In this paper, the results in [Singular Hessians, J. Algebra 282 (2004), no. 1, 195--204], for polynomial Hessians with determinant zero in small dimensions $r+1$, are generalized to similar results in arbitrary dimension, for polynomial…

In this note we show that for a given irreducible binary quadratic form $f(x,y)$ with integer coefficients, whenever we have $f(x,y) = f(u,v)$ for integers $x,y,u,v$, there exists a rational automorphism of $f$ which sends $(x,y)$ to…

The rank two Jacobi algebra $\mathcal{J}_2$ is used to provide an interpretation of the two-variable Jacobi polynomials $J_{n,k}^{(a,b,c)}(x,y)$ on the triangle, as overlaps between two representation bases. The subalgebra structure of…

Given $s \ge k\ge 3$, let $h^{(k)}(s)$ be the minimum $t$ such that there exist arbitrarily large $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H$ whose independence number is at most polylogarithmic in the number of vertices and in which every $s$ vertices…

Given an n-tuple {a_1, ..., a_n} of self-adjoint operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H and a positive integer k, there exists a projection p of rank k such that, for each for j = 1, ..., n, pa_jp is a scalar multiple of p.…

The paper considers a linear matrix inequality (LMI) that depends on a parameter varying in a compact topological space. It turns out that if a strict LMI continuously depends on a parameter and is feasible for any value of that parameter,…

We prove Freudenburg's Freeness Conjecture: Let B be the polynomial ring in three variables over a field of characteristic zero, let D : B --> B be a nonzero locally nilpotent derivation, and let A = ker(D). Then B is a free A-module, and…

Persymmetric Jacobi matrices are invariant under reflection with respect to the anti-diagonal. The associated orthogonal polynomials have distinctive properties that are discussed. They are found in particular to be also orthogonal on the…

We present a holomorphic representation of the Jacobi algebra $\mathfrak{h}_n\rtimes \mathfrak{sp}(n,\R)$ by first order differential operators with polynomial coefficients on the manifold $\mathbb{C}^n\times \mathcal{D}_n$. We construct…

A result of Barnea and Isaacs states that if $L$ is a finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra with exactly two distinct centralizer dimensions, then nilpotency class of $L$ is either $2$ or $3$. In this article, we classify all such finite…

In Dokchitser (2007) it is shown that given an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a number field $K$ then there are infinitely many degree 3 extensions $L/K$ for which the rank of $E(L)$ is larger than $E(K)$. In the present paper we show that…

Fixing a positive integer $r$ and $0 \le k \le r-1$, define $f^{\langle r,k \rangle}$ for every formal power series $f$ as $ f(x) = f^{\langle r,0 \rangle}(x^r)+xf^{\langle r,1 \rangle}(x^r)+ \cdots +x^{r-1}f^{\langle r,r-1 \rangle}(x^r).$…

Jacobian conjecture states that if $F:\ \mathbb C^n(\mathbb R^n)\rightarrow \mathbb C^n(\mathbb R^n)$ is a polynomial map such that the Jacobian of $F$ is a nonzero constant, then $F$ is injective. This conjecture is still open for all…

We identify several classes of curves $C:f=0$, for which the Hilbert vector of the Jacobian module $N(f)$ can be completely determined, namely the 3-syzygy curves, the maximal Tjurina curves and the nodal curves, having only rational…

Given a global field $K$ and a positive integer $n$, we present a diophantine criterion for a polynomial in one variable of degree $n$ over $K$ not to have any root in $K$. This strengthens the known result that the set of non-$n$-th-powers…

Lyubashenko's construction associates representations of mapping class groups Map_{g,n} of Riemann surfaces of any genus g with any number n of holes to a factorizable ribbon category. We consider this construction as applied to the…

Let B(X) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex Banach space X of dimension at least three. For an arbitrary nonzero complex number t we determine the form of mappings f: B(X)-->B(X) with sufficiently large range such…

We introduce, investigate and compare several order type relations on the set of tripotents in a JB$^*$-triple. The main two relations we address are $\le_h$ and $\le_n$. We say that $u\le_h e$ (or $u\le_n e$) if $u$ is a self-adjoint (or…

One develops {\em ab initio} the theory of rational/birational maps over reduced, but not necessarily irreducible, projective varieties in arbitrary characteristic. A numerical invariant of a rational map is introduced, called the Jacobian…

In the present paper we study the rigidity of 2-step Carnot groups, or equivalently, of graded 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras. We prove the alternative that depending on bi-dimensions of the algebra, the Lie algebra structure makes it either…
