Let $p$ be a prime number and $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$, the algebraic closure of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and ${\bf B}$ be a Borel subgroup…

It is a classical fact that domains of convergence of power series of several complex variables are characterized as logarithmically convex complete Reinhardt domains; let $D \subsetneq \mathbb{C}^N$ be such a domain. We show that a…

The functional (de)composition of polynomials is a topic in pure and computer algebra with many applications. The structure of decompositions of (suitably normalized) polynomials f(x) = g(h(x)) in F[x] over a field F is well understood in…

A trigonometric series strongly bounded at two points and with coefficients forming a log-quasidecreasing sequence is necessarily the Fourier series of a function belonging to all $L^{p}$ spaces, $1\leq p < \infty$. We obtain new results on…

We consider finite-dimensional complex Lie algebras admitting a periodic derivation, i.e., a nonsingular derivation which has finite multiplicative order. We show that such Lie algebras are at most two-step nilpotent and give several…

A finite algebra $\bA=\alg{A;\cF}$ is \emph{dualizable} if there exists a discrete topological relational structure $\BA=\alg{A;\cG;\cT}$, compatible with $\cF$, such that the canonical evaluation map $e\_{\bB}\colon \bB\to \Hom(…

Let $K$ be an arbitrary field of characteristic zero and $A$ a commutative associative $ K$-algebra which is an integral domain. Denote by $R$ the fraction field of $A$ and by $W(A)=RDer_{\mathbb K}A,$ the Lie algebra of $\mathbb…

Let $X$ be a smooth quasi-projective surface over a number field $K$, and let $L$ be a foliation on $X$. We prove that if $L$ is closed under $p$-th powers for almost all primes $p$, then any $L$-invariant smooth formal curve is…

This is the second article in a two-part project whose aim is to study algebraic and analytic ranks in $p$-adic families of modular forms. Let $f$ be a newform of weight $2$, square-free level $N$ and trivial character, let $A_f$ be the…

We look at sequences of positive integers that can be realized as degree sequences of iterates of rational dominant maps of smooth projective varieties over arbitrary fields. New constraints on the degree growth of endomorphisms of the…

We revisit Christol's theorem on algebraic power series in positive characteristic and propose yet another proof for it. This new proof combines several ingredients and advantages of existing proofs, which make it very well-suited for…

Let $G\subset x{\mathbb F}_q[\![x]\!]$ ($q$ is a power of the prime $p$) be a subset of formal power series over a finite field such that it forms a compact abelian $p$-adic Lie group of dimension $d\ge 1$. We establish a necessary and…

For each simply-laced Dynkin graph $\Delta$ we realize the simple complex Lie algebra of type $\Delta$ as a quotient algebra of the complex degenerate composition Lie algebra $L(A)_{1}^{\mathbb{C}}$ of a domestic canonical algebra $A$ of…

We recall that diagonals of rational functions naturally occur in lattice statistical mechanics and enumerative combinatorics. We find that a seven-parameter rational function of three variables with a numerator equal to one (reciprocal of…

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a number field. An important geometric-dynamical invariant of f is its (first) dynamical degree d_f= lim SpecRadius((f^n)^*)^{1/n}. For algebraic points P of X…

We consider a formal power series in one variable whose coefficients are holomorphic functions in a given multidimensional complex domain. Assume the following two conditions on the series. (C1) The restriction of the series at each point…

We explore parameterizations by radicals of low genera algebraic curves. We prove that for $q$ a prime power that is large enough and prime to $6$, a fixed positive proportion of all genus 2 curves over the field with $q$ elements can be…

We study deformations of rational curves and their singularities in positive characteristic. We use this to prove that if a smooth and proper surface in positive characteristic $p$ is dominated by a family of rational curves such that one…

Given a polynomial $f$ with coefficients in a field of prime characteristic $p$, it is known that there exists a differential operator that raises $1/f$ to its $p$th power. We first discuss a relation between the `level' of this…

In the first part, we study the structure of the R-algebra generated by the Hodge classes on the self-product A^e of a very general principally polarized abelian variety A. In the second part, we compare various notions of positivity for…
