Operator inequalities in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces

open access: yesCommunications Faculty Of Science University of Ankara Series A1Mathematics and Statistics, 2022
In this paper, by using some classical Mulholland type inequality, Berezin symbols and reproducing kernel technique, we prove the power inequalities for the Berezin number ber(A) for some self-adjoint operators A on H(Ω).

Distorted Copulas: Constructions and Tail Dependence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Given a copula C, we examine under which conditions on an order isomorphism ψ of [0, 1] the distortion C ψ: [0, 1]2 → [0, 1], C ψ(x, y) = ψ{C[ψ−1(x), ψ−1(y)]} is again a copula.
