In this note, we characterize all functions $f : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ such that $f(x_1^2+ \cdots + x_k^2)=f(x_1)^2+ \cdots + f(x_k)^2$, where $k \geq 3$ and $x_1, \cdots, x_k$ are positive integers.
We consider the ordinary and noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld theories within the open string sigma-model. First, we propose a renormalization scheme, hybrid point splitting regularization, that leads directly to the Seiberg-Witten…
In this paper, by making use of properties of elliptic functions, we describe meromorphic solutions of Fermat-type functional equations $f(z)^{n}+f(L(z))^{m}=1$ over the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$, where $L(z)$ is a nonconstant entire…
Let $\Gamma_{g}$ be the fundamental group of a closed connected orientable surface of genus $g\geq2$. We develop a new method for integrating over the representation space $\mathbb{X}_{g,n}=\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma_{g},S_{n})$ where $S_{n}$ is…
The Seiberg-Witten equations that have recently found important applications for four-dimensional geometry are the Euler-Lagrange equations for a functional involving a connection $A$ on a line bundle $L$ and a section $\phi$ of another…
In this paper we investigate computational properties of the Diophantine problem for spherical equations in some classes of finite groups. We classify the complexity of different variations of the problem, e.g., when $G$ is fixed and when…
We study spherical functions on the space isomorphic to $U(2n)/(U(n)\times U(n))$ over a $p$-adic field; those functional equations with respect to the action of the Weyl group, the location of possible poles and zeros, explicit formulas,…
In this paper, we obtain the general solution and the stability result for the following functional equation in random normed spaces (in the sense of Sherstnev) under arbitrary $t$-norms…
The duality symmetries of the STU-model of Sen and Vafa are very restrictive. This is utilized to determine the holomorphic function that encodes its two-derivative Wilsonian effective action and its couplings to the square of the Weyl…
An affine variety $X$ of dimension $\ge 2$ is called {\em flexible} if its special automorphism group SAut$(X)$ acts transitively on the smooth locus $X_{reg}$ \cite{AKZ}. Recall that the special automorphism group SAut$(X)$ is the subgroup…
The covariance function of a Gauss-Markov process evaluated at points $(s,t)$ admits a representation as a product of a function of $\min(s,t)$ and a function of $\max(s,t)$. We call these functions the covariance factors of a Gauss-Markov…
If $\sigma$ is an automorphism of order $p$ of the semisimple group $\mathbf{G}$, there is a natural correspondence between mod $p$ cohomological automorphic forms on $\mathbf{G}$ and $\mathbf{G}^\sigma$. We describe this correspondence in…
In this work, we establish a representation theorem for multivariable totally symmetric functions: a multisymmetric continuous function must be the composition of a continuous function and a set of generators of the multisymmetric…
This paper describes the structure of invariant skew fields for linear actions of finite solvable groups on free skew fields in $d$ generators. These invariant skew fields are always finitely generated, which contrasts with the free algebra…
We provide a full and unbiased solution to the Dyson-Schwinger equation illustrated for $\phi^4$ theory in 2D. It is based on an exact treatment of the functional derivative $\partial \Gamma / \partial G$ of the 4-point vertex function…
We develop several methods that allow us to compute all-loop partition functions in perturbative Chern-Simons theory with complex gauge group G_C, sometimes in multiple ways. In the background of a non-abelian irreducible flat connection,…
Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero. In this paper, we consider finite $G$-equivariant morphisms $F:X\to Y$ of irreducible affine $G$-varieties. First we determine under which…
We show that every general semiconvex entire solution to the sigma-2 equation is a quadratic polynomial. A decade ago, this result was shown for almost convex solutions.
Recently, the functional equation \[ \sum_{i=0}^mf_i(b_ix+c_iy)= \sum_{i=1}^na_i(y)v_i(x) \] with $x,y\in\mathbb{R}^d$ and $b_i,c_i\in\mathbf{GL}_d(\mathbb{C})$, was studied by Almira and Shulman, both in the classical context of continuous…
We give extensions of results on nonnegative matrix semigroups which deduce finiteness or boundedness of such semigroups from the corresponding local properties, e.g., from finiteness or boundedness of values of certain linear functionals…
