We study countably piecewise continuous, piecewise monotone interval maps. We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the existence of a nondecreasing semiconjugacy to a map of constant slope in terms of the existence of an…

In this article we analyze the global diffeomorphism property of polynomial maps $F:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n$ by studying the properties of the Newton polytopes at infinity corresponding to the sum of squares polynomials…

This paper investigates instances of Sobolev embeddings characterized by local compactness at every point within their domain, except for a single point. We obtain the sharp conditions that distinguish compactness from non-compactness and…

In this article we give an explicit example of an inverse system with nonempty sets and onto bonding maps such that its inverse limit is empty.

Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be open and let $\mathcal{R}$ be a partial frame on $\Omega$, that is a set of $m$ linearly independent vector fields prescribed on $\Omega$ ($m\leq n$). We consider the issue of describing the set of all…

In this paper, plane polynomial systems having a singular point attracting all orbits in positive time are classified up to topological equivalence. This is done by assigning a combinatorial invariant to the system (a so-called "feasible…

Planar polynomial automorphisms are polynomial maps of the plane whose inverse is also a polynomial map. A map is reversible if it is conjugate to its inverse. Here we obtain a normal form for automorphisms that are reversible by an…

Let $F=(p,q):\mathbb R^2\to \mathbb R^2$ be a polynomial map with nowhere zero Jacobian determinant. A long-standing problem is to determine the largest integer $k$ such that the condition $\deg p\le k$ guarantees the global injectivity of…

The return map for planar vector fields with nilpotent linear part (having a center or a focus and under an assumption generically satisfied) is found as a convergent power series whose terms can be calculated iteratively. The first…

An irreducible element of a commutative ring is absolutely irreducible if no power of it has more than one (essentially different) factorization into irreducibles. In the case of the ring $\text{Int}(D)=\{f\in K[x]\mid f(D)\subseteq D\}$,…

Let $X\subset\Bbb C^n$ be an affine variety and $f:X\to\Bbb C^m$ be the restriction to $X$ of a polynomial map $\Bbb C^n\to\Bbb C^m$. In this paper, we construct an affine Whitney stratification of $X$. The set $K(f)$ of stratified…

Let $p$ be a polynomial in the non-commuting variables $(a,x)=(a_1,...,a_{g_a},x_1,...,x_{g_x})$. If $p$ is convex in the variables $x$, then $p$ has degree two in $x$ and moreover, $p$ has the form $p = L + \Lambda ^T \Lambda,$ where $L$…

It is shown that the CMV Laurent polynomials associated to the sieved Jacobi polynomials on the unit circle satisfy an eigenvalue equation with respect to a first order differential operator of Dunkl type. Using this result, the sieved…

For p=2 and tame level N=1 we prove that the map from the (Coleman-Mazur) Eigencurve to weight space satisfies the valuative criterion of properness. More informally, we show that the Eigencurve has no "holes"; given a punctured disc of…

The spectral properties of two special classes of Jacobi operators are studied. For the first class represented by the $2M$-dimensional real Jacobi matrices whose entries are symmetric with respect to the secondary diagonal, a new…

The two-dimensional Jacobian Conjecture says that a $\mathbb{C}$-algebra endomorphism $F:\mathbb{C}[x,y] \to \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ that has an invertible Jacobian is an automorphism. We show that if a $\mathbb{C}$-algebra endomorphism…

In the paper we study properties of the set of critical points for self-similar sets. We introduce simple condition that implies at most countably many critical values and we construct a self-similar set with uncountable set of critical…

Identifying the collection of scalars that represent a non-negative matrix's eigenvalues is known as the non-negative inverse eigenvalue problem (NIEP). Conditions for the existence of a non-negative matrix with a certain spectrum are…

We study $\textrm{Sym}(\infty)$-orbit closures of not necessarily closed points in the Zariski spectrum of the infinite polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[x_{ij}:\, i\in\mathbb{N},\,j\in[n]]$. Among others, we characterize invariant prime ideals…

Cubic invariants for two-dimensional Hamiltonian systems are investigated using the Jacobi geometrization procedure. This approach allows for a unified treatment of invariants at both fixed and arbitrary energy. In the geometric picture the…
