In this paper we study digit frequencies in the setting of expansions in non-integer bases, and self-affine sets with non-empty interior. Within expansions in non-integer bases we show that if $\beta\in(1,1.787\ldots)$ then every…

We prove a noncommutative analogue of the fact that every symmetric analytic function of $(z,w)$ in the bidisc $\D^2$ can be expressed as an analytic function of the variables $z+w$ and $zw$. We construct an analytic nc-map $S$ from the…

We formulate two-dimensional rational conformal field theory as a natural generalization of two-dimensional lattice topological field theory. To this end we lift various structures from complex vector spaces to modular tensor categories.…

Let $D$ be a convex subset of a real vector space. It is shown that a radially lower semicontinuous function $f: D\to \mathbf{R}\cup \{+\infty\}$ is convex if and only if for all $x,y \in D$ there exists $\alpha=\alpha(x,y) \in (0,1)$ such…

Recent work has proposed a method for imposing T-duality on the metric, $B$-field, and dilaton of the classical effective action of string theory without using Kaluza-Klein reduction. Specifically, the $D$-dimensional effective action…

In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics called general $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics, which are defined by a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a $1$-form $\beta$. We find an equation which is necessary and sufficient condition for such…

In a cylinder $\Omega_T=\Omega\times (0,T)\subset \R^{n+1}_+$ we study the boundary behavior of nonnegative solutions of second order parabolic equations of the form \[ Hu =\sum_{i,j=1}^ma_{ij}(x,t) X_iX_ju - \p_tu = 0, \…

Regression models with a response variable taking values in a Hilbert space and hybrid covariates are considered. This means two sets of regressors are allowed, one of finite dimension and a second one functional with values in a Hilbert…

We discuss the introduction of a non minimal coupling between the inflaton and gravity in terms of the recently proposed $\beta$-function formalism for inflation\cite{Binetruy:2014zya}. Via a field redefinition we reduce to the case of…

(1) Let $A$ be an operator on a space ${\cal H}$ of even finite dimension. Then for some decomposition ${\cal H}={\cal F}\oplus{\cal F}^{\perp}$, the compressions of $A$ onto ${\cal F}$ and ${\cal F}^{\perp}$ are unitarily equivalent. (2)…

We introduce a new Tauberian framework through the theory of "regular arithmetic functions". This allows us to establish a characterization of the Riemann hypothesis by linking the floor function to the distribution of nontrivial zeros of…

We discuss, by topological methods, the solvability of systems of second-order elliptic differential equations subject to functional boundary conditions under the presence of gradient terms in the nonlinearities. We prove the existence of…

Let $g\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ be a strictly decreasing continuous function supported on $\mathbb{R}_+$ such that for all $t > 0$ we have $g(x+t)\le q(t)g(x)$ for some $q(t)<1$. We prove that the Gabor system…
