This paper is devoted to the study of the knot Floer homology groups HFK(S^3,K_{2,n}), where K_{2,n} denotes the (2,n) cable of an arbitrary knot, K. It is shown that for sufficiently large |n|, the Floer homology of the cabled knot depends…

We study the topology of the boundaries of the Milnor fibers of real analytics map-germs $f: (\mathbb{R}^M,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^K,0)$ and $f_{I}:=\Pi_{I}\circ f : (\mathbb{R}^M,0) \to (\mathbb{R}^I,0)$ that admit Milnor's tube fibrations,…

The study concerns a special symbolic calculus of interest for signal analysis. This calculus associates functions on the time-frequency half-plane f>0 with linear operators defined on the positive-frequency signals. Full attention is given…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional division algebra containing a base field $k$ in its center $F$. We say that $A$ is defined over a subfield $F_0$ of $F$ if $A = A_0\otimes_{F_0} F$ for some $F_0$-subalgebra $A_0$ of $A$. We show that: (1) In…

Erd\H{o}s showed that every set of $n$ positive integers contains a subset of size at least $n/(k+1)$ containing no solutions to $x_1 + \cdots + x_k = y$. We prove that the constant $1/(k+1)$ here is best possible by showing that if $(F_m)$…

We prove that $K_n+I$, the complete graph of an even order with a $1$-factor duplicated, admits a decomposition into $2$-factors, each a disjoint union of cycles of length $m \geq 5$ if and only if $m \mid n$, except possibly when $m$ is…

We study the connection between the degree sequence of a $k$-uniform hypergraph and the size of its largest matching. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and let $d_1 \ge d_2 \ge \dots \ge d_n$ be the vertex…

In this paper, we prove the category of finite length modules for the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-orbifold $M(1)^+$ of the Heisenberg vertex operator algebra whose simple composition factors are $M(1)^\pm$ or $M(1,\lambda)$ for $\lambda \in…

Let K be a hyperbolic (-2,3,n) pretzel knot and M = S^3 K its complement. For these knots, we verify a conjecture of Reid and Walsh: there are at most three knot complements in the commensurability class of M. Indeed, if n \neq 7, we show…

We give an affirmative answer to Wilf's conjecture for numerical semigroups satisfying 2 \nu \geq m, where \nu and m are respectively the embedding dimension and the multiplicity of a semigroup. The conjecture is also proved when m \leq 8…

Let $m$, $n$, and $k$ be integers satisfying $0 < k \leq n < 2k \leq m$. A family of sets $\mathcal{F}$ is called an $(m,n,k)$-intersecting family if $\binom{[n]}{k} \subseteq \mathcal{F} \subseteq \binom{[m]}{k}$ and any pair of members of…

Let $n>2r>0$ be integers. We consider families $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of an $n$-element set, in which the union of any two members has size at most $2r$. One of our results states that for $n\geq 6r$ the number of members of size…

In this paper we study the problem of counting Salem numbers of fixed degree. Given a set of disjoint intervals $I_1,\ldots, I_{k}\subset \left[0;\pi\right]$, $1\leq k\leq m$ let $Sal_{m,k}(Q,I_1,\ldots,I_{k})$ denote the set of ordered…

For a Hilbert function space $\mathcal H$ the Smirnov class $\mathcal N^+(\mathcal H)$ is defined to be the set of functions expressible as a ratio of bounded multipliers of $\mathcal H$, whose denominator is cyclic for the action of…

We formulate a "correct" version of the Quillen conjecture on linear group homology for certain arithmetic rings and provide evidence for the new conjecture. In this way we predict that the linear group homology has a direct summand looking…

We compute the Hausdorff and Minkowski dimension of subsets of the symbolic space $\Sigma_m=\{0,...,m-1\}^\N$ that are invariant under multiplication by integers. The results apply to the sets $\{x\in \Sigma_m: \forall\, k, \ x_k x_{2k}...…

Let $K_{m}-H$ be the graph obtained from $K_{m}$ by removing the edges set $E(H)$ of the graph $H$ ($H$ is a subgraph of $K_{m}$). We use the symbol $Z_4$ to denote $K_4-P_2.$ A sequence $S$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical if it has a…

Let $n$ be a positive integer, and let $k$ be a field (of arbitrary characteristic) accessible to symbolic computation. We describe an algorithmic test for determining whether or not a finitely presented $k$-algebra $R$ has infinitely many…

Two types of higher order Lie $\ell$-ple systems are introduced in this paper. They are defined by brackets with $\ell > 3$ arguments satisfying certain conditions, and generalize the well known Lie triple systems. One of the…

Let $B$ be a central simple algebra of degree 3 over a number field $F$ and $K/F$ be a finite extension of degree 3. For an order $S$ of $K$, we determine exactly when $S$ cannot be optimally embedded into all maximal orders of $B$.…
