First we reprove, using representation theory and the relative trace formula of Jacquet, an average value result of Duke for modular L-series at the critical center. We also establish a refinement. To be precise, the L-value which appears…

Let A be a C*-algebra and A** its enveloping von Neumann algebra. C. Akemann suggested a kind of non-commutative topology in which certain projections in A** play the role of open sets. The adjectives "open", "closed", "compact", and…

Let $M\subset C^N$ be a minimal real-analytic CR-submanifold and $M'\subset C^{N'}$ a real-algebraic subset through points $p\in M$ and $p'\in M'$. We show that that any formal (holomorphic) mapping $f\colon (C^N,p)\to (C^{N'},p')$, sending…

In this note we consider a notion of relative Frobenius pairs of commutative rings $S/R$. To such a pair, we associate an $\mathbb{N}$-graded $R$-algebra $\Pi_R(S)$ which has a simple description and coincides with the preprojective algebra…

Suppose a complex function $f$ has a Lebesgue measurable inverse Laplace transform. We show that the $n$th order forward and backward differences of $f$ at $z_0\in\mathbb{C}$ tend to zero as $n\to\infty$ whenever $z_0$ lies in the region of…
