Let {T_n} be the bipolar filtration of the smooth concordance group of topologically slice knots, which was introduced by Cochran, Harvey, and Horn. It is known that for each n not equal to 1 the quotient group T_n/T_{n+1} has infinite rank…

We prove that for every positive integer $k$ there exist an inclusion-exclusion polynomial $Q_{\{q_1,q_2,...,q_k\}}$ with the height at least $c^{2^k}\prod_{j=1}^{k-2}q_j^{2^{k-j-1}-1}$, where $c$ is a positive constant and…

We study quivers with potential (QPs) whose Jacobian algebras are finite dimensional selfinjective. They are an analogue of the `good QPs' studied by Bocklandt whose Jacobian algebras are 3-Calabi-Yau. We show that 2-representation-finite…

In this paper we prove that every coefficient of twisted Alexander polynomials of torus knots associated with irreducible $\mathrm{SL}_n(\Bbb C)$-representations is an $\Bbb A$-valued locally constant function on the $\mathrm{SL}_n(\Bbb…

This paper introduces and studies a class of Weyl-type algebras \(A_{p,t,\cA} = \Weyl{e^{\pm x^{p} e^{t x}},\; e^{\cA x},\; x^{\cA}}\) constructed over exponential-polynomial rings, where \(\FF\) is a field of characteristic zero, \(\cA\)…

Extensions of the notions of polynomially and rationally convex hulls are introduced. Using these notions, a generalization of a result of Duval and Levenberg on polynomially convex hulls containing no analytic discs is presented. As a…

Let $b,c$ be positive integers, $x_1,x_2$ be indeterminates over $\Z$ and $x_m, m \in \mathbb Z$ be rational functions defined by $x_{m-1}x_{m+1}=x_m^b+1$ if $m$ is odd and $x_{m-1}x_{m+1}=x_m^c+1$ if $m$ is even. In this short note, we…

Using the action of the Galois group of a normal extension of number fields, we generalize and symmetrize various fundamental statements in algebra and algebraic number theory concerning splitting types of prime ideals, factorization types…

In this paper we present a theorem concerning an equivalent statement of the Jacobian Conjecture in terms of Picard-Vessiot extensions. Our theorem completes the earlier work of T. Crespo and Z. Hajto which suggested an effective criterion…

We compute the algebraic K-theory of the non-commutative ring k<x_1,...,x_n>/(m^a) when k is a perfect field of positive characteristic and m=(x_1,...,x_n). We express the answer in terms of the truncation poset Witt vectors developed in…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and let $w \mapsto w^*$ be an involution of $W$ which preserves the set of simple generators $S$. Lusztig and Vogan have recently shown that the set of twisted involutions (i.e., elements $w \in W$ with…

Given a polynomial $x \in {\mathbb R}^n \mapsto p(x)$ in $n=2$ variables, a symbolic-numerical algorithm is first described for detecting whether the connected component of the plane sublevel set ${\mathcal P} = \{x : p(x) \geq 0\}$…

Wick polynomials and Wick products are studied in the context of non-commutative probability theory. It is shown that free, boolean and conditionally free Wick polynomials can be defined and related through the action of the group of…

We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…

Let $A$ be the path algebra of a Dynkin quiver $Q$ over a finite field, and $\mathscr{P}$ be the category of projective $A$-modules. Denote by $C^1(\mathscr{P})$ the category of 1-cyclic complexes over $\mathscr{P}$, and…

We conjecture that, if the quotient of two $q$-binomial coefficients with the same top argument is a polynomial, then it has non-negative coefficients. We summarise what is known about the conjecture and prove it in two non-trivial cases.…

We consider toric resolutions of some strongly mixed weighted homogeneous polynomials of type $J_{10}^-$. We show that the strongly mixed weighted homogeneous polynomial $f := f_{2,2,1,2,1,4}\ (k=3)$ (see \S 3) has no mixed critical points…

We study the expressive power of first-order logic with counting quantifiers, especially the $k$-variable and quantifier-rank-$q$ fragment $\mathsf{C}^k_q$, using homomorphism indistinguishability. Recently, Dawar, Jakl, and Reggio (2021)…

Let $f \in \mathbb Q[x]$ be a square-free polynomial of degree at least $3$, $m_i$, $i=1,2,3$, odd positive integers, and $a_i$, $i=1,2,3$, non-zero rational numbers. We show the existence of a rational function…

Knot polynomials colored with symmetric representations of $SL_q(N)$ satisfy difference equations as functions of representation parameter, which look like quantization of classical ${\cal A}$-polynomials. However, they are quite difficult…
