The moduli space $\bar{M}_{0,n}$ of stable rational n-pointed curves has divisorial boundary with simple normal crossings. In this brief note I observe that the dual complex is a flag complex; that is, a collection of irreducible boundary…
We investigate the well-posedness of $\alpha$-SQG equations in the half-plane, where $\alpha=0$ and $\alpha=1$ correspond to the 2D Euler and SQG equations respectively. For $0<\alpha \le 1/2$, we prove local well-posedness in certain…
We present a proof of the sufficiency of Rado's condition for the partition regularity of linear Diophantine equations that avoids any use of van der Waerden's theorem. The proof is based on fundamental properties that are common knowledge…
We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solutions which grow at most like the distance to the boundary to a power given by the natural scaling exponent of the equation; in other words,…
A non-Abelian Born-Infeld theory is presented. The square root structure that characterizes the Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action does not appear. The procedure is based on an Abelian theory proposed by Erwin Schr\"{o}dinger that, as he…
In this paper we characterize the non-singular Hermitian variety ${\mathcal H}(6,q^2)$ of $\mathrm{PG}(6, q^2)$, $q\neq2$ among the irreducible hypersurfaces of degree $q+1$ in $\mathrm{PG}(6, q^2)$ not containing solids by the number of…
Let (X, D) be a projective log canonical pair. We show that for any natural number p, the sheaf (Omega_X^p(log D))^** of reflexive logarithmic p-forms does not contain a Weil divisorial subsheaf whose Kodaira-Iitaka dimension exceeds p.…
We show that fermionic dipoles in a two-layer geometry form Cooper pairs with both singlet and triplet components, when they are tilted with respect to the normal of the planes. The mixed parity pairing arises because the interaction…
I prove the existence of vacuum $S^{1}$ symmetric Einsteinian, unpolarized, space times which are complete in the direction of the expansion, for small initial data, without supposing that the $S^{1}$ orbits are orthogonal to the…
Given a probability measure $\mu$ with infinite support on the unit circle $\partial\mathbb{D}=\{z:|z|=1\}$, we consider a sequence of paraorthogonal polynomials $\h_n(z,\lambda)$ vanishing at $z=\lambda$ where $\lambda \in \T$ is fixed. We…
We provide sharp forms of $k$-plane transform inequalities on the $d$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$ and the $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$. In particular, we prove that extremizers do not exist for $\mathbb{H}^d$. This…
We look at the Equivalence Theorem as a statement about the absence of polynomial infrared divergences when $m_W \rightarrow 0$. We prove their absence in a truncated toy model and conjecture that, if they exist at all, they are due to…
We demonstrate that five-dimensional, asymptotically flat, stationary and biaxisymmetric, vacuum black holes with lens space $L(n, 1)$ topology, possessing the simplest rod structure, do not exist. In particular, we show that the general…
Let $\mathbb{R}^n$ be the n-dimensional Euclidean space with $O$ as the origin. Let $\wedge$ be a lattice of determinant $1$ such that there is a sphere $|X|<R$ which contains no point of $\wedge$ other than $O$ and has $n$ linearly…
We prove that the moduli space A_3(1,1,4) of polarized abelian threefolds with polarization of type (1,1,4) is unirational. By a result of Birkenhake and Lange this implies the unirationality of the isomorphic moduli space A_3(1,4,4). The…
Static, cylindrically symmetric solutions to nonlinear scalar-Einstein equations are considered. Regularity conditions on the symmetry axis and flat or string asymptotic conditions are formulated in order to select soliton-like solutions.…
We introduce a weighted Sobolev space theory for the non-local elliptic equation $$ \Delta^{\alpha/2}u=f, \quad x\in \mathcal{O}\,; \quad r_{\overline{\mathcal{O}}^c}u=g $$ as well as for the non-local parabolic equation $$…
We study the time-dependent solitonic gauge fields in scalar QED, in which a charged particle has the energy of reflectionless P\"{o}sch-Teller potential with natural quantum numbers. Solving the quantum master equation for quadratic…
A single parameter cubic composite test for odd positive integers is given which relies on the discriminant always being a square integer. This test has no known counterexample despite extensive verifications. As well as a comparison with…
A locally complete family of projective symplectic 4-folds is provided by natural double covers of Eisenbud-Popescu-Walter (EPW) sextic hypersurfaces in projective 5-space. The dual of an EPW sextic is another EPW sextic, thus to a double…
