The classification of natural exponential families started with the paper \cite {Morri} where Carl Morris unifies six very familiar families by the fact that their variance functions are polynomials of degree less or equal to two. Extension…

Illusie has suggested that one should think of the classifying group of $M_X^{gp}$-torsors on a logarithmically smooth curve $X$ over a standard logarithmic point as a logarithmic analogue of the Picard group of $X$. This logarithmic Picard…

Given a right-infinite word $\bf x$ over a finite alphabet $A$, the rank of $\bf x$ is the size of the smallest set $S$ of words over $A$ such that $\bf x$ can be realized as an infinite concatenation of words in $S$. We show that the…

We consider a real-valued function $f$ defined on the set of infinite branches $X$ of a countably branching pruned tree $T$. The function $f$ is said to be a \textit{limsup function} if there is a function $u \colon T \to \mathbb{R}$ such…

Some zeta functions which are naturally attached to the locally homogeneous vector bundles over compact locally symmetric spaces of rank one are investigated. We prove that such functions can be expressed in terms of entire functions whose…

Motivated by a problem in computational complexity, we consider the behavior of rank functions for tensors and polynomial maps under random coordinate restrictions. We show that, for a broad class of rank functions called natural rank…

We define a functor which gives the "global rank of a quiver representation" and prove that it has nice properties which make it a generalization of the rank of a linear map. We demonstrate how to construct other "rank functors" for a…

The notion of bounded expansion captures uniform sparsity of graph classes and renders various algorithmic problems that are hard in general tractable. In particular, the model-checking problem for first-order logic is fixed-parameter…

For every natural number k we prove a decomposition theorem for bounded measurable functions on compact abelian groups into a structured part, a quasi random part and a small error term. In this theorem quasi randomness is measured with the…

This paper presents a comprehensive study of a class of functions which approximate 1/|x| for large x but which are finite at the origin. These functions arise naturally in the study of atoms in strong magnetic fields where the so-called…

The main result is that when the genus is at least 3, the rank of the normal function function of the Ceresa cycle over the moduli space of curves has maximal rank. This result was proved independently by Z. Gao and S.-W. Zhang…

In this paper, we obtain asymptotic formulas for an infinite class of rank generating functions. As an application, we solve a conjecture of Andrews and Lewis on inequalities between certain ranks.

A topological space $X$ is called resolvable if it contains a dense subset with dense complement. Using only basic principles, we show that whenever the space $X$ has a resolving subset that can be written as an at most countably infinite…

Let X and Y be separable metrizable spaces, and f:X-->Y be a function. We want to recover f from its values on a small set via a simple algorithm. We show that this is possible if f is Baire class one, and in fact we get a characterization.…

We consider the concept of rank as a measure of the vertical levels and positions of elements of partially ordered sets (posets). We are motivated by the need for algorithmic measures on large, real-world hierarchically-structured data…

Let $K$ be a compact metric space. A real-valued function on $K$ is said to be of Baire class one (Baire-1) if it is the pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. In this paper, we study two well known ordinal indices of…

This paper focuses mainly on the ring of all bounded Baire one functions on a topological space. The uniform norm topology arises from the $\sup$-norm defined on the collection $B_1^*(X)$ of all bounded Baire one functions. With respect to…

We investigate the convexity problem for the Parisi functional defined on the space of the so-called functional ordered parameters in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. In the recent work of Panchenko [3], he proved that this functional is…

The classes of n-Wright-convex functions and n-Jensen-convex functions are compared with each other. It is shown that for any odd natural number $n$ the first one is the proper subclass of the second one. To reach this aim new tools…

We classify all rational functions whose branching pattern above {0, 1, infinity} satisfy a certain regularity condition with precisely d=5 exceptions. This work is motivated by solving second order linear differential equations, with d=5…
