We consider the recursion $X_{n+1}=\sum_{i=0}^n \epsilon_{n,i}X_{n-i}$, where $\epsilon_{n,i}$ are i.i.d. (Bernoulli) random variables taking values in $\{-1,1\}$, and $X_0=1$, $X_{-j}=0$ for $j>0$. We prove that almost surely, $n^{-1}\log…
Let $Q(x,y,z)$ be an integral quadratic form with determinant coprime to some modulus $q$. We show that $q\mid Q$ for some non-zero integer vector $(x,y,z)$ of length $O(q^{5/8+\varepsilon})$, for any fixed $\varepsilon>0$. Without the…
Euler gave recipes for converting alternating series of two types, I and II, into equivalent continued fractions, i.e., ones whose convergents equal the partial sums. A condition we prove for irrationality of a continued fraction then…
The inverse problem for representation functions takes as input a triple (X,f,L), where X is a countable semigroup, f : X --> N_0 \cup {\infty} a function, L : a_1 x_1 + ... + a_h x_h an X-linear form and asks for a subset A \subseteq X…
We derive a number of equivalent criterions for the variable exponent Hardy type inequality |\frac{1}{x}\int_{0}^{x}f(t)dt|_{L^{p(.)}(0,1)}\leq C|f|_{L^{p(.)}(0,1)}; f\geq 0. to hold, whenever the exponent $p:(0,1)\to (1,\infty)$ is…
We study growth rates for strongly continuous semigroups. We prove that a growth rate for the resolvent on imaginary lines implies a corresponding growth rate for the semigroup if either the underlying space is a Hilbert space, or the…
This paper introduces new variational methods centered on the direct application of a profile decomposition theorem for bounded sequences in Sobolev spaces. We employ these methods to prove the existence of ground state solutions for a…
Given an alphabet $S$, we consider the size of the subsets of the full sequence space $S^{\rm {\bf Z}}$ determined by the additional restriction that $x_i\not=x_{i+f(n)},\ i\in {\rm {\bf Z}},\ n\in {\rm {\bf N}}.$ Here $f$ is a positive,…
In this paper we study the existence of bound states of the following class of quasilinear problems, \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} &-\varepsilon ^p\Delta_pu+V(x)u^{p-1}=f(u)+u^{p^\ast -1},\ u>0,\ \text{in}\ \mathbb{R}^{N}, &\lim…
Most of lipschitz regularity results for nonlinear strictly elliptic equations are obtained for a suitable growth power of the nonlinearity with respect to the gradient variable (subquadratic for instance). For equations with superquadratic…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective Fano variety over the complex numbers. We study the moduli spaces of rational curves on $X$ using the perspective of Manin's Conjecture. In particular, we bound the dimension and number of components of spaces…
Standard rational expectations models with an occasionally binding zero lower bound constraint either admit no solutions (incoherence) or multiple solutions (incompleteness). This paper shows that deviations from full-information rational…
Various authors, including McNew, Nathanson and O'Bryant, have recently studied the maximal asymptotic density of a geometric progression free sequence of positive integers. In this paper we prove the existence of geometric progression free…
We consider the real number $\sigma$ with continued fraction expansion $[a_0, a_1, a_2,\ldots] = [1,2,1,4,1,2,1,8,1,2,1,4,1,2,1,16,\ldots]$, where $a_i$ is the largest power of $2$ dividing $i+1$. We compute the irrationality measure of…
The small and large size behavior of stationary solutions to the fragmentation equation with size diffusion is investigated. It is shown that these solutions behave like stretched exponentials for large sizes, the exponent in the…
We give a general asymptotic formula for the growth rate of the number of indecomposable summands in the tensor powers of representations of finite groups, over a field of arbitrary characteristic. In characteristic zero we obtain…
We prove an existence result for a quasilinear elliptic equation satisfying natural growth conditions. As a consequence, we deduce an existence result for a quasilinear elliptic equation containing a singular drift. A key tool, in the…
The ordinary continued fractions expansion of a real number is based on the Euclidean division. Variants of the latter yield variants of the former, all encompassed by a more general Dynamical Systems framework. For all these variants the…
The asymptotic behaviour is studied of exponentially bounded sequences of codimensions of identities of algebras with unity. A series of algebras is constructed for which the base of the exponential increases by exactly one when an outer…
This note presents an analytic technique for proving the linear independence of certain small subsets of real numbers over the rational numbers. The applications of this test produce simple linear independence proofs for the subsets of…
