By combining Tur\'an's proof of Fabry's gap theorem with a gap theorem of P. Sz\"usz we obtain a gap theorem which is more general then both these theorems.
A proof of Lagrange's and Jacobi's four-square theorem due to Hurwitz utilizes orders in a quaternion algebra over the rationals. Seeking a generalization of this technique to orders over number fields, we identify two key components: an…
In this note, we present a simple directed graph proof of Sharkovsky's theorem.
The concept of stability, originally introduced for polynomials, will be extended to apply to the class of entire functions. This generalization will be called Hurwitz stablility and the class of Hurwitz stable functions will serve as the…
This paper is withdrawn. The current main theorem can be proved by using a simple field theory. The main theorem is to placed by another theorem, shortly.
We give an elementary proof to Hasse theorem.
We present a proof of the Chevalley-Weil Theorem that is somewhat different from the proofs appearing in the literature and with somewhat weaker hypotheses, of purely topological type. We also provide a discussion of the assumptions, and an…
I present a proof of the quantum probability rule from decision-theoretic assumptions, in the context of the Everett interpretation. The basic ideas behind the proof are those presented in Deutsch's recent proof of the probability rule, but…
Sturm's Theorem is a fundamental 19th century result relating the number of real roots of a polynomial $f$ in an interval to the number of sign alternations in a sequence of polynomial division-like calculations. We provide a short direct…
In this paper, we aim to provide an accessible survey to various formulae for calculating single Hurwitz numbers. Single Hurwitz numbers count certain classes of meromorphic functions on complex algebraic curves and have a rich geometric…
We find some extensions of the Kraft-Russell Generic Equivalence Theorem and using it we obtain a simple proof of a result of Dubouloz and Kishimoto.
We present a simple extension of Lindeberg's argument for the Central Limit Theorem to get a general invariance result. We apply the technique to prove results from random matrix theory, spin glasses, and maxima of random fields.
In this paper we give a complete proof of the Brumer-Stark conjecture over $\mathbf{Z}$.
A central result of Sturm-Liouville theory (also called the Sturm-Hurwitz Theorem) states that if $\phi_k$ is a sequence of eigenfunctions of a second order differential operator on the interval $I \subset \mathbb{R}$, then any linear…
These informal notes, not intended for publication, provide an approach to the Borsuk--Ulam theorem via Stokes' theorem, in a similar spirit to Lima's proof of the Brouwer fixed point theorem. They are intended to be accessible to anyone…
A proof for a conjecture by Shadrin and Zvonkine, relating the entries of a matrix arising in the study of Hurwitz numbers to a certain sequence of rational numbers, is given. The main tools used are iteration matrices of formal power…
In this paper we prove a relative version of the classical Mumford-Newstead theorem for a family of smooth curves degenerating to a reducible curve with a simple node. We also prove a Torelli-type theorem by showing that certain moduli…
We define a new Hurwitz problem which is essentially a small core of the simple Hurwitz problem. The corresponding Hurwitz numbers have simpler formulae, satisfy effective recursion relations and determine the simple Hurwitz numbers. We…
A proof is given of Rosenthal's \(\ell_1\) theorem.
We give a concise proof of the fundamental theorem of smoothing theory in the special case when a smoothing exists.
