We study the minimum number of inflection points among generic immersed closed plane curves with a fixed embedded shadow. The word immersed is essential: a genuinely embedded Jordan curve has inflection minimum zero. For tree-like shadows,…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with degree sequence $d_1 \geq \cdots \geq d_{n}$. Let $m_{G}I$ be the number of signless Laplacian eigenvalues in an interval $I$. In this paper, we characterize the distribution of the signless Laplacian…

We show that the fields emerging from the log-determinant and the eigenvalue counting function of smooth Wigner matrices converge in law to centered Gaussian, logarithmically correlated, random elements in every negative Sobolev space…

We study a symmetry problem for the $h$-polynomials of edge rings of bipartite graphs. Let $G$ be a bipartite graph and write $h(\mathbb{k}[G];t)=h_0+h_1t+\cdots+h_st^s$. We prove that if $\Bbbk[G]$ is pseudo-Gorenstein and $h_1=h_{s-1}$,…

We establish a family of parametric isoperimetric-type inequalities with multiple geometric quantities for closed convex curves. These inequalities hold under certain parameter conditions. We also prove the equality conditions. Some new…

In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…

In this paper, we use affine surfaces to describe completely the real-time trajectories of a homogeneous vector field in $\mathbf{C}^{2}$. We prove the existence of a continuous "rotation number" in $\mathbf{C}^{2}$ which is constant along…

In 1910, \'{E}lie Cartan famously realized the split real form of the exceptional Lie group $G_2$ as the symmetry group of the maximally symmetric rank 2 distribution on a 5-dimensional manifold with the small growth vector (2,3,5). In this…

In this paper we study the normalized solutions of the following critical growth Choquard equation with mixed local and non-local operators: \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{rcl} -\Delta_p u +(-\Delta_p)^s u & = & \lambda |u|^{p-2}u +\mu…

In this paper, we study the convergence rate between reflected backward stochastic differential equations with quadratic generators and their penalized BSDEs. Using techniques of BMO martingales, we prove the convergence rate is at order…

Derived brackets provide a mechanism for generating algebraic structures from graded Lie superalgebras, with applications in Poisson geometry, mathematical physics, and the theory of algebroids. In this paper, we present a complete…

In this article, we prove the strong monodromy conjecture for complex hyperplane arrangements by proving a conjecture of Budur, Musta\c t\u a and Teitler that $-n/d$ is a root of the $b$-function of an irreducible essential and central…

We introduce lattice-filtered move graphs as finite-state experimental models for knot types. At level N, vertices are lattice-polygon representatives of a fixed knot type with lattice length at most N, modulo orientation-preserving lattice…

In this work, we develop a new theory of multivariate V-filtration on D-modules along a simple normal crossing divisor and relate it with Sabbah's multi-filtration. We establish several new structural results and relate them with the Hodge…

Mirkovi\'c--Vilonen (MV) polytopes play a key role in the representation theory of reductive algebraic groups, while the geometric behavior of prime MV polytopes under Minkowski addition remains a subtle open problem. This paper focuses on…

Selecting a finite dictionary of observables whose span is Koopman-invariant is a central challenge in data-driven Koopman operator approximation. We address this problem by exploiting zero-block structure in Extended Dynamic Mode…

We present an open problem about non-colliding freely moving hard disks in the Euclidean plane, together with related positive and negative partial results. The open problem is stated in a non-degenerate form: velocities are required to be…

For a graph $G$ on $[n]$, the $k$-cut complex $\Delta_k(G)$ has facets $[n]\setminus T$, where $T$ ranges over the disconnected $k$-vertex induced subgraphs of $G$. Bayer, Denker, Jeli\'c Milutinovi\'c, Sundaram, and Xue proved that the…

We consider the following problem: Let $H$ and $F$ be two graphs on $k$ vertices and assume $F \neq H$. We say that $H$ and $F$ are incomparable if neither $F$ nor $H$ contains the other. Let $H$ be a graph on $k$ vertices and let $G$ be a…

In the context of geometric measure theory, Llorente-Winter introduced the (average) fractal Euler number as a notion of the Euler characteristic for fractals embedded in Euclidean space. However, the class of fractals to which it is…
