We combine theoretical results from polytope domain meshing, generalized barycentric coordinates, and finite element exterior calculus to construct scalar- and vector-valued basis functions for conforming finite element methods on generic…

In 2022, S.D. Cohen and the two authors introduced and studied the concept of $(r, n)$-freeness on finite cyclic groups $G$ for suitable integers $r, n$, which is an arithmetic way of capturing elements of special forms that lie in the…

The bivariate difference filed $(\mathbb{F}(\alpha, \beta), \sigma)$ provides an algebraic framework for a sequence satisfying a recurrence of order two and it could transform the summation involving a sequence satisfying a recurrence of…

We introduce the notion of the \textit{principal element} of a Frobenius Lie algebra $\f$. The principal element corresponds to a choice of $F\in \f^*$ such that $F[-,-]$ non-degenerate. In many natural instances, the principal element is…

We present a new class of binary words: the prefix normal words. They are defined by the property that for any given length $k$, no factor of length $k$ has more $a$'s than the prefix of the same length. These words arise in the context of…

We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…

Let $q$ be a prime power and $n, r$ integers such that $r\mid q^n-1$. An element of $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ of multiplicative order $(q^n-1)/r$ is called \emph{$r$-primitive}. For any odd prime power $q$, we show that there exists a…

Matrices over the ring of formal power series are considered. Normal forms with respect to various sub-groups of the two-sided transformations are constructed. The construction is based on the special property of the action: it induces a…

In this paper we deal with analytic nonautonomous vector fields with a periodic time-dependancy, that we study near an equilibrium point. In a first part, we assume that the linearized system is split in two invariant subspaces E0 and E1.…

In a finite dimensional Hilbert space, each normalized vector (state) can be chosen as a member of an orthonormal basis of the space. We give a proof of this statement in a manner that seems to be more comprehensible for physics students…

Suppose that A is a subset of F_2^n of density as close to 1/3 as possible. We show that the A(F_2^n)-norm (that is the sum of the absolute values of the Fourier transform) of the characterstic function of A is bounded below by an absolute…

Let $d \geq 3$ be a natural number. We show that for all finite, non-empty sets $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ that are not contained in a translate of a hyperplane, we have \[ |A-A| \geq (2d-2)|A| - O_d(|A|^{1- \delta}),\] where $\delta >0$ is…

We introduce a finite element construction for use on the class of convex, planar polygons and show it obtains a quadratic error convergence estimate. On a convex n-gon satisfying simple geometric criteria, our construction produces 2n…

Let $D$ be a division ring with the center $F=Z(D)$. Suppose that $N$ is a normal subgroup of $D^*$ which is radical over $F$, that is, for any element $x\in N$, there exists a positive integer $n_x$, such that $x^{n_x}\in F$. In…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. Suppose the characteristic of $\mathbb{F}_q$ is not $2$ or $3$. In this paper, we prove an $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$-analogue of results…
