A set $S\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a nonnegativity witness for a set $U$ of real homogeneous polynomials if $F$ in $U$ is nonnegative on $\mathbb{R}^n$ if and only if it is nonnegative at all points of $S$. We prove that the union of the…

The free singularity locus of a noncommutative polynomial f is defined to be the sequence $Z_n(f)=\{X\in M_n^g : \det f(X)=0\}$ of hypersurfaces. The main theorem of this article shows that f is irreducible if and only if $Z_n(f)$ is…

A general method for extending a non-dissipative nonlinear Schr\"odinger and Liouville-von Neumann 1-particle dynamics to an arbitrary number of particles is described. It is shown at a general level that the dynamics so obtained is…

In this paper we present a condition on a local Cohen-Macaulay F-injective ring of positive characteristic $p > 2$ which implies that its top local cohomology module with support in the maximal ideal has finitely many Frobenius compatible…

A linear polyomial non-negative on the non-negativity domain of finitely many linear polynomials can be expressed as their non-negative linear combination. Recently, under several additional assumptions, Helton, Klep, and McCullough…

The question of how to certify the non-negativity of a polynomial function lies at the heart of Real Algebra and it also has important applications to Optimization. In the setting of symmetric polynomials Timofte provided a useful way of…

In this paper we prove the existence of at least one positive solution for the nonlocal semipositone problem \[ \displaystyle \left\{\begin{array}{rcll} (-\Delta)_p^s(u) &=& \lambda f(u) \qquad & \text{in} \ \ \Omega \\u &=& 0 & \text{in} \…

We show that every real polynomial $f$ nonnegative on $[-1,1]^{n}$ can be approximated in the $l_{1}$-norm of coefficients, by a sequence of polynomials $\{f_{\ep r}\}$ that are sums of squares. This complements the existence of s.o.s.…

Let K be a non-archimedean field, and let f in K(z) be a polynomial or rational function of degree at least 2. We present a necessary and sufficient condition, involving only the fixed points of f and their preimages, that determines…

(Completely regular) locales generalize (Tychonoff) spaces; indeed, the passage from a locale to its spatial sublocale is a well understood coreflection. But a locale also possesses an equally important pointless sublocale, and with…

Let $V$ be a real algebraic variety with singularities and $f$ be a real polynomial non-negative on $V$. Assume that the regular locus of $V$ is dense in $V$ by the usual topology. Using Hironaka's resolution of singularities and…

We introduce a coinductive version of the well-foundedness of N that is used in our proof within minimal logic of the constructive counterpart CLNP to the standard least number principle LNP. According to CLNP, an inhabited complemented…

Schm\"udgen's Theorem says that if a basic closed semialgebraic set K = {g_1 \geq 0, ..., g_s \geq 0} in R^n is compact, then any polynomial f which is strictly positive on K is in the preordering generated by the g_i's. Putinar's Theorem…

The present paper is a continuation of the author's previous works, in which necessary and sufficient local extrema at a stationary point of a polynomial or a power series (and thus of an analytic function) are given. It is known that for…

In this paper we present necessary and sufficient conditions (in terms of {\L}ojasiewicz inequalities) for the stability of local minimum points in smooth unconstrained optimization. In particular, we derive a sufficient condition for which…

In this work, we study the existence of local solutions in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ to $k$-Hessian equation,for which the nonhomogeneous term $f$ is permitted to change the sign or be non negative; if $f$ is $C^\infty,$ so is the local solution. We…

Let $A$ be a non-projectively-pluripolar set in a Fr\'{e}chet space $E.$ We give sufficient conditions to ensure the convergence on some zero-neighbourhood in $E$ of a (sequence of) formal power series of Fr\'{e}chet-valued continuous…

Let F be a totally real number field of odd degree. We prove several purely local criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over F, and also for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation over F. For example, if 2…
