Describing effects of small but finite inertia on suspended particles is a fundamental fluid dynamical problem that has never been solved in full generality. Modern microfluidics has turned this academic problem into a practical challenge…
Cyclic sieving is a well-known phenomenon where certain interesting polynomials, especially $q$-analogues, have useful interpretations related to actions and representations of the cyclic group. We propose a definition of sieving for an…
We provide a heuristic explanation for the emergence of worldsheet fermions in the continuum limit of some matrix models. We also argue that turning on Ramond-Ramond flux confines the fermionic degrees of freedom of the Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz…
We propose the notion of partial resolution of a ring, which is by definition the endomorphism ring of a certain generator of the given ring. We prove that the singularity category of the partial resolution is a quotient of the singularity…
This is a significant revision of the early version of this paper which was posted last December. The speculative section has been removed in light of some recent results of Morita and Kawazumi. Numerous typos have been fixed. The companion…
Consider a Markov chain on the space of rooted real binary trees that randomly removes leaves and reinserts them on a random edge and suitably rescales the lengths of edges. This chain was introduced by David Aldous who conjectured a…
Categorical rings were introduced by Jibladze and Pirashvili in their paper "Third Mac Lane cohomology via categorical rings", Journal of Homotopy and related structures, 2, 2007, 187-216. We call those "2-rings". In these notes we present…
We focus on working on incidence rings, a class of (possibly infinite) matrix rings indexed by ordered sets. Some general properties about them are given, including how they are always the inverse limit of finite matrix rings, giving a…
Ritt studied the functional decomposition of a univariate complex polynomial f into prime (indecomposable) polynomials, f = u_1 o u_2 o ... o u_r. His main achievement was a procedure for obtaining any decomposition of f from any other by…
In calculus, an indefinite integral of a function $f$ is a differentiable function $F$ whose derivative is equal to $f$. In present paper, we generalize this notion of the indefinite integral from the ring of real functions to any ring. The…
Since the famous 1926 paper by Richardson, the relative diffusion of two particles in a turbulent liquid has attracted a lot of interest. The motion of a single particle on the other hand is usually considered not to be especially…
Consider a system of infinitely many Brownian particles on the real line. At any moment, these particles can be ranked from the bottom upward. Each particle moves as a Brownian motion with drift and diffusion coefficients depending on its…
T. Dupuy, E. Katz, J. Rabinoff, D. Zureick-Brown introduced the module of total $p$-differentials for a ring over $Z/p^2Z$. We study the same construction for a ring over $Z_{(p)}$ and prove a regularity criterion. For a local ring, the…
Completing Loo-Keng Hua's approach to the real number system pioneered in 1962, this paper defines arithmetical operations directly on infinite decimals without appealing to any ordering structure. Therefore, the widespread belief that…
This paper gives a new approximation theory for finitely generated modules over commutative Noetherian rings, which unifies two famous approximation theorems; one is due to Auslander and Bridger and the other is due to Auslander and…
The notion of multiplicity of a module first arose as consequence of Hilbert's work on commutative algebra, relating the dimension of rings with the degree of certain polynomials. For noncommutative rings, the notion of multiplicity first…
Since categories are graphs with additional "structure", one should start from fuzzy graphs in order to define a theory of fuzzy categories. Thus is makes sense to introduce categories whose morphisms are associated with a plausibility…
This article has the following aims: (1) Extend the notion of fuchsian singularities (of first kind) to base fields of arbitrary characteristic. (2) Discuss their relationship to mathematical objects of a different nature. (3) Provide a…
Bosons and fermions are often written by elements of other algebras. M. Abe gave a recursive realization of the boson by formal infinite sums of the canonical generators of the Cuntz algebra ${\cal O}_{\infty}$. We show that such formal…
It has been conjectured since the work of Lalley and Sellke (1987) that the branching Brownian motion seen from its tip (e.g. from its rightmost particle) converges to an invariant point process. Very recently, it emerged that this can be…
