We present a new systematic method to construct Abelian functions on Jacobian varieties of plane, algebraic curves. The main tool used is a symmetric generalisation of the bilinear operator defined in the work of Baker and Hirota. We give…

The paper starts out from pseudomeasures (in the sense of Serre) which hold the arithmetic properties of the abelian $l$-adic Artin $L$-functions over totally real number fields. In order to generalize to non-abelian $l$-adic $L$-functions,…

The Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a polyhedron (a union of finitely many compact convex polytopes) in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space expresses the Euler characteristic of the polyhedron as a sum of certain curvatures, which are different from…

We obtain an explicit formula for the number of Lam\'e equations (modulo scalar equivalence) with index $n$ and projective monodromy group of order $2N$, for given $n \in \Z$ and $N \in \N$. This is done by performing the combinatorics of…

We introduce a new geometric approach to a manifold equipped with a smooth density function that takes a torsion-free affine connection, as opposed to a weighted measure or Laplacian, as the fundamental object of study. The connection…

We give a pedagogical introduction to hadron spectroscopy and structure studies using functional methods. We explain the basic features of Dyson-Schwinger, Bethe-Salpeter and Faddeev equations, which are employed to calculate the spectra of…

The vectorial nonlinearity of a vector valued function is its distance from the set of affine functions. In 2017, Liu, Mesnager and Chen conjectured a general upper bound for the vectorial linearity. Recently, Carlet proved a lower bound in…

We investigate the existence of Boolean degree $d$ functions on the Grassmann graph of $k$-spaces in the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. For $d=1$ several non-existence and classification results are known, and no non-trivial examples are…

We give an example of a regular dessin d'enfant whose field of moduli is not an abelian extension of the rational numbers, namely it is the field generated by a cubic root of 2. This answers a previous question. We also prove that the…

We present an innovative approach to dimensional analysis, based on a general representation theorem for complete quantity functions admitting a covariant scalar representation; this theorem is in turn grounded in a purely algebraic theory…

We present a straightforward discretization of the Bessel functions $J_n(x)$ to discrete counterparts $B^{(N)}_n(x_m)$, of $N$ integer orders $n$ on $N$ integer points $x_m \equiv m$, that we call discrete Bessel functions. These are built…

For stationary, homogeneous Markov processes (viz., L\'{e}vy processes, including Brownian motion) in dimension $d\geq 3$, we establish an exact formula for the average number of $(d-1)$-dimensional facets that can be defined by $d$ points…

We use the classical umbral calculus to describe Riordan arrays. Here, a Riordan array is generated by a pair of umbrae, and this provides efficient proofs of several basic results of the theory such as the multiplication rule, the…

At the end of 1960-ths Yu.S.Ilyashenko stated the problem: is it true that for any one-dimensional holomorphic foliation with singularities on a Stein manifold leaves intersecting a transversal disc can be uniformized so that the…

The theory of geometric structures on a surface with nonempty boundary can be developed by using a decomposition of such a surface into hexagons, in the same way as the theory of geometric structures on a surface without boundary is…

The \emph{Noetherian class} is a wide class of functions defined in terms of polynomial partial differential equations. It includes functions appearing naturally in various branches of mathematics (exponential, elliptic, modular, etc.). A…

Let X,Y be finite sets and T a set of functions from X -> Y which we will call "tableaux". We define a simplicial complex whose facets, all of the same dimension, correspond to these tableaux. Such "tableau complexes" have many nice…

In this brief article, I summarize attempts with collaborators over the last couple of years to extend the Galileon idea in two important ways. I discuss the effective field theory construction arising from co-dimension greater than one…

We prove an analogue of Belyi's theorem in characteristic two. Our proof consists of the following three steps. We first introduce a new notion called "pseudo-tame" for morphisms between curves over an algebraically closed field of…

The Galileons are a set of terms within four-dimensional effective field theories, obeying symmetries that can be derived from the dynamics of a 3+1-dimensional flat brane embedded in a 5-dimensional Minkowski Bulk. These theories have some…
