In this paper, we investigate the converse of the Tan-Xu theorem, which states that the naturally reductive property of a Riemannian metric is inherited by a naturally reductive $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$-metric, and we show that, under certain…
All Lie algebras and representations will be assumed to be finite dimensional over the complex numbers. Let $V(m)$ be the irreducible $\sl(2)$-module with highest weight $m\geq 1$ and consider the perfect Lie algebra $\g=\sl(2)\ltimes…
One can associate to any bivariate polynomial P(X,Y) its Newton polygon. This is the convex hull of the points (i,j) such that the monomial X^i Y^j appears in P with a nonzero coefficient. We conjecture that when P is expressed as a sum of…
Conformally recurrent pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of dimension n>4 are investigated. The Weyl tensor is represented as a Kulkarni-Nomizu product. If the square of the Weyl tensor is nonzero, a covariantly constant symmetric tensor is…
We study global convex solutions of the Monge-Amp\`ere equation \[ \det D^2 u = \mu \quad \text{in } \mathbb{R}^n, \] where $\mu \not\equiv 0$ is a nonnegative locally finite periodic Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove a…
Suppose that $\ell \geq 5$ is prime. For a positive integer $N$ with $4 \mid N$, previous works studied properties of half-integral weight modular forms on $\Gamma_0(N)$ which are supported on finitely many square classes modulo $\ell$, in…
The denominator formula for the Monster Lie algebra is the product expansion for the modular function $j(z)-j(\tau)$ in terms of the Hecke system of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-modular functions $j_n(\tau)$. This formula can be…
We study a conformally coupled scalar-tensor theory with a quartic potential possessing local conformal symmetry up to a boundary term. We show that requiring the restoration of the full local conformal symmetry fixes the counterterms that…
The main result of this paper is an instance of the conjecture made by Gouvea and Mazur (Math. Res. Lett., 1995) which asserts that for certain values of r the space of r-overconvergent p-adic modular forms of tame level N and weight k…
We study a canonical basis for spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weights 12, 16, 18, 20, 22, and 26 on the full modular group. We prove a relation between the Fourier coefficients of modular forms in this canonical basis and a…
For all odd positive integers $m$, we construct $\mu$-homogeneous solutions to the thin obstacle problem in $\mathbb{R}^3,$ with $\mu\in(m,m+1)$. For $m$ large, $\mu-m$ converges to $1$, so $\mu\neq m+\tfrac 1 2$. The restriction to odd…
In the case of Siegel modular forms of degree $n$, we prove that, for almost all prime ideals $\frak{p}$ in any ring of algebraic integers, mod $\frak{p}^m$ cusp forms are congruent to true cusp forms of the same weight. As an application…
We consider T(x), a tensor of arbitrary rank that is symmetric in all of its indices and conserved in the sense that the divergence on any one index vanishes. Our conjecture is that all integral moments of this tensor will vanish if the…
We prove $m$-dimensional symmetry results, that we call $m$-Liouville theorems, for stable and monotone solutions of the following nonuniformly elliptic equation \begin{eqnarray*}\label{mainequ} - div(\gamma(\mathbf x') \nabla u(\mathbf x))…
Let $S_k(m):=\sum_{j=1}^{m-1}j^k$ denote a power sum. In 2011, Kellner proposed the conjecture that for $m>3$ the ratio $S_k(m+1)/S_k(m)$ is never an integer, or, equivalently, that for any positive integer $a$, the equation $aS_k(m)=m^k$…
We explore the modularity of the continued fractions $I(\tau), J(\tau), T_1(\tau), T_2(\tau)$ and $U(\tau)=I(\tau)/J(\tau)$ of order $10$, where $I(\tau)$ and $J(\tau)$ are introduced by Rajkhowa and Saikia, which are special cases of…
The realization of a standard Adaptive Finite Element Method (AFEM) preserves the mesh conformity by performing a completion step in the refinement loop: in addition to elements marked for refinement due to their contribution to the global…
We present in a full analytic form the partial widths for the lepton flavour violating decays $\mu^\pm \to e^\pm e^+ e^-$ and $\tau^\pm \to \ell^\pm \ell'^{+} \ell'^{-}$, with $\ell,\ell'=\mu,e$, mediated by neutrino oscillations in the…
Recently, Garthwaite-Penniston have shown that the coefficients of Ramanujan's mock theta function $\omega$ satisfy infinitely many congruences of Ramanujan-type. In this work we give the first explicit examples of congruences for…
We define bilinear functionals of vector fields and differential forms, the densities of which yield the metric and Einstein tensors on even-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We generalise these concepts in non-commutative geometry and, in…
