We study lower bounds for the self-intersection of the canonical divisor of "canonical varieties" (i.e. varieties whose canonical linear system gives a birational map). We give some improvements for the known results in the case of surfaces…
Denoting by ${\mathcal L}_d(m_0,m_1,...,m_r)$ the linear system of plane curves passing through $r+1$ generic points $p_0,p_1,...,p_r$ of the projective plane with multiplicity $m_i$ (or larger) at each $p_i$, we prove the…
A full theory for hinged beams and degenerate plates with multiple intermediate piers is developed. The analysis starts with the variational setting and the study of the linear stationary problem in one dimension. Well-posedness results are…
The paper deals with a complex polynomial $H$ in two variables having - a generic highest homogeneous part (without multiple zero lines), - nonconstant lower terms. In particular, under these conditions the polynomial $H$ has at least two…
We give lower bounds on the largest singular value of arbitrary matrices, some of which are asymptotically tight for almost all matrices. To study when these bounds are exact, we introduce several combinatorial concepts. In particular, we…
Some monotone increasing sequences of the lower bounds for the minimum eigenvalue of $M$-matrices are given. It is proved that these sequences are convergent and improve some existing results. Numerical examples show that these sequences…
In the paper we prove Harbourne-Hirschowitz conjecture for quasi-homogeneous linear systems on $\mathbb P^2$ for $m=7$, 8, 9, 10, i.e. systems of curves of given degree passing through points in general position with multiplicities at least…
The discrete multiscale analysis for boundary value problems in nonlinear discrete systems leads to a first order discrete modulational instability above a threshold amplitude for wave numbers beyond the zero of group velocity dispersion.…
A class of piecewise affine hyperbolic maps on a bounded subset of the plane is considered. It is shown that if a map from this class is sufficiently area-expanding then almost surely this map has an absolutely continuous invariant measure.
In this note we apply a spectral method to the graph of alternating bilinear forms. In this way, we obtain upper bounds on the size of an alternating rank-metric code for given values of the minimum rank distance. We computationally compare…
We introduce characteristic numbers of a finite commutative unital $\mathbb{C}$-algebra, which are numerical invariants arising from algebraic intersection theory. We characterize Gorenstein and local complete intersection algebras in terms…
Brun's constant is $B=\sum_{p \in P_{2}} p^{-1} + (p+2)^{-1}$, where the summation is over all twin primes. We improve the unconditional bounds on Brun's constant to $1.840503 < B < 2.288513$, which is about a 13\% improvement on the…
This paper focuses on the stability of self-adjointness of linear relations under perturbations in Hilbert spaces. It is shown that a self-adjoint relation is still self-adjoint under bounded and relatively bounded perturbations. The…
We give lower bounds on the case of worst inhomogeneous approximation.
Error bounds have been studied for more than seventy years, beginning with the seminal result of Hoffman (1952) [{\it J. Res. Natl. Bur. Standards}, 49 (1952), 263--265], which establishes an upper bound for the distance from an arbitrary…
Upper bounds on the maximum number of codewords in a binary code of a given length and minimum Hamming distance are considered. New bounds are derived by a combination of linear programming and counting arguments. Some of these bounds…
Combined perturbation bounds are presented for eigenvalues and eigenspaces of Hermitian matrices or singular values and singular subspaces of general matrices. The bounds are derived based on the smooth decompositions and elementary…
In this paper we present an explicit formula for the number of permutations with a given number of alternating descents. Moreover, we study the interlacing property of the real parts of the zeros of the generating polynomials of these…
We obtain approximation results for general positive linear operators satisfying mild conditions, when acting on discontinuous functions and absolutely continuous functions having discontinuous derivatives. The upper bounds, given in terms…
We give an upper bound on the total variation distance between the linear eigenvalue statistic, properly scaled and centred, of a random matrix with a variance profile and the standard Gaussian random variable. The second order Poincar\'e…
