One-loop counterterms are computed in the first order formalism for the Einstein-Hilbert action with a minimally coupled scalar field using the background field method and the heat kernel technique. The {\em off-shell} divergent piece in…
Certain solvable extensions of $H$-type groups provide noncompact counterexamples to the so-called Lichnerowicz conjecture, which asserted that ``harmonic'' Riemannian spaces must be rank 1 symmetric spaces.
Harmonic maps are nonlinear extensions of harmonic functions. They are critical points of natural energy functionals between Riemannian manifolds. Such type of problems appear in Physics, Geometry of Finance and the study of regularity and…
Using the property of being completely Baire, countable dense homogeneity and the perfect set property we will be able, under Martin's Axiom for countable posets, to distinguish non-principal ultrafilters on $\omega$ up to homeomorphism.…
Generalizing the concept of a perfect number is a Zumkeller or integer perfect number that was introduced by Zumkeller in 2003. The positive integer $n$ is a Zumkeller number if its divisors can be partitioned into two sets with the same…
In this paper, we provide a combinatorial characterization of the elements of Schur ultrafilters on countable commutative groups. Using this characterization, we construct a free Schur ultrafilter on $\mathbb Z$ that is not infinitary…
In this work, we introduce a symmetric algorithm obtained by the recurrence relation a_{n}^{k}=a_{n-1}^{k}+a_{n}^{k-1}. We point out that this algorithm can be apply to hyperharmonic-, ordinary and incomplete Fibonacci- and Lucas numbers.…
A complex harmonic polynomial is the sum of a complex polynomial and a conjugated complex polynomial, of degrees $n$ and $m$ respectively. Li and Wei (2009) presented a formula for the expected number of zeros of a random harmonic…
Two subsets of $\mathbb{Z}_n$ are said to be homometric if they have the same multiset of pairwise cyclic (i.e., Lee) distances. Homometric subsets necessarily have the same cardinality, say $k$. In this paper, for all positive integers…
We introduce the decomposability spectrum $K_D=\{\lambda \geq \omega| D \text{is} \lambda\text{-decomposable}\}$ of an ultrafilter $D$, and show that Shelah's $\pcf$ theory influences the possible values $K_D$ can take. For example, we show…
Some new results on metric ultraproducts of finite simple groups are presented. Suppose that G is such a group, defined in terms of a non-principal ultrafilter {\omega} on N and a sequence {(G_i)_{i \in N}} of finite simple groups, and that…
Let $X$ be a complete measure space of finite measure. The Lebesgue transform of an integrable function $f$ on $X$ encodes the collection of all the mean-values of $f$ on all measurable subsets of $X$ of positive measure. In the problem of…
A natural integer is called $y$-ultrafriable if none of the prime powers occurring in its canonical decomposition exceed $y$. We investigate the distribution of $y$-ultrafriable integers not exceeding $x$ among arithmetic progressions to…
The aim of this paper is to give natural examples of $\mathbf{\Sigma}_1^1$-complete and $\mathbf{\Pi}_1^1$-complete sets. In the first part, we consider ideals on $\omega$. In particular, we show that the Hindman ideal $\mathcal{H}$ is…
In recent years, several problems regarding the partition regularity of exponential configurations have been studied in the literature, in some cases using the properties of specific ultrafilters. In this paper, we start to lay down the…
For $b>1$ and $\alpha\beta$ a string of two digits in base $b$, let $K_1$ be the subsum of the harmonic series with only those integers having exactly one occurrence of $\alpha\beta$. We obtain a theoretical representation of such $K_1$…
According to Feynman, the universe consists of two parts - the system in which we are interested and the rest of the universe which our measurement process does not reach. Feynman then formulates the density matrix in terms of the…
We are interested in generalizing part of the theory of ultrafilters on omega to larger cardinals. Here we set the scene for further investigations introducing properties of ultrafilters in strong sense dual to being normal.
For $n\ge 3$, let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $R^n$ and $N$ be a compact Riemannian manifold in $R^L$ without boundary. Suppose that $u_n\in W^{1,n}(\Omega,N)$ are the Palais-Smale sequences of the Dirichlet $n$-energy functional and…
A code of the natural numbers is a uniquely-decodable binary code of the natural numbers with non-decreasing codeword lengths, which satisfies Kraft's inequality tightly. We define a natural partial order on the set of codes, and show how…
