In this note, we study Q-curvature flow on $S^4$ with indefinite nonlinearity. Our result is that the prescribed Q-curvature problem on $S^4$ has a solution provided the prescribed Q-curvature $f$ has its positive part, which possesses…

Necessary and sufficient conditions for convexity and strong convexity, respectively, of sublevel sets that are defined by finitely many real-valued $C^{1,1}$-maps are presented. A novel characterization of strongly convex sets in terms of…

In this note we consider differential equations driven by a signal $x$ which is $\gamma$-H\"older with $\gamma>1/3$, and is assumed to possess a lift as a rough path. Our main point is to obtain existence of solutions when the coefficients…

This article is concerned with time global behavior of solutions to focusing mass-subcritical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation of power type with data in a critical homogeneous weighted $L^2$ space. We give a sharp sufficient condition for…

We answer the question of when a new point can be added in a continuous way to configurations of $n$ distinct points in a closed ball of arbitrary dimension. We show that this is possible given an ordered configuration of $n$ points if and…

Let $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3$ be a smooth projective surface of degree $d\ge 4$ defined over a number field $K$, and let $N_{X^{\prime}}(B)$ be the number of rational points of $X$ of height at most $B$ that do not lie on lines contained in…

We obtain estimates for the nonlinear variational capacity of annuli in weighted R^n and in metric spaces. We introduce four different (pointwise) exponent sets, show that they all play fundamental roles for capacity estimates, and also…

We prove the hardness of weakly learning halfspaces in the presence of adversarial noise using polynomial threshold functions (PTFs). In particular, we prove that for any constants $d \in \mathbb{Z}^+$ and $\varepsilon > 0$, it is NP-hard…

In this article, we consider Kannan type contractive self-map $T$ on a metric space $(X,d)$ such that \[d(Tx,Ty)<\frac{1}{2}\{d(x,Tx)+d(y,Ty)\} \mbox{ for all } x \neq y \in X, \] and establish some new fixed point results without taking…

We describe a group theoretic condition which ensures that any cellular action of a group satisfying this condition on a CAT(0) cube complex has a global fixed point. In particular, we show that this fixed point criterion is satisfied by…

We consider a set $X$ of distinct points in the $n$-dimensional projective space over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $A$ denote the coordinate ring of $X$, and let $a_i(X)=\dim_k [{\rm Tor}_i^R(A,k)]_{i+1}$. Green's Strong…

Given a sequence $(T_1, T_2, ...)$ of random $d \times d$ matrices with nonnegative entries, suppose there is a random vector $X$ with nonnegative entries, such that $ \sum_{i \ge 1} T_i X_i $ has the same law as $X$, where $(X_1, X_2,…

In this paper, the sharp threshold of scattering for the fractional nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation in the $L^2$-supercritical case is obtained, i.e., if $1+\frac{4s}{N}<p<1+\frac{4s}{N-2s}$, and $$…

Collapsibility is a combinatorial strengthening of contractibility. We relate this property to metric geometry by proving the collapsibility of any complex that is CAT(0) with a metric for which all vertex stars are convex. This strengthens…

An instance of Max CSP is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal is to assign values to the variables that maximises the number of satisfied constraints. Max CSP captures many well-known problems (such as Max…

In the present paper we shall establish n-dimensional Hardy's inequalities with non-doubling weight functions of the distance to the boundary, where the boundary is a $C^2$ class bounded domain of $R^N$. This work is essentially based on…

We show that approximating the trace norm contraction coefficient of a quantum channel within a constant factor is NP-hard. Equivalently, this shows that determining the optimal success probability for encoding a bit in a quantum system…

The Kuramoto model when considered over the full space of phase angles [$0,2\pi$) can have multiple stable fixed points which form basins of attraction in the solution space. In this paper we illustrate the fundamentally complex…

n-Dimensional pure gravity theory can be obtained as the effective theory of an n+1 model (with non-compact extra dimension) where general n+1 reparametrization invariance is explicitly broken in the extra dimension. As was pointed out in…

In this paper, a critical fourth-order Kirchhoff type elliptic equation with a subcritical perturbation is studied. The main feature of this problem is that it involves both a nonlocal coefficient and a critical term, which bring essential…
