The asymptotic expansion of the Kummer function ${}_1F_1(a; b; z)$ is examined as $z\to+\infty$ on the Stokes line $\arg\,z=0$. The correct form of the subdominant algebraic contribution is obtained for non-integer $a$. Numerical results…

A complete contraction on a C*-algebra A, which preserves all closed two sided ideals J, can be approximated pointwise by elementary complete contractions if and only if the induced map on the tensor product of B with A/J is contractive for…

We take the first step toward a structure theory that includes both operations of a ring $\mathcal{R}$. More precisely, we prove a series of inverse results for the structure of sets $A\subseteq \mathbf{F}_p$ such that, under certain…

Given an $E_1$-ring $A$ and a class $a \in \pi_{mk}(A)$ satisfying a suitable hypothesis, we define a map of $E_1$-rings $A\to A(\sqrt[m]{a})$ realizing the adjunction of an $m$th root of $a$. We define a form of logarithmic THH for…

For $\lambda \in \mathbb{Z}$, let $\lambda \cdot A = \{ \lambda a : a \in A\}$. Suppose $r, h\in \mathbb{Z}$ are sufficiently large and comparable to each other. We prove that if $|A+A| \le K |A|$ and $\lambda_1, \ldots, \lambda_h \le 2^r$,…

In this present article, we get sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of fixed points and common fixed points for single and double mapping satisfying various contractive conditions within the partially ordered…

Let A and B be commutative locally convex algebras with unit. A is assumed to be a uniform topological algebra. Let h be an injective homomorphism from A to B. Under additional assumptions, we characterize the continuity of the homomorphism…

We study the following problem: given n real arguments a1, ..., an and n real weights w1, ..., wn, under what conditions does the inequality w1 f(a1) + w2 f(a2) + ... + wn f(an) >= 0 hold for all functions f with nonnegative kth derivative…

Suppose $A$ is a $C^*$-algebra and $H$ is a $C^*$-correspondence over $A$. If $H$ is regular in the sense that the left action of $A$ is faithful and is given by compact operators, then we compute the $K$-theory of $\mathcal{O}_A(H) \rtimes…

Suppose $k$ is a positive integer and $\mathcal{X}$ is a $k$-fold packing of the plane by infinitely many arc-connected compact sets, which means that every point of the plane belongs to at most $k$ sets. Suppose there is a function…

Let $\F_q$ be a finite field of order $q$ and $P$ be a polynomial in $\F_q[x_1, x_2]$. For a set $A \subset \F_q$, define $P(A):=\{P(x_1, x_2) | x_i \in A \}$. Using certain constructions of expanders, we characterize all polynomials $P$…

This paper discusses a more general contractive condition for a class of extended cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same…

Rudyak's conjecture states that cat$(M) \geq$ cat$(N)$ given a degree one map $f:M \to N$ between closed manifolds. We generalize this conjecture to sectional category, and follow the methodology of [5] to get the following result: Given a…

A ``k-rule" is a sequence A=((A_n,B_n):n<omega) of pairwise disjoint sets B_n, each of cardinality at most k, where A_n is a subset of B_n. A set X of natural numbers (a ``real'') follows a rule A if for infinitely many n we have that the…

The postulates of comprehension and extensionality in set theory are based on an inversion principle connecting set-theoretic abstraction and the property of having a member. An exactly analogous inversion principle connects functional…

We obtain convergent inverse factorial expansions for the sum $S_n(a,b;c)$ of the first $n$ terms of the Gauss hypergeometric function of unit argument valid for $n\geq 1$. The form of these expansions depends on the location of the…

If T is an iteration tree on K and F is a countably certified extender that coheres with the final model of T, then F is on the extender sequence of the final model of T. Several applications of maximality are proved, including: o K…

Further extensions are given to the fixed point result (for implicit contractions) due to Altun and Simsek [Fixed Point Th. Appl., Volume 2010, Article ID 621469]. Some connections with related statements in the area due to Agarwal,…

Let A be a subset of the real line. We study the fractal dimensions of the k-fold iterated sumsets kA, defined as kA = A+...+A (k times). We show that for any non-decreasing sequence {a_k} taking values in [0,1], there exists a compact set…

We employ the pinching theorem, ensuring that some operators A admit any sequence of contractions as an operator diagonal of A, to deduce/improve two recent theorems of Kennedy-Skoufranis and Loreaux-Weiss for conditional expectations onto…
