Algebraic structures featuring graph dimensions, Hölder regularity, and fractional differentiability

We investigate the algebraic genericity of various families of continuous functions exhibiting extreme irregularity, focusing on fractal dimensions, Hölder regularity, and fractional differentiability. Our first main result shows that for every $s \in (1,s]$, the set of continuous functions on $[0, 1]$ whose graph has Hausdorff and box dimensions equal to s is strongly $\mathfrak{c}$-algebrable, thereby tackling an open question by Bonilla et al., and complementing recent findings by Liu et. al and Carmona et al. We then extend the analysis to Hölder spaces: although the pointwise Hölder exponent of a generic function in $C^α[0, 1]$ is constant, we prove that the collection of functions realizing this behavior is $\mathfrak{c}$-lineable but cannot form an algebra. Nevertheless, we construct strongly $\mathfrak{c}$-algebrable families of functions that exhibit Hölder exponent $α$ outside a set of Hausdorff dimension zero. Finally, as a consequence of the relation between strongly monoHölder functions and fractional differentiability, we analyze the strong $\mathfrak{c}$-algebrability of nowhere (Riemann-Liouville) fractional differentiable functions.

Weighted tensorized fractional Brownian textures

This paper presents a new model of textures, obtained as realizations of a new class of fractional Brownian fields. These fields, called weighted tensorized fractional Brownian fields, are obtained by a relaxation of the tensor-product structure that appears in the definition of fractional Brownian sheets. Statistical properties such as self-similarity, stationarity of rectangular increments and regularity properties are obtained. An operator scaling extension is defined and we provide simulations of the fields using their spectral representation.

Constructing self-similar subsets within the fractal support of Lacunary Wavelet Series for their multifractal analysis

Given a fractal $\mathcal{I}$ whose Hausdorff dimension matches with the upper-box dimension, we propose a new method which consists in selecting inside $\mathcal{I}$ some subsets (called quasi-Cantor sets) of almost same dimension and with controled properties of self-similarties at prescribed scales. It allows us to estimate below the Hausdorff dimension $\mathcal{I}$ intersected to limsup sets of contracted balls selected according a Bernoulli law, in contexts where classical Mass Transference Principles cannot be applied. We apply this result to the computation of the increasing multifractal spectrum of lacunary wavelet series supported on $\mathcal{I}$.

Regularity of Weighted Tensorized Fractional Brownian Fields and associated function spaces

We investigate a new class of self-similar fractional Brownian fields, called Weighted Tensorized Fractional Brownian Fields (WTFBS). These fields, introduced in the companion paper \cite{ELLV}, generalize the well-known fractional Brownian sheet (FBs) by relaxing its tensor-product structure, resulting in new self-similar Gaussian fields with stationary rectangular increments that differ from the FBs. We analyze the local regularity properties of these fields and introduce a new concept of regularity through the definition of Weighted Tensorized Besov Spaces. These spaces combine aspects of mixed dominating smoothness spaces and hyperbolic Besov spaces, which are similar in structure to classical Besov spaces. We provide a detailed characterization of these spaces using Littlewood-Paley theory and hyperbolic wavelet analysis.

Lacunary wavelet series on Cantor sets

We provide a multifractal analysis of lacunary wavelet series on Cantor sets. Byintroducing a desynchronization between the scales of the wavelets and the scales of the steps of the construction of the Cantor set, we obtain random processes that donot satisfy multifractal formalisms based on the Legendre transform and on the large deviation of wavelet leaders. Subsequently, we show how the computation of the leader large deviation spectra of "lacunarized" versions of such wavelet series can detect the failure in the multifractal formalism using only numerical quantities.

Regularity properties of random wavelet series

We study the regularity properties of random wavelet series constructed by multiplying the coefficients of a deterministic wavelet series with unbounded I.I.D. random variables. In particular, we show that, at the opposite to what happens for Fourier series, the randomization of almost every continuous function gives an almost surely nowhere locally bounded function.

On the pointwise regularity of the Multifractional Brownian Motion and some extensions

We study the pointwise regularity of the Multifractional Brownian Motion and in particular, we get the existence of slow points. It shows that a non self-similar process can still enjoy this property. We also consider various extensions of our results in the aim of requesting a weaker regularity assumption for the Hurst function without altering the regularity of the process.

Slow, ordinary and rapid points for Gaussian Wavelets Series and application to Fractional Brownian Motions

We study the Hölderian regularity of Gaussian wavelets series and show that they display, almost surely, three types of points: slow, ordinary and rapid. In particular, this fact holds for the Fractional Brownian Motion. We also show that this property is satisfied for a multifractal extension of Gaussian wavelet series. Finally, we remark that the existence of slow points is specific to these functions.

On the construction of large Algebras not contained in the image of the Borel map

The Borel map $j^{\infty}$ takes germs at 0 of smooth functions to the sequence of iterated partial derivatives at 0. It is well known that the restriction of $j^{\infty}$ to the germs of quasianalytic ultradifferentiable classes which are strictly containing the real analytic functions can never be onto the corresponding sequence space. In a recent paper the authors have studied the size of the image of $j^{\infty}$ by using different approaches and worked in the general setting of quasianalytic ultradifferentiable classes defined by weight matrices. The aim of this paper is to show that the image of $j^{\infty}$ is also small with respect to the notion of algebrability and we treat both the Cauchy product (convolution) and the pointwise product. In particular, a deep study of the stability of the considered spaces under the pointwise product is developed.

$\mathcal{U}$-Frequent hypercyclicity notions and related weighted densities

We study dynamical notions lying between $\mathcal{U}$-frequent hypercyclicity and reiterative hypercyclicity by investigating weighted upper densities between the unweighted upper density and the upper Banach density. While chaos implies reiterative hypercyclicity, we show that chaos does not imply $\mathcal{U}$-frequent hypercyclicity with respect to any weighted upper density. Moreover, we show that if $T$ is $\mathcal{U}$-frequently hypercyclic (resp. reiteratively hypercyclic) then the n-fold product of $T$ is still $\mathcal{U}$-frequently hypercyclic (resp. reiteratively hypercyclic) and that this implication is also satisfied for each of the considered $\mathcal{U}$-frequent hypercyclicity notions.

How far is the Borel map from being surjective in quasianalytic ultradifferentiable classes?

The Borel map takes germs at 0 of smooth functions to the sequence of iterated partial derivatives at 0. In the literature, it is well known that the restriction of this mapping to the germs of quasianalytic ultradifferentiable classes which are strictly containing the real analytic functions can never be onto the corresponding sequence space. In this paper, we are interested in studying how large the image of the Borel map is and we investigate the size and the structure of this image by using different approaches (Baire residuality, prevalence and lineability). We give an answer to this question in the very general setting of quasianalytic ultradifferentiable classes defined by weight matrices, which contains as particular cases the classes defined by a single weight sequence or by a weight function.

A new Multifractional Process with Random Exponent

A first type of Multifractional Process with Random Exponent (MPRE) was constructed several years ago in (Ayache, Taqqu, 2005) by replacing in a wavelet series representation of Fractional Brownian Motion (FBM) the Hurst parameter by a random variable depending on the time variable. In the present article, we propose another approach for constructing another type of MPRE. It consists in substituting to the Hurst parameter, in a stochastic integral representation of the high-frequency part of FBM, a random variable depending on the integration variable. The MPRE obtained in this way offers, among other things, the advantages to have a representation through classical Itô integral and to be less difficult to simulate than the first type of MPRE, previously introduced in (Ayache, Taqqu, 2005). Yet, the study of Hölder regularity of this new MPRE is a significantly more challenging problem than in the case of the previous one. Actually, it requires to develop a new methodology relying on an extensive use of the Haar basis.

Divergence of wavelet series: A multifractal analysis

We show the relevance of a multifractal-type analysis for pointwise convergence and divergence properties of wavelet series: Depending on the sequence space which the wavelet coefficients sequence belongs to, we obtain deterministic upper bounds for the Hausdorff dimensions of the sets of points where a given rate of divergence occurs, and we show that these bounds are generically optimal, according to several notions of genericity.
