It is shown that any smooth closed orientable manifold of dimension $2k + 1$, $k \geq 2$, admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^{3k}$. This improves by $1$ the previously known lower bound of $3k+1$ on the possible…

This paper gives two different proofs to a structural theorem of decreasing minimization (lexicographic optimization) on integrally convex sets. The theorem states that the set of decreasingly minimal elements of an integrally convex set…

A weak bialgebra is known to be a special case of a bialgebroid. In this paper we study the relationship of this fact with the Tannaka theory of bialgebroids as developed in [4]. We obtain a Tannaka representation theorem with respect to a…

Let $(M,\bar{g}, e^{-f}d\mu)$ be a complete metric measure space with Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature bounded below by a positive constant. We prove that, in $M$, there is no complete two-sided $L_f$-stable immersed $f$-minimal hypersurface…

We study locally univalent functions $f$ analytic in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane such that $|{f"(z)/f'(z)}|(1-|z|^2)\leq 1+C(1-|z|)$ holds for all $z\in\mathbb{D}$, for some $0<C<\infty$. If $C\leq 1$, then $f$ is…

Pronk's theorem on bicategories of fractions is applied, in almost all cases in the literature, to 2-categories of geometrically presentable stacks on a 1-site. We give an proof that subsumes all previous such results and which is purely…

Let K be F_q((T)), or more generally any field of characteristic p equipped with a valuation having a finite residue field of q elements. Then a polynomial f(x) in K[x] having k+1 nonzero coefficients has at most q^k distinct zeros in K. We…

A conjecture of Hopkins (2018) posits that for certain high-dimensional hypothesis testing problems, no polynomial-time algorithm can outperform so-called "simple statistics", which are low-degree polynomials in the data. This conjecture…

Rings of integer-valued polynomials are known to be atomic, non-factorial rings furnishing examples for both irreducible elements for which all powers factor uniquely (\emph{absolutely irreducibles}) and irreducible elements where some…

Monsky's celebrated equidissection theorem follows from his more general proof of the existence of a polynomial relation $f$ among the areas of the triangles in a dissection of the unit square. More recently, the authors studied a different…

Within the framework of mappings between affine spaces, the notion of $n$-th polarization of a function will lead to an intrinsic characterization of polynomial functions. We prove that the characteristic features of derivations, such as…

Let $f,g_1,\dots,g_m$ be polynomials with real coefficients in a vector of variables $x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)$. Denote by $\text{diag}(g)$ the diagonal matrix with coefficients $g=(g_1,\dots,g_m)$ and denote by $\nabla g$ the Jacobian of $g$. Let…

We establish a version "over the ring" of the celebrated Hilbert Irreducibility Theorem. Given finitely many polynomials in $k+n$ variables, with coefficients in $\mathbb Z$, of positive degree in the last $n$ variables, we show that if…

In this paper, we introduce and investigate a novel class of analytic and univalent functions of negative coefficients in the open unit disk. For this function class, we obtain characterization and distortion theorems as well as the radii…

In this paper we consider nonzero harmonic functions vanishing on some subsets of $\mathbb R^n$. We give a positive solution to Problem 151 from the Scottish Book posed by R. Wavre in 1936. In more detail, we construct a nonzero harmonic…

It is proved that the space of differential forms with weak exterior and co-derivative, is compactly embedded into the space of square integrable differential forms. Mixed boundary conditions on weak Lipschitz domains are considered.…

We prove that the pushforwards of a very general class of fractal measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ under a large family of non-linear maps $F \colon \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$ exhibit polynomial Fourier decay: there exist $C,\eta>0$ such…

Recently, S.~Kanti Patra and Md.~Moid Shaik proved the existence of monochromatic solutions to systems of polynomial equations near zero for particular dense subsemigroups $S$ of $((0,\infty),+)$. We extend their results to a much larger…

Let $K$ be a number field and $f_1,\ldots,f_s\in K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ forms of odd degrees. In 1957, Birch proved that if $n$ is sufficiently large then the forms always have a nontrivial zero in $K^n$. Apart from some small degrees, the…

This work studies optimal polynomial approximants (OPAs) in the classical Hardy spaces on the unit disk, $H^p$ ($1 < p < \infty$). For fixed $f\in H^p$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$, the OPA of degree $n$ associated to $f$ is the polynomial which…
