We discuss Hilbert-Kunz function from when it was originally defined to its recent developments. A brief history of Hilbert-Kunz theory is first recounted. Then we review several techniques involved in the study of Hilbert-Kunz functions by…

In this paper we develop a general concept of Lax operators on algebraic curves introduced in [1]. We observe that the space of Lax operators is closed with respect to their usual multiplication as matrix-valued functions. We construct the…

In this paper, the notion of universal enveloping algebra introduced in [A. Ardizzoni, \emph{A First Sight Towards Primitively Generated Connected Braided Bialgebras}, submitted. (arXiv:0805.3391v3)] is specialized to the case of braided…

This is an English translation of the following paper, published several years ago: Nikonorov Yu.G. On a characterization of critical points of the scalar curvature functional (Russian), Tr. Rubtsovsk. Ind. Inst., 7, 211-217 (2000), Zbl.…

This is an update on, and expansion of, our paper Open problems on $\beta\omega$ in the book Open Problems in Topology.

Any compact body in ${\mathbb R}^N$ with smooth boundary defines a two-valued function on the space of affine hyperplanes: the volumes of two parts into which these hyperplanes cut the body. This function is never algebraic if $N$ is even…

In this paper, we tackle unresolved inquiries by Ferreira et al. \cite{bruno} in their recent publication, ``Functional Identity on Division Algebras". We delve into the intricate behavior of additive functions on matrix algebras over…

In the 90's a collection of Plethystic operators were introduced in [3], [7] and [8] to solve some Representation Theoretical problems arising from the Theory of Macdonald polynomials. This collection was enriched in the research that led…

This is a facsimile of the circa 1990 unpublished manuscript with the same title. All the original text, figures and tables are included; although text has been reset in \TeX, the original hand-drawn figures have been redrawn digitally, and…

Bialgebras and Hopf (bi)modules are typical algebraic structures with several interacting operations. Their structural and homological study is therefore quite involved. We develop the machinery of braided systems, tailored for handling…

This manuscript is a comment about a published article in PRL 129, 053201 (2022) by J. Minguzzi et al.

This update to my article on Congruent numbers, elliptic curves, and the passage from the local to the global, which appeared in Resonance, December 2009, pp. 1183--1205 (https://www.ias.ac.in/describe/article/reso/014/12/1183-1205) and was…

We correct a gap in the proof of a basic theorem by Jakubowski (1986) on the Skorohod topology on the space of functions on [0,1] with values in a completely regular topological space.

The affine Hecke algebra $\dot H_n$ of type $A$ is often presented as a quotient of the braid algebra of $n$-braids in the annulus. This leads to diagrammatic representations in terms of braids in the annulus, subject to a quadratic…

In 1989 H.Karcher rewrote the theory of elliptic functions through an approach that is much more geometrical than analytical. Therewith he obtained an optimal control over the behaviour and image values of these functions, which allowed for…

In this article we give an example of a matrix version of the famous congruence for hypergeometric functions found by Dwork in 'p-adic cycles'.

Results of Koebe (1936), Schramm (1992), and Springborn (2005) yield realizations of $3$-polytopes with edges tangent to the unit sphere. Here we study the algebraic degrees of such realizations. This initiates the research on constrained…

In "On the homotopy theory of arrangements," published in 1986, the authors gave a comprehensive survey of the subject. This article updates and continues the earlier article, noting some key open problems.

This is an expanded version of one of the Lectures in memory of Lars Ahlfors in Haifa in 1996. Some mistakes are corrected and references added. It contains a survey of his work on meromorphic functions and related topics written in…
