The hyperlinear profile of a group measures the growth rate of the dimension of unitary approximations to the group. We construct a finitely-presented group whose hyperlinear profile is at least subexponential, i.e. at least…

Consider an expansion $\mathcal R=(R,<,+,\ldots)$ of an ordered divisible Abelian group of finite burden defining no nonempty subset $X$ of $R$ which is dense and codense in a definable open subset $U$ of $R$ with $X \subseteq U$. We…

A topological quantum field theory of non-abelian differential forms is investigated from the point of view of its possible applications to description of polynomial invariants of higher-dimensional two-component links. A path-integral…

This is a self-contained introduction to the applications of ergodic theory of nonsingular (also known as quasi-invariant) group actions and the structure theorem for finitely generated abelian groups on the extreme values of stationary…

The paper proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) being a global approximator for a special class of functions, which are known as generalized homogeneous. The homogeneity means a symmetry of a function with respect to a group of…

We study functional clones, which are sets of non-negative pseudo-Boolean functions (functions $\{0,1\}^k\to\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$) closed under (essentially) multiplication, summation and limits. Functional clones naturally form a lattice…

Let $1 \to N \to G \to H \to 1$ be an abelian extension. The purpose of this paper is to study the problem of extending automorphisms of $N$ and lifting automorphisms of $H$ to certain automorphisms of $G$.

The near-unanimity-closed minions of Boolean functions, i.e., the clonoids whose target algebra contains a near-unanimity function, are completely described. The key concept towards this result is the minorant-minor partial order and its…

First we show that any group of automorphisms of null-entropy of a projective hyperk\"ahler manifold $M$ is almost abelian of rank at most $\rho(M) - 2$. We then characterize automorphisms of a K3 surface with null-entropy and those with…

We give a new proof of quantifier elimination in the theory of all ordered abelian groups in a suitable language. More precisely, this is only "quantifier elimination relative to ordered sets" in the following sense. Each definable set in…

We exploit a new theory of duality transformations to construct dual representations of models incompatible with traditional duality transformations. Hence we obtain a solution to the long-standing problem of non-Abelian dualities that…

We establish the functorial transfer of generic, automorphic representations from the quasi-split general spin groups to general linear groups over arbitrary number fields, completing an earlier project. Our results are definitive and, in…

Planar functions are special functions from a finite field to itself that give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. We consider polynomials over a finite field $K$ that induce planar functions on infinitely many…

We present in a unified setting the foundations for a theory of non-bilinear Dirichlet functionals on Hilbert spaces. We prove known and new equivalences between non-linear semigroups, non-linear resolvents, non-linear generators, and their…

We first prove Bosch-L\"utkebohmert-Raynaud's conjectures on existence of global N\'eron models of not necessarily semi-abelian algebraic groups in the perfect residue fields case. We then give a counterexample to the existence in the…

We provide a characterization of almost ordinary abelian varieties over finite fields, and use this characterization to provide lower bounds for the sizes of some almost ordinary isogeny classes.

We show under suitable finiteness conditions that a functor between abelian categories induces a (not necessarily additive) map between their Grothendieck groups. This is related to the derived functors of Dold and Puppe, and generalizes a…

The main goal of this paper is to provide a group theoretical generalization of the well-known Euler's totient function. This determines an interesting class of finite groups.

Let $p>3$ be a prime. We show that, for each integer $d$ with $p \leq d \leq 2(p-1)$, there exists a generalized almost perfect nonlinear (GAPN) binomial or trinomial over $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$ of algebraic degree $d$. We start by deriving…

We give complete, finite quasiequational axiomatisations for algebras of unary partial functions under the operations of composition, domain, antidomain, range and intersection. This completes the extensive programme of classifying algebras…
