The paper presents an elaboration of some results on Lin's conditions. A new proof of the fact that if densities of independent random variables $\xi_1$ and $\xi_2$ satisfy Lin's condition, the same is true for their product is presented.…

We prove existence and regularity results for weak solutions of non linear elliptic systems with non variational structure satisfying $(p,q)$-growth conditions. In particular we are able to prove higher differentiability results under a…

A sequence of rational points on an algebraic planar curve is said to form an $r$-geometric progression sequence if either the abscissae or the ordinates of these points form a geometric progression sequence with ratio $r$. In this work, we…

We discuss existence results for a quasi-linear elliptic equation of critical Sobolev growth [H. Brezis, L. Nirenberg, Positive solutions of nonlinear elliptic equations involving critical Sobolev exponents, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 36…

We consider Mahler functions $f(z)$ which solve the functional equation $f(z) = \frac{A(z)}{B(z)} f(z^d)$ where $\frac{A(z)}{B(z)}\in \mathbb{Q}(z)$ and $d\ge 2$ is integer. We prove that for any integer $b$ with $|b|\ge 2$ either $f(b)$ is…

We propose a linear independence criterion, and outline an application of it. Down to its simplest case, it aims at solving this problem: given three real numbers, typically as special values of analytic functions, how to prove that the…

Many generalizations of continued fractions, where the reciprocal function has been replaced by a more general function, have been studied, and it is often asked whether such generalized expansions can have nice properties. For instance, we…

Let $\{u_n\}_n$ be a non-degenerate linear recurrence sequence of integers with Binet's formula given by $u_n= \sum_{i=1}^{m} P_i(n)\alpha_i^n.$ Assume $\max_i \vert \alpha_i \vert >1$. In 1977, Loxton and Van der Poorten conjectured that…

For any family of elliptic curves over the rational numbers with fixed $j$-invariant, we prove that the existence of a long sequence of rational points whose $x$-coordinates form a non-trivial arithmetic progression implies that the…

There are numerous ways to represent real numbers. We may use, e.g., Cauchy sequences, Dedekind cuts, numerical base-10 expansions, numerical base-2 expansions and continued fractions. If we work with full Turing computability, all these…

For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…

The present paper is devoted to the study of classes of mappings with non--bounded characteristics of quasiconformality. It is proved that the normal families of mappings distorting the families of mappings in ${\Bbb R}^n$ by special way,…

In a recent paper of Feng and Sidorov they show that for $\beta\in(1,\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})$ the set of $\beta$-expansions grows exponentially for every $x\in(0,\frac{1}{\beta-1})$. In this paper we study this growth rate further. We also…

We simulate a growth model with restricted surface relaxation process in d=1 and d=2, where d is the dimensionality of a flat substrate. In this model, each particle can relax on the surface to a local minimum, as the Edwards-Wilkinson…

It is well known for an irreducible free group automorphism that its growth rate is equal to the minimal Lipschitz displacement of its action on Culler-Vogtmann space. This follows as a consequence of the existence of train track…

Proving super-polynomial lower bounds on the size of proofs of unsatisfiability of Boolean formulas using resolution over parities is an outstanding problem that has received a lot of attention after its introduction by Raz and Tzamaret…

We associate in a canonical way a substitution to any abstract numeration system built on a regular language. In relationship with the growth order of the letters, we define the notion of two independent substitutions. Our main result is…

We establish partial regularity result for vector-valued solutions to second order elliptic system in divergence form. The coefficients safisfies Dini condition respect to $(x,u)$ with growth order lager than 2. We prove $C^1$-regularity of…

We provide an upper bound on the uniform exponent of approximation to a triple (xi, xi^2, xi^3) by rational numbers with the same denominator, valid for any transcendental real number xi. This upper bound refines a previous result of…

We show how one can use Hermite-Pad\'{e} approximation and little $q$-Jacobi polynomials to construct rational approximants for $\zeta_q(2)$. These numbers are $q$-analogues of the well known $\zeta(2)$. Here $q=\frac{1}{p}$, with $p$ an…
