In this paper we give an explicit sufficient condition for the affine map $u_\lambda(x):=\lambda x$ to be the global energy minimizer of a general class of elastic stored-energy functionals $I(u)=\int_{\Omega} W(\nabla u)\,dx$ in three…
Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies a global inverse) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The birational…
Let $G$ a semisimple Lie group of non-compact type and let $\mathcal{X}_G$ be the Riemannian symmetric space associated to it. Suppose $\mathcal{X}_G$ has dimension $n$ and it has no factor isometric to either $\mathbb{H}^2$ or…
Let $F=(F_1, F_2, ... F_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of formal power series in $n$ variables of the form $F(z)=z+ O(|z|^2)$. It is known that there exists a unique formal differential operator $A=\sum_{i=1}^n a_i(z)\frac {\p}{\p z_i}$ such that…
We study the Jacobian conjecture for Keller maps $f:X_0:=\mathbf{A}^n\rightarrow Y_0:=\mathbf{A}^n$ in characteristic $0$ and attempt to prove it. We are quite aware of the fact that many people have tried to prove the Jacobian conjecture…
We show that every bordered Riemann surface, $M$, with smooth boundary $bM$ admits a proper holomorphic map $M\to \Omega$ into any bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb C^n$, $n>1$, extending to a smooth map $f:\overline…
A dichotomy for expansions of the real field is established: Either the set of integers is definable or every nonempty bounded nowhere dense definable subset of the real numbers has Minkowski dimension zero.
Let $\Omega \subset \rr^2$ be a bounded simply connected domain. We show that, for a fixed (every) $p\in (1,\fz),$ the divergence equation $\mathrm{div}\,\mathbf{v}=f$ is solvable in $W^{1,p}_0(\Omega)^2$ for every $f\in L^p_0(\Omega)$, if…
It is shown that the integrals of the Jacobi polynomials \begin{equation*}%\label{eq:Fn^J} \int_0^t (t-\theta)^\delta P_n^{(\alpha-\frac12,\beta-\frac12)}(\cos \theta) \left(\sin \tfrac{\theta}2\right)^{2 \alpha} \left(\cos…
In this article we analyze the global diffeomorphism property of polynomial maps $F:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n$ by studying the properties of the Newton polytopes at infinity corresponding to the sum of squares polynomials…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a set-valued mapping between finite dimensional spaces to be directionally open by relating this property with directional regularity, H\"older continuity of the inverse mapping,…
One of the most basic, longstanding open problems in the theory of dynamical systems is whether reachability is decidable for one-dimensional piecewise affine maps with two intervals. In this paper we prove that for injective maps, it is…
We consider the following question: Given a connected open domain $\Omega\subset R^n$, suppose $u,v:\Omega\rightarrow R^n$ with $\det(\nabla u)>0$, $\det(\nabla v)>0$ a.e. are such that $\nabla u^T(x)\nabla u(x)=\nabla v(x)^T \nabla v(x)$…
We consider a class of semidirect products $G = \mathbb{R}^n \rtimes H$, with $H$ a suitably chosen abelian matrix group. The choice of $H$ ensures that there is a wavelet inversion formula, and we are looking for criteria to decide under…
In this paper we consider the algebra of upper triangular matrices UT$_n(F)$, endowed with a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-grading (superalgebra) and equipped with a superinvolution. These structures naturally arise in the context of Lie and Jordan…
Let $X$ be a normed space that satisfies the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma (J-L lemma, in short) in the sense that for any integer $n$ and any $x_1,\ldots,x_n\in X$ there exists a linear mapping $L:X\to F$, where $F\subseteq X$ is a linear…
We construct an example of an iterated function system on the line, consisting of linear fractional transformations, such that two of the maps share a fixed points, but the dimension of the attractor equals the conformal dimension, so that…
Let $F:\Bbb C^n\to\Bbb C^n$ be a polynomial mapping with a non vanishing Jacobian. If the set $S_F$ of non-properness of $F$ is smooth, then $F$ is a surjective mapping. Moreover, the set $S_F$ can not be connected (this is the…
We show that if $E$ is a closed convex set in $\mathbb C^n$ $(n>1)$ contained in a closed halfspace $H$ such that $E\cap bH$ is nonempty and bounded, then the concave domain $\Omega = \mathbb C^n\setminus E$ contains images of proper…
Let $X$ be an $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold, $\Delta$ be a one-dimensional foliation on $X$, and $p: X \to X / \Delta$ be a quotient map. We will say that a leaf $\omega$ of $\Delta$ is special whenever the space of leaves $X / \Delta$ is…
