We consider cylinders in ${\cal H}^2\times R$ (see definitions in the introduction) and prove that a complete and connected surface in ${\cal H}^2\times R$ with the vanishing of the Gauss and extrinsic curvatures is a cylinder.

Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer. To each irreducible representation $\sigma$ of $\mathrm O(1)$, an $\mathrm {O}(1)$-Kepler problem in dimension $n$ is constructed and analyzed. This system is super integrable and when $n=2$ it is equivalent to a…

Using the hamiltonian framework, we analyze the Gribov problem for U(N) and SU(N) gauge theories on a cylinder (= (1+1) dimensional spacetime with compact space S^1). The space of gauge orbits is found to be an orbifold. We show by explicit…

We prove that the Birkhoff map $\Om$ for KdV constructed on $H^{-1}_0(\T)$ can be interpolated between $H^{-1}_0(\T)$ and $L^2_0(\T)$. In particular, the symplectic phase space $H^{1/2}_0(\T)$ can be described in terms of Birkhoff…

Let $R_1$ be a commutative ring, let $R_2$ be a finitely generated extension ring of $R_1$, and let $S$ be a ring that is intermediate between $R_1$ and $R_2$. For $R_1 = R[x]$ and $R_2 = R[x,y]$, this paper gives simple combinatorial…

Let $\{X_i\}$ be a sequence of compact $n$-dimensional Alexandrov spaces (e.g. Riemannian manifolds) with curvature uniformly bounded below which converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to a compact Alexandrov space $X$. In an earlier paper…

We study the problem of \emph{robust satisfiability} of systems of nonlinear equations, namely, whether for a given continuous function $f:\,K\to\mathbb{R}^n$ on a~finite simplicial complex $K$ and $\alpha>0$, it holds that each function…

We introduce a natural generalization of the definition of a symmetric Hopf algebroid, internal to any symmetric monoidal category with coequalizers that commute with the monoidal product. Motivation for this is the study of Heisenberg…

We show that the massive noncommutative U(1) can be embedded in a gauge theory by using the BFFT Hamiltonian formalism. By virtue of the peculiar non-Abelian algebraic structure of the noncommutative massive U(1) theory, several specific…

Given two finite-dimensional representations $\rho$ and $\sigma$ of $\mathsf{SU}(n)$, when is there $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $\rho^{\otimes n}$ is isomorphic to a subrepresentation of $\sigma^{\otimes n}$? When is there a third…

In this paper, we compare the symplectic (co)homology capacity with the spectral capacity in the relative case. This result establishes a chain of inequalities of relative symplectic capacities, which is an analogue of the non-relative…

In 1975 Pippenger and Golumbic proved that any graph on $n$ vertices admits at most $2e(n/k)^k$ induced $k$-cycles. This bound is larger by a multiplicative factor of $2e$ than the simple lower bound obtained by a blow-up construction.…

We prove that over an algebraically closed field there is a representation embedding from the category of classical Kronecker-modules without the simple injective into the category of finite-dimensional modules over any…

The existence of explicit symplectic integrators for general nonseparable Hamiltonian systems is an open and important problem in both numerical analysis and computing in science and engineering, as explicit integrators are usually more…

This is the first in a series of papers on type I Howe duality for finite fields, concerning the restriction of an oscillator representation of the symplectic group to a product of a symplectic and an orthogonal group. The goal of the…

In this paper, we prove that there exist at least $n$ geometrically distinct brake orbits on every $C^2$ compact convex symmetric hypersurface $\Sg$ in $\R^{2n}$ satisfying the reversible condition $N\Sg=\Sg$ with $N=\diag (-I_n,I_n)$. As a…

We consider N=2 supergravity theories that have the same spectrum as the R+R^2 supergravity, as predicted from the off-shell counting of degrees of freedom. These theories describe standard N=2 supergravity coupled to one or two long…

The Aharonov-Bohm effect is analyzed for a spin-1/2 particle in the case that a $1/r$ potential is present. Scalar and vector couplings are each considered. It is found that the approach in which the flux tube is given a finite radius that…

In this paper we settle three basic questions concerning the Gutt-Hutchings capacities. Our primary result settles a version of the recognition question in the negative. We prove that the Gutt-Hutchings capacities together with the volume,…

We study the symplectic embedding capacity function $C_{\beta}$ for ellipsoids $E(1,\alpha)\subset R^4$ into dilates of polydisks $P(1,\beta)$ as both $\alpha$ and $\beta$ vary through $[1,\infty)$. For $\beta=1$ Frenkel and Mueller showed…
