Two classes of ternary bent functions of degree four with two and three terms in the univariate representation that belong to the completed Maiorana-McFarland class are found. Binomials are mappings $\F_{3^{4k}}\mapsto\fthree$ given by…
We provide an alternative, simpler proof of the existence of thick triangulations for noncompact $\mathcal{C}^1$ manifolds. Moreover, this proof is simpler than the original one given in \cite{pe}, since it mainly uses tools of elementary…
In this short note we discuss ordinary differential equations which linearize upon one (or more) differentiations. Although the subject is fairly elementary, equations of this type arise naturally in the context of integrable systems.
In this note a critical point result for differentiable functionals is exploited in order to prove that a suitable class of one-dimensional fractional problems admits at least one non-trivial solution under an asymptotical behaviour of the…
We consider a rational system of first order difference equations in the plane with four parameters such that all fractions have a common denominator. We study, for the different values of the parameters, the global and local properties of…
We introduce a new fractional derivative which obeys classical properties including: linearity, product rule, quotient rule, power rule, chain rule, vanishing derivatives for constant functions, the Rolle's Theorem and the Mean Value…
This paper presents an alternative proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra that has several distinct advantages. The proof is based on simple ideas involving continuity and differentiation. Visual software demonstrations can be used to…
A rigorous geometric proof of the Lie's Theorem on nonlinear superposition rules for solutions of non-autonomous ordinary differential equations is given filling in all the gaps present in the existing literature. The proof is based on an…
The second derivative of a function r(t) with respect to a variable t is equal to -n times the function raised to the 2n-1 power of r(t); using this definition, an ordinary differential equation is constructed. Graphs with the horizontal…
In this paper we shall establish some regularity results of solutions of a class of fully nonlinear equations, with a first order term which is sub-linear. We prove local H\"older regularity of the gradient both in the interior and up to…
Basic aspects of differential geometry can be extended to various non-classical settings: Lipschitz manifolds, rectifiable sets, sub-Riemannian manifolds, Banach manifolds, Weiner space, etc. Although the constructions differ, in each of…
In this paper we strengthen Kolchin's theorem ([1]) in the ordinary case. It states that if a differential field $E$ is finitely generated over a differential subfield $F \subset E$, $trdeg_F E < \infty$, and $F$ contains a nonconstant,…
Associated Legendre functions of fractional degree appear in the solution of boundary value problems in wedges or in toroidal geometries, and elsewhere in applied mathematics. In the classical case when the degree is half an odd integer,…
A new method to obtain trigonometry for the real spaces of constant curvature and metric of any (even degenerate) signature is presented. The method encapsulates trigonometry for all these spaces into a single basic trigonometric group…
A class theorem is presented and proved: the complex Fourier transforms of a certain class of exponential functions have all their zeros on the real line. A class of basis functions is first considered, and the class is then extended via…
We show an explicit formula, with a quite easy deduction, for the exponential matrix $e^{tA}$ of a real square matrix $A$ of order $n\times n$. The elementary method developed requires neither Jordan canonical form, nor eigenvectors, nor…
We provide elementary proof of several congruences involving single sum and multisums of binomial coefficients.
Let $f$ be a function on the real line. The Fourier transform inversion theorem is proved under the assumption that $f$ is absolutely continuous such that $f$ and $f'$ are Lebesgue integrable. A function $g$ is defined by…

We consider in the plane the problem of reconstructing a domain from the normal derivative of its Green's function with pole at a fixed point in the domain. By means of the theory of conformal mappings, we obtain existence, uniqueness,…
