Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and difference equations serve as complementary tools in the mathematical modelling of processes evolving in continuous and discrete time respectively. Together ...

In this paper we prove the following theorem: let G be a discrete amenable group with nontrivial almost-periodic compactification, and let F be a complex-valued function defined in [-1, 1]; then F ...
