Let X be a projective geometrically irreducible non-singular algebraic curve defined over a finite field F of order $q^2$. If the number of F-rational points of X satisfies the Hasse-Weil upper bound, then X is said to be F-maximal. For a…

A power series being given as the solution of a linear differential equation with appropriate initial conditions, minimization consists in finding a non-trivial linear differential equation of minimal order having this power series as a…

A super-conformal map and a minimal surface are factored into a product of two maps by modeling the Euclidean four-space and the complex Euclidean plane on the set of all quaternions. One of these two maps is a holomorphic map or a…

We study the problem of ranking with submodular valuations. An instance of this problem consists of a ground set $[m]$, and a collection of $n$ monotone submodular set functions $f^1, \ldots, f^n$, where each $f^i: 2^{[m]} \to R_+$. An…

Many classical results in algebraic geometry arise from investigating some extremal behaviors that appear among projective varieties not lying on any hypersurface of fixed degree. We study two numerical invariants attached to such…

Originating in the work of A.M. Semikhatov and D. Adamovi\'c, inverse reductions are embeddings involving W-algebras corresponding to the same Lie algebra but different nilpotent orbits. Here, we show that an inverse reduction embedding…

We study several constrained variational problem in the 2-Wasserstein metric for which the set of probability densities satisfying the constraint is not closed. For example, given a probability density $F_0$ on $\R^d$ and a time-step $h>0$,…

Let W be a smooth complex quasiprojective variety with the action of a connected reductive group G. Adapting the stratification approach of Teleman to a microlocal context, we prove a vanishing theorem for the functor of G-invariant…

Given $k\ge 2$ and two $k$-graphs ($k$-uniform hypergraphs) $F$ and $H$, an $F$-factor in $H$ is a set of vertex disjoint copies of $F$ that together cover the vertex set of $H$. Lenz and Mubayi were first to study the $F$-factor problems…

Relaxing first-class constraint conditions in the usual Drinfeld-Sokolov Hamiltonian reduction leads, after symmetry fixing, to realizations of W algebras expressed in terms of all the J-current components. General results are given for G a…

We study the \emph{picture space} $X^d(G)$ of all embeddings of a finite graph $G$ as point-and-line arrangements in an arbitrary-dimensional projective space, continuing previous work on the planar case. The picture space admits a natural…

Consider the problem of minimizing a lower semi-continuous semi-algebraic function $f \colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R} \cup \{+\infty\}$ on an unbounded closed semi-algebraic set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^n.$ Employing adequate tools of…

Let $K$ be a field and $P=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$. The technique of elimination by substitution is based on discovering a coherently $Z=(z_1,\dots,z_s)$-separating tuple of polynomials $(f_1,\dots,f_s)$ in an ideal $I$, i.e., on finding…

Let $\mathfrak p$ be a proper parabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. Writing $\mathfrak p=\mathfrak r\oplus \mathfrak m$, with $\mathfrak r$ being the Levi factor of $\mathfrak p$ and $\mathfrak m$ the nilpotent radical…

The o-minimal structure generated by the restricted Pfaffian functions, known as restricted sub-Pfaffian sets, admits a natural measure of complexity in terms of a format $\mathcal{F}$, recording information like the number of variables and…

Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface. Fix a positive integer r and two nonnegative integers d_p and d_z. Consider all pairs of the form (F, f), where F is a holomorphic vector bundle on X of rank r and degree d_z-d_p, and f :…

The problem of testing low-degree polynomials has received significant attention over the years due to its importance in theoretical computer science, and in particular in complexity theory. The problem is specified by three parameters:…

For a fixed finite collection of graphs ${\cal F}$, the ${\cal F}$-M-DELETION problem asks, given an $n$-vertex input graph $G,$ for the minimum number of vertices that intersect all minor models in $G$ of the graphs in ${\cal F}$. by…

Let $p$ be a prime, $F$ a totally real field in which $p$ is unramified, and $X/\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p$ a Shimura variety associated to ${\rm Res}_{F/\mathbb{Q}} {\rm GL}_2$ (or a PEL Hilbert modular variety). A mod $p$ Hilbert modular…

The principal aim of this work is to provide a family of unisolvent and minimal physical degrees of freedom, called weights, for N\'ed\'elec second family of finite elements. Such elements are thought of as differential forms $…
