Rigidity results are obtained for Riemannian $d$-manifolds with $\sec \geqslant 1$ and spherical rank at least $d-2>0$. Conjecturally, all such manifolds are locally isometric to a round sphere or complex projective space with the…

Let P^n denote the n-dimensional projective space defined over the algebraic closure of a finite field F_q, let V contained P^n be a complete intersection defined over F_q of dimension r and singular locus of dimension at most s, and let…

Random reversible and quantum circuits form random walks on the alternating group $\mathrm{Alt}(2^n)$ and unitary group $\mathrm{SU}(2^n)$, respectively. Known bounds on the spectral gap for the $t$-th moment of these random walks have…

We prove that for $k\ge 1$, all coefficients in the expansion of the series $$\sum_{n\ge 0} \frac{(q^{2n+2}, q^{2n+2k}; q^2)_\infty}{(q^{2n+1};q^2)_\infty^2} q^{2n}$$ are positive, by $q$-hypergeometric means. This confirms a recent…

Given a pair of distinct unitary cuspidal automorphic representations for GL(n) over a number field, let S denote the set of finite places at which the automorphic representations are unramified and their associated Hecke eigenvalues…

We prove that a smooth projective variety of dimension n is isomorphic to projective n-space iff the canonical class is -(n+1)-times an ample divisor. In characteristic zero this was proved by Kobayashi-Ochiai. We also extend the second…

We prove the existence of Sasakian metrics with positive Ricci curvature on certain highly connected odd dimensional manifolds. In particular, we show that manifolds homeomorphic to the 2k-fold connected sum of S^{2n-1} x S^{2n} admit…

First, an example of a 2-dependent group without a minimal subgroup of bounded index is given. Second, all infinite n-dependent fields are shown to be Artin-Schreier closed. Furthermore, the theory of any non separably closed PAC field has…

We show that Jacobian algebras arising from a sphere with $n$-punctures, with $n\geq5$, are finite dimensional algebras. We consider also a family of cyclically oriented quivers and we prove that, for any primitive potential, the associated…

We prove that the Hecke--Maass eigenforms for a compact arithmetic triangle group have a growing number of nodal domains as the eigenvalue tends to $+\infty$. More generally the same is proved for eigenfunctions on negatively curved…

In this note we show that if a continuous-time, nonlinear, time-invariant, finite-dimensional system evolves on a compact subset of Rn and if the Jacobian of the vector field is Hurwitz at each point of the compact set, then there is a…

We prove an affine analog of Scharlau's reduction theorem for spherical buildings. To be a bit more precise let $X$ be a euclidean building with spherical building $\partial X$ at infinity. Then there exists a euclidean building $\bar X$…

Given a closed Riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1},g)$, $n+1 \geq 3$ we prove the compactness of the space of singular, minimal hypersurfaces in $N$ whose volumes are uniformly bounded from above and the $p$-th Jacobi eigenvalue $\lambda_p$'s are…

We prove that there are infinitely many pairs of homeomorphic non-diffeomorphic smooth 4-manifolds, such that in each pair one manifold admits an Einstein metric and the other does not. We also show that there are closed 4-manifolds with…

The principal result of this note is the existence of a complex topological orientation for Atiyah-Segal $\mathbb{T}$-equivariant K-theory which indexes the projective space of lines in complex (n+1)-space by the Fourier expansion $1 + q +…

We show that for n dimensional manifolds whose the Ricci curvature is greater or equal to n-1 and for k in {1,...,n+1}, the k-th eigenvalue for the Laplacian is close to n if and only if the manifold contains a subset which is…

In this paper, we consider the following overdetermined eigenvalue problem on an unbounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N+1}$ with $N\geq1$ \begin{equation} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u=\lambda u\,\, &\text{in}\,\, \Omega,\\ u=0…

Dong and Wang in [Theor. Comput. Sci. 771 (2019) 93--98] conjectured that the resulting graph of the $n$-dimensional folded hypercube $FQ_n$ by deleting any perfect matching is isomorphic to the hypercube $Q_n$. In this paper, we show that…

In this paper, by constructing some identities, we prove some $q$-analogues of some congruences. For example, for any odd integer $n>1$, we show that \begin{gather*} \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} \frac{(q^{-1};q^2)_k}{(q;q)_k} q^k \equiv (-1)^{(n+1)/2}…
