We make several new contributions to the study of proper holomorphic mappings between balls. Our results include a degree estimate for rational proper maps, a new gap phenomenon for convex families of arbitrary proper maps, and an…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be unital finite-dimensional complex algebras, each equipped with the unique Hausdorff vector topology. Denote by $\mathrm{Max}(\mathcal{A})=\{\mathcal{M}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{M}_p\}$ and…

We establish common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings using an auxiliary function of two variables. Unlike classical results, our theorems do not assume continuity of the mappings and require completeness…

One can realize higher laminations as positive configurations of points in the affine building. The duality pairings of Fock and Goncharov give pairings between higher laminations for two Langlands dual groups $G$ and $G^{\vee}$. These…

We study the canonical solution of a family of classical $n-vector$ spin models on a generic $d$-dimensional lattice; the couplings between two spins decay as the inverse of their distance raised to the power $\alpha$, with $\alpha<d$. The…

This paper is part of a program to understand the parameter spaces of dynamical systems generated by meromorphic functions with finitely many singular values. We give a full description of the parameter space for a specific family based on…

This paper studies high-dimensional canonical correlation analysis (CCA) with an emphasis on the vectors that define canonical variables. The paper shows that when two dimensions of data grow to infinity jointly and proportionally, the…

In this paper we describe all differentiable functions $\varphi,\psi\colon E\to\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the functional-differential equation \begin{equation*} [\varphi(y) - \varphi(x)]\psi '\bigl(h(x,y)\bigr) = [\psi(y) - \psi(x)]\varphi…

We consider the operation of intersecting with a locally principal Cartier divisor (i.e., a Cartier divisor which is principal on some neighborhood of its support). We describe this operation explicitly on the level of cycles and rational…

Given a dominant rational self-map on a projective variety over a number field, we can define the arithmetic degree at a rational point. It is known that the arithmetic degree at any point is less than or equal to the first dynamical…

It was shown by A. Beauville that if the canonical map $\varphi_{|K_M|}$ of a complex smooth projective surface $M$ is generically finite, then ${\rm deg}(\varphi_{|K_M|})\leq 36$. The first example of a surface with canonical degree 36 was…

In this paper we establish lower bounds on several expressions dependent on functions $\varphi(n)$, $\psi(n)$ and $\sigma(n)$.

Denote $\Sigma_n$ and $Q_n$ the set of all $n \times n$ symmetric and skew-symmetric matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$, respectively, where $char(\mathbb{F})\neq 2$ and $\lvert \mathbb{F} \rvert \geq n^2+1$. A characterization of…

Pairwise comparison matrices are widely used in Multicriteria Decision Making. This article applies incomplete pairwise comparison matrices in the area of sport tournaments, namely proposing alternative rankings for the 2010 Chess Olympiad…

In this survey paper we review classical results and recent progress about a certain topic in the spectral theory of two-dimensional canonical systems. Namely, we consider the questions whether the spectrum $\sigma$ is discrete, and if it…

We express the rational homotopy type of the mapping spaces $\mathrm{Map}^h(\mathsf D_m,\mathsf D_n^{\mathbb Q})$ of the little discs operads in terms of graph complexes. Using known facts about the graph homology this allows us to compute…

In this note, we discuss families of orbifolds underlying 6D SCFT F-theory models and find a novel pairing structure in the SCFT landscape. Inspection of the rational functions defining models with a common F-theory endpoint leads us to…

We prove that for each positive integer $N$ the set of smooth, zero degree maps $\psi\colon\mathbb{S}^2\to \mathbb{S}^2$ which have the following three properties: (1) there is a unique minimizing harmonic map $u\colon \mathbb{B}^3\to…

We prove that a quasiisometric map between rank one symmetric spaces is within bounded distance from a unique harmonic map. In particular, this completes the proof of the Schoen-Li-Wang conjecture.

Let $L$ be a simply-connected simple connected algebraic group over a number field $F$, and $H$ be a semisimple absolutely maximal connected $F$-subgroup of $L$. Under a cohomological condition, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number…
