Given two graphs, a mapping between their edge-sets is cycle-continuous, if the preimage of every cycle is a cycle. The motivation for this notion is Jaeger's conjecture that for every bridgeless graph there is a cycle-continuous mapping to…

Two permutations of the natural numbers diverge if the absolute value of the difference of their elements in the same position goes to infinity. We show that there exists an infinite number of pairwise divergent permutations of the…

In vibro-impact mechanics, the division between an impact and a near miss is a zero-velocity grazing event. Grazing bifurcations of stable periodic motions often produce complicated attractors when grazing generates a square-root term in…

In a recent paper, Melbourne and Terhesiu [Operator renewal theory and mixing rates for dynamical systems with infinite measure, Invent. Math. 189 (2012), 61-110] obtained results on mixing and mixing rates for a large class of…

For graphs F and G an F-matching in G is a subgraph of G consisting of pairwise vertex disjoint copies of F. The number of F-matchings in G is denoted by s(F,G). We show that for every fixed positive integer m and every fixed tree F, the…

Target space duality is reconsidered from the viewpoint of quantization in a space with nontrivial topology. An algebra of operators for the toroidal bosonic string is defined and its representations are constructed. It is shown that there…

We consider the problem of "algebraic reconstruction" of linear combinations of shifts of several known signals $f_1,\ldots,f_k$ from the Fourier samples. Following \cite{Bat.Sar.Yom2}, for each $j=1,\ldots,k$ we choose sampling set $S_j$…

Let $A:[0,1]\to GL(n,\mathbb{C})$ be continuous with $A(0)=A(1)$, thus the winding number of $\det A$ is well-defined. If the winding number is not divisible by $n$, then the origin belongs to the numerical range of $A(\phi)$ for some $\phi…

We compute Fourier transforms of functions expressed as a ratio of one of the Jacobi elliptic functions divided by $\sinh(\pi x)$ or $\cosh(\pi x)$. In many cases, the resulting Fourier transform remains within the same class of functions.…

Several quantities related to the Zernike circle polynomials admit an expression as an infinite integral involving the product of two or three Bessel functions. In this paper these integrals are identified and evaluated explicitly for the…

We show how to extend Epstein's algebraic transversality principles for rational maps $f$ of ${\mathbb P}^1_{\mathbb C}$ to infinite forward invariant subsets of the Fatou set. The key, at least conceptually, to doing this is to have a…

We show that, for pairs of hyperbolic toral automorphisms on the $2$-torus, the points with dense forward orbits under one map and nondense forward orbits under the other is a dense, uncountable set. The pair of maps can be noncommuting. We…

The Fourier transform is considered as a Henstock--Kurzweil integral. Sufficient conditions are given for the existence of the Fourier transform and necessary and sufficient conditions are given for it to be continuous. The…

The ranges of a certain type of second order differential operator, on a Sobolev subspace of the Lebesgue space $L^2$ of the circle group, can be characterised by the vanishing of the Fourier coefficients at (generally) two integers that…

Any planar graph has a crossing-free straight-line drawing in the plane. A simultaneous geometric embedding of two n-vertex graphs is a straight-line drawing of both graphs on a common set of n points, such that the edges withing each…

The Topological Tverberg Theorem claims that any continuous map of a (q-1)(d+1)-simplex to \R^d identifies points from q disjoint faces. (This has been proved for affine maps, for d=1, and if q is a prime power, but not yet in general.) The…

We prove an important property of the binomial transform: it converts multiplication by the discrete variable into a certain difference operator. We also consider the case of dividing by the discrete variable. The properties presented here…

We give an example of a graphon such that there is no equivalent graphon with a degree function that is (weakly) increasing.

The question of whether or not any zero torsion linear map on a non abelian real Lie algebra g is necessarily an extension of some CR-structure is considered and answered in the negative. Two examples are provided, one in the negative and…

We study the simplest singular points of Fredholm maps of index zero between Banach spaces, i.e. when the kernel of the Frechet derivative of the map has dimension one. Even in this relatively simple case we have a rich variety of…
