We establish a new description of the Schur-Agler norm of a holomorphic function on the polydisc as the solution of a convex optimization problem. Consequences of this description are explored both from a theoretical and from a practical…

We extend recent work of Gurel-Gurevich--Jerison--Nachmias (2020) and Bou-Rabee--Gwynne (2024) by showing that as the mesh of our lattice tends to $0$, we have a polynomial rate of convergence for the Dirichlet problem on orthodiagonal maps…

We consider the problem of characterizing the convex hull of the graph of a bilinear function $f$ on the $n$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^n$. Extended formulations for this convex hull are obtained by taking subsets of the facets of the…

This paper is a survey of plurisubharmonic theory where the usual polynomial ring is replaced by a polynomial ring $\mathcal P^S(\mathbb C^n)$ where the $m$-th degree polynomials have exponents restricted to $mS$, where $S\subseteq \mathbb…

We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…

For a d-dimensional polyhedral complex P, the dimension of the space of piecewise polynomial functions (splines) on P of smoothness r and degree k is given, for k sufficiently large, by a polynomial f(P,r,k) of degree d. When d=2 and P is…

We prove discrete versions of the first and second Weber inequalities on $\boldsymbol{H}(\mathbf{curl})\cap\boldsymbol{H}(\mathrm{div}_{\eta})$-like hybrid spaces spanned by polynomials attached to the faces and to the cells of a polyhedral…

We study the problem of approximating the value of the matching polynomial on graphs with edge parameter $\gamma$, where $\gamma$ takes arbitrary values in the complex plane. When $\gamma$ is a positive real, Jerrum and Sinclair showed that…

The space of polynomials in two real variables with values in a 2-dimensional irreducible module of a dihedral group is studied as a standard module for Dunkl operators. The one-parameter case is considered (omitting the two-parameter case…

In this paper we study variations of the Hopf theorem concerning continuous maps $f$ of a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$. We investigate the case when $M$ is a closed convex $n$-dimensional surface and…

In this paper, we study the family ${\mathcal C}_{H}^0$ of sense-preserving complex-valued harmonic functions $f$ that are normalized close-to-convex functions on the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with $f_{\bar{z}}(0)=0$. We derive a…

The complexity of graph homomorphisms has been a subject of intense study [11, 12, 4, 42, 21, 17, 6, 20]. The partition function $Z_{\mathbf A}(\cdot)$ of graph homomorphism is defined by a symmetric matrix $\mathbf A$ over $\mathbb C$. We…

A graph polynomial $P$ is weakly distinguishing if for almost all finite graphs $G$ there is a finite graph $H$ that is not isomorphic to $G$ with $P(G)=P(H)$. It is weakly distinguishing on a graph property $\mathcal{C}$ if for almost all…

Let $X, Y$ be two complex manifolds, let $D\subset X,$ $ G\subset Y$ be two nonempty open sets, let $A$ (resp. $B$) be an open subset of $\partial D$ (resp. $\partial G$), and let $W$ be the 2-fold cross $((D\cup A)\times B)\cup…

Let $F$ be a family of pseudo-disks in the plane, and $P$ be a finite subset of $F$. Consider the hypergraph $H(P,F)$ whose vertices are the pseudo-disks in $P$ and the edges are all subsets of $P$ of the form $\{D \in P \mid D \cap S \neq…

We show that if a polynomial $f\in \mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is nonnegative on a closed basic semialgebraic set $X=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:g_1(x)\ge 0,\ldots,g_r (x)\ge 0\}$, where $g_1,\ldots,g_r\in\mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, then $f$ can be…

We study the computation of local approximations of invariant manifolds of parabolic fixed points and parabolic periodic orbits of periodic vector fields. If the dimension of these manifolds is two or greater, in general, it is not possible…

Under suitable conditions on the range of the Gauss map of a complete submanifold of Euclidean space with parallel mean curvature, we construct a strongly subharmonic function and derive a-priori estimates for the harmonic Gauss map. The…

An old theorem of Weil and Kodaira says that for a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ there is a closed logarithmic $1$-form with residue divisor $D$ if and only if $D$ is homologous to zero in $H_{2n-2}(X,\mathbb C)$. In the first part of this…

We study the rational approximation properties of special manifolds defined by a set of polynomials with rational coefficients. Mostly we will assume the case of all polynomials to depend on only one variable. In this case the manifold can…
