This paper is a response by several historians of mathematics to a series of papers published from 2012 onwards by Mikhail Katz and various co-authors, the latest of which was recently published in the Mathematical Intelligencer, “Two-Track Depictions of Leibniz’s Fictions” (Katz, Kuhlemann, Sherry, Ugaglia, and van Atten, 2021). At issue is a question of fundamental methodology. These authors take for granted that non-standard analysis provides the correct framework for historical interpretation of the calculus, and castigate rival interpretations as having had a deleterious effect on the philosophy, practice, and applications of mathematics. Rather than make this case by reasoned …

The aim of this paper is to study a class of superoscillatory functions in several variables, removing some restrictions on the functions that we introduced in a previous paper. Since the tools that we used with our approach are not common knowledge we will give detailed proof for the case of two variables. The results proved for superoscillatory functions in several variables can be further extended to supershifts in several variables.

In this paper, we study a specific system of Clifford–Appell polynomials and, in particular, their product. Moreover, we introduce a new family of quaternionic reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces in the framework of Fueter regular functions. The construction is based on a general idea which allows us to obtain various function spaces by specifying a suitable sequence of real numbers. We focus on the Fock and Hardy cases in this setting, and we study the action of the Fueter mapping and its range.

Superoscillating Sequences And Supershifts For Families Of Generalized Functions, F. Colombo, I. Sabadini, Daniele Carlo Struppa, A. Yger

We construct a large class of superoscillating sequences, more generally of F-supershifts, where F is a family of smooth functions in (t, x) (resp. distributions in (t, x), or hyperfunctions in x depending on the parameter t) indexed by λ ∈ R. The frame in which we introduce such families is that of the evolution through Schrödinger equation (i∂/∂t−H (x))(ψ) = 0 (H (x) = −(∂2/∂x2)/2+V (x)), V being a suitable potential). If F = {(t, x) → ϕλ(t, x) ; λ ∈ R}, where ϕλ is evolved from the initial datum x → eiλx , F-supershifts will be of …
