We consider the constrained graph alignment problem which has applications in biological network analysis. Given two input graphs $G_1=(V_1,E_1), G_2=(V_2,E_2)$, a pair of vertex mappings induces an {\it edge conservation} if the vertex…

Many complex questions in biology, physics, and mathematics can be mapped to the graph isomorphism problem and the closely related graph automorphism problem. In particular, these problems appear in the context of network visualization,…

Let $G=(U \cup V, E)$ be a bipartite graph, where $U$ represents jobs and $V$ represents machines. We study a new variant of the bipartite matching problem in which each job in $U$ can be matched to at most one machine in $V$, and the…

Denote by PSelf(X) (resp., Self(X)) the partial (resp., full) transformation monoid over a set X, and by Sub(V) (resp., End(V)) the collection of all subspaces (resp., endomorphisms) of a vector space V. We prove various results that imply…

We consider the moment map $m:\mathbb{P}V_n\rightarrow \text{i}\mathfrak{u}(n)$ for the action of $\text{GL}(n)$ on $V_n=\otimes^{2}(\mathbb{C}^{n})^{*}\otimes\mathbb{C}^{n}$, and study the critical points of the functional $F_n=\|m\|^{2}:…

The problem of arrangement of a real algebraic curve on a real algebraic surface is related to the 16th Hilbert problem. We prove in this paper new restrictions on arrangement of nonsingular real algebraic curves on an ellipsoid. These…

We consider smooth bounded surfaces with a smooth boundary and a prescribed background metric g_0. We now consider all metrics g conformal to g_0 which have a prescribed volume M. We now minimize the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator…

In this paper we study nonlinear interpolation problems for interpolation and peak-interpolation sets of function algebras. The subject goes back to the classical Rudin-Carleson interpolation theorem. In particular, we prove the following…

We consider all compatible topologies of an arbitrary finite-dimensional vector space over a non-trivial valuation field whose metric completion is a locally compact space. We construct the canonical lattice isomorphism between the lattice…

Let $M$ be a compact surface and $P$ be either $\mathbb{R}$ or $S^1$. For a smooth map $f:M\to P$ and a closed subset $V\subset M$, denote by $\mathcal{S}(f,V)$ the group of diffeomorphisms $h$ of $M$ preserving $f$, i.e. satisfying the…

Let $G$ be a discrete group and let $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ be two subgroups of $G$-valued continuous functions defined on two $0$-dimensional compact spaces $X$ and $Y$. A group isomorphism $H$ defined between $\mathcal A$ and…

Let $p$ be a prime $e$ be a positive integer, $q = p^e$, and let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field of $q$ elements. Let $m,n$, $1\le m,n\le q-1$, be integers. The monomial digraph $D= D(q;m,n)$ is defined as follows: the vertex set of…

We address a natural question in noncommutative geometry, namely the rigidity observed in many examples, whereby noncommutative spaces (or equivalently their coordinate algebras) have very few automorphisms by comparison with their…

The edge of torn elastic sheets and growing leaves often form a hierarchical buckling pattern. Within non-Euclidean plate theory this complex morphology can be understood as low bending energy isometric immersions of hyperbolic Riemannian…

We consider a commutative algebra $\mathbb{B}$ over the field of complex numbers with a basis $\{e_1,e_2\}$ satisfying the conditions $(e_1^2+e_2^2)^2=0$, $e_1^2+e_2^2\ne 0$. Let $D$ be a bounded domain in the Cartesian plane $xOy$ and…

We show that any two Hadamard graphs on the same number of vertices are quantum isomorphic. This follows from a more general recipe for showing quantum isomorphism of graphs arising from certain association schemes. The main result is built…

This paper gives a complete answer to the following problem: Find the circle companion of the Hardy space of the unit disk with values in the space of all bounded linear operators between two separable Hilbert spaces. Classically, the…

We construct splash-squeeze singularities for the free boundary ideal incompressible plasma-vacuum system, in which two arcs of the plasma boundary come together to form a smooth, glancing self-intersection. As the interface…

In this note we consider compact homomorphisms and endomorphisms between various Dales-Davie algebras. In particular, we obtain fairly complete results when the underlying set is the disc or the unit circle. Comparable results when the…

Let V be a compact real analytic surface with isolated singularities embedded in $R^N$, and assume its smooth part is equipped with a Riemannian metric that is induced from some analytic Riemannian metric on $R^N$. We prove: 1. Each point…
