Given integers s,t, define a function phi_{s,t} on the space of all formal series expansions by phi_{s,t} (sum a_n x^n) = sum a_{sn+t} x^n. For each function phi_{s,t}, we determine the collection of all rational functions whose Taylor…

For a class of Kirchhoff functional, we first give a complete classification with respect to the exponent $p$ for its $L^2$-normalized critical points, and show that the minimizer of the functional, if exists, is unique up to translations.…

Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable closed surface and $f_0\in C^\infty(M)$ a function having only critical points of the $A_\mu$-types, $\mu\in\mathbb N$. Let ${\mathcal F}={\mathcal F}(f_0)$ be the set of functions $f\in C^\infty(M)$…

In this paper we study an index of a critical orbit, defined in terms of the degree for invariant strongly indefinite functionals. We establish a relationship of this index with the index of a critical point of the mapping restricted to the…

The method of Lagrange multipliers relates the critical points of a given function f to the critical points of an auxiliary function F. We establish a cohomological relationship between f and F and use it, in conjunction with the…

An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…

The \emph{Continuity Problem} is the question whether effective operators are continuous, where an effective operator $F$ is a function on a space of constructively given objects $x$, defined by mapping construction instructions for $x$ to…

Let $D^2 \subset C$ be a closed two-dimensional disk and $f:D^2 \to R$ be a continuous function such that a restriction of $f$ to $\partial D^2$ is a continuous function with a finite number of local extrema and $f$ has a finite number of…

We consider the problem of extending the integrals of motion of soliton equations to the space of all finite-gap solutions. We consider the critical points of these integrals on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces with marked points and…

Based on the concept and properties of $C^{*}$-algebras, the paper introduces a concept of $C_{*}$-class functions. Then by using these functions in $C^{*}$-algebra- valued modular metric spaces of moeini et al. [14], some common fixed…

We show the existence and uniqueness of solutions (either local or global for small data) for an equation arising in different aspects of surface growth. Following the work of Koch and Tataru we consider spaces critical with respect to…

We count the number of critical points of a modular form with real Fourier coefficients in a $\gamma$-translate of the standard fundamental domain $\mathcal{F}$ (with $\gamma\in \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$). Whereas by the valence formula…

Spatial aspects of computation are becoming increasingly relevant in Computer Science, especially in the field of collective adaptive systems and when dealing with systems distributed in physical space. Traditional formal verification…

We determine the relation between the local Euler obstruction $Eu_f$ of a holomorphic function $f$ and different generalizations of the Milnor number for functions on singular spaces.

If a complex analytic function, $f$, has a stratified isolated critical point, then it is known that the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of $f$ has a direct sum decomposition in terms of the normal Morse data to the strata. We use microlocal…

We prove that every reduced Stein space admits a holomorphic function without critical points. Furthermore, any closed discrete subset of such a space is the critical locus of a holomorphic function. We also show that for every complex…

The central purpose of this article is to establish new inverse and implicit function theorems for differentiable maps with isolated critical points. One of the key ingredients is a discovery of the fact that differentiable maps with…

The classical Gauss--Lucas theorem describes the location of the critical points of a polynomial. There is also a hyperbolic version, due to Walsh, in which the role of polynomials is played by finite Blaschke products on the unit disk. We…
