We characterize those valued fields for which the image of the valuation ring under every polynomial in several variables contains an element of maximal value, or zero.

Many geometric optimization problems can be reduced to finding points in space (centers) minimizing an objective function which continuously depends on the distances from the centers to given input points. Examples are $k$-Means, Geometric…

Given a dominant rational self-map on a projective variety over a number field, we can define the arithmetic degree at a rational point. It is known that the arithmetic degree at any point is less than or equal to the first dynamical…

We prove existence and uniqueness of optimal maps on $RCD^*(K,N)$ spaces under the assumption that the starting measure is absolutely continuous. We also discuss how this result naturally leads to the notion of exponentiation.

We study the connection between the magnetization profiles of models described by a scalar field with marginal interaction term in a bounded domain and the solutions of the so-called Yamabe problem in the same domain, which amounts to…

In this article we discuss the geometric quantization on a certain type of infinite dimensional super-disc. Such systems are quite natural when we analyze coupled bosons and fermions. The large-N limit of a system like that corresponds to a…

We extend a technique, originally due to the first author and Poonen, for proving cases of the Strong Uniform Boundedness Principle (SUBP) in algebraic dynamics over function fields of positive characteristic. The original method applied to…

The problem of expressing a specific polynomial as the determinant of a square matrix of affine-linear forms arises from algebraic geometry, optimisation, complexity theory, and scientific computing. Motivated by recent developments in this…

Let $f:\mathbb{K}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{K}^m$ be a generically finite polynomial map of degree $d$ between affine spaces. In arXiv:1411.5011 we proved that if $\mathbb{K}$ is the field of complex or real numbers, then the set $S_f$ of points…

In recent decades, the defect of finite extensions of valued fields has emerged as the main obstacle in several fundamental problems in algebraic geometry such as the local uniformization problem. Hence, it is important to identify…

We prove geometric rigidity inequalities for incompatible fields in dimension higher than 2. We are able to obtain strong scaling-invariant $L^p$ estimates in the supercritical regime, while for critical exponent $1^* = \frac{n}{n-1}$ we…

We establish a new characterization for a conformal mapping of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ to be convex, and identify the mappings onto a half-plane or a parallel strip as extremals. We also show that, with these exceptions, the level sets…

We study three well known models of matter coupled to the ultraviolet cutoff, quantized radiation field and to the Coulomb potential of arbitrarily many nuclei. Two are nonrelativistic: the first uses the kinetic energy (p+eA(x))^2 and the…

We consider relative character varieties on $\mathbb{P}^1\backslash\{0,1,\infty\}$ with $G=GL(r), O(r)$, or $Sp(r)$. Using a diagrammatic method of Simpson's, we give an explicit linear upper bound $R(d)$ on the rank $r$ of an MC-minimal…

Linearization is a well-known concept in complex dynamics. If $p$ is a polynomial and $z_0$ is a repelling fixed point, then there is an entire function $L$ which conjugates $p$ to the linear map $z\mapsto p'(z_0)z$. This notion of…

We prove that if T is a theory of large, bounded, fields of characteristic zero, with almost quantifier elimination, and T_D is the model companion of T + "D is a derivation", then for any model U of T_D, and differential subfield K of U…

We provide a characterisation of differentially large fields in arbitrary characteristic and a single derivation in the spirit of Blum axioms for differentially closed fields. In the case of characteristic zero, we use these axioms to…

The characteristic cohomology $H^k_{char}(d)$ for an arbitrary set of free $p$-form gauge fields is explicitly worked out in all form degrees $k<n-1$, where $n$ is the spacetime dimension. It is shown that this cohomology is…

In [1] the authors showed some basic properties of a pre-order that arose in combinatorial number theory, namely the finite embeddability between sets of natural numbers, and they presented its generalization to ultrafilters, which is…

We establish a new framework for image registration, which is based on linear elasticity and optimal mass transportation theory. We combine these two arguments in order to obtain a PDE constrained optimization problem that is analytically…
