Suppose that lambda = mu^+. We consider two aspects of the square property on subsets of lambda. First, we have results which show e.g. that for aleph_0 <= kappa =cf (kappa)< mu, the equality cf([mu]^{<= kappa}, subseteq)= mu is a…
A classical result of A. Fleck states that if p is a prime, and n>0 and r are integers, then $$\sum_{k=r(mod p)}\binom {n}{k}(-1)^k=0 (mod p^{[(n-1)/(p-1)]}).$$ Recently R. M. Wilson used Fleck's congruence and Weisman's extension to…
For odd primes $p$ we consider the factors \[ A(p)=\frac{p-\chi_4(p)}{p+\chi_4(p)}, \qquad \chi_4(p)= \begin{cases} 1,&p\equiv 1\pmod 4, \\ -1,&p\equiv 3\pmod 4, \end{cases} \] and study products of $A(p)$ restricted to unions of residue…
We introduce a method for studying the Lefschetz properties for $k[x,y]$-modules based on the Lindstr\"om-Gessel-Viennot Lemma. In particular, we prove that certain modules over Artinian Clements-Lindstr\"om rings in characteristic zero…
We consider $p$-weak differentiable structures that were recently introduced by the first and last named authors, and prove that the product of $p$-weak charts is a $p$-weak chart. This implies that the product of two spaces with a $p$-weak…
We prove new combinatorial results about polynomial configurations in large subsets of finite fields. Bergelson--Leibman--McCutcheon (2005) showed that for any polynomial $P(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ with $P(0) = 0$, if $A \subseteq…
In this paper, using Mountain Pass Lemma and Linking Argument, we prove the existence of nontrivial weak solutions for the Dirichlet problem for the superlinear equation of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type in the case where the parameter…
Let A be a standard graded Artinian algebra over a field of characteristic zero and let z be a linear form in A. We define the central simple modules for each such pair (A, z). Assume that A is Gorenstein. Then we prove that A has the…
We study a certain two-parameter family of non-standard graded complete intersections $A(m,n)$. In case $n=2$, we show that $A(m,2)$ has the strong Lefschetz property and the complex Hodge-Riemann property if and only if $m$ is even. This…
We show that all the zeros of the quadrinomial $p(z)=1+\kappa(z+z^{N-1})+z^N$ lie on the unit circle if and only if the inequalities \[ -1\le\kappa\le 1\; (\mbox{ if $N$ is even}),\;\; -1\le\kappa\le N/(N-2)\; (\mbox{ if $N$ is odd}) \]…
We prove that algebras are left weakly Gorenstein in case the subcategory $^{\perp}A \cap \Omega^n(A)$ is representation-finite. This applies in particular to all monomial algebras and endomorphism algebras of modules over…
We introduce and study weak o-minimality in the context of complete types in an arbitrary first-order theory. A type $p\in S(A)$ is weakly o-minimal if for some relatively $A$-definable linear order, $<$, on $p(\mathfrak{C})$ every…
Let $R$ be an associative algebra over a field $K$ generated by a vector subspace $V$. The polynomial $f(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ of the free associative algebra $K\langle x_1,x_2,\ldots\rangle$ is a weak polynomial identity for the pair $(R,V)$ if…
In this article, we prove necessary conditions for Hibi rings to satisfy Green-Lazarsfeld property $N_p$ for $p=2$ and $3$. We also show that if a Hibi ring satisfies property $N_4$, then it is a polynomial ring or it has a linear…
We say that Wiener's property holds for the exponent $p>0$ if we have that whenever a positive definite function $f$ belongs to $L^p(-\epsilon,\epsilon)$ for some $\epsilon>0$, then $f$ necessarily belongs to $L^p(\TT)$, too. This holds…
We prove the existence of complex polynomials $p(z)$ of degree $n$ and $q(z)$ of degree $m<n$ such that the harmonic polynomial $ p(z) + \overline{q(z)}$ has at least $\lceil n \sqrt{m} \rceil$ many zeros. This provides an array of new…
Let $k$ be a field, $V$ be a $k$-vector space and $X\subset V$ an algebraic irreducible subvariety. We say that a function $f:X(k) \to k$ is weakly linear if its restriction to any two-dimensional linear subspace $W$ of $V$ contained in $X$…
We investigate the Whyburn and weakly Whyburn property in the class of $P$-spaces, that is spaces where every countable intersection of open sets is open. We construct examples of non-weakly Whyburn $P$-spaces of size continuum, thus giving…
Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} E & F \\ F^T & G \end{bmatrix}$ be a $2n \times 2n$ real positive definite matrix, where $E, F,$ and $G$ are $n \times n$ blocks. It is shown that $\ d(E \oplus G) \prec^w d(A)$. Here $d(A)$ denotes the $n$-vector…
A composite positive integer $n$ is said to be a {\it weak Carmichael number} if $$ \sum_{\gcd(k,n)=1\atop 1\le k\le n-1}k^{n-1}\equiv \varphi(n) \pmod{n}. \leqno(1) $$ It is proved that a composite positive integer $n$ is a weak Carmichael…
