In this paper, we classify the possible group structures on the set of $R$-valued points of an abelian variety, where $R$ is any real closed field. We make use of a family of abelian varieties that, in effect, allows one to quantify over…

The goal of this paper is to explain how a simple but apparently new fact of linear algebra together with the cohomological interpretation of L-functions allows one to produce many examples of L-functions over function fields vanishing to…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian topological group. For locally bounded measurable functions $\varphi: G\to\Bbb {C}$ we discuss notions of spectra for $\varphi$ relative to subalgebras of $L^{1}(G)$. In particular we study polynomials…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple connected graph and $d_i$ be the degree of its $i$th vertex. In a recent paper [J. Math. Chem. 46 (2009) 1369-1376] the first geometric-arithmetic index of a graph $G$ was defined as $$GA_1=\sum_{ij\in E}\frac{2…

The goal of this note is to apply ideas from commutative algebra (a.k.a. affine algebraic geometry) to the question of constrained Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation. More precisely, we consider subalgebras $A \subset…

Let $G$ be a semiabelian variety and $C$ a curve in $G$ that is not contained in a proper algebraic subgroup of $G$. In this situation, conjectures of Pink and Zilber imply that there are at most finitely many points contained in the…

We consider some diophantine problems suggested by the analogy between multiplicative groups and powers of the modular curve in problems of "unlikely intersections." We prove a special case of the Zilber-Pink conjecture for curves.

A set of quasi-uniform random variables $X_1,...,X_n$ may be generated from a finite group $G$ and $n$ of its subgroups, with the corresponding entropic vector depending on the subgroup structure of $G$. It is known that the set of entropic…

We develop a differential theory for the polarity transform parallel to that for the Legendre transform, which is applicable when the functions studied are "geometric convex", namely convex, non-negative and vanish at the origin. This…

We prove the Zilber-Pink conjecture to the intersection of an irreducible Hodge generic algebraic subvariety $ V \subset \mathcal{A}_g$ with special subvarieties of all simple PEL types other than $\mathbb{Z}$, under the assumption of the…

In finite group theory, studying the prime graph of a group has been an important topic for almost the past half-century. Recently, prime graphs of solvable groups have been characterized in graph theoretical terms only. This now allows the…

In (arXiv:1004.4127) the concept of down-link from a (K_v, G)-design B to a (K_n, G')-design B' has been introduced. In the present paper the spectrum problems for G'= P4 are studied. General results on the existence of path-decompositions…

Using the direct relation between the Gegenbauer polynomials and the Ferrers function of the first kind, we compute interrelations between certain Jacobi polynomials, Meixner polynomials, and the Ferrers function of the first kind. We then…

We discuss a recent line of research investigating inverse theorems with respect to general k-wise correlations, and explain how such correlations arise in different contexts in mathematics. We outline some of the results that were…

We are discussing certain combinatorial and counting problems related to quadratic algebras. First we give examples which confirm the Anick conjecture on the minimal Hilbert series for algebras given by n generators and n(n-1)/2 relations…

This thesis deals with applications of experimental mathematics to a number of problems. The first problem is related to random graph statistics. We consider a certain class of Galton-Watson random trees and look at the total height…

We consider pseudo-involutions in the Riordan group where the generating function $g$ for the first column of a Riordan array satisfies a palindromic or near-palindromic functional equation. For those types of equations, we find, for very…

We say that a formal power series $\sum a_n z^n$ with rational coefficients is a 2-function if the numerator of the fraction $a_{n/p}-p^2 a_n$ is divisible by $p^2$ for every prime number $p$. One can prove that 2-functions with rational…

The present work aims to exploit the interplay between the algebraic properties of rings and the graph-theoretic structures of their associated graphs. We introduce commutatively closed graphs and investigate properties of commutatively…

We develop an approach to establish $1/\pi$-series from bimodular forms. Utilizing this approach, we obtain new families of $2$-variable $1/\pi$-series associated to Zagier's sporadic Apery-like sequences.
