Let u be a solution to a quasi-linear Klein-Gordon equation in one-space dimension, $\Box u + u = P (u, $\partial$\_t u, $\partial$\_x u; $\partial$\_t $\partial$\_x u, $\partial$^2\_x u)$ , where P is a homogeneous polynomial of degree…
We show that if $\mathcal{L}_1$ and $\mathcal{L}_2$ are linear transformations from $\mathbb{Z}^d$ to $\mathbb{Z}^d$ satisfying certain mild conditions, then, for any finite subset $A$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $$|\mathcal{L}_1 A+\mathcal{L}_2…
Given an arbitrary (commutative) field K, let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K) consisting of matrices of rank lesser than or equal to some r<n. A theorem of Atkinson and Lloyd states that, if dim V>nr-r+1 and #K>r, then either all the…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the nonstationary discrete p-Laplacian with inhomogeneous density \r{ho}(x) on an infinite graph which supports the Sobolev inequality. For nonnegative solutions when p > 2, we prove the precise rate of…
Recently, the first two authors proved the Alon-Jaeger-Tarsi conjecture on non-vanishing linear maps, for large primes. We extend their ideas to address several other related conjectures. We prove the weak Additive Basis conjecture proposed…
For any $n>1$ and $0<\varepsilon<1/2$, we show the existence of an $n^{O(1)}$-point subset $X$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that any linear map from $(X,\ell_2)$ to $\ell_2^m$ with distortion at most $1+\varepsilon$ must have $m = \Omega(\min\{n,…
In this paper, we derive a tight upper bound for the size of an intersecting $k$-Sperner family of subspaces of the $n$-dimensional vector space $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ over finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ which gives a $q$-analogue of the…
In this paper we consider reduction maps $r_{v} : K_{2n+1}(F)/C_{F} \to K_{2n+1}(\kappa_{v})_{l}$ where $F$ is a number field and $C_{F}$ denotes the subgroup of $K_{2n+1}(F)$ generated by $l$-parts (for all primes $l$) of kernels of the…
Let $F := (f_1, \ldots, f_p) \colon {\Bbb R}^n \to {\Bbb R}^p$ be a polynomial map, and suppose that $S := \{x \in {\Bbb R}^n \ : \ f_i(x) \le 0, i = 1, \ldots, p\} \ne \emptyset.$ Let $d := \max_{i = 1, \ldots, p} \deg f_i$ and…
We provide a doubly exponential upper bound in $p$ on the size of forbidden pivot-minors for symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}$ of linear rank-width at most $p$. As a corollary, we obtain a doubly…
We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose…
We prove a generalization of the Davenport-Heilbronn theorem to quotients of ideal class groups of quadratic fields by the primes lying above a fixed set of rational primes $S$. Additionally, we obtain average sizes for the relaxed Selmer…
Let $G$ be a compact connected subgroup of $SO(n+1)$. In $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, we gain interior $G$-symmetry for minimal hypersurfaces and hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature (CMC) which have $G$-invariant boundaries and $G$-invariant…
We give a lower bound for the size of a subset of $\mathbb F_q^n$ containing a rich k-plane in every direction, a k-plane Furstenberg set. The chief novelty of our method is that we use arguments on non-reduced subschemes and flat families…
For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d, k$ and $\ell$, a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}^d$ is called $(k,\ell)$-nearly orthogonal if all vectors in $A$ are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ vectors in $A$ contain $\ell + 1$ pairwise…
We consider a Cauchy problem for an overdetermined system of PDEs, and give necessary and sufficient conditions for solvability of this Cauchy problem for all data. As an application, we find all real tube hypersurfaces in complex space…
Let K \subset L be a field extension. Given K-subspaces A,B of L, we study the subspace spanned by the product set AB = {ab | a \in A, b \in B}. We obtain some lower bounds on the dimension of this subspace and on dim B^n in terms of dim A,…
For any Tychonoff space $X$ let $D(X)$ be either the set $C(X)$ of all continuous functions on $X$ or the set $C^*(X)$ of all bounded continuous functions on $X$. When $D(X)$ is endowed with the point convergence topology, we write…
We continue our study of matrix models of dually weighted graphs. Among the attractive features of these models is the possibility to interpolate between ensembles of regular and random two-dimensional lattices, relevant for the study of…
A $(k,m)$-Furstenberg set is a subset $S \subset \mathbb{F}_q^n$ with the property that each $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ can be translated so that it intersects $S$ in at least $m$ points. Ellenberg and Erman proved that…
