We consider three classes of linear differential equations on distribution functions, with a fractional order $\alpha\in [0,1].$ The integer case $\alpha =1$ corresponds to the three classical extreme families. In general, we show that…

We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…

The famous theorem of Belyi can be viewed as a characterization of compact Riemann surfaces which admit a non-empty open subset uniformized by a subgroup of $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ of finite index. I show that if $q\geq 5$, then ${\bf F}_q(T)$…

We study the finiteness of low degree points on certain modular curves and their Atkin--Lehner quotients, and, as an application, prove the modularity of elliptic curves over all but finitely many totally real fields of degree $5$. On the…

We study ruled submanifolds of Euclidean space. First, to each (parametrized) ruled submanifold $\sigma$, we associate an integer-valued function, called degree, measuring the extent to which $\sigma$ fails to be cylindrical. In particular,…

Rational double points are the simplest surface singularities. In this essay we will be mainly concerned with the geometry of the exceptional set corresponding to the resolution of a rational double point. We will derive the classification…

This paper investigates functions from $\mathbb{R}^d$ to $\mathbb{R} \cup \{\pm \infty\}$ that satisfy axioms of linearity wherever allowed by extended-value arithmetic. They have a nontrivial structure defined inductively on $d$, and…

We show that for fields that are of characteristic 0 or algebraically closed of characteristic greater than 5, that certain classes of Leibniz algebras are 2-recognizeable. These classes are solvable, strongly solvable and super solvable.…

Let $B$ be a fixed rational function of one complex variable of degree at least two. In this paper, we study solutions of the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$ in rational functions $A$ and $X$. Our main result states that, unless $B$…

We show that the conditions imposed on a second order linear differential equation with rational coefficients on the complex line by requiring it to have regular singularities with fixed exponents at the points of a finite set $P$ and…

We classify projective plane nonsingular curves admitting a 3-term presentation; they exist in any degree, generally constitute 5 birational families and are defined over rational numbers. The Belyi functions on all these curves are…

In 1990 Kechris and Louveau developed the theory of three very natural ranks on the Baire class $1$ functions. A rank is a function assigning countable ordinals to certain objects, typically measuring their complexity. We extend this theory…

We study a class of overdetermined algebraic systems of equations. We prove that the number of distinct solutions equals to the maximal possible if and only if certain matrices are commuting and semisimple. This gives a characterization of…

We classify all the \emph{$\Delta$-}coherent pairs of measures of the second kind on the real line. We obtain $5$ cases, corresponding to all the families of discrete semiclassical orthogonal polynomials of class $s\leq1.$

This paper considers the problem of maximizing multiple linear functions over the probability simplex. A classification of feasible points is indicated. A necessary and sufficient condition for a member of each class to be an efficient…

For any $n$ nonnegative integer a family of groups, denoted by $ \mathcal{D}_n $, was introduce by Bianchi et al., as the collection of all finite groups with exactly $n$ conjugacy classes of nontrivial, non self-normalizing subgroups. It…

Riemann's Existence Theorem gives the following bijections: (1) Isomorphism classes of Belyi maps of degree $d$. (2) Equivalence classes of generating systems of degree $d$. (3) Isomorphism classes of dessins d'enfants with $d$ edges. In…

Let n,d be positive integers, with d even (say d=2e). Let X_(n,d) denote the locus of degree d hypersurfaces in P^n which consist of two e-fold hyperplanes. We bound the regularity of the ideal of this variety. Moreover, we show that this…

Over fields of characteristic zero, we show that for $n=1,d\geq4$ or $n=2,d\geq5$ or $n\geq3, d\geq 2n$, the generic $m$-marked degree-$d$ hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ admits the $m$ marked points as all the rational points. Over…

We solve three enumerative problems concerning families of planar maps. More precisely, we establish algebraic equations for the generating function of non-separable triangulations in which all vertices have degree at least d, for a certain…
