The cancellation problem asks whether $A[X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n] \cong B[Y_1,Y_2,\ldots,Y_n]$ implies $A \cong B$. Hamann introduced the class of steadfast rings as the rings for which a version of the cancellation problem considered by…
I illustrate the role of infrared renormalons in computing inclusive B-decay spectra. I explain the relation between the leading ambiguity in the definition of Sudakov form factor \sim \exp(N\Lambda/M) and that of the pole mass, and show…
We characterize bifurcation values of polynomial functions by using the theory of perverse sheaves and their vanishing cycles. In particular, by introducing a method to compute the jumps of the Euler characteristics with compact support of…
Given a positive operator-valued measure $\nu$ acting on the Borel sets of a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$, with outcomes in the algebra $\mathcal B(\mathcal H)$ of all bounded operators on a (possibly infinite-dimensional) Hilbert…
For a finite alphabet $A$ define by $d_1(x,y):=\limsup_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{2n+1}\#\{|i|\le n: x_i\neq y_i\}$ the Besicovitch pseudo-metric on $A^{\mathbb Z}$. It is well known that a closed subshift of $A^{\mathbb Z}$ has finite covering…
Let $Z$ be a unimodular real spherical space. We develop a theory of constant terms for tempered functions on $Z$ which parallels the work of Harish-Chandra. The constant terms $f_I$ of an eigenfunction $f$ are parametrized by subsets $I$…
We show that the algebraic K-theory of semi-valuation rings with stably coherent regular semi-fraction ring satisfies homotopy invariance. Moreover, we show that these rings are regular if their valuation is non-trivial. Thus they yield…
In the note we study the multipoint Seshadri constants of $\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^{2}_{\mathbb{C}}}(1)$ centered at singular loci of certain curve arrangements in the complex projective plane. Our first aim is to show that the values of…
We discuss positive Miyadera-Voigt type perturbations for bi-continuous semigroups on AL-spaces with an additional locally convex topology generated by additive seminorms. Our main example is the space of bounded Borel measures.
Valuations on the space of finite-valued convex functions on $\mathbb{C}^n$ that are continuous, dually epi-translation invariant, as well as $\mathrm{U}(n)$-invariant are completely classified. It is shown that the space of these…
Understanding the role that subgradients play in various second-order variational analysis constructions can help us uncover new properties of important classes of functions in variational analysis. Focusing mainly on the behavior of the…
New methods for computing parametric local $b$-functions are introduced for $\mu$-constant deformations of semi-weighted homogeneous singularities. The keys of the methods are comprehensive Gr\"obner systems in Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt…
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…
We present a functional calculus approach to the study of rates of decay in mean ergodic theorems for bounded strongly continuous operator semigroups. A central role is played by operators of the form $g(A)$, where $-A$ is the generator of…
We describe the relationship between the notions of $M$-regular sheaf and $GV$-sheaf in the case of abelian varieties. The former is a natural strengthening of the latter, and we provide an algebraic criterion characterizing it among the…
We compute partition functions of Chern-Simons type theories for cylindrical spacetimes $I \times \Sigma$, with $I$ an interval and $\dim \Sigma = 4l+2$, in the BV-BFV formalism (a refinement of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism adapted to…
A new criterion is given for a semigroup to be the semigroup of a valuation dominating an equicharacteristic local domain. The criterion is used to construct examples of well ordered subsemigroups of the positive rational numbers which are…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the polynomial ring over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. For arithmetic functions $\psi_{1}, \psi_{2}: \mathbb{F}_{q}[t]\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$, we establish that if a Bombieri-Vinogradov type equidistribution…
The category $_{A}\mathbb{S}_{A}$ of bisemimodules over a semialgebra $A,$ with the so called Takahashi's tensor product $-\boxtimes_{A}-,$ is semimonoidal but not monoidal. Although not a unit in $_{A}\mathbb{S}%_{A},$ the base semialgebra…
We show that the virial theorem provides a useful simple tool for approximating nonlinear problems. In particular we consider conservative nonlinear oscillators and a bifurcation problem. In the former case we obtain the same main result…
