We characterize rational actions of the additive group on algebraic varieties defined over a field of characteristic zero in terms of a suitable integrability property of their associated velocity vector fields. This extends the classical…

Following Chaudhuri, Sankaranarayanan, and Vardi, we say that a function $f:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ is $r$-regular if there is a B\"{u}chi automaton that accepts precisely the set of base $r \in \mathbb{N}$ representations of elements of the graph…

Call a noncommutative rational function $r$ regular if it has no singularities, i.e., $r(X)$ is defined for all tuples of self-adjoint matrices $X$. In this article regular noncommutative rational functions $r$ are characterized via the…

The assignment (nonstable K_0-theory), that to a ring R associates the monoid V(R) of Murray-von Neumann equivalence classes of idempotent infinite matrices with only finitely nonzero entries over R, extends naturally to a functor. We prove…

We consider continuous functions f : [0,1] \to R that cut the real axis at every point of a measurable set of positive measure and we construct examples where f fails to have bounded variation, and at the opposite end, where f admits…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and let $X$ be an indeterminate over $R$. The \textit{Anderson ring} of $R$ is defined as the quotient ring of the polynomial ring $R[X]$ by the set of polynomials that evaluate to $1$ at $0$.…

We study, in the setting of algebraic varieties, finite-dimensional spaces of functions V that are invariant under a ring D^V of differential operators, and give conditions under which D^V acts irreducibly. We show how this problem,…

A cohomological vanishing property is proved for finitely supported ideals in an arbitrary d-dimensional regular local ring. (Such vanishing implies some refined Briancon-Skoda-type results, not otherwise known in mixed characteristic.) It…

For a nonempty topological space X, the ring of all real-valued functions on $X$ with pointwise addition and multiplication is denoted by $F(X)$ and continuous members of $F(X)$ is denoted by $C(X)$. Let $A(X)$ be a subring of $F(X)$ and…

We study rational functions admitting a continuous extension to the real affine space. First of all, we focus on the regularity of such functions exhibiting some nice properties of their partial derivatives. Afterwards, since these…

For von Neumann *-regular rings R of endomorphisms (the involution given by taking adjoints) of inner product spaces we provide a condition on r in R (in terms of action of r on finite dimensional subspaces) for r being a unit. It remains…

We introduce support varieties for rational representations of a linear algebraic group $G$ of exponential type over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. These varieties are closed subspaces of the space $V(G)$ of…

We know that a continuous function on a closed interval satisfies the Intermediate Value Property. Likewise, the derivative function of a differentiable function on a closed interval satisfies the IVP property which is known as the Darboux…

A complex projective manifold is rationally connected, resp. rationally simply connected, if finite subsets are connected by a rational curve, resp. the spaces parameterizing these connecting rational curves are themselves rationally…

The paper consider regulous functions on the real affine space $\mathbb{R}^N$. We shall study some algebraic properties of the ring of those functions. It is presented a proof of the regulous version of Nullstellensatz based on the…

The content of a polynomial over a ring $R$ is a well understood notion. Ohm and Rush generalized this concept of a content map to an arbitrary ring extension of $R$, although it can behave quite badly. We examine five properties an algebra…

Regularization plays a key role in a variety of optimization formulations of inverse problems. A recurring theme in regularization approaches is the selection of regularization parameters, and their effect on the solution and on the optimal…

We show that a ring $R$ is regular if $Tor_{i}^{R}(R^{+},k) = 0$ for some $i\geq 1$ assuming further that $R$ is a $\mathbb{N}$-graded ring of dimension $2$ finitely generated over an equi-characteristic zero field $k$. This answers a…

A recent result from [AtES24] allows one to define variational solutions of the Dirichlet problem for general continuous boundary data. We establish basic properties of this notion of solution and show that it coincides with the Perron…

This note replaces two earlier preprints (1101.3737 by Koll\'ar) and (1211.6681 by Nowak). It studies, and partially solves, 3 elementary questions about continuous rational functions on real (and p-adic) algebraic varieties: Can one…
