A long-standing conjecture asserts that every finite non-abelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. In this paper, we settle the conjecture for a finite $p$-group ($p >2$) of nilpotency class $n$ with certain conditions.

We prove an integral representation result for functionals with growth conditions which give coercivity on the space $SBD^p(\Omega)$, for $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. The space $SBD^p$ of functions whose distributional strain is the sum of…

We derive sharp lower bounds for L^p-functions on the n-dimensional unit hypercube in terms of their p-th marginal moments. Such bounds are the unique solutions of a system of constrained nonlinear integral equations depending on the…

We prove a generalized version of the classic deformation lemma from Morse Theory that considers functions going to $-\infty$ at a compact set, and allowing the lower value of the deformation to be $-\infty$. The result is valid for a class…

Let $E$ be a Jordan rectifiable curve in the complex plane and let $G$ be the bounded component of $\mathbb{C}\backslash E$. Now let $n\in \mathbb{N}$, and let $m_{n,E}$ denote the extremal constants defined by \begin{equation*}m_{n,E}=\inf…

Let $L^{m,p}(\R^n)$ be the Sobolev space of functions with $m^{th}$ derivatives lying in $L^p(\R^n)$. Assume that $n< p < \infty$. For $E \subset \R^n$, let $L^{m,p}(E)$ denote the space of restrictions to $E$ of functions in…

On a complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, we consider $L^{p}_{loc}$ distributional solutions of the the differential inequality $-\Delta u + \lambda u \geq 0$ with $\lambda >0$ a locally bounded function that may decay to $0$ at infinity.…

For a continuous map $T$ of a compact metrizable space $X$ with finite topological entropy, the order of accumulation of entropy of $T$ is a countable ordinal that arises in the context of entropy structure and symbolic extensions. We show…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact, boundaryless manifold of dimension $n$ with the property that either (i) $n=2$ and $(M,g)$ has no conjugate points, or (ii) the sectional curvatures of $(M,g)$ are nonpositive. Let $\Delta$ be the positive…

We present a characterization of one-component inner functions in terms of the location of their zeros and their associated singular measure. As consequence we answer several questions posed by J. Cima and R. Mortini. In particular we prove…

Suppose that $p \in (1,\infty]$, $\nu \in [1/2,\infty)$, $\mathcal{S}_\nu = \left\{ (x_1,x_2) \in \mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{(0, 0)\}: |\phi| < \frac{\pi}{2\nu}\right\}$, where $\phi$ is the polar angle of $(x_1,x_2)$. Let $R>0$ and…

The paper focuses on the $L^{p}$-Positivity Preservation property ($L^{p}$-PP for short) on a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. It states that any $L^p$ function $u$ with $1<p<+\infty$, which solves $(-\Delta + 1)u\ge 0$ on $M$ in the sense of…

We show that if $p \colon M \to N$ is a normal Riemannian covering, with $N$ closed, and $M$ has exponential volume growth, then there are non-constant, positive harmonic functions on $M$. This was conjectured by Lyons and Sullivan in…

We prove certain conjecture holds true for a finite category which has M\"obius inversion. The conjecture states a relationship between the zeta function of a finite category and the Euler characteristic of a finite category.

We study the elliptic maximal functions defined by averages over ellipses and rotated ellipses which are multi-parametric variants of the circular maximal function. We prove that those maximal functions are bounded on $L^p$ for some $p\neq…

This paper studies absolute integrability for functions with values in semi- normed spaces and in locally convex topological vector spaces (LCTVS). We introduce an \emph{upper-integral} approach (based on a $\rho$-variational measure…

In this paper we study some properties of the torsion function with Robin boundary conditions. Here we write the shape derivative of the $L^{\infty}$ and $L^p$ norms, for $p\ge 1$, of the torsion function, seen as a functional on a bounded…

We estimate the $L^{p}$ norms of the discrepancy between the volume and the number of integer points in $r\Omega-x$, a dilated by a factor $r$ and translated by a vector $x$ of a convex body $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ with smooth boundary…

In this paper, we prove power-saving bounds for the corelation of the M\"obius function with polynomial phases of degree $k$ in function fields $\mathbb{F}_p[t]$, when $p > k$. The proof relies on a new approximation result for phases of…
