A (positive definite integral) quadratic form is called almost 2-universal if it represents all (positive definite integral) binary quadratic forms except those in only finitely many equivalence classes. Oh [7] determined all almost…

In this note we give a direct method to classify all stable forms on $\R^n$ as well as to determine their automorphism groups. We show that in dimension 6,7,8 stable forms coincide with non-degnerate forms. We present necessary conditions…

In this Paper, for every $n>5$, we show examples of pairs articulated $n$-gons $P$ and $P'$ of different area such that every ordered sequence of internal angles of $P$ coincide with some ordered sequence of internal angles of $P'$.

For any $n\geq 6$ we construct almost strongly minimal geometries of type $\bullet \overset{n}{-} \bullet \overset{n}{-}\bullet$ which are $2$-ample but not $3$-ample.

Many authors have recently studied the degenerate harmonic numbers. This paper makes two main contributions. First, we derive several explicit expressions for these numbers, which are a degenerate version of the ordinary harmonic numbers.…

The homogeneous form $\Phi_n(X,Y)$ of degree $\varphi(n)$ which is associated with the cyclotomic polynomial $\phi_n(X)$ is dubbed a {\it cyclotomic binary form}. A positive integer $m\ge 1$ is said to be {\it representable by a cyclotomic…

We describe the algebraic boundaries of the regions of real binary forms with fixed typical rank and of degree at most eight, showing that they are dual varieties of suitable coincident root loci.

In this paper, we show that certain sums of generalized $m$-gonal numbers represent every positive integer if and only if they represent every positive integer up to an explicit bound $C_m$, verifying a conjecture of Sun for sufficiently…

We discuss the possibility of very regular subgroups of a Lie group, in presence of an index figure. Further, representations that reduce action to a very regular boundary.

We prove that if the fundamental 4-form of an almost-quaternionic Hermitian manifold (M, Q, g) of dimension at least eight satisfies the conformal-Killing equation, then (M, Q, g) is quaternionic-Kahler.

Supersymmetric configurations of non-orthogonally intersecting M-5-branes can be obtained by rotation of one of a pair of parallel M-5-branes. Examples preserving 1/4, 3/16 and 1/8 supersymmetry are reviewed.

For integers $k \geq 2$ and $n \geq k+1$, we prove the following: If $n\cdot k$ is even, there is a connected $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. If $n\cdot k$ is odd, there is a connected nearly $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices.

We show that every sufficiently large integer is a sum of a prime and two almost prime squares, and also a sum of a smooth number and two almost prime squares. The number of such representations is of the expected order of magnitude. We…

We prove that each real semisimple Lie algebra G has a Q-form, such that every real representation of G can be realized over the rational numbers Q. This was previously proved by M.S.Raghunathan (and rediscovered by P.Eberlein) in the…

We study the generic and typical ranks of 3-tensors of dimension l x m x n using results from matrices and algebraic geometry. We state a conjecture about the exact values of the generic rank of 3-tensors over the complex numbers, which is…

This paper presents the log-concavity of the $m$-gonal figurate number sequences. The author gives and proves the recurrence formula for $m$-gonal figurate number sequences and its corresponding quotient sequences which are found to be…

We provide lower bounds on the gonality of a graph in terms of its spectral and edge expansion. As a consequence, we see that the gonality of a random 3-regular graph is asymptotically almost surely greater than one seventh its genus.

We classify closed, simply-connected, non-negatively curved 6-manifolds of almost maximal symmetry rank up to equivariant diffeomorphism.

Let $P_8(x)=3x^2-2x$. For positive integers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$, a polynomial of the form $a_1P_8(x_1)+a_2P_8(x_2)+\cdots+a_kP_8(x_k)$ is called an octagonal form. For a positive integer $n$, an octagonal form is called tight $\mathcal…

This is the fifth one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with orthogonal groups of plus type.
