approximations $g_n$ to $I_{[x]}$ such that
$g_n$ converge uniformly ...

Counterexample for absolute summability of autocovariances of strictly stationary strongly mixing sequence
Suppose $(X_i)_{i\in\mathbb{Z}}$ is a strictly stationary, strongly (i.e. $\alpha-$)mixing sequence of real random variables. If we have $\mathbb{E}[|X_1|^{2+\epsilon}]<\infty$ for some $\epsilon&...

Bialgebras with Hopf restricted (or Sweedler) duals
It is known from the general theory that, given a bialgebra (over a field $k$)

Example for the Sobolev embedding theorem when p=n.
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb R^2$. By the Sobolev embedding theorem, if $k>\frac np$ (in this case $k>\frac 2p$) then
$u\in W^{k,p}(U) \implies u\in C^{k-[\frac 2 p]-1,\gamma}(...
