A notion of degeneration of elements in groups is introduced. It is used to parametrize the orbits in a finite abelian group under its full automorphism group by a finite distributive lattice. A pictorial description of this lattice leads…

Let C be a complex smooth projective algebraic curve endowed with an action of a finite group G such that the quotient curve has genus at least 3. We prove that if the G-curve C is very general for these properties, then the natural map…

A finite \emph{$k$-net} of order $n$ is an incidence structure consisting of $k\ge 3$ pairwise disjoint classes of lines, each of size $n$, such that every point incident with two lines from distinct classes is incident with exactly one…

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve over $\mathbb Q$ described by $y^2=a_0x^n+a_1x^{n-1}+\ldots+a_n$, $a_i\in\mathbb Q$. The points $P_{i}=(x_{i},y_{i})\in C(\mathbb{Q})$, $i=1,2,...,k,$ are said to be in a geometric progression of length $k$…

There is a hierarchy of structure conditions for convex sets. In this paper we study a recently defined [3, 8, 9] condition called locally nonconical convexity (abbreviated LNC). Is is easy to show that every strictly convex set is LNC, as…

Discrete sine-Gordon (SG) chains are studied with path-integral molecular dynamics. Chains commensurate with the substrate show the transition from collective quantum creep to pinning at bead masses slightly larger than those predicted from…

When geometric structures on surfaces are determined by the lengths of curves, it is natural to ask: which curves' lengths do we really need to know? It is a result of Duchin--Leininger--Rafi that any flat metric induced by a unit-norm…

For finite q, we classify the countable, descendant-homogeneous digraphs in which the descendant set of any vertex is a q-valent tree. We also give conditions on a rooted digraph G which allow us to construct a countable…

The spectrum of the Laplace operator in a curved strip of constant width built along an infinite plane curve, subject to three different types of boundary conditions (Dirichlet, Neumann and a combination of these ones, respectively), is…

Geometric Invariant Theory gives a method for constructing quotients for group actions on algebraic varieties which in many cases appear as moduli spaces parametrizing isomorphism classes of geometric objects (vector bundles, polarized…

Let $C$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$ by the equation $y^2=x^3+Ax+B$ where $A,B\in\mathbb Q$. A sequence of rational points $(x_i,y_i)\in C(\mathbb Q),\,i=1,2,\ldots,$ is said to form a sequence of consecutive squares on $C$…

Quantum time evolution exhibits rich physics, attributable to the interplay between the density and phase of a wave function. However, unlike classical heat diffusion, the wave nature of quantum mechanics has not yet been extensively…

A new class of patterns for multiplex networks is studied, which consists in a collection of different homogeneous states each referred to a distinct layer. The associated stability diagram exhibits a tricritical point, as a function of the…

This short note gives a sufficient condition for having the class of polynomials dense in the space of square integrable functions with respect to a finite measure dominated by the Lebesgue measure in the real line, here denoted by $L^2$.…

We present in this paper quantum real lines as quantum defomations of the real numbers $\R$.Upon deforming the Heisenberg algebra $\cL$ generated by $(a, a^\dagger)$ in terms of the Moyal $\ast$-product,we first construct q-deformed…

We classify nets of conics in Desarguesian projective planes over finite fields of odd order, namely, two-dimensional linear systems of conics containing a repeated line. Our proof is geometric in the sense that we solve the equivalent…

Let $Q$ be a finite subgraph of the integer grid $G$ in the plane, and let $T$ be a set of pairs of distinct vertices in $G$, called `terminal pairs'. Escaping a subset $X\subset T\cap Q$ from $Q$ means finding edge disjoint paths from the…

Many supervised machine learning methods are naturally cast as optimization problems. For prediction models which are linear in their parameters, this often leads to convex problems for which many mathematical guarantees exist. Models which…

We study theoretically the transfer of quantum information along bends in two-dimensional discrete lattices. Our analysis shows that the fidelity of the transfer decreases considerably, as a result of interactions in the neighbourhood of…

Take a closed monotone symplectic manifold containing a smooth anticanonical divisor. The quantum connection on its cohomology has singularities at zero and infinity (in the quantum parameter). At zero it has a regular singular point, by…
