We investigate deformations of Milnor algebras of smooth homogeneous polynomials, and prove in particular that any smooth degree $d$ homogeneous polynomial in $n+1$ variables that is not of Sebastiani-Thom type is determined by the degree…

We propose a new test for the hypothesis that a bivariate copula is an Archimedean copula. The test statistic is based on a combination of two measures resulting from the characterization of Archimedean copulas by the property of…

Despite ongoing research, testing the flatness of discrete-time systems remains a challenging problem. To date, only the property of forward-flatness - a special case of difference-flatness - can be checked in a computationally efficient…

Topological tests to detect degeneracies of Hamiltonians have been put forward in the past. Here, we address the applicability of a recently proposed test [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 92}, 060406 (2004)] for degeneracies of real Hamiltonian…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex algebraic variety. An old question of Borel and Haefliger asks whether any (possibly singular) algebraic subvariety of $X$ is homologically equivalent to a linear combination with integral coefficients…
