For any positive integers $n=2k$ and $m$ such that $m\geq k$, in this paper we show the maximal number of bent components of any $(n,m)$-functions is equal to $2^{m}-2^{m-k}$, and for those attaining the equality, their algebraic degree is…

Here we study the approximation properties of a modified Goodman-Sharma operator recently considered by Acu and Agrawal in 2019. This operator is linear but not positive. It has the advantage of a higher order of approximation of functions…

Finding the maximal dimension of complete subvarieties of the moduli space of smooth $n$-pointed curves of genus $g$ is a long-standing open problem. Here we show that for $g\ge 3\cdot 2^{d-1}$, if the characteristic of the base field is…

We study critical metrics of higher-order curvature functionals on compact Riemannian $n$-manifolds $(M,g)$. For an integer $k$ with $2 \leq 2k \leq n$, let $R^k$ denote the $k$-th exterior power of the Riemann curvature tensor. We…

Let $n$ be an integer and $s$ be a real number such that $n > 2s \geq 2$. Inspired by the perturbation approach initiated by F. Hang and P. Yang (\textit{Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN}, 2020), we are interested in non-negative, smooth solution…

Let $(M^{2},g_{0})$ be a compact manifold with boundary, and let $g$ and $g_{0}$ be conformally related by $g=e^{2f}g_{0}$. We show that the inequality $$\nu_{1}(g)\geq\Big(\max_{x\in\partial M}e^{-f(x)}\Big)\nu_{1}(g_{0})$$ stated in…
