Automated program verification often proceeds by exhibiting inductive invariants entailing the desired properties.For numerical properties, a classical class of invariants is convex polyhedra: solution sets of system of linear…

In this article we discuss the solvability of some class of fully nonlinear equations, and equations with p-Laplacian in more general conditions by using a new approach given in [1] for studying the nonlinear continuous operator. Moreover…

The principal result is a primary decomposition of ideals generated by the (2x2)-subpermanents of a generic matrix. These permanental ideals almost always have embedded components and their minimal primes are of three distinct heights. Thus…

In this article, we give a rough, and so not complete yet, proof of Kashaev's conjecture, that is, the volume conjecture for hyperbolic knots, where the hyperbolicity equations associated to knot diagrams appear as the stationary phase…

We investigate the inverse problem consisting in the identification of constant coefficients for a fractional-in-time partial differential equation governed by a finite sum of positive self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space under…

This paper solves the rational noncommutative analog of Hilbert's 17th problem: if a noncommutative rational function is positive semidefinite on all tuples of hermitian matrices in its domain, then it is a sum of hermitian squares of…

We prove that the orbit closure of the determinant is not normal. A similar result is obtained for the orbit closure of the permanent multiplied by a power of a linear form.

For the two sixth-order polynomials $a(s)$ and $b(s),$ Hurwitz stability of their convex combination is necessary and sufficient for the existence of a polynomial $c(s)$ such that $c(s)/a(s)$ and $c(s)/b(s)$ are both strictly positive real.…

It is known that any symmetric matrix $M$ with entries in $\R[x]$ and which is positive semi-definite for any substitution of $x\in\R$, has a Smith normal form whose diagonal coefficients are constant sign polynomials in $\R[x]$. We…

We address partition regularity problems for homogeneous quadratic equations. A consequence of our main results is that, under natural conditions on the coefficients $a,b,c$, for any finite coloring of the positive integers, there exists a…

Let $X$ be a matrix of indeterminates, $t$ an integer, and $P_t(X)$ define the ideal generated by the permanents of all $t\times t$ submatrix of $X$. $P_t(X)$ is called a permanental ideal. In this article, we study the algebras…

We continue the search, begun by Kato, for all pairs of real, bounded, measurable functions $\{f,g\}$ that result in a positive commutator $[if(P),g(Q)]$. We prove a number of partial results including a connection with Loewner's celebrated…

We establish the existence of loop type subcontinua of nonnegative solutions for a class of concave-convex type elliptic equations with indefinite weights, under Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Our approach depends on local and…

A non-zero constant Jacobian polynomial maps $F=(P,Q)$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ is invertible if $P$ and $Q$ are rational polynomials.

We prove that the enumerative polynomials of generalized Stirling permutations by the statistics of plateaux, descents and ascents are partial $\gamma$-positive. Specialization of our result to the Jacobi-Stirling permutations confirms a…

Spacetime convexity is a basic geometric property of the solutions of parabolic equations. In this paper, we study microscopic convexity properties of spacetime convex solutions of fully nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations…

In the recent progress [BE1], [M], [Z1] and [Z2], the well-known Jacobian conjecture ([BCW], [E]) has been reduced to a problem on HN (Hessian nilpotent) polynomials (the polynomials whose Hessian matrix are nilpotent) and their (deformed)…

We prove the (generalized) principal pivot transform is matrix monotone, in the sense of the L\"owner ordering, under minimal hypotheses. This improves on the recent results of J. E. Pascoe and R. Tully-Doyle, Monotonicity of the principal…

We provide three new proofs of the strong concavity of the dual function of some convex optimization problems. For problems with nonlinear constraints, we show that the the assumption of strong convexity of the objective cannot be weakened…

Given a polynomial $x \in {\mathbb R}^n \mapsto p(x)$ in $n=2$ variables, a symbolic-numerical algorithm is first described for detecting whether the connected component of the plane sublevel set ${\mathcal P} = \{x : p(x) \geq 0\}$…
