A (partial) Latin square is a table of multiplication of a (partial) quasigroup. Multiplication of a (partial) quasigroup may be considered as a set of triples. We give a necessary and sufficient condition when a set of triples is a…
In previous papers it was shown that the left and right O-module structure of the jet bundles on the projective line differed. In this paper we show that similar statements hold for jet bundles on projective space in any dimension. We also…
We study properties of (bi-infinite) arrays having all adjacent $k\times k$ adjacent minors equal to one. If we further add the condition that all adjacent $(k-1)\times (k-1)$ minors be nonzero, then these arrays are necessarily of rank…
We propose a new exact approach for solving integer linear programming (ILP) problems which we will call projective splitting algorithms (PSAs). Unlike classical methods for solving ILP problems, PSAs conduct the search for the optimal…
We investigate MacNeish's conjecture (known to be false in general) in the setting of what we call "transitive" Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares (MOLS). When we restrict our attention to "simply transitive" MOLS, we find that the…
We describe the necessary and sufficient numerical condition when an element $X$ in the Picard group of $K(2)$-local category at prime $p \geqslant 5$ is of finite type, i.e., $\pi_kX$ is finitely generated as a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-module for…
A fake projective plane is a smooth complex surface which is not the complex projective plane but has the same Betti numbers as the complex projective plane. The first example of such a surface was constructed by David Mumford in 1979 using…
The purpose of this paper is to prove the finiteness theorems for meromorphic mappings of a complete connected K\"{a}hler manifold into projective space sharing few hyperplanes in subgeneral position without counting multiplicity, where all…
Two Latin squares $L=[l(i,j)]$ and $M=[m(i,j)]$, of even order $n$ with entries $\{0,1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$, are said to be nearly orthogonal if the superimposition of $L$ on $M$ yields an $n\times n$ array $A=[(l(i,j),m(i,j))]$ in which each…
We construct finite-dimensional projective representations of the mapping class groups of compact connected oriented surfaces having one boundary component using stated skein algebras.
The $k$-ellipse is the plane algebraic curve consisting of all points whose sum of distances from $k$ given points is a fixed number. The polynomial equation defining the $k$-ellipse has degree $2^k$ if $k$ is odd and degree…
The aim of this article is to show that systems of linear partial differential equations on filtered manifolds, which are of weighted finite type, can be canonically rewritten as first order systems of a certain type. This leads immediately…
We establish an elementary, but rather striking pattern concerning the quartic residues of primes $p$ that are congruent to 5 modulo 8. Let $g$ be a generator of the multiplicative group of $\mathbb Z_p$ and let $M$ be the $4\times 4$…
Motzkin paths consist of up-steps, down-steps, level-steps, and never go below the $x$-axis. They return to the $x$-axis at the end. The concept of skew Dyck path \cite{Deutsch-italy} is transferred to skew Motzkin paths, namely, a left…
Projective clustering is a problem with both theoretical and practical importance and has received a great deal of attentions in recent years. Given a set of points $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ space, projective clustering is to find a set…
We distinguish two kinds of piecewise linear functions and provide an interesting representation for a piecewise linear function between two normed spaces. Based on such a representation, we study a fully piecewise linear vector…
Following our previous work, we develop an algorithm to compute a presentation of the fundamental group of certain partial compactifications of the complement of a complex arrangement of lines in the projective plane. It applies, in…
Surfaces of amplitude 1 in ordinary projective space are of general type, but this need not be the case in weighted projective spaces. Indeed, there are 4 classes of quasi-smooth weighted hypersurfaces in $\mathbf{P}(1,2,a,b)$ of amplitude…
For any integer $k \geq 2$, let $\{Q_{n}^{(k)} \}_{n \geq -(k-2)}$ denote the $k$-generalized Pell-Lucas sequence which starts with $0, \dots ,2,2$($k$ terms) where each next term is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we…
Given a canonical algebraically integrable foliation on a klt projective variety, we study the variation of the ample models of the associated adjoint foliated structures with respect to the parameter. When the foliation is of general type,…
