We strengthen the standard bifurcation theorems for saddle-node, transcritical, pitchfork, and period-doubling bifurcations of maps. Our new formulation involves adding one or two extra terms to the standard truncated normal forms with…
We present the proof of the HRR theorem for a generic complex compact manifold by evaluating the functional integral for the Witten index of the appropriate supersymmetric quantum mechanical system.
A generalization of L{\"u}roth's theorem expresses that every transcendence degree 1 subfield of the rational function field is a simple extension. In this note we show that a classical proof of this theorem also holds to prove this…
In this paper, we prove a Maschke type theorem for the category of relative Hom-Hopf modules. In fact, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the functor that forgets the $(H, \a)$-coaction to be separable. This leads to a…
We study the geometry of the space of rational curves on smooth complete intersections of low degree, which pass through a given set of points on the variety. The argument uses spreading out to a finite field, together with an adaptation to…
Let $K$ be a number field or a function field of characteristic 0. If $K$ is a number field, assume the $abc$-conjecture for $K$. We prove a variant of Zsigmondy's theorem for ramified primes in preimage fields of rational functions in…
As a first application of a very old theorem, known as Herschel's theorem, we provide direct elementary proofs of several explicit expressions for some numbers and polynomials that are known in combinatorics. The second application deals…
The classical concept of Fenchel conjugation is tailored to extended real-valued functions defined on linear spaces. In this paper we generalize this concept to functions defined on arbitrary sets that do not necessarily bear any structure…
The main aim of this note is to show that the formalism of multi-time equations in quantum mechanics meant to represent a manifestly Lorentz-invariant theory suffers from at least three imperfections: (1) It does not cover those physical…
We prove that the orbit closure of the determinant is not normal. A similar result is obtained for the orbit closure of the permanent multiplied by a power of a linear form.
By analogy with work of Hitchin on integrable systems, we construct natural relaxations of several kinds of moduli spaces of difference equations, with special attention to a particular class of difference equations on an elliptic curve…
The definition of a non-trivial space of generalized functions of a complex variable allowing to consider derivatives of continuous functions is a non-obvious task, e.g. because of Morera theorem, because distributional Cauchy-Riemann…
In this overview article we present a formalism suitable for constructing models of QFT's on curved spacetimes. The leading principle is the emphasis on local properties. It turns out that this requires a reformulation of the standard QFT…
Although the characterization of ring derivations has an extensive literature, up to now, all of the characterizations have had the following form: additivity and another property imply that the function in question is a derivation. The aim…
We prove that under suitable graded and local hypothesis, a formally unramified algebra over a field must be reduced. We detail examples, including one due to Gabber, to show that it is not possible to generalize these results further.
In this paper we aim to generalize results obtained in the framework of fractional calculus by the way of reformulating them in terms of operator theory. In its own turn, the achieved generalization allows us to spread the obtained…
We prove a generalisation of Elkies' theorem to nonunimodular definite forms (and lattices). Combined with inequalities of Froyshov and of Ozsvath and Szabo, this gives a simple test of whether a rational homology 3-sphere may bound a…
We give an elementary proof of a recent result by Fishman, Kleinbock, Merrill and Simmons about rational points on quadratic surfaces.
Non-Hermitian singularities are ubiquitous in non-conservative open systems. These singularities are often points of measure zero in the eigenspectrum of the system which make them difficult to access without careful engineering. Despite…
We present a new perspective on the weak approximation conjecture of Hassett and Tschinkel: formal sections of a rationally connected fibration over a curve can be approximated to arbitrary order by regular sections. The new approach…
