IIB supergravity is reformulated with a manifest local USp(8) invariance that makes the embedding of five-dimensional maximal supergravities transparent. In this formulation the ten-dimensional theory exhibits all the 27 one-form fields and…

Bernstein problem for affine maximal type equation \begin{equation}\label{e0.1} u^{ij}D_{ij}w=0, \ \ w\equiv[\det D^2u]^{-\theta},\ \ \forall x\in\Omega\subset{\mathbb{R}}^N \end{equation} has been a core problem in affine geometry. A…

We introduce the concept of bi-conformal transformation, as a generalization of conformal ones, by allowing two orthogonal parts of a manifold with metric $\G$ to be scaled by different conformal factors. In particular, we study their…

In this sequence, we first prove an abstract Morse index theorem in a Hilbert space modeling a variational problem with constraints. Then, our abstract formulation is applied to study several optimization setups including closed CMC…

Let $\mathcal A:U\to V$ be a linear mapping between vector spaces $U$ and $V$ over a field or skew field $\mathbb F$ with symmetric, or skew-symmetric, or Hermitian forms $\mathcal B:U\times U\to\mathbb F$ and $\mathcal C:V\times…

Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We say that a multilinear form $\alpha \colon V^k \to \mathbb{F}_p$ in $k$ variables is $d$-approximately symmetric if the partition rank of difference $\alpha(x_1, \dots,…

An orthogonality space is a set equipped with a symmetric and irreflexive binary relation. We consider orthogonality spaces with the additional property that any collection of mutually orthogonal elements gives rise to the structure of a…

On the basis of our recent modifications of the Dirac formalism we generalize the Bargmann-Wigner formalism for higher spins to be compatible with other formalisms for bosons. Relations with dual electrodynamics, with the…

We introduce a new type of reduction of inversive difference polynomials that is associated with a partition of the basic set of automorphisms $\sigma$ and uses a generalization of the concept of effective order of a difference polynomial.…

In the framework of usual superfield approach, we derive the exact local, covariant, continuous and off-shell nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations for the U(1) gauge field (A_\mu) and the…

Let G be a group of order 8 and F an algebraically closed field with char= 2. In this paper we compute the number of n degree representations of G and subsequent dimensions of the corresponding spaces of invatiant bilinear forms over the…

The dimension of a linear space is the maximum positive integer $d$ such that any $d$ of its points generate a proper subspace. For a set $K$ of integers at least two, recall that a pairwise balanced design PBD$(v,K)$ is a linear space on…

Symmetric R-spaces can be characterized as real forms of Hermitian symmetric spaces, and as such, they are all embedded as Lagrangian submanifolds. We show that their maximal Weinstein tubular neighborhoods are dense and use this property…

In the framework of the augmented superfield formalism, the local, covariant, continuous and off-shell (as well as on-shell) nilpotent (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations are derived for a $(0 + 1)$-dimensional free scalar relativistic…

This paper deals with the subject of infinitesimal variations of Euclidean submanifolds with arbitrary dimension and codimension. The main goal is to establish a Fundamental theorem for these geometric objects. Similar to the theory of…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field with at least three elements. It was recently proven that an affine subspace of M_n(K) consisting only of non-singular matrices must have a dimension lesser than or equal to n(n-1)/2. Here, we…

We prove that Hilbert space is distortable and, in fact, arbitrarily distortable. This means that for all lambda >1 there exists an equivalent norm |.| on l_2 such that for all infinite dimensional subspaces Y of l_2 there exist x,y in Y…

By dimensional reduction of a massive supersymmetric B$\wedge $F theory, a manifestly N=1 supersymmetric completion of a massive antisymmetric tensor gauge theory is constructed in (2+1) dimensions. In the N=1-D=3 superspace, a new…

An important theorem by Timofte states that nonnegativity of real $n$-variate symmetric polynomials of degree $d$ can be decided at test sets given by all points with at most $\lfloor\frac{d}{2}\rfloor$ distinct components. However, if the…

Let $A$ be an Artin algebra, $M$ be a Gorenstein projective $A$-module and $B =$ End$_A M$, then $M$ is a $A$-$B$-bimodule. We use the restricted flat dimension of $M_B$ to give a characterization of the homological dimensions of $A$ and…
