Experimental studies have found unusual transport properties in Ce$_3$Bi$_4$Pd$_3$ which are potentially a consequence of the interplay between band-structure topology and electronic correlations. Based on these measurements, the existence…
We show that there exist constants $\alpha,\epsilon>0$ such that for every positive integer $n$ there is a continuous odd function $f:S^m\to S^n$, with $m\geq \alpha n$, such that the $\epsilon$-expansion of the image of $f$ does not…
We will present many strong partial results towards a classification of exceptional planar/PN monomial functions on finite fields. The techniques we use are the Weil bound, Bezout's theorem, and Bertini's theorem.
For any $n > 0$ and $0 \leq m < n$, let $P_{n,m}$ be the poset of projective equivalence classes of $\{-,0,+\}$-vectors of length $n$ with sign variation bounded by $m$, ordered by reverse inclusion of the positions of zeros. Let…
We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solutions which grow at most like the distance to the boundary to a power given by the natural scaling exponent of the equation; in other words,…
It is disproved the Tokareva's conjecture that any balanced boolean function of appropriate degree is a derivative of some bent function. This result is based on new upper bounds for the numbers of bent and plateaued functions.
In this paper we will discuss the derivation of the so-called vanishing beta function curves which can be used to explore the fixed point structure of the theory under consideration. This can be applied to the O($N$) symmetric theories,…
We present a construction of partial spread bent functions using subspaces generated by linear recurring sequences (LRS). We first show that the kernels of the linear mappings defined by two LRS have a trivial intersection if and only if…
This work concerns a Liouville type result for positive, smooth solution $v$ to the following higher-order equation \[ {\mathbf P}^{2m}_n (v) = \frac{n-2m}2 Q_n^{2m} (\varepsilon v+v^{-\alpha} ) \] on $\mathbb S^n$ with $m \geq 2$, $3 \leq…
The construction of permutation trinomials of the form $X^r(X^{\alpha (2^m-1)}+X^{\beta(2^m-1)} + 1)$ over $\F_{2^{2m}}$, where $m,~r\text{ and }\alpha > \beta$ are positive integers, is an active area of research. Several classes of…
In previous work, we showed that an anomaly in the one point function of marginal operators is related by the Wess-Zumino condition to the Euler density anomaly on a two dimensional defect or boundary. Here we analyze in detail the two…
For a generalization of the Gellerstedt operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions in a Tricomi domain. We establish Poho\v{z}aev-type identities and prove the nonexistence of nontrivial regular solutions. Furthermore, we investigate the…
This paper deals with Niho functions which are one of the most important classes of functions thanks to their close connections with a wide variety of objects from mathematics, such as spreads and oval polynomials or from applied areas,…
We prove that for any fixed integer \( n \geq 3 \) and nonzero integer \( m \), the proportion of integral binary forms of degree \( n \) that represent \( m \) tends to zero as the height tends to infinity. In fact, almost all such forms…
We provide sufficient conditions on the components of a vector field, which ensure the existence of Dulac functions depending on special functions for such vector field. We also present some applications and examples in order to illustrate…
In a previous paper, the second author defined integer-valued functions delta_n on the first cohomology of a 3-manifold, generalizing McMullen's Alexander norm. It was shown that these functions give lower bounds on the Thurston norm. In…
The simplest and most natural examples of completely nonunitary contractions on separable complex Hilbert spaces which have polynomial characteristic functions are the nilpotent operators. The main purpose of this paper is to prove the…
The theorem on the existence of three commuting contractions on a Hilbert space and of a linear homogeneous matrix function of three independent variables for which the generalized von Neumann inequality fails is proved.
Nonvanishing theorems play a central role in birational geometry, since they derive geometric consequences from numerical information and constitute a crucial step towards abundance and semiampleness problems. General nonvanishing…
It is proven that up to possible surface terms, the only non-vanishing momentum-dependent amplitudes for the self-dual N=2 string in $R^{2,2}$ are the tree-level two and three-point functions, and the only non-vanishing momentum-independent…
