Let $L$ be a second-order elliptic operator with analytic coefficients defined in $B_1\subseteq\mathbb R^n$. We construct explicitly and canonically a fundamental solution for the operator, i.e., a function $u:B_{r_0}\to\mathbb R$ such that…

Let K be a number field, let f: P_1 --> P_1 be a nonconstant rational map of degree greater than 1, let S be a finite set of places of K, and suppose that u, w in P_1(K) are not preperiodic under f. We prove that the set of (m,n) in N^2…

We prove that zeros and critical points of a random polynomial $p_N$ of degree $N$ in one complex variable appear in pairs. More precisely, if $p_N$ is conditioned to have $p_N(\xi)=0$ for a fixed $\xi \in \C\backslash\set{0},$ we prove…
