The l-adic parabolic cohomology groups attached to noncongruence subgroups of SL_2(Z) are finite-dimensional representations of Gal(Qbar/F) for some number field F. We exhibit examples (with F=Q) giving rise to Galois representations whose…

Let N be a square-free positive integer and let f be a newform of weight 2 on \Gamma_0(N). Let A denote the abelian subvariety of J_0(N) associated to f and let m be a maximal ideal of the Hecke algebra T that contains Ann_T(f) and has…

Let $k \ge 2$ be an even integer, $ \ell \ge \max\{5, k-1\} $ be a prime, and $N$ be a squarefree positive integer. It is known that if the $\rm{mod}\,\ell$ Galois representation $\overline{\rho}_f$ associated with a newform $f$ of weight…

We review remarkable results in several mathematical scenarios, including graph theory, division algebras, cross product formalism and matroid theory. Specifically, we mention the following subjects: (1) the Euler relation in graph theory,…

We discuss the following two problems: 1) The properties of the multiple zeta-values and their generalizations, multiple polylogarithms at N-th roots of unity; 2) The action of the absolute Galois group on the pro-l-completion of the…

Let $f_r(n)$ represent the minimum number of complete $r$-partite $r$-graphs required to partition the edge set of the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices. The Graham-Pollak theorem states that $f_2(n)=n-1$. An upper bound of…

For a polynomial $f(x)\in \mathbb Z[x]$ we study an analogue of Jacobsthal function, defined by the formula \[ j_f(N)=\max_{m}\{\text{For some } x\in \mathbb N \text{ the inequality } (x+f(i),N)>1 \text{ holds for all }i\leq m\}. \] We…

The purpose of this paper is to establish a Nadel vanishing theorem for big line bundles with multiplier ideal sheaves of singular metrics admitting an analytic Zariski decomposition (such as, metrics with minimal singularities and Siu's…

We show that if $\{\rho_{\ell}\}$ is a compatible system of absolutely irreducible Galois representations of a number field then the residual representation $\overline{\rho}_{\ell}$ is absolutely irreducible for $\ell$ in a density 1 set of…

We consider the optimal control problem associated with a general version of the well known shallow lake model, and we prove the existence of an optimum in the class $L_{loc}^{1}\left(0,+\infty\right)$. Any direct proof seems to be missing…

We propose a novel universal construction of two-level overlapping Schwarz preconditioners for $2m$th-order elliptic boundary value problems, where $m$ is a positive integer. The word "universal" here signifies that the coarse space…

Given a statistical model, the maximum likelihood degree is the number of complex solutions to the likelihood equations for generic data. We consider discrete algebraic statistical models and study the solutions to the likelihood equations…

Let $K/\mathbb Q$ be a finite Galois extension and let $\chi_1,\ldots,\chi_r$ be the irreducible characters of the Galois group $G:=Gal(K/\mathbb Q)$. Let $f_1:=L(s,\chi_1),\ldots,f_r:=L(s,\chi_r)$ be their associated Artin L-functions. For…

We consider a variational two-dimensional Landau-de Gennes model in the theory of nematic liquid crystals in a disk of radius $R$. We prove that under a symmetric boundary condition carrying a topological defect of degree $\frac{k}{2}$ for…

We study the classical optimization problem $\min_{x \in \mathbb{R}^d} f(x)$ and analyze the gradient descent (GD) method in both nonconvex and convex settings. It is well-known that, under the $L$-smoothness assumption ($\|\nabla^2 f(x)\|…

We study the relationship between potential equivalence and character theory; we observe that potential equivalence of a representation $\rho$ is determined by an equality of an $m$-power character $g\mapsto Tr(\rho(g^m))$ for some natural…
