Germs of rational functions~$h$ on points $p$ of smooth varieties~$S$ define germs of rational maps to the projective line. Assume that $p$ is in the indeterminacy locus of $h$. If $\pi:\hat{S}\to S$ is a birational map which is an…

In this article we obtain new irrationality measures for values of functions which belong to a certain class of hypergeometric functions including shifted logarithmic functions, binomial functions and shifted exponential functions. We…

Let $f$ and $g$ be Boolean functions over a finite Abelian group $\mathcal{G}$, where $g$ is fully known, and we have {\em query access} to $f$, that is, given any $x \in \mathcal{G}$ we can get the value $f(x)$. We study the tolerant…

Erd\H{o}s \cite{MR168482} proved that the Continuum Hypothesis (CH) is equivalent to the existence of an uncountable family $\mathcal{F}$ of (real or complex) analytic functions, such that $\big\{ f(x) \ : \ f \in \mathcal{F} \big\}$ is…

In the space of holomorphic functions in a convex domain it is studied the interpolation problem by means of sums of the series of exponentials converging uniformly on all compact sets of the domain. The discrete set of the interpolation…

Holomorphic functions are amazing because their values in an ever so small disk in the complex plane completely determine the function values at arbitrary points in their maximum possible domain. The process of extending such a function…

In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness theorem of entire solutions to the Lagrangian mean curvature equations with prescribed asymptotic behavior at infinity. The phase functions are assumed to be supercritical and…

In this work we examine the stability of some classes of integrals, and in particular with respect to homogenization. The prototypical case is the homogenization of quadratic energies with periodic coefficients perturbed by a term vanishing…

Consider a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space $\cH$, with $dim(\cH) \geq 3$, define $\bS(\cH):= \{x\in \cH \:|\: ||x||=1\}$, and let $\nu_\cH$ be the unique regular Borel positive measure invariant under the action of the unitary…

Let f be a G-function (in the sense of Siegel), and x be an algebraic number; assume that the value f(x) is a real number. As a special case of a more general result, we show that f(x) can be written as g(1), where g is a G-function with…

For an analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_kz^k$ on a neighbourhood of a closed disc $D\subset {\bf C}$, we give assumptions, in terms of the Taylor coefficients $a_k$ of $f$, under which the number of intersection points of the…

An application of (iterated) Bauer-Muir acceleration can give an Ap\'ery-like continued fraction for $\pi$ with irrational coefficients, and much faster convergence. It can be considered a generalized continued fraction with the same matrix…

We investigate problems related with the existence of square integrable holomorphic functions on (unbounded) balanced domains. In particular, we solve the problem of Wiegerinck for balanced domains in dimension two. We also give a…

A correspondence between arbitrary Fourier series and certain analytic functions on the unit disk of the complex plane is established. The expression of the Fourier coefficients is derived from the structure of complex analysis. The…

Effective periods were defined by Kontsevich and Zagier as complex numbers whose real and imaginary parts are values of absolutely convergent integrals of $\mathbb{Q}$-rational functions over $\mathbb{Q}$-semi-algebraic domains in…

Let $L$ be a simply-connected simple connected algebraic group over a number field $F$, and $H$ be a semisimple absolutely maximal connected $F$-subgroup of $L$. Under a cohomological condition, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number…

A rational function of degree at least two with coefficients in an algebraically closed field is post-critically finite (PCF) if all of its critical points have finite forward orbit under iteration. We show that the collection of PCF…

This is an extended version of an invited lecture I gave at the Journees Arithmetiques in St. Etienne in July 2009. We discuss the state of the art regarding the problem of finding the set of rational points on a (smooth projective)…

We study the determination of a holomorphic function from its absolute value. Given a parameter $\theta \in \mathbb{R}$, we derive the following characterization of uniqueness in terms of rigidity of a set $\Lambda \subseteq \mathbb{R}$: if…
