We present an algorithm to invert the Euler function $\phi(m)$. The algorithm, for a given $n \geq 1$, in polynomial time ``on average'', finds the set $\Psi(n)$ of all solutions $m$ to $\phi(m) = n$. In fact, in the worst case, $\Psi(n)$…

Manifolds admitting positive sectional curvature are conjectured to have rigid homotopical structure and, in particular, comparatively small Euler charateristics. In this article, we obtain upper bounds for the Euler characteristic of a…

A modified three-dimensional mean spherical model with a L-layer film geometry under Neumann-Neumann boundary conditions is considered. Two spherical fields are present in the model: a surface one fixes the mean square value of the spins at…

An alternative formula for the partition function of the Goulden-Harer-Jackson matrix model is derived, in which the Penner and the orthogonal Penner partition functions are special cases of this formula. Then the free energy that computes…

We introduce orbifold Euler numbers for normal surfaces with Q-divisors. These numbers behave multiplicatively under finite maps and in the log canonical case we prove that they satisfy the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau type inequality. As a…

We compute the fixed point index of non-degenerate central configurations for the $n$-body problem in the euclidean space of dimension $d$, relating it to the Morse index of the gravitational potential function $\bar U$ induced on the…

Sufficient boundary asymptotic conditions are established for a generalized Schur function $f$ to be identically equal to a given rational function $g$ unimodular on the unit circle. Similar rigidity statements are presented for generalized…

Let $ M^n$ be a closed immersed minimal hypersurface in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$. We establish a special isoperimetric inequality of $M^n$. As an application, if the scalar curvature of $ M^n$ is constant, then we get a uniform…

The Schur class, denoted by $\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{D})$, is the set of all functions analytic and bounded by one in modulus in the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$, that is \[ \mathcal{S}(\mathbb{D}) = \{\varphi…

We construct a moduli space of polarised manifolds which admit a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric. We show that this space admits a natural K\"ahler metric.

Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvature is bounded above by 1. We say that M has positive spherical rank if along every geodesic one hits a conjugate point at t=\pi. The following theorem is then proved: If M is a…

We study random waves on smooth, compact, Riemannian manifolds under the spherical ensemble. Our first main result shows that there is a positive universal limit for the critical radius of a specific deterministic embedding, defined via the…

We consider the independence complexes of square grids with cylindrical boundary conditions. When one of the dimensions is small we use simple reductions induced by edge removals to show explicit natural homotopy equivalences between those…

Spherical monogenics can be regarded as a basic tool for the study of harmonic analysis of the Dirac operator in Euclidean space R^m. They play a similar role as spherical harmonics do in case of harmonic analysis of the Laplace operator on…

For a measurable space ($X,\mathcal{A}$), let $\mathcal{M}(X,\mathcal{A})$ be the corresponding ring of all real valued measurable functions and let $\mu$ be a measure on ($X,\mathcal{A}$). In this paper, we generalize the so-called…

We prove that the cohomology rings of the moduli space $M_{d,\chi}$ of one-dimensional sheaves on the projective plane are not isomorphic for general different choices of the Euler characteristics. This stands in contrast to the…

We consider the Neumann version of the spherical mean value operator and its variants in the space of smooth functions, distributions and compactly supported ones. Surjectivity and range characterization issues are addressed from the…

In this paper, we study square functions for extension operators over finite-type, planar curves endowed with the Euclidean arclength measure. We prove new results for curves of the form $(T,\phi(T))$ where $\phi(T)$ is a polynomial of…

We propose a general method for finding sharp constants in the imbeddings of the Hilbert Sobolev spaces of order m defined on a n-dimensional Riemann manifold into the space of bounded continuous functions, where m>n/2. The method is based…

Let $M$ be a smooth connected compact surface and $P$ be either a real line or a circle. This paper proceeds the study of the stabilizers and orbits of smooth functions on $M$ with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms…
