We obtain a complete description of the planar cubic Cayley graphs, providing an explicit presentation and embedding for each of them. This turns out to be a rich class, comprising several infinite families. We obtain counterexamples to…

One of the aims of this article is to provide a class of polynomial mappings for which the Jacobian conjecture is true. Also, we state and prove several global univalence theorems and present a couple of applications of them.

Let $(\mathcal{O}_n, \mathfrak{m})$ denote the ring of germs of holomorphic functions $\mathbb{C}^n\to \mathbb{C}$, and let $I\subseteq \mathcal{O}_n$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. Demailly and Pham showed that $\mathrm{lct}(I) \geq…

In the context of commutative $C^*$-algebras we solve a problem related to a question of M. Rieffel by showing that the all-units rank and the norm-one rank coincide with the topological stable rank. We also introduce the notion of unitary…

We show that there exists a $C^2$ open dense set of convex bodies with smooth boundary whose billiard map exhibits a non-trivial hyperbolic basic set. As a consequence billiards in generic convex bodies have positive topological entropy and…

We revisit a subexponential bound for the $abc$ conjecture due to the first author, and we establish a variation of it using linear forms in logarithms. As an application, we prove an unconditional subexponential bound towards the $4$-terms…

In this paper, it is shown that a Wulff shape is strictly convex if and only if its convex integrand is of class $C^1$. Moreover, applications of this result are given.

We study the existence of unitriangular basic sets for the symmetric group which behave nicely with respect to the Mullineux involution. Such sets give a natural labelling for the modular irreducible representations. We show that, for any…

In this paper we prove that for circulants of squarefree orders Wilson's conjecture hold, that is each nontrivially unstable circulant of such order has Wilson type. We show that actually only criteria (C.1) and (C.4) are needed.

In this article, we extend some results about algebra $A$ with the group of units $U(A)$ having a special polynomial identity, Laurent polynomial. And we present a new version of B. Hartley Conjecture with these identities.

We obtain explicit upper bounds for the number of irreducible factors for a class of compositions of polynomials in several variables over a given field. In particular, some irreducibility criteria are given for this class of compositions…

We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e., the cofinality of ^{lambda}lambda, is strictly bigger than cov_lambda(meagre), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…

In the paper we obtain the asymtotic number of integral quadratic polynomials with bounded heights and discriminants as the upper bound of heights tends to infinity.

A paper of the first author and Zilke proposed seven combinatorial problems around formulas for the characteristic polynomial and the exponents of an isolated quasihomogeneous singularity. The most important of them was a conjecture on the…

In this paper, we investigate some properties of q-Bernoulli polynomi- als arising from q-umbral calculus. Finally, we derive some interesting identities of q-Bernoulli polynomials from our investigation.

For every $n \geq 1$, we present examples of algebras $A$ having dominant dimension $n$, such that the algebra $B=End_A(I_0 \oplus \Omega^{-n}(A))$ has dominant dimension different from $n$, where $I_0$ is the injective hull of $A$. This…

We prove that there exist infinitely many rationals a, b and c with the property that a^2-1, b^2-1, c^2-1, ab-1, ac-1 and bc-1 are all perfect squares. This provides a solution to a variant of the problem studied by Diophantus and Euler.

The paper [GLZ] "L-functions of Carlitz modules, resultantal varieties and rooted binary trees" is devoted to a description of some resultantal varieties related to L-functions of Carlitz modules. It contains a conjecture that some of these…

We show that commutators of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms may have arbitrarily large Hofer norm. The proposed technique is applicable to positive genus surfaces and their products. This gives partial answer to a question by McDuff and…
