Let $p$ be an odd prime number. For a degree $p$ extension of $p$-adic fields $L/K$, we give a complete characterization of the condition for the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_L$ to be free as a module over its associated order in the…

Zonoids whose polars are zonoids cannot have proper faces of dimension other than $n-1$ or zero ($n\geq 3$). However, there exist non smooth zonoids whose polars are zonoids. Examples in $R^3$ and $R^4$ are given.

A useful result is that if a bounded complex-valued path is Riemann-integrable, then its modulus is also Riemann-integrable. The extension of this last result to bounded paths taking values in a normed space is affirmed, as being true, in…

For $\Sigma$ an orientable surface of finite topological type having genus at least 3 (possibly closed or possibly with any number of punctures or boundary components), we show that the mapping class group $Mod(\Sigma)$ has no faithful…

In this work we prove that for a compact odd-dimensional orbifold its Euler characteristic is half of the Euler characteristic of its boundary.

We classify all continuous tensor product systems of Hilbert spaces which are ``infinitely divisible" in the sense that they have an associated logarithmic structure. These results are applied to the theory of E_0 semigroups to deduce that…

We show that the number $A(n,m)$ of partitions with $m$ even parts and largest hook length $n$ is strongly unimodal with mode [(n-1)/4] for $n\ge 6$. We establish this result by induction, using a $5$-term recurrence due to Lin, Xiong and…

In this note, we prove -- in dimension at most 4 -- a conjectue of Hao which says that a morphism $f : X \to A$ to a simple abelian variety $A$ is smooth if and only if there is a 1-form pulled back from A without any zeros. We also give a…

For fixed $m$ and $R\subseteq \{0,1,\ldots,m-1\}$, take $A$ to be the set of positive integers congruent modulo $m$ to one of the elements of $R$, and let $p_A(n)$ be the number of ways to write $n$ as a sum of elements of $A$. Nathanson…

We study Poisson traces of the structure algebra A of an affine Poisson variety X defined over a field of characteristic p. According to arXiv:0908.3868v4, the dual space HP_0(A) to the space of Poisson traces arises as the space of…

We study projective dimension and graded length of structural modules in parabolic-singular blocks of the BGG category O. Some of these are calculated explicitly, others are expressed in terms of two functions. We also obtain several…

A classic result of Erd\H{o}s and P\'osa says that any graph contains either $k$ vertex-disjoint cycles or can be made acyclic by deleting at most $O(k \log k)$ vertices. Here we generalize this result by showing that for all numbers $k$…

We show that, in some cases, the projective and the injective tensor products of two Banach spaces do not have the Dunford-Pettis property (DPP). As a consequence, we obtain that $(c_0\hat{\otimes}_\pi c_0)^{**}$ fails the DPP. Since…

For any relatively prime integers $r$ and $s$, let $a_{r,s}(n)$ denote the number of $(r,s)$-regular partitions of a positive integer of $n$ into distinct parts. Prasad and Prasad (2018) proved many infinite families of congruences modulo 2…

For a given positive integer $n$, how long can the process $x \mapsto n\text{ }(\text{mod } x)$ last before reaching $0$? We improve Erd\H{o}s and Shallit's upper bound of $O(n^{\frac{1}{3}+\varepsilon})$ to…

A proof is presented for the absence of gap for spin $1/2$ ladders with an odd number of legs, in the infinite leg length limit. This result is relevant to the current discussion of coupled one--dimensional spin systems, a physical…

We study the asymptotic properties of the number of open paths of length $n$ in an oriented $\rho$-percolation model. We show that this number is $e^{n\alpha(\rho)(1+o(1))}$ as $n \to \infty$. The exponent $\alpha$ is deterministic, it can…

We give a short proof that for every apex-forest $X$ on at least two vertices, graphs excluding $X$ as a minor have layered pathwidth at most $2|V(X)|-3$. This improves upon a result by Dujmovi\'c, Eppstein, Joret, Morin, and Wood (SIDMA,…

We study canonical bases for spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms of level 4 and weights in $\mathbb{Z}+\frac{1}{2}$ and show that almost all modular forms in these bases have the property that many of their zeros in a fundamental…

Let a be a positive integer which is not a perfect h-th power with h greater than 1, and Q_a(x;4,j) be the set of primes p less than x such that the residual order of a(mod p) is congruent to j modulo 4. When j=0, 2, it is known that…
