Using geometric methods for linearizing systems of second order cubically semi-linear ordinary differential equations and third order quintically semi-linear ordinary differential equations, we extend to the fourth order by differentiating…

We consider the second-order cone function (SOCF) $f: {\mathbb R}^n \to \mathbb R$ defined by $f(x)= c^T x + d -\|A x + b \|$. Every SOCF is concave. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for strict concavity of $f$. The parameters $A…

Compounding submodular monotone (i.e. 2-alternating) set functions on a finite set preserves this property, as shown in 2010. A natural generalization to k-alternating functions was presented in 2018, however hardly readable because of page…

In the stochastic frontier model, the composed error term consists of the measurement error and the inefficiency term. A general assumption is that the inefficiency term follows a truncated normal or exponential distribution. In a wide…

Square-tiled surfaces can be classified by their number of squares and their cylinder diagrams (also called realizable separatrix diagrams). For the case of $n$ squares and two cone points with angle $4 \pi$ each, we set up and parametrize…

Let $f_1,\dots,f_m$ be polynomials in $n$ variables with coefficients in a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We estimate the number of points $\underline{x}$ in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ such that each value $f_i(\underline{x})$ is a nonzero square in…

A four-term recurrence relation for squared spherical Bessel functions is shown to yield closed-form expressions for several types of finite weighted sums of these functions. The resulting sum rules, which may contain an arbitrarily large…

Denoting by $\mathbb{M}$ the complexification of the quaternionic algebra $\mathbb{H}$, we characterize the family of those $\mathbb{M}$-valued functions, defined on subsets of $\H$, whose values are actually quaternions, using an intrinsic…

Let $f: X\times K\to \mathbb R$ be a separately continuous function and $\mathcal C$ a countable collection of subsets of $K$. Following a result of Calbrix and Troallic, there is a residual set of points $x\in X$ such that $f$ is jointly…

Conformal field theories have been extremely useful in our quest to understand physical phenomena in many different branches of physics, starting from condensed matter all the way up to high energy. Here we discuss applications of…

In this paper we obtain a precise formula for the $1$-level density of $L$-functions attached to non-Galois cubic Dedekind zeta functions. We find a secondary term which is unique to this context, in the sense that no lower-order term of…

We prove an asymptotic formula with a power saving error term for the (pure or mixed) second moment of central values of L-functions of any two (possibly equal) fixed cusp forms f, g twisted by all primitive characters modulo q, valid for…

We prove an effective estimate with a power saving error term for the number of square-tiled surfaces in a connected component of a stratum of quadratic differentials whose vertical and horizontal foliations belong to prescribed mapping…

We count with a smooth weight the number of $2 \times 2$ integer matrices with a fixed characteristic polynomial with a main term and an error term using bounds for sums of Weyl sums for quadratic roots.

We address the question of computing one selected term of an algebraic power series. In characteristic zero, the best algorithm currently known for computing the $N$th coefficient of an algebraic series uses differential equations and has…

Let $N(5,D_5,X)$ be the number of quintic number fields whose Galois closure has Galois group $D_5$ and whose discriminant is bounded by $X$. By a conjecture of Malle, we expect that $N(5,D_5,X) \sim C X^{1/2}$ for some constant $C$. The…

Using orbifold techniques I construct the Schrodinger functional (SF) for a doublet of Wilson quarks with chirally rotated boundary conditions. This allows to perform checks of universality: for instance, the renormalized SF coupling…

We give two quantum algorithms for computing (twisted) Kloosterman sums attached to a finite field $\mathbf{F}$ of $q$ elements. The first algorithm computes a quantum state containing, as its coefficients with respect to the standard…

We compute the second moment of the Riemann zeta function for shifted arguments over a domain that extends the ones in the literature. We use the Riemann-Siegel formula for the error term in the approximate functional equation and take the…

We consider families of number fields of degree 4 whose normal closures over $\mathbb{Q}$ have Galois group isomorphic to $D_4$, the symmetries of a square. To any such field $L$, one can associate the Artin conductor of the corresponding…
