Using the method of moving frames we analyze the algebra of differential invariants for surfaces in three-dimensional affine geometry. For elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic points, we show that if the algebra of differential invariants is…
We use a concise method to construct pseudo-automorphisms f_n of the first dynamical degree d_1(f_n) > 1 on the blowups of the projective n-space for all n > 1 and more generally on the blowups of products of projective spaces. These f_n,…
We consider point sets in the $m$-dimensional affine space $\mathbb{F}_q^m$ where each squared Euclidean distance of two points is a square in $\mathbb{F}_q$. It turns out that the situation in $\mathbb{F}_q^m$ is rather similar to the one…
It is classical that univariate algebraic functions satisfy linear differential equations with polynomial coefficients. Linear recurrences follow for the coefficients of their power series expansions. We show that the linear differential…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and let $A$ be a finitely generated $k$-algebra that is a domain whose Gelfand-Kirillov dimension is in $[2,3)$. We show that if $A$ has a nonzero locally nilpotent derivation…
The dynamical degree $\lambda(f)$ of a birational transformation $f$ measures the exponential growth rate of the degree of the formulae that define the $n$-th iterate of $f$. We study the set of all dynamical degrees of all birational…
We report on simulations of DT simplicial gravity for manifolds with the topology of the 4-disk. We find evidence for four phases in a two-dimensional parameter space. In two of these the boundary plays no dynamical role and the geometries…
We study the groups of automorphisms of rational algebraic surfaces that admit a relatively minimal pencil of curves of arithmetic genus one over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. In particular, we classify such…
A simple graph is called triangular if every edge of it belongs to a triangle. We conjecture that any graphical degree sequence all terms of which are greater than or equal to 4 has a triangular realisation, and establish this conjecture…
We establish new combinatorial transcendence criteria for continued fraction expansions. Let $\alpha = [0; a_1, a_2,...]$ be an algebraic number of degree at least three. One of our criteria implies that the sequence of partial quotients…
A simple graph is triangular if every edge is contained in a triangle. A sequence of integers is graphical if it is the degree sequence of a simple graph. Egan and Nikolayevsky recently conjectured that every graphical sequence whose terms…
Let F=(F_1,...,F_n):C^n --> C^n be any polynomial mapping. By multidegree of F, denoted mdeg F, we call the sequence of positive integers (deg F_1,...,F_n). In this paper we addres the following problem: for which sequence (d_1,...,d_n)…
A quadrangle in the Euclidean plane is called $n$-self-affine if it has a dissection into $n$ affine images of itself. All convex quadrangles are known to be $n$-self-affine for every $n \ge 5$. The only $2$-self-affine convex quadrangles…
We determine the automorphism group for a large class of affine quadric hypersurfaces over a field, viewed as affine algebraic varieties. In particular, we find that the group of real polynomial automorphisms of the n-sphere is just the…
Dynamical systems with quadratic or polynomial drift exhibit complex dynamics, yet compared to nonlinear systems in general form, are often easier to analyze, simulate, control, and learn. Results going back over a century have shown that…
The complete affine structures on abelian Lie algebras in small dimensions are well known. In this paper we are interested by the non complete case. In particular we classify all these structures in dimensions 2 and 3.
Let a set of nodes $\mathcal X$ in plain be $n$-independent, i.e., each node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ Suppose also that $|\mathcal X|= d(n,k-2)+2,$ where $d(n,k-2) = (n+1)+n+\cdots+(n-k+4)$ and $\ k\le n-1.$ In this paper…
We establish a theory of scalar Fourier coefficients for a class of non-holomorphic, automorphic forms on the quaternionic real Lie group $\mathrm{U}(2,n)$. By studying the theta lifts of holomorphic modular forms from $\mathrm{U}(1,1)$, we…
We study the problem of finding algebraically stable models for non-invertible holomorphic fixed point germs $f\colon (X,x_0)\to (X,x_0)$, where $X$ is a complex surface having $x_0$ as a normal singularity. We prove that as long as $x_0$…
In this paper, we describe the automorphisms of solvable Leibniz algebras with null-filiform nilradical. Moreover we describe the automorphisms of solvable Leibniz algebras with naturally graded non-Lie filiform nilradicals, whose the…
