We resurrect a standard construction of analytical mechanics dating from the last century. The technique allows one to pass from any dynamical system whose first order evolution equations are known, and whose bracket algebra is not…

This paper provides some preliminary results on the dynamics of certain complex continued fractions. After establishing some general number theoretic results, we explore the dynamics of the natural extension map associated to a specific…

Brake orbits and homoclinics of autonomous dynamical systems correspond, via Maupertuis principle, to geodesics in Riemannian manifolds endowed with a metric which is singular on the boundary (Jacobi metric). Motivated by the classical, yet…

In this paper, we derive some new combinatorial inequalities by applying well known real analytic results like H\"{o}lder's inequality, Young's inequality, and Minkowiski's inequality to the recursively defined sequence $f_n$ of functions…

We prove that given any $\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_{2d-2}\in \R\setminus\Z$, the support of the bifurcation measure of the moduli space of degree $d$ rational maps coincides with the closure of classes of maps having $2d-2$ neutral cycles of…

A direct relation between the enumeration of ordinary maps and that of fully simple maps first appeared in the work of the first and last authors. The relation is via monotone Hurwitz numbers and was originally proved using Weingarten…

We construct a direct natural bijection between descending plane partitions without any special part and permutations. The directness is in the sense that the bijection avoids any reference to nonintersecting lattice paths. The advantage of…

Numerical bifurcation analysis, and in particular two-parameter continuation, is used in consort with numerical simulation to reveal complicated dynamics in the Mackey-Glass equation for moderate values of the delay close to the onset of…

We introduce a new combinatorial object called tower diagrams and prove fundamental properties of these objects. We also introduce an algorithm that allows us to slide words to tower diagrams. We show that the algorithm is well-defined only…

We construct a topos in which the Dedekind reals are countable. The topos arises from a new kind of realizability, which we call parameterized realizability, based on partial combinatory algebras whose application depends on a parameter.…

The metric Mahler measure was first studied by Dubickas and Smyth in 2001 as a means of phrasing Lehmer's conjecture in topological language. More recent work of the author examined a parametrized family of generalized metric Mahler…

We present a new formula for umbral operators that yields three main insights. First, it makes explicit a connection between umbral calculus and iteration theory. Second, it leads naturally to a definition of fractional exponents of umbral…

Elliptic functions considered by Dixon in the nineteenth century and related to Fermat's cubic, $x^3+y^3=1$, lead to a new set of continued fraction expansions with sextic numerators and cubic denominators. The functions and the fractions…

We provide new Schmidt-type results through an investigation of two bijections, which are results involving partitions with parts counted only at given indices. Mork's bijection, the first of these, was originally given as a proof of…

Starting from the recently derived conservative tail-of-tail action [D. Bini and T. Damour, arXiv:2504.20204 [hep-th]] we compute several dynamical observables of binary systems (Delaunay Hamiltonian, scattering angle), at the 6.5…

We introduce a notion of retraction between continuous maps of topological spaces and study the behavior of several numerical invariants under such retractions. These include (co)homological dimensions, the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category,…

We introduce the notions of $\tau$-exceptional and signed $\tau$-exceptional sequences for any finite dimensional algebra. We prove that for a fixed algebra of rank $n$, and for any positive integer $t \leq n$, there is a bijection between…

The main aim of this article is to prove that for any continuous function $f \colon X \to X$, where $X$ is metrizable (or, more generally, for any family $\mathcal{F}$ of such functions, satisfying an additional condition), there exists a…

We study analogues of Minkowski's question mark function $?(x)$ related to continued fractions with even or odd partial quotients. We prove that these functions are H\"older continuous with precise exponents, and that they linearize the…

Filinski constructed a symmetric lambda-calculus consisting of expressions and continuations which are symmetric, and functions which have duality. In his calculus, functions can be encoded to expressions and continuations using primitive…
