We show that there exists a bounded pattern of m consecutive primes for any m>0, that means a tuple H_m of m distinct non-negative integers h_i (i=1,2,...m) such that its translations contain arbitrarily long (finite) arithmetic…

We call a hamiltonian N-space \emph{primary} if its moment map is onto a single coadjoint orbit. The question has long been open whether such spaces always split as (homogeneous) x (trivial), as an analogy with representation theory might…

Assume you have a pizza consisting of four ingredients (e.g., bread, tomatoes, cheese and olives) that you want to share with your friend. You want to do this fairly, meaning that you and your friend should get the same amount of each…

It has been conjectured by Eisenbud, Green and Harris that if $I$ is a homogeneous ideal in $k[x_1,...,x_n]$ containing a regular sequence $f_1,...,f_n$ of degrees $\deg(f_i)=a_i$, where $2\leq a_1\leq ... \leq a_n$, then there is a…

Given a convex set and an interior point close to the boundary, we prove the existence of a supporting hyperplane whose distance to the point is controlled, in a dimensionally quantified way, by the thickness of the convex set in the…

If A is an n \times n matrix over a ring R satisfying the polynomial identity [x,y][u,v]=0, then an invariant Cayley-Hamilton identity of the form \Sigma A^{i}c_{i,j}A^{j}=0 with c_{i,j}\in R and c_{n,n}=(n!)^2 holds for A.

The {\em overlap number} of a finite $(d+1)$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is defined as the largest constant $c(H)\in (0,1]$ such that no matter how we map the vertices of $H$ into $\R^d$, there is a point covered by at least a $c(H)$-fraction of…

We prove that in any strictly convex symmetric cone $\Omega$ there exists a non empty locus where the WDVV equation is satisfied (i.e. there exists a hyperplane being a Frobenius manifold). This result holds over any real division algebra…

Let M be a (bounded or not) domain of C^n which is complete with respect to a K\"ahler metric, or more generally, a complete K\"ahler manifold with trivial canonical bundle. Let f be a linearly nondegenerate meromorphic map from M to the…

Let $n \geqslant 4$. In this article, we will determine the asymptotic behaviour of the size of the set $M(B)$ of integral points $(a_{0}:... :a_{n})$ on the hyperplane $\sum_{i=0}^{n}X_{i}=0$ in $\mathbf{P}^{n}$ such that $a_{i}$ is…

Given a $C^1$ planes distribution $P_T$ on all ${\mathbb R}^m$ we consider {\em horizontal $\alpha$-harmonic maps}, $\alpha\ge 1/2$, with respect to such a distribution. These are maps $u\in H^{\alpha}({{\mathbb R}}^k,{{\mathbb R}}^m)$…

We derive exact expressions for the probabilities that partly random hyperplanes separate two Euclidean balls. The probability that a fully random hyperplane separates two balls turns out to be significantly smaller than the corresponding…

We study the fine-grained uniform convergence behavior of halfspaces beyond worst-case VC bounds. For inhomogeneous halfspaces in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d\ge 2$, we show that standard first-order VC bounds are essentially tight: even…

In this article, we give a counterexample to the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for non-singular quasi-projective varieties. A classical result of Hamm-L\^{e} shows that Lefschetz hyperplane theorem can hold for hyperplanes in general…

The purpose of this paper has twofold. The first is to prove a unicity theorem for meromorphic mappings of a complete K\"{a}hler manifold M in P^n(C) sharing few hypersurfaces. The second is to give a unicity theorem for the case of…

A system of sets forms an {\em $m$-fold covering} of a set $X$ if every point of $X$ belongs to at least $m$ of its members. A $1$-fold covering is called a {\em covering}. The problem of splitting multiple coverings into several coverings…

Let $M$ be a complete K\"{a}hler manifold, whose universal covering is biholomorphic to a ball $\mathbb B^m(R_0)$ in $\mathbb C^m$ ($0<R_0\le +\infty$). In this article, we will show that if three meromorphic mappings $f^1,f^2,f^3$ of $M$…

The coexistence of effects in a certain class of generalized probability theories is investigated. The effect space corresponding to an even-sided regular polygon state space has a central hyperplane that contains all the nontrivial…

Consider in a real Hilbert space $H$ the differential equation (inclusion) $(E)$: $p(t)u^{\prime \prime}(t)+q(t)u^{\prime}(t)\in Au(t)+f(t)$ for a.a. $t>0$, with the condition $(B)$: $u(0)=x \in \overline{D(A)}$, where $A\colon D(A)\subset…

Equipartition theory, beginning with the classical ham sandwich theorem, seeks the fair division of finite point sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ by the full-dimensional regions determined by a prescribed geometric dissection of $\mathbb{R}^d$. Here…
