In the present paper we establish sharp pointwise estimates on the polyharmonic Green function and its derivatives in an arbitrary bounded open set.

We provide Green's function estimates for parabolic operators on polyhedrons and polyhedral cones in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These estimates incorporate mixed weights, which include appropriate powers of the distances to the vertices, the edges,…

At the 1987 Ramanujan Centenary meeting Dyson asked for a coherent group-theoretical structure for Ramanujan's mock theta functions analogous to Hecke's theory of modular forms. Many of Ramanujan's mock theta functions can be written in…

We show that cluster algorithms for quantum models have a meaning independent of the basis chosen to construct them. Using this idea, we propose a new method for measuring with little effort a whole class of Green's functions, once a…

This paper is about a family of symmetric rational functions that form a one-parameter generalization of the classical Hall-Littlewood polynomials. We introduce two sets of (skew and non-skew) functions that are akin to P and Q…

We examine the rationality conjecture which states that (a) the formal power series $\sum_{r\ge 1} \tc_{r+1}(X)\cdot x^r$ represents a rational function of $x$ with a single pole of order 2 at $x=1$ and (b) the leading coefficient of the…

We study rational functions over finite fields under PGL-equivalence. We say that $f, g \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ are \emph{equivalent} if there exist $\psi, \phi \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g = \psi \circ f \circ \phi$. Most…

Let $G$ be a multiplicative subgroup of the prime field $\mathbb F_p$ of size $|G|> p^{1-\kappa}$ and $r$ an arbitrarily fixed positive integer. Assuming $\kappa=\kappa(r)>0$ and $p$ large enough, it is shown that any proportional subset…

We consider the amusing sequence of functions $f_n: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ given by $$ f_n(x) = \sum_{k=1}^{n}{\frac{|\sin{(k \pi x)}|}{k}}.$$ Every rational point is eventually the location of a strict local minimum of $f_n$:…

Let $p$ be an odd natural number $\ge 3$. Inspired by results from Euclid's {\em Elements}, we express the irrational $$y=\sqrt[p]{d+\sqrt R}, $$ whose degree is $2p$, as a polynomial function of irrationals of degrees $\le p$. In certain…

A set $\mathcal{S}$ of points in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is called a rationally parameterisable hypersurface if $\mathcal{S}=\{\boldsymbol{\sigma}(\mathbf{t}): \mathbf{t} \in D\}$, where $\boldsymbol{\sigma}: \mathbb{R}^{n-1} \rightarrow…

The solid-angle sum $A_{\mathcal{P}} (t)$ of a rational polytope ${\mathcal{P}} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, with $t \in \mathbb{Z}$ was first investigated by I.G. Macdonald. Using our Fourier-analytic methods, we are able to establish an…

For a group $G$ acting over a set $X$, the set of all the $G$-equivariant functions, i.e., the set of functions which conmute with the action, ($g\cdot f(x)=g\cdot f(x), \forall g\in G, \forall x\in X$), is a monoid with the composition.…

Motivated by the result that an `approximate' evaluation of the Jones polynomial of a braid at a $5^{th}$ root of unity can be used to simulate the quantum part of any algorithm in the quantum complexity class BQP, and results relating BQP…

A Green's function based solver for the modified Bessel equation has been developed with the primary motivation of solving the Poisson equation in cylindrical geometries. The method is implemented using a Discrete Hankel Transform and a…

We describe a combinatorial approach for investigating properties of rational numbers. The overall approach rests on structural bijections between rational numbers and familiar combinatorial objects, namely rooted trees. We emphasize that…

Gross and Zagier defined certain `higher Green's functions' on products of modular curves and conjectured that the value of these functions at complex multiplication points should be logarithms of algebraic numbers. This is now a theorem of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and define $$G_p(x)=\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\left(x-e^{2\pi i k^2/p}\right).$$ In this paper we study values of $G_p(x)$ at roots of unity via Galois theory, and confirm some previous conjectures. For example, for any…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$, a quasiplurisubharmonic function is called a Green function with pole at $p\in X$ if its Monge-Amp\`ere measure is supported at $p$. We study in this paper the existence and properties of such…

Let $c_n$ denote the number of nodes at a distance $n$ from the root of a rooted tree. A criterion for proving the rationality and computing the rational generating function of the sequence $\{c_n\}$ is described. This criterion is applied…
