We consider the problem of smoothing algebraic cycles with rational coefficients on smooth projective complex varieties up to homological equivalence. We show that a solution to this problem would be incompatible with the validity of the…
A class of one-dimensional Fokker-Plank equations having a common stationary solution, which is a power function of the state of the process, was found. We prove that these equations also have generalized self-similar solutions which…
Transitive closure logic is a known extension of first-order logic obtained by introducing a transitive closure operator. While other extensions of first-order logic with inductive definitions are a priori parametrized by a set of inductive…
In this article, we define general normal forms for any logic that has propositional part and whose non-propositional connectives distribute over the finite disjunctions. We do not require the non-propositional connectives to be closed on…
We generalize the fractional packing framework of Garg and Koenemann to the case of linear fractional packing problems over polyhedral cones. More precisely, we provide approximation algorithms for problems of the form $\max\{c^T x : Ax…
We introduce a novel decidable fragment of first-order logic. The fragment is one-dimensional in the sense that quantification is limited to applications of blocks of existential (universal) quantifiers such that at most one variable…
The Hanoi Omega-Automata (HOA) format has established itself as the definitive standard for encoding $\omega$-regular automata in modern synthesis tools. While HOA is widely adopted due to its succinct symbolic representation, using Boolean…
We showed in part I (hep-th/9912092) that the Hopf algebra ${\cal H}$ of Feynman graphs in a given QFT is the algebra of coordinates on a complex infinite dimensional Lie group $G$ and that the renormalized theory is obtained from the…
We review a recent generalization of Normal Form Theory to systems (Hamiltonian ones or general ODEs) where the perturbing term is not periodic in one coordinate variable. The main difference with the standard case relies on the non…
Generalized Feller theory provides an important analog to Feller theory beyond locally compact state spaces. This is very useful for solutions of certain stochastic partial differential equations, Markovian lifts of fractional processes, or…
We present a model-theoretic property of finite structures, that can be seen to be a finitary analogue of the well-studied downward L\"owenheim-Skolem property from classical model theory. We call this property as the…
Let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n \geq 1}$ be the normalized Hecke eigenvalues of a given holomorphic cusp form $f$ of even weight $k$. We show under the assumption of the existence of Littlewood's type zero free region for $L(s, f, \chi)$, where…
A wide range of optimization problems can often be written in terms of generalized convex functions (GCFs). When this structure is present, it can convert certain nested bilevel objectives into single-level problems amenable to standard…
We extend the construction of so-called encapsulated global summation-by-parts operators to the general case of a mesh which is not boundary conforming. Owing to this development, energy stable discretizations of nonlinear and variable…
Let $g(x)$ be a fixed non-constant complex polynomial. It was conjectured by Schinzel that if $g(h(x))$ has boundedly many terms, then $h(x)\in \C[x]$ must also have boundedly many terms. Solving an older conjecture raised by R\'enyi and by…
To every Poisson algebraic variety X over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we canonically attach a right D-module M(X) on X. If X is affine, solutions of M(X) in the space of algebraic distributions on X are Poisson…
We establish the existence of a regular functional $M$-position, in the sense of Pisier, for geometric log-concave functions. This provides a functional analogue of Pisier's regular $M$-positions for convex bodies and yields uniform control…
Sandqvist's base-extension semantics for intuitionistic propositional logic defines a support relation parametrised by atomic bases, with validity identified as support in every base. Sandqvist's completeness theorem answers the global…
This paper introduces and investigates a regularity condition in the asymptotic sense for optimization problems whose objective functions are polynomial. Under this regularity condition, the normalization argument in asymptotic analysis…
We give a simplified proof of regularizing effects for first-order Hamilton-Jacobi Equations of the form $u\_t+H(x,t,Du)=0$ in $\R^N\times(0,+\infty)$ in the case where the idea is to first estimate $u\_t$. As a consequence, we have a…
