We define a class of pre-ordered abelian groups that we call finite-by-Presburger groups, and prove that their theory is model-complete. We show that certain quotients of the multiplicative group of a local field of characteristic zero are…
We establish expansion properties for suitably generic polynomials of degree $d$ in $d+1$ variables over finite fields. In particular, we show that if $P\in\mathbb{F}_q[x_1,\ldots,x_{d+1}]$ is a polynomial of degree $d$ coming from an…
We show that the BF theory in any space-time dimension, when quantized in a certain linear covariant gauge, possesses a vector supersymmetry. The generator of the latter together with those of the BRS transformations and of the translations…
We introduce a new approach to representation theory of finite groups that uses some basic algebraic geometry and allows to do all the theory without using characters. With this approach, to any finite group $G$ we associate a finite number…
Using various results from extremal set theory (interpreted in the language of additive combinatorics), we prove an asyptotically sharp version of Freiman's theorem in F_2^n: if A in F_2^n is a set for which |A + A| <= K|A| then A is…
We prove an asymptotic formula as $x\to +\infty$ for the number of algebraic integers $\alpha$ belonging to a fixed CM number field and satisfying $\alpha\overline{\alpha}\leq x$. This problem is related to the height zeta function…
Calculations in field theory are usually accomplished by employing some variants of perturbation theory, for instance using loop expansions. These calculations result in asymptotic series in powers of small coupling parameters, which as a…
We show that QFT (as well as QM) is not a complete physical theory. We constructed a classical statistical model inducing quantum field averages. The phase space consists of square integrable functions, $f(\phi),$ of the classical bosonic…
We present sum representations for all characters of the unitary Virasoro minimal models. They can be viewed as fermionic companions of the Rocha-Caridi sum representations, the latter related to the (bosonic) Feigin-Fuchs-Felder…
The basic character theory of finite monoids over the complex numbers was developed in the sixties and seventies based on work of Munn, Ponizovsky, McAlister, Rhodes and Zalcstein. In particular, McAlister determined the space of functions…
We introduce a new boundary condition which renders the flux-insertion argument for the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis type theorems in two or higher dimensions free from the specific choice of system sizes. It also enables a formulation of the…
We dwell upon certain points concerning the meaning of quantum field theory, among these the problems with the perturbative approach, and the question raised by tHooft of the existence of the theory in a well defined mathematical sense, as…
This paper is a contribution to the study of extensions of arbitrary models of ZF (Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory), with no regard to countability or well-foundedness of the models involved. We present some new constructions of certain types…
Pseudo-variograms appear naturally in the context of multivariate Brown-Resnick processes, and are a useful tool for analysis and prediction of multivariate random fields. We give a necessary and sufficient criterion for a matrix-valued…
In 1952, Perron showed that quadratic residues in a field of prime order satisfy certain ad- ditive properties. This result has been generalized in different directions, and our contribution is to provide a further generalization concerning…
This paper investigates asymptotic properties of multifractal products of random fields. The obtained limit theorems provide sufficient conditions for the convergence of cumulative fields in the spaces $L_q.$ New results on the rate of…
We analyse in detail the quantization of a simple noncommutative model of spontaneous symmetry breaking in zero dimensions taking into account the noncommutative setting seriously. The connection to the counting argument of Feyman diagrams…
A finite semifield is a division algebra over a finite field where multiplication is not necessarily associative. We consider here the complexity of the multiplication in small semifields and finite field extensions. For this operation, the…
Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…
Let f be a polinomial with coefficients in a finite field F. Let $\Psi : F \to C^{\ast}$ be a non-trivial additive character. In this paper we give bounds for the exponential sums $\sum_{x\in F^n} \Psi (Tr_{F/F_p} (f(x)))$ in some cases…
