In this short notice, we prove the non-existence of global solutions to the semilinear damped wave equation on the half-space, and we determine the critical exponent for any space dimension.
Assuming that no family of polynomial-size Boolean circuits can factorize a constant fraction of all products of two $n$-bit primes, we show that the bounded arithmetic theory $\text{PV}_1$, even when augmented by the sharply bounded choice…
This article is concerned with the nonexistence of positive solutions for nonlinear fractional elliptic inequalities in exterior domains of $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq1$. We would like to highlight the fact that our results are new with very weak…
We show that universal elliptic Carmichael numbers do not exist, answering a question of Silverman. Moreover, we show that the probability that an integer $n$, which is not a prime power, is an elliptic Carmichael number for a random curve…
We prove joint universality theorems on the half plane of absolute convergence for general classes of Dirichlet series with an Euler-product, where in addition to vertical shifts we also allow scaling. This generalizes our recent joint…
We prove that there are no bounded domains with smooth boundaries in even-dimensional Euclidean spaces, such that the volumes cut off from them by affine hyperplanes depend algebraically on these hyperplanes. For convex ovals in $R^2$, this…
In this paper, we prove the non-existence of certain semistable Galois representations of a number field. Our consequence can be applied to some geometric problems. For example, we prove a special case of a Conjecture of Rasmussen and…
Using a well-ordering on the reals, one can prove there exists a partition of the three-dimensional Euclidean space into unit circles (PUC). We show that the converse does not hold: there exist models of $\mathsf{ZF}$ without a…
This note presents a short proof of Euler's 36 officer conjecture. This implies that there is no affine plane of order $6$, but we also give a direct proof.
An Euler cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped with integer edges and integer face diagonals. An Euler cuboid is called perfect if its space diagonal is also integer. Some Euler cuboids are already discovered. As for perfect cuboids, none…
This paper deals with the global existence and uniqueness results for the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations with a particular structure for initial data lying in critical spaces. In this case the BKM criterion is not known.
We prove that there is no faithful finite-dimensional representation by skew-hermitian matrices of a ``basic algebra of observables'' B on a noncompact symplectic manifold M. Consequently there exists no finite-dimensional quantization of…
A theorem of Serre states that almost all plane conics over $\mathbb{Q}$ have no rational point. We prove an analogue of this for families of conics parametrised by elliptic curves using elliptic divisibility sequences and a version of the…
For a given ring (domain) in $\overline{\mathbb{R}}^n$ we discuss whether its boundary components can be separated by an annular ring with modulus nearly equal to that of the given ring. In particular, we show that, for all $n\ge 3\,,$ the…
In this article, we investigate how Euler might have been led to conjecture the Prime Number Theorem, based on what he knew. We also speculate on why he did not do so.
The Kepler conjecture asserts that no packing of congruent balls in three-dimensional Euclidean space has density greater than that of the face-centered cubic packing. In 1998, Sam Ferguson and I announced a computer-assisted proof of this…
We study semilinear elliptic inequalities with a potential on infinite graphs. Given a distance on the graph, we assume an upper bound on its Laplacian, and a growth condition on a suitable weighted volume of balls. Under such hypotheses,…
We prove nonexistence of nonconstant global minimizers with limit at infinity of the semilinear elliptic equation $-\Delta u=f(u)$ in the whole $R^N$, where $f\in C^1(R)$ is a general nonlinearity and $N\geq 1$ is any dimension. As a…
We prove complete reducibility for an integrable module for an affine Lie algebra where the canonical central element acts non-trivially. We further prove that integrable modules does not exists for most of the super affine Lie algebras…
By Hartman--Nirenberg's theorem, any complete flat hypersurface in Euclidean space must be a cylinder over a plane curve. However, if we admit some singularities, there are many non-trivial examples. Flat fronts are flat hypersurfaces with…
