Let f be an irreducible polynomial of degree d>=3 with no fixed prime divisor. We derive an asymptotic formula for the number of primes p<x such that f(p) is (d-1)-free.

We consider the $\delta$-derivations of classical Lie superalgebras and prove that these superalgebras admit nonzero $\delta$-derivations only when $\delta = 0,1/2,1$. The structure of $1/2$-derivations for classical Lie superalgebras is…

An overlap-free (or $\beta$-free) word $w$ over a fixed alphabet $\Sigma$ is extremal if every word obtained from $w$ by inserting a single letter from $\Sigma$ at any position contains an overlap (or a factor of exponent at least $\beta$,…

For the equation (-\Delta u = | |x|-2 |^\alpha u^{p-1}), (1 < |x| < 3), we prove the existence of two solutions for (\alpha) large, and of two additional solutions when (p) is close to the critical Sobolev exponent (2^*=2N/(N-2)). A…

We prove that if $\alpha$ is a non-zero algebraic number of degree $d \geq 2$ which is not a root of unity, then $dh(\alpha)>(1/4) (\log(\log (d))/\log(d))^3.

Let $S$ be a Scott set, or even an $\omega$-model of $\mathsf{WWKL}$. Then for each $A\in S$, either there is $X \in S$ that is weakly 2-random relative to $A$, or there is $X\in S$ that is 1-generic relative to $A$. It follows that if…

The question of existence of a maximal subgroup in the multiplicative group D* of a division algebra D finite dimensional over its center F is investigated. We prove that if D* has no maximal subgroup, then deg(D) is not a power of 2,…

For any irrational real number xi, let lambda(xi) denote the supremum of all real numbers lambda such that, for each sufficiently large X, the inequalities |x_0| < X, |x_0*xi-x_1| < X^{-lambda} and |x_0*xi^2-x_2| < X^{-lambda} admit a…

The goal of this note is to provide an alternative proof of Theorem 1.1 (i) in [4], that is, if $n\geq 2$ and $M^{\alpha}$ is bounded on $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ for some $\alpha\in \mathbb{C}$ and $p\geq 2$, then we have \begin{align*}…

Let $P$ be a polytope defined by the system $A x \leq b$, where $A \in R^{m \times n}$, $b \in R^m$, and $\text{rank}(A) = n$. We give a short geometric proof of the following tight upper bound on the number of vertices of $P$: $$ n! \cdot…

Let $(S,L)$ be a general primitively polarized $K3$ surface of genus $g$. For every $0\leq \delta \leq g$ we consider the Severi variety parametrizing integral curves in $|L|$ with exactly $\delta$ nodes as singularities. We prove that its…

It is proved that every series-parallel digraph whose maximum vertex-degree is $\Delta$ admits an upward planar drawing with at most one bend per edge such that each edge segment has one of $\Delta$ distinct slopes. This is shown to be…

The (-\beta)-integers are natural generalisations of the \beta-integers, and thus of the integers, for negative real bases. They can be described by infinite words which are fixed points of anti-morphisms. We show that they are not…

We contribute to the study of $\aleph_1$-dense sets of reals, a mainstay in set theoretic research since Baumgartner's seminal work in the 70s. In particular, we show that it is consistent with $\textsf{MA}$ that there exists an…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a set of $(h-1)$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathrm{PG}(kh-1,q)$ with the property that every hyperplane contains at most $t$ elements of $\mathcal{X}$. We prove the upper bound $|\mathcal{X}| \leq (t-k+2)q^h + t$, and…

We study delta-points in Banach spaces $h_{\mathcal{A},p}$ generated by adequate families $\mathcal A$ where $1 \le p < \infty$. In the case the familiy $\mathcal A$ is regular and $p=1,$ these spaces are known as combinatorial Banach…

We improve some results of Pavlov and of Filatova, respectively, concerning a problem of Malychin by showing that every regular space X that satisfies Delta(X)>ext(X) is omega-resolvable. Here Delta(X), the dispersion character of X, is the…

In this paper we give new explicit formulas for Faltings' $\delta$-invariant in terms of integrals of theta functions, and we deduce an explicit lower bound for $\delta$ only in terms of the genus and an explicit upper bound for the…

Let $\Gamma\subset \overline{\mathbb Q}^{\times}$ be a finitely generated multiplicative group of algebraic numbers. Let $\delta, \beta\in\overline{\mathbb Q}^\times$ be algebraic numbers with $\beta$ irrational. In this paper, we prove…

In spite of the Lebesgue density theorem, there is a positive $\delta$ such that, for every non-trivial measurable set $S$ of real numbers, there is a point at which both the lower densities of $S$ and of the complement of $S$ are at least…
