Let K be a field of positive characteristic. When V is a linear variety in K^n and G is a finitely generated subgroup of K^*, we show how to compute the intersection of V and G^n effectively using heights. We calculate all the estimates…
Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a complete nonsingular curve $C$ over an arbitrary field $k$. The main result of this paper states that a morphism $\phi:{\mathbb P}^N_K\to{\mathbb P}^N_K$ is isotrivial if and only if it has potential…
Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over the finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$ and suppose $W$ and $\widetilde{W}$ are subspaces of $V$. Two linear transformations $T:W\to V$ and $\widetilde{T}:\widetilde{W}\to V$ are said to be similar…
Let \lambda be a partition of a positive integer n. Let C be a symmetric rigid tensor category over a field k of characteristic 0 or char(k)>n, and let V be an object of C. In our main result (Theorem 4.3) we introduce a finite set of…
We characterize the diagonalizable subalgebras of End(V), the full ring of linear operators on a vector space V over a field, in a manner that directly generalizes the classical theory of diagonalizable algebras of operators on a…
We investigate extremal problems for hypergraphs satisfying the following density condition. A $3$-uniform hypergraph $H=(V, E)$ is $(d, \eta,P_2)$-dense if for any two subsets of pairs $P$, $Q\subseteq V\times V$ the number of pairs…
For an abelian variety $A$ over a number field $K$, we define the set of Tamagawa torsors of $A$ at a prime $v$ of $K$ to be the set of principal homogeneous spaces of $A$ over the completion $K_v$ of $K$ at $v$ that are split by an…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and let K*/K be a finite extension of algebraic function fields of transcendence degree 2 over k. Let v* be a k-valuation of K* with valuation ring V* and let v be the restriction…
Let F(X) be the set of finite nonempty subsets of a set X. We have found the necessary and sufficient conditions under which for a given function f:F(X)-->R there is an ultrametric on X such that f(A)=diam A for every A\in F(X). For finite…
We call a closed, connected, orientable manifold in one of the categories TOP, PL or DIFF chiral if it does not admit an orientation-reversing automorphism and amphicheiral otherwise. Moreover, we call a manifold strongly chiral if it does…
In this paper we identify QD(A,B), the quasidiagonal classes in KK_1(A,B), in terms of K_*(A) and K_*(B), and we use these results in various applications. Here is our central result. Theorem: Suppose that A is in the category of separable…
Special birational transformations $\Phi:\p^r\da Z$ defined by quadric hypersurfaces are studied by means of the variety of lines $\mathcal L_z\subset\p^{r-1}$ passing through a general point $z\in Z$. Classification results are obtained…
Let $k$ be a field, $V$ be a $k$-vector space and $X\subset V$ an algebraic irreducible subvariety. We say that a function $f:X(k) \to k$ is weakly linear if its restriction to any two-dimensional linear subspace $W$ of $V$ contained in $X$…
Let (A,B) and (C,D) denote Leonard pairs on V. We say these pairs are adjacent whenever each basis for V which is standard for (A,B) (resp. (C,D)) is split for (C,D) (resp. (A,B)). Our main results are as follows: Theorem 1. There exists at…
A finite-dimensional algebra $A$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ is called periodic if it is periodic under the action of the syzygy operator in the category of $A-A-$ bimodules. The periodic algebras are self-injective and occur…
A digraph $D=(V, A)$ has a good pair at a vertex $r$ if $D$ has a pair of arc-disjoint in- and out-branchings rooted at $r$. Let $T$ be a digraph with $t$ vertices $u_1,\dots , u_t$ and let $H_1,\dots H_t$ be digraphs such that $H_i$ has…
Let $V$ be a vector space of rectangular $n\times k$ matrices annihilating the Cullis' determinant. We show that $\dim(V) \le (n-1)k$, extending Dieudonn{\'{e}}'s result on the dimension of vector spaces of square matrices annihilating the…
Rigidity results are obtained for Riemannian $d$-manifolds with $\sec \geqslant 1$ and spherical rank at least $d-2>0$. Conjecturally, all such manifolds are locally isometric to a round sphere or complex projective space with the…
In this note, we find a sharp bound for the minimal number (or in general, indexing set) of subspaces of a fixed (finite) codimension needed to cover any vector space V over any field. If V is a finite set, this is related to the problem of…
In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for an even order three dimensional strongly symmetric circulant tensor to be positive semi-definite. In some cases, we show that this condition is also sufficient for this tensor…
