In this note we discuss some problems related to conformal slit-mappings. On the one hand, classical Loewner theory leads us to questions concerning the embedding of univalent functions into slit-like Loewner chains. On the other hand, a…
We study, theoretically and experimentally, a 1-parameter family of transformations and their limiting vector field on the space of plane polygons. These transformations are discrete analogs of completely integrable transformation on closed…
We consider the $1$- and $2$-d bicomplex analogs of the classical Fourier--Wigner transform. Their basic properties, including Moyal's identity and characterization of their ranges giving rise to new bicomplex--polyanalytic functional…
By using the properties of orthogonal polynomials, we present an exact unitary transformation that maps the Hamiltonian of a quantum system coupled linearly to a continuum of bosonic or fermionic modes to a Hamiltonian that describes a…
The existence of a finite basis of algebraically independent one-loop integrals has underpinned important developments in the computation of one-loop amplitudes in field theories and gauge theories in particular. We give an explicit…
Two-dimensional patterns are used in many research areas in computer science, ranging from image processing to specification and verification of complex software systems (via scenarios). The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we…
Closed-form generating functions for counting one-face rooted hypermaps with a known number of darts by number of vertices and edges is found, using matrix integral expressions relating to the reduced density operator of a bipartite quantum…
We consider manifolds whose transition maps are restrictions of polynomial mappings $\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^n$, and use them to give an equivalent statement of the Jacobian conjecture over the real field.
In the first part of this article, we consider ruled surfaces defined over a finite field; we introduce invariants for them, and describe some explicit contructions that illustrate possible behaviour of these invariants. In the second part,…
After recalling the definition of codes as modules over skew polynomial rings, whose multiplication is defined by using an automorphism and a derivation, and some basic facts about them, in the first part of this paper we study some of…
The "openness" of a complex polynomial mapping is discussed and applied to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. In this category fall proofs of S. Wolfenstein, R.L. Thompson, J. Milnor, and S. Reich-S. Smale. These proofs take into account…
Finite elements of higher continuity, say conforming in $H^2$ instead of $H^1$, require a mapping from reference cells to mesh cells which is continuously differentiable across cell interfaces. In this article, we propose an algorithm to…
We present new classes of permutation polynomials over finite fields.
This paper continues the study of combinatorial properties of binary functions --- that is, functions $f:2^E\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$ such that $f(\emptyset)=1$, where $E$ is a finite set. Binary functions have previously been shown to admit…
The double-direction orthogonalization algorithm is applied to construct sequences of polynomials, which are orthogonal over the interval [0,1]with the weighting function 1. Functional and recurrent relations are derived for the sequences…
In this article, we study algebraic decompositions and secondary constructions of almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions. In many cases, we establish precise criteria which characterize when certain modifications of a given APN function…
The spectral decomposition for an explicit second-order differential operator $T$ is determined. The spectrum consists of a continuous part with multiplicity two, a continuous part with multiplicity one, and a finite discrete part with…
A blend of two Taylor series for the same smooth real- or complex-valued function of a single variable can be useful for approximation. We use an explicit formula for a two-point Hermite interpolational polynomial to construct such blends.…
We continue our study of matrix models of dually weighted graphs. Among the attractive features of these models is the possibility to interpolate between ensembles of regular and random two-dimensional lattices, relevant for the study of…
This article provides a method for constructing invariants and semi-invariants of a binary $N$-ic form over a field $k$ characteristics $0$ or $p > N$. A practical and broadly applicable sufficient condition for ensuring nontriviality of…
