Let $\mathcal{H}(b)$ be the de Branges-Rovnyak space associated to a non-extreme point $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, and let $\phi=b/a$, where $a$ is the Pythagorean mate of $b$. It is known that, if $f$ is a function holomorphic on a…

For large $R$, we consider measurable sets $A\subseteq [0,R]^2$ that avoid triples of points of the form $(x,y)$, $(x+t,y)$, $(x,y+1/t)$ with $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$ and $t>0$, i.e., the vertices of upward-oriented, axis-aligned right triangles…

We study the complex spectrum of the partial theta function \[ \Theta(q,x)=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j, \qquad |q|<1, \] where a spectral value is a parameter for which \(\Theta(q,\cdot)\) has a multiple zero. Since the function is…

The spectrum of Ramanujan's partial theta function $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$, $q\in \mathbb{D}_1$ (the unit disk centered at the origin), $x\in \mathbb{C}$, is the set of values of the parameter $q$ for which…

We prove undecidability for every positive relevant logic extending the system axiomatized by hypothetical syllogism, prefixing, and suffixing and contained in the logic of the semilattice frame $(P_{\mathrm{fin}}(\mathbb{N}), \cup,…

The $(-1)$-Jacobi, Bannai-Ito, and $(-1)$-Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials are studied in [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 364 (2012), 5491-5507], [Adv. Math. 229 (2012), 2123-2158], and [Stud. Appl. Math. 153 (2024), e12728], respectively, through…

In this paper, we prove a spectral restriction theorem on the three-dimensional Heisenberg nilmanifold. Since this manifold is an $\mathbb S^1$-bundle over the flat torus $\mathbb T^2$, the result provides a sub-elliptic counterpart of…

Let $(R,\frak m)$ be a generalized Cohen-Macaulay local ring of prime characteristic $p$. In this paper we give a sharp bound for the Frobenius test exponent of parameter ideals. Namely, we prove that $$\mathrm{Fte}(R) \le \lceil…

We give a simple example of a polynomial contraction automorphism of $\mathbb C^d$, $ d\ge 3 $, with unbounded degree growth. Combined with Poincar\'e-Dulac theorem it provides an algebraic automorphism of $\mathbb C^d$, $ d\ge 3 $, which…

This paper introduces a Laws of Form version of the Quaternions. We call this the Q-Calculus, a 16-valued extension of Laws of Form (LoF) which is closely related to the BF Calculus (where we have a single square root of the mark) and the…

Let $R$ be a local or positively graded ring with a regular presentation $R \cong Q/I$ where $I$ is a monomial ideal generated by $n$ elements on a regular sequence. In Briggs-Grifo-Pollitz (2025), the authors classify the cohomological…

In this paper, we investigate two subclasses of analytic and univalent functions associated with the exponential mapping $\varphi(z)=e^{\alpha z},\qquad 0<\alpha\le1,$ defined via the subordination conditions $\frac{zf'(z)}{f(z)}\prec…

We report on a collection of open problems in commutative algebra and related areas that have been resolved (proved or disproved) using the Rethlas natural-language automated reasoning system. The problems are drawn from several published…

In this note we study the multiplier norm estimates for the multiplication operators between weighted Bergman spaces, whose symbols are the higher-order Schwarzian derivatives of univalent functions. We establish sharp multiplier estimates…

We introduce and study the Bourbaki degree as a numerical invariant for \(2 \times 4\) matrices $\Theta$ of homogeneous polynomials over a polynomial ring \(R = k[x_1, \dots, x_n]\). This invariant, defined via a Bourbaki sequence for the…

We prove some results about the theory of independence in $\mathrm{NSOP}_{3}$ theories that do not hold in $\mathrm{NSOP}_{4}$ theories. We generalize Chernikov's work on simple and co-simple types in $\mathrm{NTP}_{2}$ theories to types…

In chapter 9 of his book "The Axiom of Determinacy, Forcing Axioms, and the Nonstationary Ideal", Woodin shows how to force the Strong Chang Conjecture over models of determinacy using $\mathbb{P}_{\mathrm{max}}$. We show here how a…

Dobbs proved that the second iterate of almost every line in the complex plane under the exponential function is dense in the plane. In this paper, we prove an analogous result for the second iterate of the Zorich map in $\mathbb{R}^3$.

In a previous paper we introduced a version of associativity for a partial infinitary operation. We prove here that if $\gamma$ is an infinite ordinal and some associative infinitary operation is defined for all sequences indexed by…

We investigate B\"uchi Arithmetic $\mathsf{BA}_k$ -- the elementary theory of the natural numbers equipped with addition and the function mapping a number $x$ to the greatest power of $k$ dividing $x$. $\mathsf{BA}_k$ is known to be…
