We present a construction of new invariant sets for fibred polynomial dynamics with base an irrational rotation over the unit circle, called multi-curves. Furthermore, the local dynamical theory for attracting invariant curves is extended…
In this survey, different aspects of the theory of orthogonal polynomials of one (real or complex) variable are reviewed. Orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are not discussed.
This is a non-technical survey of a recent theory of valuations on manifolds constructed in math.MG/0503397, math.MG/0503399, math.MG/0509512, math.MG/0511171 and actually a guide to this series of articles. We review also some recent…
This paper explores the existence of kinematical gauge transformations for Lorentz invariant equations which describe a multiplet of two spin $\frac{1}{2}$ particles. For this multiplet the additional gauge invariance can be in form of…
We consider some string invariants at genus two that appear in the analysis of the $D^8\mathcal{R}^4$ and $D^6\mathcal{R}^5$ interactions in type II string theory. We conjecture a Poisson equation involving them and the Kawazumi--Zhang…
We look at the covariant techniques and the ideas on constraints and gauge-invariance, which were recently employed in [gr-qc/0702104] to support earlier work by the same authors. That work was criticised in [gr-qc/0503042]. Using very…
A group invariant for links in thickened closed orientable surfaces is studied. Associated polynomial invariants are defined. The group detects nontriviality of a virtual link and determines its virtual genus.
The structure and properties of possible $q$-Minkowski spaces is discussed, and the corresponding non-commutative differential calculi are developed in detail and compared with already existing proposals. This is done by stressing its…
The first three sections of this survey represent an updated and much expanded version of the abstract of my talk at FPSAC'2010: new results are incorporated and several concrete conjectures on the interactions between the three…
In this thesis new objects to the existing set of invariants of Lie algebras are added. These invariant characteristics are capable of describing the nilpotent parametric continuum of Lie algebras. The properties of these invariants, in…
This survey covers in our opinion the most important results in the theory of continuous selections of multivalued mappings (approximately) from 2002 through 2012. It extends and continues our previous such survey which appeared in Recent…
After discussing two senses in which the notion of undecidability is used, we present a survey of undecidable decision problems arising in various branches of mathematics.
This paper contains a selection, dictated by personal taste and by no means complete, of open problems in local discrete holomorphic dynamics.
In the first part of the thesis, and after an introduction to certain models of modified gravity, we study consistent Lagrangians for Lorentz invariant (massive and massless) spin-2 and spin-3/2 particles in flat space. The second part of…
In this paper we are concerned with various graph invariants (girth, diameter, expansion constants, eigenvalues of the Laplacian, tree number) and their analogs for weighted graphs -- weighing the graph changes a combinatorial problem to…
This thesis deals with three different aspects of the combinatorics of permutations. In the first two papers, two flavours of pattern avoiding permutations are examined; and in the third paper Young tableaux, which are closely related to…
Plank problems concern the covering of convex bodies by planks in Euclidean space and are related to famous open problems in convex geometry. In this survey, we introduce plank problems and present surprising applications of plank theorems…
We investigate the nonlinear regression problem under L2 loss (square loss) functions. Traditional nonlinear regression models often result in non-convex optimization problems with respect to the parameter set. We show that a convex…
In this survey we overview known results and get several new results on digraph compositions which generalize several classes of digraphs, such as quasi-transitive digraphs. After an introductory section, the paper is divided into six…
We define a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-valued invariant for transversely-intersecting coassociative $4$-folds equipped with spin structures. Our main result shows this invariant provides an obstruction to separating two such coassociatives through a…
