We study the dynamics of a finite chain of diffusively coupled Lorenz oscillators with periodic boundary conditions. Such rings possess infinitely many fixed states, some of which are observed to be stable. It is shown that there exists a…

We prove an upper bound on the total variation mixing time of a finite Markov chain in terms of the absolute spectral gap and the number of elements in the state space. Unlike results requiring reversibility or irreducibility, this bound is…

We prove an invariance principle for non-stationary random processes and establish a rate of convergence under a new type of mixing condition. The dependence is exponentially decaying in the gap between the past and the future and is…

We establish new results concerning endomorphisms of a finite chain if the cardinality of the image of such endomorphism is no more than some fixed number. The semiring of all such endomorphisms can be seen as a simplex whose vertices are…

We study here preference revision, considering both the monotonic case where the original preferences are preserved and the nonmonotonic case where the new preferences may override the original ones. We use a relational framework in which…

We establish that a mode-coupling approximation for the dynamics of multi-component systems obeying Smoluchowski dynamics preserves a subtle yet fundamental property: the matrices of partial density correlation functions are completely…

On a non-compact, smooth, connected, boundaryless, complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, one can define its ideal boundary by rays (or equivalently, Busemann functions). From the viewpoint of Mather theory, boundary elements could be…

We consider a quasi-variational inequality governed by a moving set. We employ the assumption that the movement of the set has a small Lipschitz constant. Under this requirement, we show that the quasi-variational inequality has a unique…

Odifreddi asked whether every non-irreducible many-one degree must contain an infinite antichain of one-one degrees. Positive answers are known for computably enumerable many-one degrees (Degtev) and, more recently, for many-one degrees…

We provide new infinitesimal characterizations for strong invariance of multifunctions in terms of Hamiltonian inequalities and tangent cones. In lieu of the standard local Lipschitzness assumption on the multifunction, we assume a new…

To explore the relation between properties of Loewner chains and properties of their driving functions, we study Loewner chains driven by functions $U$ of finite total variation. Under some appropriate conditions, we show existence of the…

In a recent paper [3], Bakalov and Milanov proved that the total descendant potential of a simple singularity satisfies the W-constraints, which come from the W-algebra of the lattice vertex algebra associated to the root lattice of this…

The union-closed sets conjecture (Frankl's conjecture) says that for any finite union-closed family of finite sets, other than the family consisting only of the empty set, there exists an element that belongs to at least half of the sets in…

Goodstein's principle is arguably the first purely number-theoretic statement known to be independent of Peano arithmetic. It involves sequences of natural numbers which at first appear to grow very quickly, but eventually decrease to zero.…

We prove the existence of a weakly dependent strictly stationary solution of the equation $ X_t=F(X_{t-1},X_{t-2},X_{t-3},...;\xi_t)$ called {\em chain with infinite memory}. Here the {\em innovations} $\xi_t$ constitute an independent and…

We investigate and quantify the distinction between rectifiable and purely unrectifiable 1-sets in the plane. That is, given that purely unrectifiable 1-sets always have null intersections with Lipschitz images, we ask whether these sets…

A hereditary property of quivers is a property preserved by restriction to any full subquiver. Similarly, a mutation-invariant property of quivers is a property preserved by mutation. Using forks, a class of quivers developed by M.…

We prove that for infinite rank-one transformations satisfying a property called "partial boundedness," the only commuting transformations are powers of the original transformation. This shows that a large class of infinite…

Let $R$ be an excellent Noetherian ring of prime characteristic. Consider an arbitrary nested pair of ideals (or more generally, a nested pair of submodules of a fixed finite module). We do \emph{not} assume that their quotient has finite…

Let M be a noncompact metric space in which every closed ball is compact, and let G be a semigroup of Lipschitz mappings of M. Denote by (Y_n)_{n\geq1} a sequence of independent G-valued, identically distributed random variables (r.v.'s),…
