We study N=2 superconformal theories on Euclidean and Lorentzian four-manifolds with a view toward applications to holography and localization. The conditions for supersymmetry are equivalent to a set of differential constraints including a…
We propose a proximal approach to deal with a class of convex variational problems involving nonlinear constraints. A large family of constraints, proven to be effective in the solution of inverse problems, can be expressed as the lower…
We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solutions which grow at most like the distance to the boundary to a power given by the natural scaling exponent of the equation; in other words,…
We define the degenerate two boundary affine Hecke-Clifford algebra $\mathcal{H}_d$, and show it admits a well-defined $\mathfrak{q}(n)$-linear action on the tensor space $M\otimes N\otimes V^{\otimes d}$, where $V$ is the natural module…
Let $(S, d, \rho)$ be the affine group $\mathrm{R}^n \ltimes \mathrm{R}^+$ endowed with the left-invariant Riemannian metric $d$ and the right Haar measure $\rho$, which is of exponential growth at infinity. In this paper, for any linear…
We consider a monotone submodular maximization problem whose constraint is described by a logic formula on a graph. Formally, we prove the following three `algorithmic metatheorems.' (1) If the constraint is specified by a monadic…
We develop a Helmholtz-like theorem for differential forms in Euclidean space $E_{n}$ using a uniqueness theorem similar to the one for vector fields. We then apply it to Riemannian manifolds, $R_{n}$, which, by virtue of the…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Fix integers $n$ and $b$ with $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq b\leq n-1.$ Let $T^d_k$ be the moduli space of hypersurfaces $[F]$ in $\mathbb{P}^n_k$ of degree $l$ whose singular locus contains a subscheme of…
Considering a 2D matrix of positive and negative numbers, how might one draw a rectangle within it whose contents sum higher than all other rectangles'? This fundamental problem, commonly known the maximum rectangle problem or subwindow…
In this work, we give upper bounds for $n$ on the title equation. Our results depend on assertions describing the precise exponents of $2$ and $3$ appearing in the prime factorization of $T_{k}(x)=(x+1)^{k}+(x+2)^{k}+...+(2x)^{k}$. Further,…
Let $g(k)$ be the maximum size of a planar set that determines at most $k$ distances. We prove $$\frac{\pi}{3\,C(\Lambda_{hex})}\ k\sqrt{\log k} (1+o(1)) \le g(k) \le C k\log k,$$ so $g(k) \asymp k\sqrt{\log k}$ with an explicit constant…
A set of $k$ orthonormal bases of $\mathbb C^d$ is called mutually unbiased if $|\langle e,f\rangle |^2 = 1/d$ whenever $e$ and $f$ are basis vectors in distinct bases. A natural question is for which pairs $(d,k)$ there exist~$k$ mutually…
One of the aims of this paper is to solve an open problem of Lovasz about relations between graph spectra and cut-distance. The paper starts with several inequalities between two versions of the cut-norm and the two largest singular values…

The diameter $k$-clustering problem is the problem of partitioning a finite subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ into $k$ subsets called clusters such that the maximum diameter of the clusters is minimized. One early clustering algorithm that computes…
This paper studies integer solutions to the Diophantine equation A+B=C in which none of A, B, C have a large prime factor. We set H(A, B,C) = max(|A|, |B|, |C|), and consider primitive solutions (gcd}(A, B, C)=1) having no prime factor p…
In this paper, we deal with an elliptic problem with the Dirichlet boundary condition. We operate in Sobolev spaces and the main analytic tool we use is the Lax-Milgram lemma. First, we present the variational approach of the problem which…
