We prove that if a separable metrizable $X$ is a union of two disjoint 0-dimensional sets $E$, $F$, $E$ is absolutely $G_{\delta}$ and $F$ is absolutely $F_{\sigma\delta}$ then there is a closed embedding $h$ into the union of countable…

We give an algorithm to decide whether an algebraic plane foliation F has a rational first integral and to compute it in the affirmative case. The algorithm runs whenever we assume the polyhedrality of the cone of curves of the surface…

We present a geometric way of describing the irrationality of a number using the area of a circular sector $A(r)$. We establish a connection between this and the continued fraction expansion of the number, and prove bounds for $A(r)$ as…

Let $\Omega$ be a connected bounded domain on the complex plane, $S$ be its boundary, which is closed, star-shaped, $C^1$-smooth, and $H(\Omega)$ is the set of analytic (holomorphic) in $\Omega$ functions. The aim of this paper is to prove…

In this paper, we simplify and improve the constant, $c$, that appears in effective irrationality measures, $|(a/b)^{m/n}-p/q|>c|q|^{-(\kappa+1)}$, obtained from the hypergeometric method for $a/b$ near $1$. The dependence of $c$ on $|a|$…

In this paper we present a geometric proof of the following fact. Let $D$ be a Jordan domain in $\mathbb{C}$, and let $f$ be analytic on $cl(D)$. Then there is an injective analytic map $\phi:D\to\mathbb{C}$, and a polynomial $p$, such that…

A period of a rational integral is the result of integrating, with respect to one or several variables, a rational function over a closed path. This work focuses particularly on periods depending on a parameter: in this case the period…

Let $a, Q\in\Q$ be given and consider the set $\cal{G}(a, Q)=\{aQ^{i}:\;i\in\N\}$ of terms of geometric progression with 0th term equal to $a$ and the quotient $Q$. Let $f\in\Q(x, y)$ and $\cal{V}_{f}$ be the set of finite values of $f$. We…

We consider all genus 2 curves over Q given by an equation y^2 = f(x) with f a squarefree polynomial of degree 5 or 6, with integral coefficients of absolute value at most 3. For each of these roughly 200000 isomorphism classes of curves,…

Let G be a finite group, (g_{1},...,g_{r}) an (unordered) r-tuple of G^{(r)} and x_{i,g_i}'s variables that correspond to the g_i's, i=1,...,r. Let F<x_{1,g_1},...,x_{r,g_r}> be the corresponding free G-graded algebra where F is a field of…

Suppose that $F$ is a smooth and connected complex surface (not necessarily compact) containing a smooth rational curve with positive self-intersection. We prove that if there exists a non-constant meromorphic function on $F$, then the…

We obtain a compactness result for $\Gamma$-convergence of integral functionals defined on $\mathcal{A}$-free vector fields. This is used to study homogenization problems for these functionals without periodicity assumptions. More…

The theory of fractional calculus in the complex plane was not built with a specific application in mind. The main obstacle to application was the difficulty with obtaining analytic continuations of fractional derivatives and integrals. It…

Consider an algebraic function like $F(x) = \sqrt{x^3 - 1}$. If $p \in \mathbb{Q}$ is a rational number, how many iterates of $p$ under $F$ can also be rational? The dynamics of algebraic functions may be formalized in the language of…

We show that a function $f : X \to \mathbb R$ defined on a closed uniformly polynomially cuspidal set $X$ in $\mathbb R^n$ is real analytic if and only if $f$ is smooth and all its composites with germs of polynomial curves in $X$ are real…

Let $D_{p,q}$ and $D_{p',q'}$ be irreducible bounded symmetric domains of the first kind with rank $q$ and $q'$, respectively and let $f:D_{p,q}\to D_{p',q'}$ be a proper holomorphic map that extends $C^2$ up to the boundary. In this paper…

We extend the pseudoholomorphic curve methods from Floer theory to infinite-dimensional phase spaces and use our results to prove the existence of a forced time-periodic solution to a general Hamiltonian PDE with regularizing nonlinearity.…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. An element F from k(x_1,...,x_n) is called a closed rational function if the subfield k(F) is algebraically closed in the field k(x_1,...,x_n). We prove that a rational function…

Implicitly described domains are a well established tool in the simulation of time dependent problems, e.g. using level-set methods. In order to solve partial differential equations on such domains, a range of numerical methods was…

In \cite{d4}, we gave a method to construct a continued fraction of the function $F(x):=e^{x}E_{1}(x)$. More precisely we define $F_{1}(x)$ as the reciprocal of $F(x)$ and we inductively define $F_{m}(x)$ as the reciprocal of ``$F_{m-1}(x)$…
