We consider the structure of divergence-free vector measures on the plane. We show that such measures can be decomposed into measures induced by closed simple curves. More generally, we show that if the divergence of a planar vector-valued…

Let $\mathcal{F}=(F;+,\cdot,0,1,D)$ be a differentially closed field. We consider the question of definability of the derivation $D$ in reducts of $\mathcal{F}$ of the form $\mathcal{F}_{R}=(F;+,\cdot,0,1,P)_{P \in R}$ where $R$ is a…

We study the $m$-th Gauss map in the sense of F.~L.~Zak of a projective variety $X \subset \mathbb{P}^N$ over an algebraically closed field in any characteristic. For all integer $m$ with $n:=\dim(X) \leq m < N$, we show that the contact…

The famous Jacobian conjecture asks if a morphism $f:K[x,y]\to K[x,y]$ having an invertible Jacobian is invertible ($K$ is a characteristic zero field). We show that if one of the following three equivalent conditions is satisfied, then $f$…

Let $A$, $B$ be Banach $D$-algebras. The map $f:A\rightarrow B$ is called differentiable on the set $U\subset A$, if at every point $x\in U$ the increment of map $f$ can be represented as $$f(x+dx)-f(x) =\frac{d f(x)}{d x}\circ dx +o(dx)$$…

Let $R$ be a ring with involution containing a nontrivial symmetric idempotent element $e$. Let $\delta: R\rightarrow R$ be a mapping such that $\delta(ab)=\delta(b)a^{\ast}+b^{\ast}\delta(a)$ for all $a,b\in R$, we call $\delta$ a…

Let $X$ be an ordinary smooth curve defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. The absolute Frobenius induces a rational map $F$ on the moduli space $M_X$ of rank 2 vector bundles with fixed trivial determinant. If the…

We prove that an irreducible polynomial derivation in positive characteristic is a Jacobian derivation if and only if there exists an n-1-element p-basis of its ring of constants. In the case of two variables we characterize these…

Let $X$ be metrizable, $Y$ be perfectly normal and suppose that there exists a uniformly continuous surjection $T: C_{p}(X) \to C_{p}(Y)$ (resp., $T: C_{p}^*(X) \to C_{p}^*(Y)$), where $C_{p}(X)$ (resp., $C_{p}^*(X)$) denotes the space of…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g \geq 2 over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. Let M_X be the moduli space of semistable rank-2 vector bundles over X with trivial determinant. The relative Frobenius map…

This paper presents sufficient graph-theoretic conditions for injectivity of collections of differentiable functions on rectangular subsets of R^n. The results have implications for the possibility of multiple fixed points of maps and…

We consider the following conjecture: if X is a smooth projective variety over a field of characteristic zero, then there is a dense set of reductions X_s to positive characteristic such that the action of the Frobenius morphism on the top…

The nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem (NIEP) is to characterize the spectra of entrywise nonnegative matrices. A finite multiset of complex numbers is called realizable if it is the spectrum of an entrywise nonnegative matrix. Monov…

We obtain sufficient and necessary conditions (in terms of positive singular metrics on an associated line bundle) for a positive divisor $D$ on a projective algebraic variety $X$ to be attracting for a holomorphic map $f:X \mapsto X$.

Let $X$ be the moduli space of semistable rank 2 vector bundles over a smooth curve C of genus $g \ge 2$ and $\theta : X \to PH^0(L)^*$ be the map associated to the generalized theta divisor L on X. We prove that for C not hyperelliptic,…

In astrophysical magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and electrodynamics simulations, numerically enforcing the divB=0 constraint on the magnetic field has been difficult. We observe that for point-based discretization, as used in finite-difference…

The class of all countable differentially closed differential fields $K$ of characteristic $0$ was shown by Marker and the author to be "one jump away" from universal for spectra of structures: for every nontrivial countable structure…

We formulate explicitly the necessary and sufficient conditions for the local invertibility of a field transformation involving derivative terms. Our approach is to apply the method of characteristics of differential equations, by treating…
