We obtain a new bound for the number of solutions to polynomial equations in cosets of multiplicative subgroups in finite fields, which generalises previous results of P. Corvaja and U. Zannier (2013). We also obtain a conditional…

We study an extension to the uniqueness conjecture for Markov numbers. For any three positive integers $m\geq a$ and $m\geq b$ satisfying $a^2+b^2+m^2=3abm$, this conjecture states that the triple $(a,m,b)$ is uniquely determined by the…

By means of elementary conditions on coefficients, we isolate a large class of Fermat-like Diophantine equations that are not partition regular, the simplest examples being $x^n+y^m=z^k$ with $k\notin\{n,m\}$.

Building on previous work of Di Nasso and Luperi Baglini, we provide general necessary conditions for a Diophantine equation to be partition regular. These conditions are inspired by Rado's characterization of partition regular linear…

Markov matrices have an important role in the filed of stochastic processes. In this paper, we will show and prove a series of conclusions on Markov matrices and transformations rather than pay attention to stochastic processes although…

It is known that all degenerations of the complex projective plane into a surface with only quotient singularities are controlled by the positive integer solutions $(a,b,c)$ of the Markov equation $$x^2+y^2+z^2=3xyz.$$ It turns out that…

An old question in Ramsey theory asks whether any finite coloring of the natural numbers admits a monochromatic pair $\{x+y,xy\}$. We answer this question affirmatively in a strong sense by exhibiting a large new class of non-linear…

We give an explicit geometric description of the $\times2,\times3$ system, and use his to study a uniform family of Markov partitions related to those of Wilson and Abramov. The behaviour of these partitions is stable across expansive cones…

We show that the complexity of the Markov bases of multidimensional tables stabilizes eventually if a single table dimension is allowed to vary. In particular, if this table dimension is beyond a computable bound, the Markov bases consist…

We address partition regularity problems for homogeneous quadratic equations. A consequence of our main results is that, under natural conditions on the coefficients $a,b,c$, for any finite coloring of the positive integers, there exists a…

Markov combination is an operation that takes two statistical models and produces a third whose marginal distributions include those of the original models. Building upon and extending existing work in the Gaussian case, we develop Markov…

We prove that every unconditionally closed subset of a free group is algebraic, thereby answering affirmatively a 76 years old problem of Markov for free groups. In modern terminology, this means that Markov and Zariski topologies coincide…

A triple (a, b, c) of positive integers is called a Markoff triple iff it satisfies the Diophantine equation a2+b2+c2=abc . Recasting the Markoff tree, whose vertices are Markoff triples, in the framework of integral upper triangular 3x3…

We consider systems of $n$ diagonal equations in $k$th powers. Our main result shows that if the coefficient matrix of such a system is sufficiently non-singular, then the system is partition regular if and only if it satisfies Rado's…

By addressing a long-standing open problem, listed in a highly regarded collection of open questions in the field and described as a "worthwhile research project", this note extends Markov's theorem (Markoff, Math. Ann., 27:177-182, 1886)…

A finite-state Markov chain is introduced in the noise terms of the three-dimensional stochastic Navier-Stokes equations in order to allow for transitions between two types of multiplicative noises. We call such systems as stochastic…
