The theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to…
Given a nilpotent singular point of a planar vector field, its monodromy is associated with its Andreev number $n$. The parity of $n$ determines whether the existence of an inverse integrating factor implies that the singular point is a…
From a sequence $\left\{ a_{n}\right\} _{n=0}^{\infty}$ of real numbers satisfying a three-term recurrence, we form a sequence of polynomials $\left\{ P_{m}(z)\right\} _{m=0}^{\infty}$ whose coefficients are numbers in this sequence. We…
The three famous problems concerning units, zero-divisors and idempotents in group rings of torsion-free groups, commonly attributed to I. Kaplansky, have been around for more than 60 years and still remain open in characteristic zero. In…
This paper is concerned with the resolution of an inverse problem related to the recovery of a scalar (potential) function $V$ from the source to solution map, of the semi-linear equation $(\Box_{g}+V)u+u^3=0$ on a globally hyperbolic…
We solve the center-focus problem in a class of piecewise quadratic polynomial differential systems with an invariant straight line. The separation curve is also a straight line which is not invariant. We provide families having at the…
We illustrate an efficient new method for handling polynomial systems with degenerate solution sets. In particular, a corollary of our techniques is a new algorithm to find an isolated point in every excess component of the zero set (over…
The solutions of the sl_N Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov(KZ) equations at level 0 are studied. We present the integral formula which is obtained as a quasi-classical limit of the integral formula for form factors of the SU(N) invariant Thirring…
We study the solutions of the inverse problem \[ g(z)=\int f(y) P_T(z,dy) \] for a given $g$, where $(P_t(\cdot,\cdot))_{t \geq 0}$ is the transition function of a given Markov process, $X$, and $T$ is a fixed deterministic time, which is…
Starting from the nonlinear ODE $z'' + f(t)\,z + g(t)\, z^{m}=0$ with $m>1$, we show that after a suitable normal-form reduction of any Hill equation one may, without loss of generality, fix the linear part as $f(t)\equiv \omega^{2}$ (with…
In this paper we show that a polynomial equation admits infinitely many prime-tuple solutions assuming only that the equation satisfies suitable local conditions and the polynomial is sufficiently non-degenerate algebraically. Our notion of…
This paper generalizes the results obtained in an earlier paper (math.OA/0003087) for finite factors to infinite but still semifinite factors. First we give a characterization of cyclic and separating vectors for infinite semifinite factors…
For the planar $N$-centre problem $$ \ddot x = - \sum_{i=1}^N \frac{m_i (x-c_i)}{| x - c_i|^{\alpha+2}}, \qquad x \in \mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{ c_1,\ldots,c_N \}, $$ where $m_i > 0$ for $i=1,\ldots,N$ and $\alpha \in [1,2)$, we prove the…
Near full-null degenerate singular points of analytic vector fields, asymptotic behaviors of orbits are not given by eigenvectors but totally decided by nonlinearities. Especially, in the case of high full-null degeneracy, i.e., the lowest…

Let g be a cubic polynomial with integer coefficients and n>9 variables, and assume that the congruence g=0 modulo p^k is soluble for all prime powers p^k. We show that the equation g=0 has infinitely many integer solutions when the cubic…
We consider the following variant of the Mortality Problem: given $k\times k$ matrices $A_1, A_2, \dots,A_{t}$, does there exist nonnegative integers $m_1, m_2, \dots,m_t$ such that the product $A_1^{m_1} A_2^{m_2} \cdots A_{t}^{m_{t}}$ is…
The notion of tangencial base point is well-known for schemes in characteristic zero. We show that the definition in terms of Puiseux series generalizes to the case of Deligne--Mumford stacks, over a field of arbitrary characteristic. We…

Tangent Model Composition (TMC) is a method to combine component models independently fine-tuned around a pre-trained point. Component models are tangent vectors to the pre-trained model that can be added, scaled, or subtracted to support…
