There exists an absolute constant $C$ with the following property. Let $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p$ be a set in the prime order finite field with $p$ elements. Suppose that $|A| > C p^{5/8}$. The set \[ (A \pm A)(A \pm A) = \{(a_1 \pm…

Let $k$ be a number field and $X$ a smooth integral affine variety equipped with a morphism $f : X \to A^1_k$ to the affine line. Assume that all fibres of $f$ are split, for instance that they are geometrically integral. Assume that the…

A rational expansion of the Fermi density operator is proposed. This approach allows to calculate efficiently physical properties of fermionic systems at finite temperatures without solving an eigenvalue problem. Using N evaluations of the…

For a given finitely generated multiplicative subgroup of the rationals which possibly contain negative numbers, we derive, subject to GRH, formulas for the densities of primes for which the index of the reduction group has a given value.…

Let p be a prime, and let f : Z/pZ -> R be a function with average value 0 and ||f||_A <= 1, where ||f||_A denotes the algebra norm (L^1 norm of the Fourier transform). Then f(x) is small for some x, specifically min_x |f(x)| is no more…

We derive a condition for converging a common evolutionary track for k-essence (a scalar field dark energy with non-canonical kinetic terms). For the Lagrangian density V(phi)W(X) with X=dot{phi}^2/2, we find tracker solutions with w_{phi}…

The degree of a CSP instance is the maximum number of times that any variable appears in the scopes of constraints. We consider the approximate counting problem for Boolean CSP with bounded-degree instances, for constraint languages…

It is known that, in general, an affine or Gabor AP-frame is an $L^2(\mathbb{R})$-frame and conversely. In part as a consequence of the Ergodic Theorem, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for an affine (wavelet) system…

We give several new criteria for a quasi-projective variety to be affine. In particular, we prove that an algebraic manifold $Y$ with dimension $n$ is affine if and only if $H^i(Y, \Omega^j_Y)=0$ for all $j\geq 0$, $i>0$ and $\kappa(D,…

The object of study is the group of units O^\ast(X) in the coordinate ring of a normal affine variety X over an algebraically closed field k. Methods of Galois cohomology are applied to those varieties that can be presented as a finite…

Given a family of varieties $X\to \mathbb{P}^n$ over a number field $k$, we determine conditions under which there is a Brauer-Manin obstruction to weak approximation for $100\%$ of the fibres which are everywhere locally soluble.

A certain real number, depending on two neighbouring sides of a quadrilateral and the diagonal meeting these two sides at their common point, is shown to be invariant under affinity. As an application we demonstrate a nice formula for the…

In the Equal Maximum Flow Problem (EMFP), we aim for a maximum flow where we require the same flow value on all edges in some given subsets of the edge set. In this paper, we study the closely related Almost Equal Maximum Flow Problems…

An almost cover of a finite set in the affine space is a collection of hyperplanes that together cover all points of the set except one. Using the polynomial method, we determine the minimum size of an almost cover of the vertex set of the…

This paper investigates stability properties of affine optimal control problems constrained by semilinear elliptic partial differential equations. This is done by studying the so called metric subregularity of the set-valued mapping…

This note is purely expository. A subset N of the plane is affine ambient homogeneous if for each x,y in N there exists an affine transformation taking x to y and N to itself. The result of D. Repovs, E. V. Scepin and the author on such…

Let K be a valued field of characteristic p>0 with non-p-divisible value group. We show that every finite embedding problem for K whose kernel is a p-group is properly solvable.

This paper focuses on the equidimensional decomposition of affine varieties defined by sparse polynomial systems. For generic systems with fixed supports, we give combinatorial conditions for the existence of positive dimensional components…

In this paper we will consider multi-peaks positive solutions for a class of slightly subcritical or slightly supercritical elliptic problems on an annulus with Dirichlet boundary conditions. By using the explicit form of the Green function…

Let $f$ be a semi-weighted-homogeneous polynomial having an isolated singularity at 0. Let $\alpha_{f,k}$ be the spectral numbers of $f$ at 0. By Malgrange and Varchenko there are non-negative integers $r_k$ such that the $\alpha_{f,k}-r_k$…
