A Hamiltonian density bounded from below implies that the lowest-energy state is stable. We point out, contrary to common lore, that an unbounded Hamiltonian density does not necessarily imply an instability: Stability is indeed a…

We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e., the cofinality of ^{lambda}lambda, is strictly bigger than cov_lambda(meagre), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…

We construct an entire function $f$ with only three singular values whose order of growth can change under a quasiconformal equivalence. This is a counterexample to the Order Conjecture in the Speiser class ${\mathcal S}$ of entire…

We present a streamlined proof of a result essentially present in previous work of the author, namely that for every set $S = \{s_1, s_2, \ldots\} \subset \mathbb{N}$ of zero Banach density and finite set $A$, there exists a minimal…

We study the smoothness and preserving orientation properties of a global and nonautonomous version of the Hartman--Grobman Theorem when the linear system has a nonuniform contraction on the half line. The nonuniform contraction implies the…

A stationary subset $S$ of a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ {\it reflects fully} at regular cardinals if for every stationary set $T \subseteq \kappa$ of higher order consisting of regular cardinals there exists an $\alpha \in T$…

Let C be an algebraic curve of genus g. Let E be a vector bundle of rank n and degree d. Consider among all subbundles F' of E of rank n' those of maximal degree d'. Then s_n'(E)= n'd-nd'\le n'(n-n')g. If E is stable s_n'(E)>0 while if E is…

Hemaspaandra et al. proved that, for $m > 0$ and $0 < i < k - 1$: if $\Sigma_i^p \BoldfaceDelta DIFF_m(\Sigma_k^p)$ is closed under complementation, then $DIFF_m(\Sigma_k^p) = coDIFF_m(\Sigma_k^p)$. This sharply asymmetric result fails to…

We prove a statement concerning hyperlinearity for central extensions of property (T) groups in the presence of flexible HS-stability, and more generally, weak ucp-stability. Notably, this result is applied to show that if $\text{Sp}_{2g}…

Given a semigroup $S$ and an $n$-partition $\mathcal{P}$ of $S$, $n\in \mathbb{N}$, do there exist $A\in \mathcal{P}$ and a subset $F$ of $S$ such that $S=F ^{-1} \{x \in S: x A \bigcap A\neq\emptyset\}$ and $|F |\leq n$? We give an…

We show that if $h\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a polynomial of degree $k$ such that the congruence $h(x)\equiv0\pmod{q}$ has a solution for every positive integer $q$, then any subset of $\{1,2,\ldots,N\}$ with no two distinct elements with…

The Reifenberg theorem \cite{reif_orig} tells us that if a set $S\subseteq B_2\subseteq \mathbb R^n$ is uniformly close on all points and scales to a $k$-dimensional subspace, then $S$ is H\"older homeomorphic to a $k$-dimensional Euclidean…

For $n<\omega$, we say that the $\Pi^1_n$-reflection principle holds at $\kappa$ and write $\text{Refl}_n(\kappa)$ if and only if $\kappa$ is a $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable cardinal and every $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable subset of $\kappa$ has a…

We consider the Anderson model on the multi-dimensional cubic lattice and prove a positive lower bound on the density of states under certain conditions. For example, if the random variables are independently and identically distributed and…

Given an equivalence class $[A]$ in the measure algebra of the Cantor space, let $\hat\Phi([A])$ be the set of points having density 1 in $A$. Sets of the form $\hat\Phi([A])$ are called $\mathcal{T}$-regular. We establish several results…

Strong bounds are obtained for the number of automorphic forms for the group $\Gamma_0(q) \subseteq \operatorname{Sp}(4,\mathbb{Z})$ violating the Ramanujan conjecture at any given unramified place, which go beyond Sarnak's density…

Large algebraic structures are found inside the space of sequences of continuous functions on a compact interval having the property that, the series defined by each sequence converges absolutely and uniformly on the interval but the series…

We give the first examples of infinite sets of primes S such that Hilbert's Tenth Problem over Z[S^{-1}] has a negative answer. In fact, we can take S to be a density 1 set of primes. We show also that for some such S there is a punctured…

Suppose that $\alpha \in (0,2)$ and that $X$ is an $\alpha$-stable-like process on $\R^d$. Let $F$ be a function on $\R^d$ belonging to the class $\bf{J_{d,\alpha}}$ (see Introduction) and $A_{t}^{F}$ be $\sum_{s \le t}F(X_{s-},X_{s}), t>…

Let S be a C^2 H-minimal noncharacteristic hypersurface in the first Heisenberg group. We show that if S contains a graphical strip, then it is not a stable minimal surface. Moreover, we show that if S is a C^2 H-minimal noncharacteristic…
