In this paper, we develop two fully nonconforming (both H(grad curl)-nonconforming and H(curl)-nonconforming) finite elements on cubical meshes which can fit into the Stokes complex. The newly proposed elements have 24 and 36 degrees of…

The note shows how $G^k$ (geometrically continuous surface) constructions yield $C^k$ iso-geometric elements also at irregular quad mesh points where three or more than four elements come together.

We introduce bivariate $C^1$ piecewise quintic finite element spaces for curved domains enclosed by piecewise conics satisfying homogeneous boundary conditions, construct local bases for them using Bernstein-B\'ezier techniques, and…

Let $G:= (C^*)^k\times SL_2(C)$ act linearly on a vector space or its projectivisation. We obtain an effective criterion to detect whether a number of orbits in an orbit-closure is finite or not.

We investigate the homogeneous symmetric Macdonald polynomials $P_\lambda(\X;q,t)$ for the specialization $t=q^k$. We show an identity relying the polynomials $P_\lambda(\X;q,q^k)$ and $P_\lambda(\frac{1-q}{1-q^k}\X;q,q^k)$. As a…

Given $\{P_n \}$ a sequence of monic orthogonal polynomials, we analyze their linear combinations $\{Q_n \}$with constant coefficients and fixed length $k+1$. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the orthogonality of the monic…

We study a generalized class of weighted $k$-regular partitions defined by \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} c_{k, r_1, r_2}(n) q^n = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(1 - q^{nk})^{r_1}}{(1 - q^n)^{r_2}}, \] which extends the classical $k$-regular partition…

We consider several families of combinatorial polytopes associated with the following NP-complete problems: maximum cut, Boolean quadratic programming, quadratic linear ordering, quadratic assignment, set partition, set packing, stable set,…

We expand the Chebyshev polynomials and some of its linear combination in linear combinations of the q-Hermite, the Rogers (q-utraspherical) and the Al-Salam--Chihara polynomials and vice versa. We use these expansions to obtain expansions…

We investigate a family of Diophantine polynomial equations which involve continuant functions. In particular, given a polynomial $P(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, we consider the equation $P(K_n(x_1,\ldots, x_n)) =…

We present a family of high-order finite element approximation spaces on a pyramid, and associated unisolvent degrees of freedom. These spaces consist of rational basis functions. We establish conforming, exactness and polynomial…

The purpose of the present paper is to develop $C^1$ Virtual Elements in three dimensions for linear elliptic fourth order problems, motivated by the difficulties that standard conforming Finite Elements encounter in this framework. We…

We present a new type of triangular $C^1$ finite elements developed for the plane strain crack problems within the simplified strain gradient elasticity (SGE). The finite element space contains a conventional fifth-degree polynomial…

Polynomial functions on the group of units Q_n of the ring Z_{2^n} are considered. A finite set of reduced polynomials RP_n in Z[x] that induces the polynomial functions on Q_n is determined. Each polynomial function on Q_n is induced by a…

The principal aim of this work is to provide a family of unisolvent and minimal physical degrees of freedom, called weights, for N\'ed\'elec second family of finite elements. Such elements are thought of as differential forms $…

It is well-known that it is comparatively difficult to design nonconforming finite elements on quadrilateral meshes by using Gauss-Legendre points on each edge of triangulations. One reason lies in that these degrees of freedom associated…

The tensor product of two differential forms of degree $p$ and $q$ is a multilinear form that is alternating in its first $p$ arguments and alternating in its last $q$ arguments. These forms, which are known as double forms or…

We are interested in attracting sets of $\mathbb{P}^k(\mathbb{C})$ which are of small topological degree and of codimension $1.$ We first show that there exists a large family of examples. Then we study their ergodic and pluripotential…

We construct a family of PL triangulations of the $d$-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb{R}P^d$ on $\Theta((\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})^{d+1})$ vertices for every $d\geq 1$. This improves a construction due to K\"{u}hnel on $2^{d+1}-1$…
