Sharp affine fractional $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities for functions on $\mathbb R^n$ are established. The new inequalities are stronger than (and directly imply) the sharp fractional $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities. They are fractional versions of…

Let $k$ be any field and $k^s$ its separable closure. Let $X$ be an affine variety over $k$ which is isomorphic to affine $n$-space over the field extension $k^s$. Then $X$ is isomorphic to affine $n$ space over $k$.

In this paper we formulate and solve extremal problems in the d-dimensional Euclidean space and further in hypergraphs, originating from problems in stoichiometry and elementary linear algebra. The notion of affine simplex is the bridge…

For k>=3 let A \subset [1,N] be a set not containing a solution to a_1 x_1+...+a_k x_k=a_1 x_{k+1}+...+a_k x_{2k} in distinct integers. We prove that there is an epsilon>0 depending on the coefficients of the equation such that every such A…

We generalize to the super context, the known fact that if an affine algebraic group $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ acts freely (in an appropriate sense) on an affine scheme $X$ over $k$, then the dur sheaf $X\tilde{\tilde{/}}G$ of…

For a polynomial $f(X)=AX^d+C \in \mathbb{F}_p[X]$ with $A\neq 0$ and $d\geq 2$, we prove that if $d\;|\;p-1$ and $f^i(0)\neq f^j(0)$ for $0\leq i<j\leq N$, then $\#f^N(\mathbb{F}_p) \sim \frac{2p}{(d-1)N},$ where $f^N$ is the $N$-th…

We establish estimates for the number of solutions of certain affine congruences. These estimates are then used to prove Manin's conjecture for a cubic surface split over Q and whose singularity type is D_4. This improves on a result of…

We consider codes defined over an affine algebra $\mathcal A=R[X_1,\dots,X_r]/\left\langle t_1(X_1),\dots,t_r(X_r)\right\rangle$, where $t_i(X_i)$ is a monic univariate polynomial over a finite commutative chain ring $R$. Namely, we study…

Let $\A=\{a_1<a_2<a_3.....<a_n<...\}$ be an infinite sequence of integers and let $R_2(n)=|\{(i,j):\ \ a_i+a_j=n;\ \ a_i,a_j\in \A;\ \ i\le j\}|$. We define $S_k=\s_{l=1}^k(R_2(2l)-R_2(2l+1))$. We prove that, if $L^{\infty}$ norm of…

We present a new approach to solving polynomial ordinary differential equations by transforming them to linear functional equations and then solving the linear functional equations. We will focus most of our attention upon the first-order…

We consider affine representable algebras, that is, finitely generated algebras over a field that can be embedded into some matrix algebra over a commutative algebra. We show that this algebra can in fact be chosen to be a polynomial…

We build convergent discretizations and semi-implicit solvers for the Infinity Laplacian and the game theoretical $p$-Laplacian. The discretizations simplify and generalize earlier ones. We prove convergence of the solution of the Wide…

Erd\H{o}s and Graham define $g(n) = n + \phi(n)$ and the iterated application $g_k(n) = g(g_{k-1}(n))$. They ask for solutions of $g_{k+r}(n) = 2 g_{k}(n)$ and observe $g_{k+2}(10) = 2 g_{k}(10)$ and $g_{k+2}(94) = 2 g_{k}(94)$. We show…

The eigenvalue problem for a linear function L centers on solving the eigen-equation Lx = rx. This paper generalizes the eigenvalue problem from a single linear function to an iterated function system F consisting of possibly an infinite…

This paper deals with the Mittag-Leffler polynomials (MLP) by extracting their essence which consists of real polynomials with fine properties. They are orthogonal on the real line instead of the imaginary axes for MLP. Beside recurrence…

Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, we generalize the result of Vaughan for ternary admissible exponent. Moreover, we use the refined admissible…

Let $a_{i1}x_1+\cdots+a_{ik}x_k=0$, $i\in[m]$ be a balanced homogeneous system of linear equations with coefficients $a_{ij}$ from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We say that a solution $x=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ with $x_1,\ldots, x_k\in…

In 1826 Abel started the study of the polynomial Pell equation $x^2-g(u)y^2=1$. Its solvability in polynomials $x(u), y(u)$ depends on a certain torsion point on the Jacobian of the hyperelliptic curve $v^2=g(u)$. In this paper we study the…

For given $p\in\lbrack1,\infty]$ and $g\in L^{p}\mathbb{(R)}$, we establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions $f\in L^{p}(\mathbb{R)}$, to the equation \[ f(x)-af(bx)=g(x), \] where $a\in\mathbb{R}$, $b\in\mathbb{R} \setminus…

We prove an explicit formula for the number of $n \times n$ upper triangular matrices, over $GF(q)$, whose square is the zero matrix. This formula was recently conjectured by Sasha Kirillov and Anna Melnikov[KM].
