For each integer $d\geq 2$, let $M_d$ denote the moduli space of maps $f: \mathbb{P}^1\to \mathbb{P}^1$ of degree $d$. We study the geometric configurations of subsets of postcritically finite (or PCF) maps in $M_d$. A complex-algebraic…

Let $L$ be a field of characteristic zero, let $h:\mathbb{P}^1\to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a rational map defined over $L$, and let $c\in \mathbb{P}^1(L)$. We show that there exists a finitely generated subfield $K$ of $L$ over which both $c$ and…

We show that if $f : \mathbb{A}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}^r \to \mathbb{A}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}^r$ is a regular self-map and $P \in \mathbb{A}^r(\bar{\mathbb{Q}})$ has $\limsup_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \frac{\log{h_{\mathrm{aff}}(f^nP)}}{\log{n}} < 1/r$,…

One of the elegant achievements in the history of proof theory is the characterization of the provably total recursive functions of an arithmetical theory by its proof-theoretic ordinal as a way to measure the time complexity of the…

Working in the p-adic analog of the complex numbers, we'll define a line integral on a small arc of a circle. This allows new versions of the Residue Theorem, the Cauchy-Goursat Theorem on discs with and without holes, Cauchy's Integral…

We present an expanded expository account of the $K$-moment problem for polynomial algebras over \(\R^d\), with special emphasis on compact basic closed semialgebraic sets. The central question is to characterize those linear functionals on…

We analyze the behavior of rational inner functions on the unit bidisk near singularities on the distinguished boundary $\mathbb{T}^2$ using level sets. We show that the unimodular level sets of a rational inner function $\phi$ can be…

Let $k$ be any field. Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}_k^N$ be a degree $d \geq 2$ hypersurface. Under some conditions, we prove that if $X(K) \neq \emptyset$ for some extension $K/k$ with $n:=[K:k] \geq 2$ and $\gcd(n,d)=1$, then $X(L) \neq…

We collect and organise known results and add some new ones of the following nature: if A is a bounded operator in a Hilbert or Banach space, does there exist a nonconstant polynomial p(z) such that p(A) is "simpler", "nicer" than A. The…

Let $p$ be an idempotent ultrafilter over $\mathbb{N}$. For a positive integer $N$, let ${\cal P}_{\leq N}$ denote the additive group of polynomials $P\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ with ${\rm deg}\, P\leq N$ and $P(0)=0$. Given a unitary operator $U$…

Given a quadratic map Q : K^n -> K^k defined over a computable subring D of a real closed field K, and a polynomial p(Y_1,...,Y_k) of degree d, we consider the zero set Z=Z(p(Q(X)),K^n) of the polynomial p(Q(X_1,...,X_n)). We present a…

In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let $f:\mathbb{A}^2\rightarrow \mathbb{A}^2$ be a dominate polynomial endomorphisms defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$. If there are no nonconstant rational…

Suppose that $\sA$ is a finitely generated commutative unital real algebra and $K$ is a closed subset of the set $\hat{A}$ of characters of $\sA$. We study the following problem: When is {\it each} linear functional $L:{\sA} \to \dR$ an…

Let $\Phi$ be a family of functions analytic in some neighborhood of a complex domain $\Omega$, and let $T$ be a Hilbert space operator whose spectrum is contained in $\overline\Omega$. Our typical result shows that under some extra…

Consider the closed convex hull $K$ of a monomial curve given parametrically as $(t^{m_1},\ldots,t^{m_n})$, with the parameter $t$ varying in an interval $I$. We show, using constructive arguments, that $K$ admits a lifted semidefinite…

Let $C\subset{\mathbb P}_K^2$ be an algebraic curve over a number field $K$, and denote by $d_K$ the degree of $K$ over ${\mathbb Q}$. We prove that the number of $K$-rational points of height at most $H$ in $C$ is bounded by $c…
