We use probabilistic, topological and combinatorial methods to establish the following deviation inequality: For any normed space $X=(\mathbb R^n ,\|\cdot\| )$ there exists an invertible linear map $T:\mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R^n$ with \[…

Differential $p$-forms and $q$-vector fields with constant coefficients are studied. Differential $p$-forms of degrees $p=1,2,n-1,n$ with constant coefficients on a smooth $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ are characterized. In the contravariant…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, be a bounded connected $C^2$ domain. For any unit vector $\nu\in\mathbb{R}^n$, let $T_{\lambda}^{\nu}=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:x\cdot\nu=\lambda\}$,…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, let X=P^1\times A^N and let f be a rational endomorphism of X given by (x,y)--->(g(x), A(x)y), where g is a rational function, while A is an N-by-N matrix with entries in k(x). We…

Invertible compositions of one-dimensional maps are studied which are assumed to include maps with non-positive Schwarzian derivative and others whose sum of distortions is bounded. If the assumptions of the Koebe principle hold, we show…

Let $X$ be the special fiber of a unitary Shimura variety of hyperspecial level at a prime $p$ inert in the totally real field $F$. Let $Y\to X$ be the associated flag space. For every $L$-dominant weight $\lambda$, let…

Let $B_\theta $ be the family of rectangles in the plane $R^2$, having slope $\theta $ with the abscissa. We say a set of slopes $\Theta $ is $D$-set if there exists a function $f\in L(R^2)$, such that the basis $B_\theta $ differentiates…

Motivated by questions in mass-action kinetics, we introduce the notion of vertexical family of differential inclusions. Defined on open hypercubes, these families are characterized by particular good behavior under projection maps. The…

Given an ample line bundle $L$ on a geometrically reduced projective scheme defined over an arbitrary non-Archimedean field, we establish a differentiability property for the relative volume of two continuous metrics on the Berkovich…

A Moebius system is an ergodic fibred system $(B,T)$ (see \citer5) defined on an interval $B=[a,b]$ with partition $(J_k),k\in I,#I\geq 2$ such that $Tx=\frac{c_k+d_kx}{a_k+b_kx}$, $x\in J_k$ and $T|_{J_k}$ is a bijective map from $J_k$…

Two vertices $a$ and $b$ in a graph $X$ are cospectral if the vertex-deleted subgraphs $X\setminus a$ and $X\setminus b$ have the same characteristic polynomial. In this paper we investigate a strengthening of this relation on vertices,…

A persistence module with $m$ discrete parameters is a diagram of vector spaces indexed by the poset $\mathbb{N}^m$. If we are only interested in the large scale behavior of such a diagram, then we can consider two diagrams equivalent if…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p >0. Let $m \in \N$, (m,p)=1. We study $\fp$-vector spaces of logarithmic differential forms on the projective line such that each non zero form has a unique zero at $\infty$ of…

Sommese has conjectured a classification of smooth projective varieties X containing, as an ample divisor, a P^d-bundle Y over a smooth variety Z. This conjecture is known if d>1, if dim(X)<5, or if Z admits a finite morphism to an Abelian…

We give a counterexample to a conjecture of D.H. Gottlieb and prove a strengthened version of it. The conjecture says that a map from a finite CW-complex X to an aspherical CW-complex Y with non-zero Euler characteristic can have…

Given an Axiom A attractor for a $C^{1+\alpha}$ flow ($\alpha>0$), we construct a countable Markov extension with exponential return times in such a way that the inducing set is a smoothly embedded unstable disk. This avoids technical…

Our basic element is a $C^1$ mapping $f:X\to Y$, with $X,Y$ Banach spaces, and with derivative everywhere invertible. So $f$ is a local diffeomorphism at every point. The aim of this paper is to find a sufficient condition for $f$ to be…

We consider a family of vector fields defined in some bounded domain of R^p, and we assume that they satisfy Hormander's rank condition of some step r, and that their coefficients have r-1 continuous derivatives. We extend to this nonsmooth…

Let $K$ be a CM field and $K^+$ be the maximal totally real subfield of $K$. Assume that the primes above $p$ in $K^+$ split in $K$. Let $S$ be a set containing exactly half of the prime ideals in $K$ above $p$. We show, assuming Leopoldt's…

We prove a uniform version of the Dynamical Mordell-Lang Conjecture for \'etale maps; also, we obtain a gap result for the growth rate of heights of points in an orbit along an arbitrary endomorphism of a quasiprojective variety defined…
