Over a number field $K$, a celebrated result of Silverman states that if $\varphi(z)\in K(z)$ is a rational function whose second iterate is not a polynomial, the set of $S$-integral points in the orbit…

Let $K$ be a number field with algebraic closure $\overline{K}$ and let $S$ be a finite set of places of $K$ containing all the archimedean places. It is known from Silverman's result that a forward orbit of a rational map $\varphi$…

This work arose as an aftermath of Cassini's 2002 experiment \cite{bblipt03}, in which the PPN parameter $\gamma$ was measured with an accuracy $\sigma_\gamma = 2.3\times 10^{-5}$ and found consistent with the prediction $\gamma =1$ of…

When the objective has Lipschitz continuous $p$th-order derivatives, it is known that convex-concave minimax problems can be solved with $\mathcal{O}(\epsilon^{-2/(p+1)})$ $p$th-order oracle calls. This complexity upper bound was speculated…

We show with two numerical examples that the conventional expansion in powers of the field for the critical potential of 3-dimensional O(N) models in the large-N limit, does not converge for values of phi^2 larger than some critical value.…

Ova-angular rotations of a prime number are characterized, constructed using the Dirichlet theorem. The geometric properties arising from this theory are analyzed and some applications are presented, including Goldbach's conjecture, the…

We show that the ultralimit of a bounded sequence of Lipschitz maps into pointed metric spaces extends naturally to $p$-bounded sequences of Sobolev maps and that this ultralimit for Sobolev maps enjoys desirable properties. We use this to…

In 2003, H\'{e}thelyi and K\"{u}lshammer proposed that if $G$ is a finite group and $p$ is a prime dividing the group order, then $k(G)\geq 2\sqrt{p-1}$, and they proved this conjecture for solvable $G$ and showed that it is sharp for those…

In this paper, we first establish the local well-posedness (existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence) for the Fornberg-Whitham equation in both supercritical Besov spaces $B^s_{p,r},\ s>1+\frac{1}{p},\ 1\leq p,r\leq+\infty$ and…

Polignac [1] conjectured that for every even natural number $2k (k\geq1)$, there exist infinitely many consecutive primes $p_n$ and $p_{n+1}$ such that $p_{n+1}-p_n=2k$. A weakened form of this conjecture states that for every $k\geq1$,…

This paper is concerned with the Boltzmann equation with specular reflection boundary condition. We construct a unique global solution and obtain its large time asymptotic behavior in the case that the initial data is close enough to a…

We study bifurcations of symmetric elliptic fixed points in the case of \emph{p}:\emph{q} resonances with odd $q\geq 3$. We consider the case where the initial area-preserving map $\bar z =\lambda z + Q(z,z^*)$ possesses the central…

Let p be an odd prime. Let K_p = \Q(zeta_p) be the p-cyclotomic field. We apply a Kummer and Stickelberger relation of K_p to some singular not primary numbers A of K_p connected to p-class group of K_p and prove they verify the congruence…

It is an open question of Erd\H{o}s as to whether the alternating series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n n}{p_n}$ is (conditionally) convergent, where $p_n$ denotes the $n^{\mathrm{th}}$ prime. By using a random sifted model of the primes…

We obtain new linear programming (LP) and constructive bounds for the covering radius of binary orthogonal arrays of strength $2k$. Our LP bounds develop in two alternative scenarios. First, if a point $y \in F_2^n$, where the covering…

We obtain sharp rotation bounds for the subclass of homeomorphisms $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ of finite distortion which have distortion function in $L^p_{loc}$, $p>1$, and for which a H\"older continuous inverse is available. The interest…

Consider a solution $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)$ of a prescribed mean curvature equation \[ {\rm div}\left(\frac{\nabla f}{\sqrt{1+|\nabla f|^{2}}}\right)=2H(x,f) \ \ \ \ {\rm in} \ \ \Omega\subset R^{2}, \] where $\Omega$ is a domain whose…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of cyclic orbital contraction mappings which generalizes the concept of cyclic contraction mappings. We establish the existence of best proximity point of these mappings in the framework of $CAT_p(0)$…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with discriminant $\Delta_E$. For primes $p$ of good reduction, let $N_p$ be the number of points modulo $p$ and write $N_p=p+1-a_p$. In 1965, Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer formulated a conjecture…
