We introduce an S.o.S hierarchy of lower bounds for a polynomial optimization problem whose constraint is expressed as a matrix polynomial semidefinite inequality. Our approach involves utilizing a penalty function framework to directly…

We continue the study initiated by H. S. Shapiro on Fischer decompositions of entire functions, showing that such decomposition exist in a weak sense (we do not prove uniqueness) under hypotheses regarding the order of the entire function…

We study the localization of the poles of the best Mobius approximations for locally univalent functions in the unit disk. Sharp geometric bounds for the pole function are established in terms of Pommerenke's linear invariant orders,…

It is proved that whenever a zero entropy dynamical system $(X,T)$ has only countably many ergodic measures and $\mu$ stands for the arithmetic M{\"o}bius function, then there exists a subset $A$ of integers depending only on the system, of…

The M\"obius invariant space $\mathcal{Q}_p$, $0<p<\infty$, consists of functions $f$ which are analytic in the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with $$ \|f\|_{\mathcal{Q}_p}=|f(0)|+\sup_{w\in \D} \left(\int_\D |f'(z)|^2(1-|\sigma_w(z)|^2)^p…

We study the orthogonal polynomials associated with the equilibrium measure, in logarithmic potential theory, living on the attractor of an Iterated Function System. We construct sequences of discrete measures, that converge weakly to the…

Let $\MP_d$ denote the space of polynomials $f: \C \to \C$ of degree $d\geq 2$, modulo conjugation by $\Aut(\C)$. Using properties of polynomial trees (as introduced in [DM, math.DS/0608759]), we show that if $f_n$ is a divergent sequence…

We prove a recent conjecture due to Cluckers and Veys on exponential sums modulo $p^m$ for $m \geq 2$ in the special case where the phase polynomial $f$ is sufficiently non-degenerate with respect to its Newton polyhedron at the origin. Our…

We prove certain conjecture holds true for a finite category which has M\"obius inversion. The conjecture states a relationship between the zeta function of a finite category and the Euler characteristic of a finite category.

We prove the modulo $p$ and modulo $p^2$ cases of Igusa's conjecture on exponential sums. This conjecture predicts specific uniform bounds in the homogeneous polynomial case of exponential sums modulo $p^m$ when $p$ and $m$ vary. We…

We prove new combinatorial results about polynomial configurations in large subsets of finite fields. Bergelson--Leibman--McCutcheon (2005) showed that for any polynomial $P(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ with $P(0) = 0$, if $A \subseteq…

We denote by $\mathcal{P}_q$ the vector space of functions from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ to itself, which can be represented as the space $\mathcal{P}_q := \mathbb{F}_q[x]/(x^q-x)$ of polynomial functions. We denote by $\mathcal{O}_n…

This paper introduces and develops M\"obius homology, a homology theory for representations of finite posets into abelian categories. Although the connection between poset topology and M\"obius functions is classical, we go further by…

We prove an effective stabilization result for the sheaf cohomology groups of line bundles on flag varieties parametrizing complete flags in k^n, as well as for the sheaf cohomology groups of polynomial functors applied to the cotangent…

We show that all $q$-semimultiplicative sequences are asymptotically orthogonal to the M\"obius function, thus proving the Sarnak conjecture for this class of sequences. This generalises analogous results for the sum-of-digits function and…

Let $P$ be a locally finite poset with the interval space $\Int(P)$, and $R$ a ring with identity. We shall introduce the M\"{o}bius conjugation $\mu^\ast$ sending each function $f:P\to R$ to an incidence function $\mu^\ast(f):\Int(P)\to R$…

Let $E$ be an arbitrary subset of the unit circle $T$ and let $f$ be a function defined on $E$. When there exist polynomials $P_n$ which are uniformly bounded by a number $M > 0$ on $T$ and converge (pointwise) to $f$ at each point of $E$?…

We consider the following basic problem: given an $n$-variate degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$ with real coefficients, compute a unit vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ that maximizes $|f(x)|$. Besides its fundamental nature, this problem…

We establish a Crapo complementation formula for the M\"obius function $\mu^X$ in a general decomposition space $X$ in terms of a convex subspace $K$ and its complement: $\mu^X \simeq \mu^{X\setminus K} + \mu^X*\zeta^K*\mu^X$. We work at…

We prove an analog of Perron-Frobenius theorem for multilinear forms with nonnegative coefficients, and more generally, for polynomial maps with nonnegative coefficients. We determine the geometric convergence rate of the power algorithm to…
