Given an Orthogonal-Buekenhout-Metz unital $U_{\alpha,\beta}$, embedded in $PG(2,q^2)$, and a point $P\notin U_{\alpha,\beta}$, we study the set of feet, $\tau_{P}(U_{\alpha,\beta})$, of $P$ in $U_{\alpha,\beta}$. We characterize…
Markoff-Lagrange spectrum uncovers exotic topological properties of Diophantine approximation. We investigate asymptotic properties of geometric progressions modulo one and observe significantly analogous results on the set \[ {\mathcal…
We give solutions of a Diophantine equation containing factorials, which can be written as a cubic form, or as a sum of binomial coefficients. We also give some solutions to higher degree forms and relate some solutions to an unsolvable…
We study multi-parameters deformations of isolated singularity function-germs on either a subanalytic set or a complex analytic spaces. We prove that if such a deformation has no coalescing of singular points, then it has constant…
In this paper, we present a general formula for derived sets in general topology. Consequently, more results can be proved in general topology involving derived sets and isolated point sets. More specifically, we can prove that isolated…
We consider Diophantine equations of the kind $|F(x,y)|= m$, where $F(X,Y )\in \bz [X,Y]$ is a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d\ge 3$ that has non-zero discriminant and $m$ is a positive integer. We prove results that simplify those of…
Let A,K be positive integers and u=-2,-1,1 or 2. The main contribution of the paper is a proof that each of the D(u^2)-triples {K,A^2K+2uA,(A+1)^2K+2u(A+1)} has unique extension to a D(u^2)-quadruple.
Building on classical aspects of the theory of Diophantine approximation, we consider the collection of all accumulation points of normalized integer vector translates of points $q\alpha$ with $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}^d$ and $q\in\mathbb{Z}$.…
Given two relatively prime numbers $a$ and $b$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations has a nonnegative integral solution $(x,y)$: $$ ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\quad \mbox{ and }\quad 1 + ax + by \ =\…
For $X$ a connected finite simplicial complex we consider $\Delta^d(X,n)$ the space of configurations of $n$ ordered points of $X$ such that no $d+1$ of them are equal, and $B^d(X,n)$ the analogous space of configurations of unordered…
Let $G$ be a group and let $V$ be an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field $K$. Let $A$ denote the set of $K$-points of $V$. We introduce algebraic sofic subshifts $\Sigma \subset A^G$ and study endomorphisms $\tau \colon…
For two relatively prime positive integers $a, b\in \mathbb{N}$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations $$ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\ \mbox{ and }\ 1 + ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}$$ has a nonnegative…
We generalize a theorem of Delzant classifying compact connected symplectic manifolds with completely integrable torus actions to certain singular symplectic spaces. The assumption on singularities is that if they are not finite quotient…
Given $n\in N$ and $x,\gamma\in R$, let \begin{equation*} ||\gamma-nx||^\prime=\min\{|\gamma-nx+m|:m\in Z, \gcd (n,m)=1\}, \end{equation*} %where $(n,m)$ is the largest common divisor of $n$ and $m$. Two conjectures in the coprime…
The paper deals with best one--sided (lower or upper) Diophantine approximations of the $\ell$-th kind ($\ell\in\mathbb{N}$). We use the ordinary continued fraction expansions to formulate explicit criteria for a fraction…
We study the singular semilinear equation $-Pu = \frac{f}{u^\gamma}$ on a bounded domain $\Omega$ with Dirichlet condition $u \equiv 0$ on $\partial \Omega$ , where $P$ is a second-order elliptic differential operator in nondivergence form.…
In any graph $G$, the domination number $\gamma(G)$ is at most the independence number $\alpha(G)$. The Inverse Domination Conjecture says that, in any isolate-free $G$, there exists pair of vertex-disjoint dominating sets $D, D'$ with…
Diophantine subsets of $\mathbb{Z}$ play a key role in the negative answer to Hilbert's tenth problem. The definition of diophantine set generalizes in several ways to other commutative rings. We compare these definitions. Along the way, we…
Let $f:\mathbb{D}\to\mathbb{C}$ be a bounded analytic function. A set $K\subset\mathbb{D}$ which contains the point $1$ in its boundary is called a convergence set for $f$ at $1$ if $f(z)$ converges to some value $\zeta$ as $z\to1$ with…
