We generalize Voronoi's theory of perfect quadratic forms to generalized copositive matrices over a closed convex and full-dimensional cone K. We introduce a notion of a K-copositive minimum and of perfect K-copositive matrices. We consider…
An alternative, geometrical proof of a known theorem concerning the decomposition of positive maps of the matrix algebra $M_{2}(\mathbb{C})$ has been presented. The premise of the proof is the identification of positive maps with operators…
We shall firstly study the existence of one positive solution of a model problem for one equation via the classical Krasnosel'ski\u\i{} fixed-point theorem. Secondly we investigate how to handle this problem via the fixed point index theory…
We give a new proof of the Cauchy-Davenport Theorem for linear maps given by Herdade et al., (2015). This theorem gives a lower bound on the size of the image of a linear map on a grid. Our proof is purely combinatorial and offers a partial…
We prove that every automorphism of the restricted root system of a real semisimple Lie algebra -- when defined properly -- can be lifted to an automorphism of that Lie algebra. In particular, this can be applied to automorphisms of the…
The characteristic equation for a linear delay differential equation (DDE) has countably infinite roots on the complex plane. This paper considers linear DDEs that are on the verge of instability, i.e. a pair of roots of the characteristic…
We prove the following version of the Kreps-Yan theorem. For any norm closed convex cone $C\subset L^\infty$ such that $C\cap L_+^\infty=\{0\}$ and $C\supset -L_+^\infty$, there exists a strictly positive continuous linear functional, whose…
We prove the following results. If $X_3$ is a generic complete intersection Calabi-Yau 3-fold, (1) then for each natural number $d$ there exists a rational map \par\hspace{1 cc} $c\in Hom_{bir}(\mathbf P^1, X_3)$ of $deg(c(\mathbf P^1))=d$,…
Given a number field K, we consider families of critically separable rational maps of degree d over K possessing a certain fixed-point and multiplier structure. With suitable notions of isomorphism and good reduction between rational maps…
It is well-known that a finite graph can be viewed, in many respects, as a discrete analogue of a Riemann surface. In this paper, we pursue this analogy further in the context of linear equivalence of divisors. In particular, we formulate…
We study a new class of so-called rational-infinitely (or quasi-infinitely) divisible probability laws on the real line. The characteristic functions of these distributions are ratios of the characteristic functions of classical infinitely…
Transfinite set theory including the axiom of choice supplies the following basic theorems: (1) Mappings between infinite sets can always be completed, such that at least one of the sets is exhausted. (2) The real numbers can be well…
We prove some "universality" results for topological dynamical systems. In particular, we show that for any continuous self-map $T$ of a perfect Polish space, one can find a dense, $T$-invariant set homeomorphic to the Baire space ${\mathbb…
A classical vertex Ramsey result due to Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and R\"odl states that given a finite family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, a graph $A$ and a positive integer $r$, if every graph $B\in\mathcal{F}$ has a $2$-vertex-connected subgraph…
We study the implications of model completeness of a theory for the effectiveness of presentations of models of that theory. It is immediate that for a computable model $\mathcal A$ of a computably enumerable, model complete theory, the…
The fundamental theorem of affine geometry is a classical and useful result. For finite-dimensional real vector spaces, the theorem roughly states that a bijective self-mapping which maps lines to lines is affine. In this note we prove…
This paper concerns random bipartite planar maps which are defined by assigning weights to their faces. The paper presents a threefold contribution to the theory. Firstly, we prove the existence of the local limit for all choices of weights…
We study positive subunital maps on ordered effect spaces and introduce the defect $d(T) = u - T(u)$, which satisfies a cocycle identity under composition. Using only this identity and elementary order-theoretic arguments -- requiring no…
In this paper, we prove the functorial Riemann-Roch theorem in positive characteristic for a smooth and projective morphism with any relative dimension. In the case of relative dimension $1$, we have given an analogue with Deligne's…
Given any two rational numbers $r_1$ and $r_2$, a necessary and sufficient condition is established for the three numbers $1$, $\cos (\pi r_1)$, and $\cos (\pi r_2)$ to be rationally independent. Extending a classical fact sometimes…
