Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$, and let $k \geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that every $K$-linear bijection $f \colon K[X] \to K[X]$ strongly preserving the set of $k$-free polynomials (or the set of polynomials with a $k$-fold…
Let $G$ be a finite nilpotent group and $K$ a number field with torsion relatively prime to the order of $G$. By a sequence of central group extensions with cyclic kernel we obtain an upper bound for the minimum number of prime ideals of…
We give an algorithm that constructs a minimal set of polynomials defining all extension of a $(\pi)$-adic field with given, inertia degree, ramification index, discriminant, ramification polygon, and residual polynomials of the segments of…
Let $\mathcal F=(F, +. \cdot, <, 0, 1, \dots)$ be a definably complete locally o-minimal expansion of an ordered field. We demonstrate the existence of definable quotients of definable sets by definable equivalence relations when several…
In this paper we present necessary and sufficient conditions (in terms of {\L}ojasiewicz inequalities) for the stability of local minimum points in smooth unconstrained optimization. In particular, we derive a sufficient condition for which…
We introduce and study the minimum distance function of a graded ideal in a polynomial ring with coefficients in a field, and show that it generalizes the minimum distance of projective Reed-Muller-type codes over finite fields. This gives…
By extending Koiso's examples to the non-compact case, we construct complete gradient Kahler-Ricci solitons of various types on certain holomorphic line bundles over compact Kahler-Einstein manifolds. Moreover, a uniformization result on…
Let $R$ be a Dedekind ring, $K$ its quotient field, and $L=K(\alpha)$ a finite field extension of $K$ defined by a monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)\in R[x]$. We give an easy version of Dedekind's criterion which computationally improves…
This paper studies the hierarchy of local minimums of a polynomial in the space. For this purpose, we first compute H-minimums, for which the first and second order optimality conditions are satisfied. To compute each H-minimum, we…
For a polynomial $P$ mapping the integers into the integers, define an averaging operator $A_{N} f(x):=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{k=1}^N f(x+P(k))$ acting on functions on the integers. We prove sufficient conditions for the $\ell^{p}$-improving…
We prove that if R is a Hensel local ring with infinite residue field k, the natural map H_i(GL(n,R),Z/p) ---> H_i(GL(n,k),Z/p) is an isomorphism for i <=3, p distinct from char(k). This implies rigidity for H_i(GL_n), i <=3, which in turn…
In this paper we give a different proof of Kuz'min's result on the number of irreducible polynomials with the first two coefficients fixed. Our technique is to relate the question to the number of points on a curve, and to calculate the…
Let k be a field, and let {\pi}:\tilde{X} -> X be a proper birational morphism of irreducible k-varieties, where \tilde{X} is smooth and X has at worst quotient singularities. When the characteristic of k is zero, a theorem of Koll\'ar in…
We prove a conjecture of Teissier asserting that if $f$ has an isolated singularity at $P$ and $H$ is a smooth hypersurface through $P$, then $\widetilde{\alpha}_P(f)\geq \widetilde{\alpha}_P(f\vert_H)+\frac{1}{\theta_P(f)+1}$, where…
First we consider the following problem which dates back to Chebyshev, Zolotarev and Achieser: among all trigonometric polynomials with given leading coefficients $a_0,...,a_l,$ $b_0,...,b_l \in \mathbb R$ find that one with least maximum…
The partition number $\pi(K)$ of a simplicial complex $K\subset 2^{[m]}$ is the minimum integer $\nu$ such that for each partition $A_1\uplus\ldots\uplus A_\nu = [m]$ of $[m]$ at least one of the sets $A_i$ is in $K$. A complex $K$ is…
For any prime power $q$, a polynomial $f(X)\in\F_q[X]$ is ``exceptional'' if it induces bijections of $\F_{q^k}$ for infinitely many $k$; this condition is known to be equivalent to $f(X)$ inducing a bijection of $\F_{q^k}$ for at least one…
Teichm\"uller's problem from 1944 is this: Given $x\in [0,1)$ find and describe the extremal quasiconformal map $f:\ID\to\ID$, $f|\partial \ID=identity$ and $f(0)=-x\leq 0$. We consider this problem in the setting of minimisers of…
