Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a prefect field of positive characteristic. Let $I$ be an unmixed ideal in $R$ and let $J$ be a generic link of $I$ in $S=R[u_{ij}]_{c \times r}$. We describe the parameter test submodule…

Let (C, p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_n) be a general marked curve of genus g, and q_1, q_2, ..., q_n \in P^r be a general collection of points. We determine when there exists a nondegenerate degree d map f : C \to P^r so that f(p_i) = q_i for all i.…

The Hopf sign conjecture states that a compact Riemannian 2d-manifold M of positive curvature has Euler characteristic X(M)>0 and that in the case of negative curvature X(M) (-1)^d >0. The Hopf product conjecture asks whether a positive…

The definition of the intersection number of a map with a closed manifold can be extended to the case of a closed stratified set such that the difference between dimensions of its two biggest strata is greater than $1$. The set Sigma of…

We say that a complex analytic space, $X$, is an intersection cohomology manifold if and only if the shifted constant sheaf on $X$ is isomorphic to intersection cohomology; this is quickly seen to be equivalent to $X$ being a homology…

In this paper we study variations of the Hopf theorem concerning continuous maps $f$ of a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$. We investigate the case when $M$ is a closed convex $n$-dimensional surface and…

Let $S, K$ be two subrings of a finite ring $R$. Then the generalized non-commuting graph of subrings $S, K$ of $R$, denoted by $\Gamma_{S, K}$, is a simple graph whose vertex set is $(S \cup K) \setminus (C_K(S) \cup C_S(K))$ and two…

We prove (and improve) the Muir-Suffridge conjecture for holomorphic convex maps. Namely, let $F:\mathbb B^n\to \mathbb C^n$ be a univalent map from the unit ball whose image $D$ is convex. Let $\mathcal S\subset \partial \mathbb B^n$ be…

We investigate basic properties of mappings of finite distortion $f:X \to \mathbb{R}^2$, where $X$ is any metric surface, i.e., metric space homeomorphic to a planar domain with locally finite $2$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. We introduce…

Let M be a smooth connected compact surface, P be either the real line R^1 or the circle S^1, and f:M-->P be a smooth mapping. In a previous series of papers for the case when f is a Morse map the author calculated the homotopy types of…

The concept of (a,b)-module comes from the study the Gauss-Manin lattices of an isolated singularity of a germ of an holomorphic function. It is a very simple ''abstract algebraic structure'', but very rich, whose prototype is the formal…

Given a projective smooth curve $X$ over any field $k$, we discuss two notions of global $\mathbb{A}^1$ degree of a finite morphism of smooth curves $f: X \to \mathbb{P}^1_k$ satisfying certain conditions. One originates from computing the…

We give a generalization of the duality of a zero-dimensional complete intersection to the case of one-dimensional almost complete intersections, which results in a {\em Gorenstein module} $M=I/J$. In the real case the resulting pairing has…

We prove that the preimage of a germ of a singular analytic hypersurface under a germ of a finite holomorphic map $g: (\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ is again singular. This provides a generalization of previous results of…

Let $X$ be a topological space and $f:X\to X$ a bijection. Let ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ be a set of integers such that an integer $n$ is an element of ${\mathcal C}(X,f)$ if and only if the bijection $f^n:X\to X$ is continuous. A subset $S$ of…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein local ring and let $M, N$ be two Cohen-Macaulay \ $A$-modules with $M$ linked to $N$ via a Gorenstein ideal $\mathfrak{q}$. Let $L$ be another finitely generated $A$-module. We show that $Ext^i_A(L,M)…

Maps between manifolds $M^m\to N^{m+\ell}$ ($\ell>0$) have multiple points, and more generally, multisingularities. The closure of the set of points where the map has a particular multisingularity is called the multisingularity locus. There…

For $f,g:X\longrightarrow X$ continuous and commuting maps of a Hausdorff space, we investigate various conditions on $X$ and on the pair $(f,g)$ which provide existence of a coincidence value. We introduce generalized notions of the…

For any $i,j \ge 0$ with $i+j =1$, let $\bad(i,j)$ denote the set of points $(x,y) \in \R^2$ for which $ \max \{\|qx\|^{1/i}, \|qy\|^{1/j} \} > c/q $ for all $ q \in \N $. Here $c = c(x,y)$ is a positive constant. Our main result implies…

Zeckendorf's theorem states that every positive integer can be uniquely decomposed as a sum of nonconsecutive Fibonacci numbers. The distribution of the number of summands converges to a Gaussian, and the individual measures on gaps between…
