J. Elton proved that every normalized weakly null sequence in a Banach space admits a subsequence that is nearly unconditional which is a weak form of unconditionality. The notion of near-unconditionality is quantified by a constant…

It is shown that with appropriate boundary conditions, a real function satisfying the differential equation $f'(x) = f(x+a)$ has all known properties of the sine function. A number of elementary derivations are presented including proofs…

The problem of expressing an element of K_2(F) in a more explicit form gives rise to many works. To avoid a restrictive condition in a work of Tate, Browkin considered cyclotomic elements as the candidate for the element with an explicit…

Let $K$ be a number field or a function field of characteristic 0. If $K$ is a number field, assume the $abc$-conjecture for $K$. We prove a variant of Zsigmondy's theorem for ramified primes in preimage fields of rational functions in…

A geometric first-order axiomatization of differentially closed fields of characteristic zero with several commuting derivations, in the spirit of Pierce-Pillay, is formulated in terms of a relative notion of prolongation for Kolchin-closed…

The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…

The main result of this paper is the following theorem. Let q be a prime, A an elementary abelian group of order q^3. Suppose that A acts as a coprime group of automorphisms on a profinite group G in such a manner that C_G(a)' is periodic…

Let $[a,b] $ be an interval in $\mathbb{R}$ and let $F$ be a real valued function defined at the endpoints of $[a,b]$ and with a certain number of discontinuities within $[a,b] $. Having assumed $F$ to be differentiable on a set $[a,b]…

Given an element of the Bloch group of a number field~$F$ and a natural number~$n$, we construct an explicit unit in the field $F_n=F(e^{2 \pi i/n})$, well-defined up to $\nn$-th powers of nonzero elements of~$F_n$. The construction uses…

Let K be an Abstract Elementary Class. Under the asusmptions that K has a nicely behaved forking-like notion, regular types and existence of some prime models we establish a decomposition theorem for such classes. The decomposition implies…

Let K be any field and G be a finite group. Noether's problem asks whether the fixed field is rational (=purely transcendental) over K. We will prove that if G is a non-abelian p-group of order p^n containing a cyclic subgroup of index p…

Let $M$ be a non-compact connected manifold with a cocompact and properly discontinuous action of a discrete group $G$. We establish a Poincar\'{e}-Hopf theorem for a bounded vector field on $M$ satisfying a mild condition on zeros. As an…

Let k be a number field, and denote by k^[d] the compositum of all degree d extensions of k in a fixed algebraic closure. We first consider the question of whether all algebraic extensions of k of degree less than d lie in k^[d]. We show…

Let $P_1,\dots,P_m\in\mathbb{Z}[y]$ be any linearly independent polynomials with zero constant term. We show that there exists a $\gamma>0$ such that any subset of $\mathbb{F}_q$ of size at least $q^{1-\gamma}$ contains a nontrivial…

Let $q$ be an even prime power and $m\geq2$ an integer. By $\mathbb{F}_q$, we denote the finite field of order $q$ and by $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$ its extension degree $m$. In this paper we investigate the existence of a primitive normal pair…

In this paper we prove a new version of Kransoselskii's fixed-point theorem under a ($\psi, \theta, \varphi$)-weak contraction condition. The theoretical result is applied to prove the existence of a solution of the following fractional…

Let $q=p^k$ be a prime power, let $n\geq2$ be an integer and let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field. It is shown that the set of primitive normal elements is a Salem set. Furthermore, it is proved that this set is strongly equidistributed…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$. We say that a point $P \in A(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ is primitive if there is no $Q \in A(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ defined on the field of definition of $P$ over $K$ such that…
