Applied researchers often need to estimate confidence intervals for functions of parameters, such as the effects of counterfactual policy changes. If the function is continuously differentiable and ...
The present paper is devoted to the investigation of the properties of the space of distributions with discontinuous test functions of several variables. The consideration of discontinuous test ...
Our starting point is the following question: To what extent is a function's value at a point x of a topological space determined by its values in an arbitrarily small (deleted) neighborhood of x? For ...
There are many scientific problems related to the topic of interpolation, especially for non-‎continuous functions, as well as the evaluating of the integrals of such non-continuous ‎‎functions. These ...
ABSTRACT: This article is derived from the research project registered under number 20110343 (Ruiz, 2011), and developed in Escuela Superior de Cómputo del Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN) (School ...
Abstract: Asymptotic stability of continuous-time piecewise affine systems defined over a polyhedral partition of the state space, with possible discontinuous vector field on the boundaries, is ...
This example illustrates some properties of splines. Splines are curves, which are usually required to be continuous and smooth. Splines are usually defined as piecewise polynomials of degree n with ...
Abstract: Technological change is a major motivator for replacing equipment. Models in the literature generally assume that technology evolves continuously according to some known function or that ...
