We establish a Liouville-type inequality for the values, at a common nonzero algebraic point, of arbitrary Mahler Mq-functions. As an application, we prove that no such value is a Liouville number, or even a U -number. This solves a…

Using Polyakov's functional integral approach with the Liouville action functional defined in \cite{ZT2} and \cite{LTT}, we formulate quantum Liouville theory on a compact Riemann surface X of genus g > 1. For the partition function <X> and…

In this note, we study Liouville type theorem for conformal Gaussian curvature equation (also called the mean field equation) $$ -\Delta u=K(x)e^u, in R^2 $$ where $K(x)$ is a smooth function on $R^2$. When $K(x)=K(x_1)$ is a sign-changing…

Let $F$ be a number field, $k$ a positive integer. In this paper, we define the Mobius and Liouville functions of order $k$ in $F$. We give a formula about the partial sums of them by using elementary number theory and complex analysis.…

The behavior of harmonic functions on Riemannian manifolds under lower bounds of the Ricci curvature has been studied from both analytic and geometric viewpoints. For example, some Liouville type theorems are obtained under lower bounds of…

We study Liouville type of theorems for the Navier-Stokes and the Euler equations on $\Bbb R^N$, $N\geq 2$. Specifically, we prove that if a weak solution $(v,p)$ satisfies $|v|^2 +|p| \in L^1 (0,T; L^1(\Bbb R^N, w_1(x)dx))$ and $\int_{\Bbb…

Let $H_k$ be the set of all normalized primitive holomorphic cusp forms of even integral weight $k\geq 2$ for the full modular group $SL(2, \mathbb{Z})$, and let $j\geq 3$ be any fixed integer. For $f\in H_k$, we write $\lambda_{{\rm{sym}^j…

In this paper we study the Liouville type properties for solutions to the steady incompressible Navier-Stoks equations in $\mathbf{R}^{3}$. It is shown that any solution to the steady Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbf{R}^{3}$ with finite…

We prove a function-field analogue of Bourgain's $L^2$ pointwise ergodic theorem. Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$, let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the ring of polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and let $\mathbb{F}_q[t][u]$ be the…

In this paper, we formulate a regular $q$-fractional Sturm--Liouville problem (qFSLP) which includes the left-sided Riemann--Liouville and the right-sided Caputo q-fractional derivatives of the same order $\alpha$, $\alpha\in (0,1)$. The…

We present several Liouville type results for the $p$-Laplacian in $\R^N$. Suppose that $h$ is a nonnegative regular function such that $$ h(x) = a|x|^\gamma\ {\rm for}\ |x|\ {\rm large},\ a>0\ {\rm and}\ \gamma> -p. $$ We obtain the…

This article is a review of functional $f(R)$ approximations in the asymptotic safety approach to quantum gravity. It mostly focusses on a formulation that uses a non-adaptive cutoff, resulting in a second order differential equation. This…

In this paper, we are concerned with a Liouville-type result of the nonlinear integral equation \begin{equation*} u(x)=\overrightarrow{l}+C_*\int_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}\frac{u(1-|u|^{2})}{|x-y|^{n-\alpha}}dy. \end{equation*} Here $u:…

Define {\em the Liouville function for $A$}, a subset of the primes $P$, by $\lambda_{A}(n) =(-1)^{\Omega_A(n)}$ where $\Omega_A(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ coming from $A$ counting multiplicity. For the traditional Liouville…
