In an error estimation of finite element solutions to the Poisson equation, we usually impose the shape regularity assumption on the meshes to be used. In this paper, we show that even if the shape regularity condition is violated, the…

Given a metric space $(X,d)$, a set $S\subseteq X$ is called a $k$-\emph{metric generator} for $X$ if any pair of different points of $X$ is distinguished by at least $k$ elements of $S$. A $k$-\emph{metric basis} is a $k$-metric generator…

Achieving the goals in the title (and others) relies on a cardinality-wise scanning of the ideals of the poset. Specifically, the relevant numbers attached to the k+1 element ideals are inferred from the corresponding numbers of the…

In this paper we consider extremal and almost extremal bounds on the normal Hilbert coefficients of ${\mathfrak m}$-primary ideals of an analytically unramified Cohen-Macaulay ring $R$ of dimension $d>0$ and infinite residue field. In these…

We use the remarkable distance estimate of Ilya Kachkovskiy and Yuri Safarov, to show that if $H$ is a nonseparable Hilbert space and $K$ is any closed ideal in $B(H)$ that is not the ideal of compact operators, then any normal element of…

Let $G$ be a countable cancellative amenable semigroup and let $(F_n)$ be a (left) F{\o}lner sequence in $G$. We introduce the notion of an $(F_n)$-normal element of $\{0,1\}^G$. When $G$ = $(\mathbb N,+)$ and $F_n = \{1,2,...,n\}$, the…

In this article, we define general normal forms for any logic that has propositional part and whose non-propositional connectives distribute over the finite disjunctions. We do not require the non-propositional connectives to be closed on…

Let $K/k$ be a finite extension of a global field. Such an extension can be generated over $k$ by a single element. The aim of this article is to prove the existence of a "small" generator in the function field case. This answers the…

We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…

W. M. Schmidt, A. D. Pollington, and F. Schweiger have studied when normality with respect to one expansion is equivalent to normality with respect to another expansion. Following in their footsteps, we show that when $Q$ is an eventually…

It is a theorem of Ribet that an abelian variety defined over a number field $K$ has only finitely many torsion points with values in the maximal cyclotomic extension field $K^{\mathrm{cyc}}$ of $K$. Recently, R\"ossler and Szamuely…

Both the function and its normal derivative on the element boundary are $Q_k$ polynomials for the Bogner-Fox-Schmit $C^1$-$Q_k$ finite element functions. Mathematically, to keep the optimal order of approximation, their spaces are required…

This work establishes a new probabilistic bound on the number of elements to generate finite nilpotent groups. Let $\varphi_k(G)$ denote the probability that $k$ random elements generate a finite nilpotent group $G$. For any $0 < \epsilon <…

Our work builds on known results for k-uniform hypergraphs including the existence of limits, a Regularity Lemma and a Removal Lemma. Our main tool here is a theory of measures on ultraproduct spaces which establishes a correspondence…

We define the notion of componentwise regularity and study some of its basic properties. We prove an analogue, when working with weight orders, of Buchberger's criterion to compute Gr\"obner bases; the proof of our criterion relies on a…

We compute the Z-rank of the subgroup of elements of the multiplicative group of a number field K that are norms from every finite level of the cyclotomic Z{\ell}-extension of K. Thus we compare its {\ell}-adification with the group of…

Let F_q be the finite field of q elements. Let H be a multiplicative subgroup of F_q^*. For a positive integer k and element b\in F_q, we give a sharp estimate for the number of k-element subsets of H which sum to b.

The defect of valued field extensions is a major obstacle in open problems in resolution of singularities and in the model theory of valued fields, whenever positive characteristic is involved. We continue the detailed study of defect…

Let K/k be purely inseparable extension of characteristic p \textgreater{} 0. By invariants, we characterize the measure of the size of K/k. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition that K/k is of bounded size.…

For a number field $K$, we extend the notion of the ring class field of an order in $K$ [C. Lv and Y. Deng, SciChina. Math., 2015] to that of an arbitrary number ring in $K$. We give both ideal-theoretic and idele-theoretic description of…
