Algebraic surfaces in the complex projective space with a high number of A-type singularities have been presented in a recent paper. We extend the construction in order to obtain lower bounds for the maximal number of A singularities for…

A near-threshold enhancement in the $D_s^+ D_s^-$ system, dubbed as $X(3960)$, is observed by the LHCb collaboration recently. A combined analysis on $\chi_{c0}(3930)~(\to D^+ D^-)$, $X(3960)~(\to D_s^+ D_s^-)$, and $X(3915)~(\to…

We give an overview of the fundamental definitions and results concerning hypersurface singularities, defined by convergent power series over an arbitrary real valued field. This approach combines, on the one hand, the classical case of…

In this paper, we study a positive characteristic analogue of the centers of log canonicity of a pair $(R, \Delta)$. We call these analogues centers of $F$-purity. We prove positive characteristic analogues of subadjunction-like results,…

Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and F-signature are numerical invariants of commutative rings in positive characteristic that measure severity of singularities: for a regular ring both invariants are equal to one and the converse holds under mild…

For a normal F-finite variety $X$ and a boundary divisor $\Delta$ we give a uniform description of an ideal which in characteristic zero yields the multiplier ideal, and in positive characteristic the test ideal of the pair $(X,\Delta)$.…

Let $S$ and $T$ be subsets of $\mathbf{F}_q^n$. We show there are subsets $S'$ of $S$ and $T'$ of $T$ such that $S+T$ is the union of $S+T'$ and $S'+T$, with $|S'| + |T'|$ bounded by $c^n$ with $c < q$. The proof relies on the method of…

The threshold behavior of $e^+ e^-$ annihilation is considered in the channels $B_{s0} \bar B_s^* + c.c.$, $B_{s1} \bar B_s + c.c.$, and $B_{s1} \bar B_s^* +c.c.$, where $B_{s0}$ and $B_{s1}$ are the excited bottom-strange $J^P=0^+$ and…

We study finitely additive extensions of the asymptotic density to all the subsets of natural numbers. Such measures are called density measures. We consider a class of density measures constructed from free ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ and…

We introduce a new type of partitions that consists of partitions whose different parts alternate in parity (e.g., $3+2+2+1+1$). Various properties of this partition function are studied. In particular, we obtain its asymptotic behavior by…

There is a proposition due to Koll\'ar 1997 on computing log canonical thresholds of certain hypersurface germs using weighted blowups, which we extend to weighted blowups with non-negative weights. Using this, we show that the log…

We introduce the notion of curvature parameters for singular plane curves with finite multiplicities and define the notion of curvatures for them. We then provide criteria to determine their singularity types for A-simple singularities. As…

We analyze and show experimental results of the conditional purity, the quantum discord and other related measures of quantum correlation in mixed two-qubit states constructed from a pair of photons in identical polarization states. The…

We introduce and study a new way to catagorize supersingular abelian varieties defined over a finite field by classifying them as fully maximal, mixed, or fully minimal. The type of $A$ depends on the normalized Weil numbers of $A$ and its…

We show, in this first part, that the maximal number of singular points of a normal quartic surface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^3_K$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $2$ is at most $16$. We produce examples with…

We derive two complementarity relations that constrain the individual and bipartite properties that may simultaneously exist in a multi-qubit system. The first expression, valid for an arbitrary pure state of n qubits, demonstrates that the…

We characterize two-weight inequalities for certain maximal truncations of the Hilbert transform in terms of testing conditions on simpler functions. For 1<p<2 and two positive Borel measures u, v on R, we assume that u is doubling, and we…

Various new sufficient conditions for representation of a function of several variables as an absolutely convergent Fourier integral are obtained in the paper. The results are given in terms of $L^p$ integrability of the function and its…

Singularities of even smooth functions are studied. A classification of singular points which appear in typical parametric families of even functions with at most five parameters is given. Bifurcations of singular points near a caustic…

We develop a new cohomology theory in characteristic p>0, the so called F-gauge cohomology, a cohomology with values in the category of so-called F-gauges, which refines the cristalline cohomology. In this first paper we mainly discuss the…
