For k <= n, let E(2n,k) be the sum of all multiple zeta values with even arguments whose weight is 2n and whose depth is k. Of course E(2n,1) is the value of the Riemann zeta function at 2n, and it is well known that E(2n,2) = (3/4)E(2n,1).…

In this paper we provide the classification of positive solutions to the critical $p-$Laplace equation on $\mathbb{R}^n$, for $1<p<n$, possibly having infinite energy. If $n=2$, or if $n=3$ and $\frac 32<p<2$ we prove rigidity without any…

We study the top Lyapunov exponent of a product of random $2 \times 2$ matrices appearing in the analysis of several statistical mechanical models with disorder, extending a previous treatment of the critical case (Giacomin and Greenblatt,…

We show that if $A$ is a subset of a group of prime order $p$ such that $|2A|<2.7652|A|$ and $|A|<1.25\cdot10^{-6}p$, then $A$ is contained in an arithmetic progression with at most $|2A|-|A|+1$ terms, and $2A$ contains an arithmetic…

For any integer $k>2$, the infinite $k$-bonacci word $W^{(k)}$, on the infinite alphabet is defined as the fixed point of the morphism $\varphi_k:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}^2 \cup \mathbb{N}$, where \begin{equation*} \varphi_k(ki+j) =…

A \emph{power} is a word of the form $\underbrace{uu...u}_{k \; \text{times}}$, where $u$ is a word and $k$ is a positive integer; the power is also called a {\em $k$-power} and $k$ is its {\em exponent}. We prove that for any $k \ge 2$,…

Any finite word $w$ of length $n$ contains at most $n+1$ distinct palindromic factors. If the bound $n+1$ is reached, the word $w$ is called rich. The number of rich words of length $n$ over an alphabet of cardinality $q$ is denoted…

We investigate in this paper the Cauchy problem of the one-dimensional wave equation with space-dependent damping of the form $\mu_0(1+x^2)^{-1/2}$, where $\mu_0>0$, and time derivative nonlinearity. We establish global existence of mild…

We obtain global well-posedness, scattering, and global $L^{\frac{2(n+2)}{n-2}}_{t,x}$ spacetime bounds for energy-space solutions to the energy-critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in $\R_t\times \R^n_x$, $n\geq 5$.

The phase diagram of a system with two order parameters, with ${\it n_1}$ and $n_2$ components, respectively, contains two phases, in which these order parameters are non-zero. Experimentally and numerically, these phases are often…

A subset A of {0,1,...,n} is said to be a 2-additive basis for {1,2,...,n} if each j in {1,2,...,n} can be written as j=x+y, x,y in A, x<=y. If we pick each integer in {0,1,...,n} independently with probability p=p_n tending to 0, thus…

We show that for any two distinct words $ s_1, s_2 $ over an arbitrary alphabets, there exists a deterministic finite automaton with $ O(\log^2 n) $ states that accepts $ s_1 $ and rejects $ s_2 $. This improves the previous upper bound of…

Critical exponents for the 3D O(n)-symmetric model with n > 3 are estimated on the base of six-loop renormalization-group (RG) expansions. A simple Pade-Borel technique is used for the resummation of the RG series and the Pade approximants…

Let $ES_{\ell}(n)$ be the minimum $N$ such that every $N$-element point set in the plane contains either $\ell$ collinear members or $n$ points in convex position. We prove that there is a constant $C>0$ such that, for each $\ell, n \ge 3$,…

We study infinite ternary words that contain few distinct palindromes. In particular, we classify such words according to their critical exponent.

The robustness of the universality class concept of the chaotic transition was investigated by analytically obtaining its critical exponent for a wide class of maps. In particular, we extended the existing one-dimensional chaotic maps,…

We consider the initial value problem for the L^2-critical defocusing Hartree equation in R^n, n \ge 3. We show that the problem is globally well posed in H^s(R^n) when 1>s> \frac{2(n-2)}{3n-4}$. We use the "I-method" combined with a local…

According to Suk's breakthrough result on the Erdos-Szekeres problem, any point set in general position in the plane, which has no $n$ elements that form the vertex set of a convex $n$-gon, has at most $2^{n+O\left({n^{2/3}\log n}\right)}$…

We show that the largest prime factor of $n^2+1$ is infinitely often greater than $n^{1.279}$. This improves the result of de la Bret\`eche and Drappeau (2019) who obtained this with $1.2182$ in place of $1.279.$ The main new ingredients in…
