We study spurious second-order stationary points and local minima in a nonconvex low-rank formulation of sum-of-squares optimization on a real variety $X$. We reformulate the problem of finding a spurious local minimum in terms of syzygies…

Algorithms for min-max optimization and variational inequalities are often studied under monotonicity assumptions. Motivated by non-monotone machine learning applications, we follow the line of works [Diakonikolas et al., 2021, Lee and Kim,…

We prove that the entropy function on the moduli space of real quadratic rational maps is not monotonic by exhibiting a continuum of disconnected level sets. This entropy behavior is in stark contrast with the case of polynomial maps, and…

We study the discrete dynamics of standard (or left) polynomials $f(x)$ over division rings $D$. We define their fixed points to be the points $\lambda \in D$ for which $f^{\circ n}(\lambda)=\lambda$ for any $n \in \mathbb{N}$, where…

It is proved that all special flows over the rotation by an irrational $\alpha$ with bounded partial quotients and under $f$ which is piecewise absolutely continuous with a non-zero sum of jumps are mildly mixing. Such flows are also shown…

We obtain explicit upper and lower bounds on the norms of the spectral projections of the non-self-adjoint harmonic oscillator. Some of our results apply to a variety of other families of orthogonal polynomials.

We study the existence of asymptotically $Z$-stable (a.Z stable) bundles over polycyclic surfaces. Our choice of polynomial central charge is related to the existence of solutions of the deformed Hermitian--Yang--Mills equations, with…

The present paper is a continuation of the author's previous works, in which necessary and sufficient local extrema at a stationary point of a polynomial or a power series (and thus of an analytic function) are given. It is known that for…

Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices with adjacency matrix $A_G$. Associated to $G$ is a polynomial $d_G(x_1,\dots, x_n)$ of degree $n$ in $n$ variables, obtained as the determinant of the matrix $M_G(x_1,\dots,x_n)$, where…
