Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra and $I$ be a closed ideal in $A$. For $x\in A$, its image under the canonical surjection $A\to A/I$ is denoted by $\dot x$, and the spectral radius of $x$ is denoted by $r(x)$. We prove that $$\max\{r(x), \|\dot…

We introduce a class of toposes called "absolutely locally compact" toposes and of "admissible" sheaf of rings over such toposes. To any such ringed topos $(\mathcal{T},A)$ we attach an involutive convolution algebra…

We construct classes in the motivic cohomology of certain 1-parameter families of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric Fano n-folds, with applications to local mirror symmetry (growth of genus 0 instanton numbers) and inhomogeneous…

We discuss the shrinking target property of irrational rotations. We obtain the condition of an irrational $\theta$ and monotone increasing $\varphi(n)$ such that $$ \liminf_{n \to \infty} n \varphi (n) \| n\theta - s \| = 0 \text{ for…

Tarski initiated a logic-based approach to formal geometry that studies first-order structures with a ternary betweenness relation (\beta) and a quaternary equidistance relation (\equiv). Tarski established, inter alia, that the first-order…

We show uniqueness for overdetermined elliptic problems defined on topological disks $\Omega$ with $C^2$ boundary, i.e., positive solutions $u$ to $\Delta u + f(u)=0$ in $\Omega \subset (M^2,g)$ so that $u = 0$ and $\frac{\partial…

We consider skew product extension of irrational rotations on the circle by $\Z^2$ determined by an integer valued function as well as a fixed point on the circle. We study ergodic components of such extension.

Consider a normal function $f$ on the ordinals (i. e. a function $f$ that is strictly increasing and continuous at limit stages). By enumerating the fixed points of $f$ we obtain a faster normal function $f'$, called the derivative of $f$.…

For a subfield K of C, we denote by C^K the category of algebras of functions defined on the globally subanalytic sets that are generated by all K-powers and logarithms of positively-valued globally subanalytic functions. For any function f…

Given a morphism of (small) groupoids with injective object map, we provide sufficient and necessary conditions under which the induction and co-induction functors between the categories of linear representations are naturally isomorphic. A…

Given a complete, cocomplete category $\mathcal C$, we investigate the problem of describing those small categories $I$ such that the diagonal functor $\Delta:\mathcal C\to {\rm Functors}(I,\mathcal C)$ is a Frobenius functor. This…

A classical theorem of Kuratowski says that every Baire one function on a G_\delta subspace of a Polish (= separable completely metrizable) space X can be extended to a Baire one function on X. Kechris and Louveau introduced a finer…

Building on work of J. Robinson and A. Shlapentokh, we develop a general framework to obtain definability and decidability results of large classes of infinite algebraic extensions of $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$. As an application, we show that for…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $\Gamma$ a commutative monoid of finite type. We study algebraic properties of modules and derivations over the associated ring $\mathcal F(\Gamma,R)$ of Dirichlet convolutions. If $\Gamma$ is cancellative…

We generalize our work on Carlitz prime power torsion extension to torsion extensions of Drinfeld modules of arbitrary rank. As in the Carlitz case, we give a description of these extensions in terms of evaluations of Anderson generating…

This text is an updated version of material used for a course at Universit\'e de Nantes, part of `Functor homology and applications', April 23-27, 2012. The proof by Touz\'e of my conjecture on cohomological finite generation (CFG) has been…

We classify irreducible integrable modules with finite-dimensional weight spaces for toroidal Lie algebras coordinated by rational quantum torus with trivial central action. Let $\mathbb{C}_q$ denote the rational quantum torus associated…

We prove that a function, which is defined on a union of lines $\mathbb{C} E$ through the origin in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with direction vectors in $E\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ and is holomorphic of fixed finite order and finite type along each line,…

We extend some recent results on the differentiability of torsion theories. In particular, we generalize the concept of $(\alpha, \beta)$-derivation to $(\alpha, \beta)$-higher derivation and demonstrate that a filter of a hereditary…

In this note we classify two-dimensional continued fractions for cubic irrationalities constructed by matrices with not large norm ($|*| \le 6$). The classification is based on the following new result: the class of matrices with an…
