Inspired by Morrey's Problem (on rank-one convex functionals) and the Burkholder integrals (of his martingale theory) we find that the Burkholder functionals $B_p$, $p \ge 2$, are quasiconcave, when tested on deformations of identity $f\in…

We prove a theorem on iterated forcing that can be used for preservation of $\aleph_2$ and $\aleph_1$ in iterations with supports of size $\aleph_1$ of forcings that have amalgamation properties similar to those present in the perfect set…

In this work, we give combinatorial proofs for generating functions of two problems, i.e., flushed partitions and concave compositions of even length. We also give combinatorial interpretation of one problem posed by Sylvester involving…

We consider a special class of binomial sums involving harmonic numbers and we prove three identities by using the elementary method of the partial fraction decomposition. Some applications to infinite series and congruences are given.

This paper deals with the reducibility property of semidirect products of the form $\bf V*\bf D$ relatively to graph equation systems, where $\bf D$ denotes the pseudovariety of definite semigroups. We show that, if the pseudovariety $\bf…

Let C denote any of the following cardinal characteristics of Boolean algebras: incomparability, spread, character, pi-character, hereditary Lindelof number, hereditary density. It is shown to be consistent that there exists a sequence…

When multiple hypotheses are tested, interest is often in ensuring that the proportion of false discoveries (FDP) is small with high confidence. In this paper, confidence upper bounds for the FDP are constructed, which are simultaneous over…

We derive a collection of identities for bivariate Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials using essentially a matrix approach as well as properties of such polynomials when the variables $x$ and $y$ are replaced by polynomials. A wealth of…

We establish two binomial coefficient--generalized harmonic sum identities using the partial fraction decomposition method. These identities are a key ingredient in the proofs of numerous supercongruences. In particular, in other works of…

Using a property of the q-shifted factorial, an identity for q-binomial coefficients is proved, which is used to derive the formulas for the q-binomial coefficient for negative arguments. The result is in agreement with an earlier paper…

The bifactor model and its extensions are multidimensional latent variable models, under which each item measures up to one subdimension on top of the primary dimension(s). Despite their wide applications to educational and psychological…

We give an elementary probabilistic proof of a binomial identity. The proof is obtained by computing the probability of a certain event in two different ways, yielding two different expressions for the same quantity.

Buchstaber invariant is a numerical characteristic of a simplicial complex, arising from torus actions on moment-angle complexes. In the paper we study the relation between Buchstaber invariants and classical invariants of simplicial…

In this article, we obtain upper bounds on the number of irreducible factors of some classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield some of the well known irreducibility criteria. For devising our results, we…

Let $\mathcal S$ be a single condition Schubert variety with an arbitrary number of strata. Recently, an explicit description of the summands involved in the decomposition theorem applied to such a variety has been obtained in a paper of…

We give an alternative proof of the Adler-Shiota-van Moerbeke formula for the BKP hierarchy. The proof is based on a simple expression for the generator of additional symmetries and the Fay identity of the BKP hierarchy.

In the paper we provide some polynomial identities for finite-dimensional algebras. A list of well known single polynomial identities is exposed and the classification of all $2$-dimensional algebras with respect to these identities is…

We give variations on Ando's result comparing $f(B)-f(A)$ and $f(|B-A|)$ with respect to unitarily invariant norms on matrices.

In this paper we present our variant of quantum antisymmetry and quantum Jacobi identity.

We define forcing orders which add witnesses to the failure of various forms of Friedman's Property. These posets behave similarly to the forcing order adding a nonreflecting stationary set but have the advantage of allowing the…
