Spectral methods are renowned for their high accuracy and efficiency in solving partial differential equations. The Fourier pseudo-spectral method is limited to periodic domains and suffers from Gibbs oscillations in non-periodic problems.…

Consider degenerations of Abelian differentials with prescribed number and multiplicity of zeros and poles. Motivated by the theory of limit linear series, we define twisted canonical divisors on pointed nodal curves to study degenerate…

Dr. Ron Knott constructed a graph of all Primitive Pythagorean Triples (PPTs) with legs up to length 10,000, using Mathematica. The patterns are very interesting, suggesting conic sections. We show that they indeed are parabolic curves…

We introduce here Cartesian splines or, for short, C-splines. C- splines are piecewise polynomials which are defined on adjacent Cartesian coordinate systems and are Cr continuous throughout. The Cr continuity is enforced by constraining…

Pseudo-splines of integer order $(m,\ell)$ were introduced by Daubechies, Han, Ron, and Shen as a family which allows interpolation between the classical B-splines and the Daubechies' scaling functions. The purpose of this paper is to…

A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…

In order to construct quantum trigonometric B\'ezier curves with shape parameter, one parameter family of trigonometric Bernstein basis functions are introduced. We study the total positivity of the basis functions to analyze the shape…

We study closed smooth convex plane curves $\Gamma$ enjoying the following property: a pair of points $x,y$ can traverse $\Gamma$ so that the distances between $x$ and $y$ along the curve and in the ambient plane do not change; such curves…

By variational methods, we prove existence of planar closed curves with prescribed curvature for some classes of curvature functions. The main difficulty is to obtain bounded Palais-Smale sequences. This is achieved by adding a parameter in…

Probabilistic relaxations of graph cuts offer a differentiable alternative to spectral clustering, enabling end-to-end and online learning without eigendecompositions, yet prior work centered on RatioCut and lacked general guarantees and…

The aim of this article is to show that p-adic geometry of modular curves is useful in the study of p-adic properties of traces of singular moduli. In order to do so, we partly answer a question by Ono. As our goal is just to illustrate how…
