Let $D$ be a $k$-regular bipartite tournament on $n$ vertices. We show that, for every $p$ with $2 \le p \le n/2-2$, $D$ has a cycle $C$ of length $2p$ such that $D \setminus C$ is hamiltonian unless $D$ is isomorphic to the special digraph…
We give a counterexample to the proof in the literature [K-Theory 25 (2002), 215-231] of the existence of linear representatives of higher Chow groups of number fields.
We prove the equidistribution of some cycles of S-arithmetic nature that are related to RM points and Stark-Heegner points. We also prove the equidistribution of Picard orbits of ATR cycles as defined by Darmon, Rotger and Zhao.
In this note we extend a theorem from [13] about uniform circle random coverings
A famous result in game theory known as Zermelo's theorem says that "in chess either White can force a win, or Black can force a win, or both sides can force at least a draw". The present paper extends this result to the class of all…
In this note, we prove a conjecture proposed by Tao Zhang, Shuxing Li, Tao Feng and Gennian Ge, IEEE Transaction on Information Theory, vol. 60, no. 5, May 2014. This conjecture is about the cross correlation distribution of ternary…
We offer some theorems, mainly of finiteness, for certain patterns in elliptical billiards, related to periodic trajectories. For instance, if two players hit a ball at a given position and with directions forming a fixed angle in…
In this short note we prove that every tournament contains the $k$-th power of a directed path of linear length. This improves upon recent results of Yuster and of Gir\~ao. We also give a complete solution for this problem when $k=2$,…
This paper has a twofold scope. The first one is to clarify and put in evidence the isomorphic character of two theories developed in quite different fields: on one side, threshold logic, on the other side, simple games. One of the main…
We present a new problem called the incomplete Traveling Tournament problem, which introduces the well known Traveling Tournament Problem into the realm of incomplete round-robin tournaments. We focus on the case where teams can face each…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due to a crucial error in the proof of Thm.1
In a recent paper (Appl. Math. Comput. 215, 1622--1645, 2009), the authors proposed a method of summation of some slowly convergent series. The purpose of this note is to give more theoretical analysis for this transformation, including the…
In this note, we highlight the impact of the paper G. H. Hardy, A theorem concerning Fourier transforms, J. Lond. Math. Soc. (1) 8 (1933), 227--231 in the community of harmonic analysis in the last 90 years, reviewing, on the one hand, the…
In this new version, we correct some typos. For the readers' convenience, we also added some footnotes and more details for certain lemmas and theorems.
In the paper [Hong-Shi Zong, Wei-Min Sun, Phys. Lett. B 640 (2006) 196], the authors claim that our proof of the inconsistency of the ladder approximation to QCD [Phys. Lett. B 611 (2005) 129] was incorrect. However, their claim is based on…
We introduce a "high probability" framework for repeated games with incomplete information. In our non-equilibrium setting, players aim to guarantee a certain payoff with high probability, rather than in expected value. We provide a high…
In Zeng et al. [Fluct. Noise Lett. 7 (2007) L439--L447] the analysis of the lowest unique positive integer game is simplified by some reasonable assumptions that make the problem tractable for arbitrary numbers of players. However, here we…
We give a short analysis of the \emph{transversal achievement game} on a square grid due to M. Erickson (2010).

A number of authors have recently pointed out inconsistencies of results obtained with the Huang-Yang multipolar pseudo-potential for low-energy scattering [K. Huang and K. C. Yang, Phys. Rev. A, v 105, 767 (1957); later revised in K.…
