In this article we describe our experiences with a parallel SINGULAR-implementation of the signature of a surface singularity defined by z^N+g(x,y)=0.

We analyze the existence of unique solutions of the following class of nonlinear three point singular boundary value problems (SBVPs), \begin{eqnarray*}\label{NL-Singular-P} &&-(x^{\alpha} y'(x))'= x^{\alpha}f(x,y),\quad 0<x<1,\\…

We present a generalization of first-order unification to a term algebra where variable indexing is part of the object language. We exploit variable indexing by associating some sequences of variables ($X_0,\ X_1,\ X_2,\dots$) with a…

We prove that a class of superlinear indefinite problems with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions admits an arbitrarily high number of positive solutions, provided that the parameters of the problem are adequately chosen. The…

We study the relationship between Bell states, finite groups and complete sets of bases. We show how to obtain a set of N+1 bases in which Bell states are invariant. They generalize the X, Y and Z qubit bases and are associated to groups of…

In this paper we continue the study started in part I (posted). We consider a planar, bounded, $m$-connected region $\Omega$, and let $\bord\Omega$ be its boundary. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a cellular decomposition of $\Omega\cup\bord\Omega$,…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal O_{K}$. We prove that if $3$ does not divide $ [K:\mathbb Q]$ and $3$ splits completely in $K$, then the unit equation has no solutions in $K$. In other words, there are no $x, y \in…

We give an explicit description of the F_{q^i}-rational points on the Fermat curve u^{q-1}+v^{q-1}+w^{q-1}=0 for each i=1,2,3. As a consequence, we observe that for any such point (u,v,w), the product uvw is a cube in F_{q^i}. We also…

Fix a rational prime $r \geq 5$. In this article, we study the integer solutions of the generalized Fermat equation of signature $(2p,2q,r)$, namely $x^{2p}+y^{2q}=z^r$, where the primes $p,q \geq 5$ are varying. For each rational prime $r…

We introduce an iterative scheme to prove the Yamabe problem $ - a\Delta_{g} u + S u = \lambda u^{p-1} $, firstly on open domain $ (\Omega, g) $ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, and then on closed manifolds $ (M, g) $ by local argument.…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of functions $f$ which are analytic and univalent in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}=\{z:|z|<1\}$ and normalized with $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty} a_n z^n$. Using a method based on Grusky coefficients we study…
