Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a unital C*-algebra. Then the theory of Hilbert C*-modules tells that \begin{align*} \sum_{i=1}^{n}(a_ia_i^*)^\frac{1}{2}\leq \sqrt{n} \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_ia_i^*\right)^\frac{1}{2}, \quad \forall n \in \mathbb{N},…

We consider an inverse boundary value problem for the doubly nonlinear parabolic equation \[ \epsilon(x)\partial_t u^m-\nabla\cdot\bigl(\gamma(x)|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\bigr)=0 \quad\text{in }(0,T)\times\Omega, \] where…

We construct $(P_2)$-closed groups acting on $T_3$ in which all edge inversions have infinite order. This provides a negative answer to a question posed by Tornier. We also construct a family of $(P_2)$-closed groups for which the smallest…

In this article, we develop a formula for an inverse Riemann zeta function such that for $w=\zeta(s)$ we have $s=\zeta^{-1}(w)$ for real and complex domains $s$ and $w$. The presented work is based on extending the analytical recurrence…

We initiate the study of inverse source problems for quasilinear elliptic equations of the form \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \nabla \cdot (\gamma(x,u,\nabla u) \nabla u) = F & \text{in } \Omega, \\ u = f & \text{on } \partial\Omega,…

Counterexamples to the Modular Isomorphism Problem were discovered recently. These are non-isomorphic finite $2$-groups $G$ and $H$ that have isomorphic group algebras over the field $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ and non-isomorphic group…

We consider the inverse eigenvalue problem for entanglement witnesses, which asks for a characterization of their possible spectra (or equivalently, of the possible spectra resulting from positive linear maps of matrices). We completely…

Let $A=\{a_{1},\ldots,a_{k}\}$ be a nonempty finite subset of an additive abelian group $G$. For a positive integer $h$, the $h$-fold signed sumset of $A$, denoted by $h_{\pm}A$, is defined as $$h_{\pm}A=\left\lbrace \sum_{i=1}^{k}…

In this note we study the problem of conformally flat structures bounding conformally flat structures and show that the eta invariants give obstructions. These lead us to the definition of an abelian group, the conformal cobordism group,…

Naslund used Tao's slice rank bounding method to give new exponential upper bounds for the Erd\H{o}s--Ginzburg-Ziv constant of finite Abelian groups of high rank. In our short manuscript we improve slightly Naslund's upper bounds. We extend…

Let $\Sigma=\{a_1, \ldots , a_n\}$ be a set of positive integers with $a_1 < \ldots < a_n$ such that all $2^n$ subset sums are pairwise distinct. A famous conjecture of Erd\H{o}s states that $a_n>C\cdot 2^n$ for some constant $C$, while the…

The inverse problem of finding the coefficient $\g$ in the equation $\dot{u}=A(t)u+\g(t)u+f(t)$ from the extra data of the form $\phi(t)=u(t),w$ is studied. The problem is reduced to a Volterra equation of the second kind. Applications are…
