In this paper we introduce the notion of coalgebra symmetry for discrete systems. With this concept we prove that all discrete radially symmetric systems in standard form are quasi-integrable and that all variational discrete quasi-radially…

Let k be a regular F_p-algebra, let A = k[x,y]/(x^b - y^a) be the coordinate ring of a planar cuspical curve, and let I = (x,y) be the ideal that defines the cusp point. We give a formula for the relative K-groups K_q(A,I) in terms of the…

Let $G$ be the group of $\mathbb R$--points of a semisimple algebraic group $\mathcal G$ defined over $\mathbb Q$. Assume that $G$ is connected and noncompact. We study Fourier coefficients of Poincar\' e series attached to matrix…

The concept of matrix rigidity was first introduced by Valiant in 1977. Roughly speaking, a matrix is rigid if its rank cannot be reduced significantly by changing a small number of entries. There has been extensive interest in rigid…

The covariogram of a compact set A contained in R^n is the function that to each x in R^n associates the volume of A intersected with (A+x). Recently it has been proved that the covariogram determines any planar convex body, in the class of…

We describe the ringed-space structure of moduli spaces of jets of linear connections (at a point) as orbit spaces of certain linear representations of the general linear group. Then, we use this fact to prove that the only (scalar)…

The intrinsic nature of a problem usually suggests a first suitable method to deal with it. Unfortunately, the apparent ease of application of these initial approaches may make their possible flaws seem to be inherent to the problem and…

The family of quaternionic quasi-unitary (or quaternionic unitary Cayley--Klein algebras) is described in a unified setting. This family includes the simple algebras sp(N+1) and sp(p,q) in the Cartan series C_{N+1}, as well as many…

This paper investigates the monotonicity of the period function associated with planar Hamiltonian systems of the form $H(x,y) = F(x) + G(y)$. We establish sufficient conditions ensuring the monotonicity of the period function corresponding…

Let k be a commutative ring. We find and characterize a new family of twisted planes (i. e. associative unitary k-algebra structures on the k-module k[X,Y], having k[X] and and k[Y] as subalgebras).Similar results are obtained for the…

Let $D_n$ be the dihedral group with $2n$ elements, and suppose $n$ is greater than one. We call ring system a finite $D_n$-symmetric set of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Ring systems have been used as models for planets surrounded by rings,…

The critical properties of the real phi^4 scalar field theory are studied numerically on the fuzzy sphere. The fuzzy sphere is a matrix (non commutative) discretisation of the algebra of functions on the usual two dimensional sphere. It is…

We analyse the vector bundle moduli arising from generic heterotic compactifications from the point of view of quiver representations. Phenomena such as stability walls, crossing between chambers of supersymmetry, splitting of non-Abelian…

A center of a differential system in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ is an equilibrium point $p$ having a neighborhood $U$ such that $U\setminus \{p\}$ is filled of periodic orbits. A center $p$ is global when $\mathbb{R}^2\setminus \{p\}$ is…

This article presents a generalization of the notion of \emph{Poincar\'e rotation set} to homeomorphisms of the ad\`ele class group $\mathbb{A}/\mathbb{Q}$ of the rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$, which is a connected compact abelian group…

Nonholonomic systems are variational models commonly used for mechanical systems with ideal no-slip constraints. This note provides a differential-geometric derivation of the nonholonomic equations of motion for an arbitrary rigid body…

Our purpose in this paper is to study when a planar differential system polynomial in one variable linearizes in the sense that it has an inverse integrating factor which can be constructed by means of the solutions of linear differential…

We characterize the limit periodic sets of families of polynomial planar vector fields up to homeomorphisms. We show that any limit periodic set is topologically equivalent to a compact and connected semialgebraic set of the sphere with…

We study the stability of periodic trajectories of planar inverse magnetic billiards, a dynamical system whose trajectories are straight lines inside a connected planar domain $\Omega$ and circular arcs outside $\Omega$. Explicit examples…
