A square matrix $A$ is completely positive if $A=BB^T$, where $B$ is a (not necessarily square) nonnegative matrix. In general, a completely positive matrix may have many, even infinitely many, such CP factorizations. But in some cases a…

We construct two new families of basis for finite field extensions. Basis in the first family, the so-called elliptic basis, are not quite normal basis, but they allow very fast Frobenius exponentiation while preserving sparse…

Let $m\neq0,\pm1$ and $n\geq 2$ be integers. The ring of algebraic integers of the pure fields of type $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[n]{m})$ is explicitly known for $n=2,3,4$. It is well known that for $n=2$, an integral basis of the pure quadratic…

The properties of continued fractions whose partial quotients belong to a quadratic number field K are distinct from those of classical continued fractions. Unlike classical continued fractions, it is currently impossible to identify…

In this paper, a method for constructing a near optimal normal basis for algebraic extensions of a finite field is described. In each extension, except for the squares of basis elements, the product of two distinct normal basis elements can…

Let $\alpha, \beta$ be two relatively prime algebraic integers in a number field $K$ and $N$ be a positive integer. We show that the number of $n\in\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ such that the $\beta$-adic expansion of $\alpha^n$ omits a given digit is…

For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…

We discuss the birational geometry of singular surfaces in positive characteristic. More precisely, we establish the minimal model program and the abundance theorem for Q-factorial surfaces and for log canonical surfaces. Moreover, in the…

We show that every positive expansive flow on a compact metric space consists of a finite number of periodic orbits and fixed points.

We introduce a Bernstein-Bezier basis for the pyramid, whose restriction to the face reduces to the Bernstein-Bezier basis on the triangle or quadrilateral. The basis satisfies the standard positivity and partition of unity properties…

The well known binary and decimal representations of the integers, and other similar number systems, admit many generalisations. Here, we investigate whether still every integer could have a finite expansion on a given integer base b, when…

For a positive integer $m$ let $\Omega _m=\{0,1, \cdots , m\}$ and \begin{align*} \mathcal B_2(m)=&\left \{q\in(1,m+1]: \text{$\exists\; x\in [0, m/(q-1)]$ has exactly }\right. \\ &\left. \text{two different $q$-expansions w.r.t. $\Omega…

This paper studies a partial-fraction expansion for lossless negative imaginary systems and presents a generalized lossless negative imaginary lemma by allowing poles at zero. First, a necessary and sufficient condition for a system to be…

It is well-known that when a positively expansive dynamical system is invertible then its underlying space is finite. C.Morales has introduced a decade ago a natural way to generalize positive expansiveness, by introducing other properties…

Self-similar sets require a separation condition to admit a nice mathematical structure. The classical open set condition (OSC) is difficult to verify. Zerner proved that there is a positive and finite Hausdorff measure for a weaker…

The study of the asymptotic distributions of zeros of generalized Jacobi polynomials with non real varying parameters, leads with quadratic differentials. In fact, the support of the limit measure of the root-counting measures sits on the…

We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a cubic polynomial to be positive for all positive reals. We identify the set where the cubic polynomial is nonnegative but not all positive for all positive reals, and explicitly give the…

In this paper we give a new sufficient condition for asymptotic periodicity of Frobenius-Perron operator corresponding to two--dimensional maps. The result of the asymptotic periodicity for strictly expanding systems, that is, all…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. A rational map $\phi\in K(z)$ of degree at least $2$ is subhyperbolic if each critical point in the $\mathbb{C}_p$-Julia set of $\phi$ is eventually periodic. We…

The Thue--Morse sequence $\{t(n)\}_{n\geqslant 1}$ is the indicator function of the parity of the number of ones in the binary expansion of positive integers $n$, where $t(n)=1$ (resp. $=0$) if the binary expansion of $n$ has an odd (resp.…
