Perfect nonlinear functions from a finite group $G$ to another one $H$ are those functions $f: G \rightarrow H$ such that for all nonzero $\alpha \in G$, the derivative $d_{\alpha}f: x \mapsto f(\alpha x) f(x)^{-1}$ is balanced. In the case…

In a previous paper \cite{ref1} we produced a sequence of analytic functions $\{\alpha \uparrow^n z\}_{n=0}^\infty$ when $1 \le \alpha \le e^{1/e}$ and $z$ was in the right half of the complex plane, the \emph{bounded analytic…

A polynomial P in n complex variables is said to have the "half-plane property" (or Hurwitz property) if it is nonvanishing whenever all the variables lie in the open right half-plane. Such polynomials arise in combinatorics, reliability…

We use algebraic techniques to study homological filling functions of groups and their subgroups. If $G$ is a group admitting a finite $(n+1)$--dimensional $K(G,1)$ and $H \leq G$ is of type $F_{n+1}$, then the $n^{th}$--homological filling…

In [1], it is established that a convergent observer with an infinite gain margin can be designed for a given nonlinear system when a Riemannian metric showing that the system is differentially detectable (i.e., the Lie derivative of the…

In this paper we study a new class of transformations on the set of all Hilbert space effects. This consists of the bijective maps which preserve the order and zero product in both directions. The main result of the paper gives a complete…

Fix $N\in\mathbb N$ and assume that for every $n\in\{1,\ldots, N\}$ the functions $f_n\colon[0,1]\to[0,1]$ and $g_n\colon[0,1]\to\mathbb R$ are Lebesgue measurable, $f_n$ is almost everywhere approximately differentiable with…

A set $S\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a nonnegativity witness for a set $U$ of real homogeneous polynomials if $F$ in $U$ is nonnegative on $\mathbb{R}^n$ if and only if it is nonnegative at all points of $S$. We prove that the union of the…

The eigenvectors of an ergodic semigroup of linear normal positive unital maps on a von Neumann algebra are described. Moreover, it is shown by means of examples, that mere positivity of the maps in question is not sufficient for Frobenius…

We investigate some connectedness properties of the set of points K(f) where the iterates of an entire function f are bounded. In particular, we describe a class of transcendental entire functions for which an analogue of the…

Let $f = f(z,t)$ be a function holomorphic in $z \in O \subseteq {\mathbb C}^d$ for fixed $t\in \Omega$ and measurable in $t$ for fixed $z$ and such that$z \mapsto f(z,\cdot)$ is bounded with values in$E := L_{p}(\Omega)$, $1\le p \le…

A weak version of Birkhoff's generalization of the Perron-Frobenius theorem states that every endomorphism of a finite-dimensional real vector that leaves invariant a non-degenerate closed convex cone has an eigenvector in that cone. Here,…

Given a finite collection $\mathbf{V}:=(V_1,\dots,V_N)$ of closed linear subspaces of a real Hilbert space $H$, let $P_i$ denote the orthogonal projection operator onto $V_i$ and $P_{i,\lambda}:= (1-\lambda)I + \lambda P_i$ denote its…

Consider a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ and a decomposition of its indicator function as the sum of two bounded functions $1_A=f_1+f_2$. For every family of linear forms, we find the smallest degree of uniformity $k$ such that assuming…

We examine the linear completeness of trajectories of eigenfunctions associated to non-linear eigenvalue problems, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on a segment. We pursue two specific goals. On the one hand, we establish that…

We find first structural background information about the reasons that for any C*-algebra $A$ and any two Hilbert $A$-modules $M \subseteq N$ with $M^\perp=\{0\}$, every bounded $A$-linear map $N \to A$ (or $N \to N)$ vanishing on $M$ might…

A Hilbert point in $H^p(\mathbb{T}^d)$, for $d\geq1$ and $1\leq p \leq \infty$, is a nontrivial function $\varphi$ in $H^p(\mathbb{T}^d)$ such that $\| \varphi \|_{H^p(\mathbb{T}^d)} \leq \|\varphi + f\|_{H^p(\mathbb{T}^d)}$ whenever $f$ is…

Based on empirical evidence, quantum systems appear to be strictly linear and gauge invariant. This work uses concise mathematics to show that quantum eigenvalue equations on a one dimensional ring can either be gauge invariant or have a…

We establish nonexistence conditions for nonnegative nontrivial solutions to a class of semilinear parabolic equations with a positive potential on weighted graphs, extending results in arXiv:2404.12058 [math.AP] to a broader setting that…

We show that for a large class of piecewise expanding maps T, the bounded p-variation observables u_0 that admits an infinite sequence of bounded p-variation observables u_i satisfying u_i(x)= u_{i+1}(Tx) -u_{i+1}(x) are constant. The…
