In this short paper we generalise a theorem due to Kani and Rosen on decomposition of Jacobian varieties of Riemann surfaces with group action. This generalisation extends the set of Jacobians for which it is possible to obtain an isogeny…
The {\em abeliant} is a polynomial rule for producing an $n$ by $n$ matrix with entries in a given ring from an $n$ by $n$ by $n+2$ array of elements of that ring. The theory of abeliants, first introduced in an earlier paper of the author,…
In the recent progress [BE1], [Me] and [Z2], the well-known JC (Jacobian conjecture) ([BCW], [E]) has been reduced to a VC (vanishing conjecture) on the Laplace operators and HN (Hessian nilpotent) polynomials (the polynomials whose Hessian…
If a Jacobi matrix $J$ is reflectionless on $(-2,2)$ and has a single $a_{n_0}$ equal to 1, then $J$ is the free Jacobi matrix $a_n\equiv 1$, $b_n\equiv 0$. I'll discuss this result and its generalization to arbitrary sets and present…
Persymmetric Jacobi matrices are invariant under reflection with respect to the anti-diagonal. The associated orthogonal polynomials have distinctive properties that are discussed. They are found in particular to be also orthogonal on the…
Let $A/\mathbb{Q}$ be a Jacobian variety and let $F$ be a totally real, tamely ramified, abelian number field. Given a character $\psi$ of $F/\mathbb{Q}$, Deligne's Period Conjecture asserts the algebraicity of the suitably normalised value…
Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus >1 over a field K which is finitely generated over the rationals. The section conjecture in Grothendieck's anabelian geometry says that the sections of the canonical projection from the arithmetic…
If a symmetric multilinear algebra is weakly nil, then it is Engel. This result may be regarded as an infinite-dimensional analogue of the well-known Jacobian theorem, which states that if a polynomial mapping has a polynomial inverse, then…
We establish a series of results showing that the Jacobian ideal is contained in the test ideal. We first prove a new result in characteristic $p$ for complete rings over a field $K$. Then we prove some results showing that Jacobian ideals…
We first study some properties of images of commuting differential operators of polynomial algebras of order one with constant leading coefficients. We then propose what we call the image conjecture on these differential operators and show…
We consider a family of vector fields and we assume a horizontal regularity on their derivatives. We discuss the notion of commutator showing that different definitions agree. We apply our results to the proof of a ball-box theorem and…
We prove that the Jacobi identity for the generalized Poisson bracket is satisfied in the generalization of Heisenberg picture quantum mechanics recently proposed by one of us (SLA). The identity holds for any combination of fermionic and…
In this paper, we study a so-called Condition C1 and a weaker Condition C2. For Druzkowski maps Condition C2 is equivalent to the Jacobian conjecture. Main results obtained: - Stating new equivalent formulations of the Jacobian conjecture.…
In this paper, we first show that homogeneous Keller maps are injective on lines through the origin. We subsequently formulate a generalization, which is that under some conditions, a polynomial endomorphism with $r$ homogeneous parts of…
Let $f_1, ..., f_n$ be homogeneous polynomials generating a generic ideal $I$ in the ring of polynomials in $n$ variables over an infinite field. Moreno-Soc\'ias conjectured that for the graded reverse lexicographic term ordering, the…
Jacobi algebroids, that is graded Lie brackets on the Grassmann algebra associated with a vector bundle which satisfy a property similar to that of the Jacobi brackets, are introduced. They turn out to be equivalent to generalized Lie…
In this paper we introduce the iterations $\phi^k_1(t)$ of the Jacob's ladder. It is proved, for example, that the mean-value of the product $$Z^2[\phi^n_1(t)]Z^2[\phi^{n-1}(t)]... Z^2[\phi^0_1(t)]$$ over the segment $[T,T+U]$ is…
Let $\mathbf{F}_q$ be a finite field of $q$ elements. For multiplicative characters $\chi_1,\dots, \chi_m$ of $\mathbf{F}_q^\times$, we let $J(\chi_1,\dots, \chi_m)$ denote the Jacobi sum. Nicholas Katz and Zhiyong Zheng showed that for…
The long-standing Gaussian product inequality (GPI) conjecture states that, for any centered $\mathbb{R}^n$-valued Gaussian random vector $(X_1, \dots, X_n)$ and any positive reals $\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha_n$, ${\bf…
We analyze a possible minimal counterexample to the Jacobian Conjecture $P,Q$ with $\gcd(deg(P),deg(Q))=16$ and show that its existence depends only on the existence of solutions for a certain Abel differential equation of the second kind.
