In this paper we study sets of points in the plane with rational distances from r prescribed points P_1, ...,P_r. A crucial case arises for r = 3, where we provide simple necessary and sufficient conditions for the density of this set in…
Let $X(\RR)$ be a geometrically connected variety defined over $\RR$ and such that the set of all its (also complex) points $X(\CC)$ is non-degenerate. We introduce the notion of \emph{admissible rank} of a point $P$ with respect to $X$ to…
We prove that if $\max\{|a_0|,|a_1|\}\le 10$ and $\lambda\in\ ]-2,2[$, then the sequence defined by $$ 0 \le a_{n+2} +\lambda a_{n+1}+a_n<1 $$ is periodic.
In this paper we formulate and prove a combinatorial version of the section conjecture for finite groups acting on finite graphs. We apply this result to the study of rational points and show that finite descent is the only obstruction to…
Let $f_t$ be a one-parameter family of rational maps defined over a number field $K$. We show that for all $t$ outside of a set of natural density zero, every $K$-rational preperiodic point of $f_t$ is the specialization of some…
We consider real sequences $(f_n)$ that satisfy a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. We show that the density of the positivity set of such a sequence always exists. In the special case where the sequence has no positive…
We study Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on symplectic Euclidean spaces that are equal to non-degenerate linear maps at infinity. Under the assumption that there exists an isolated homologically nontrivial fixed point satisfying the twist…
This paper is devoted to study the qualitative properties of hybrid measure differential equations (HMDEs, for short). We establish several results on the existence of global solutions, including the existence of regulated, continuous,…
We prove completeness of preferential conditional logic with respect to convexity over finite sets of points in the Euclidean plane. A conditional is defined to be true in a finite set of points if all extreme points of the set interpreting…
As physics searches for invariants in observations, this paper looks for invariants of probabilistic observation without assuming physical structure. Structure emerges from the basic assumption of science that new information shall lead to…
Let $k$ be a global field and let $L_0$,...,$L_m$ be finite separable field extensions of $k$. In this paper, we are interested in the Hasse principle for the multinorm equation $\underset{i=0}{\overset{m}{\prod}}N_{L_i/k}(t_i)=c$. Under…
The horizon is a classical concept that arises in general relativity, and is therefore not clearly defined when the source cannot be reliably described by classical physics. To any (sufficiently) localised quantum mechanical wave-function,…
Consider an SDE on a foliated manifold whose trajectories lay on compact leaves. We investigate the effective behavior of a small transversal perturbation of order $\varepsilon$. An average principle is shown to hold such that the component…
For any irrational $\alpha > 0$ and any initial value $z_{-1} \in \mathbb{C}$, we define a sequence of complex numbers $(z_n)_{n=0}^{\infty}$ as follows: $z_n$ is $z_{n-1} + e^{2 \pi i \alpha n}$ or $z_{n-1} - e^{2 \pi i \alpha n}$,…
Let $A \subseteq \{0,1,\dots,N\}$ be a random set in which each element is included independently with probability $p=p(N)$. Fix an integer $h \geq 2$ and a linear form $$L(x_1,\dots,x_h) := u_1x_1 + \cdots + u_hx_h.$$ We study the random…
By varying a parameter of a one-dimensional piecewise smooth map, stable periodic orbits are observed. In this paper, complete analytic characterization of these stable periodic orbits is obtained. An interesting relationship between the…
Periodic Geometry studies isometry invariants of periodic point sets that are also continuous under perturbations. The motivations come from periodic crystals whose structures are determined in a rigid form but any minimal cells can…
If \{A(V)\} is a net of local von Neumann algebras satisfying standard axioms of algebraic relativistic quantum field theory and V_1 and V_2 are spacelike separated spacetime regions, then the system (A(V_1),A(V_2),\phi) is said to satisfy…
A group $\Gamma$ is said to be periodic if for any $g$ in $\Gamma$ there is a positive integer $n$ with $g^n=id$. We first prove that a finitely generated periodic group acting on the 2-sphere $\SS^2$ by $C^1$-diffeomorphisms with a finite…
Bayes factors are characterized by both the powerful mathematical framework of Bayesian statistics and the useful interpretation as evidence quantification. Former requires a parameter distribution that changes by seeing the data, latter…
