It has been recently pointed out that a definition of the geometric entropy using the partition function in a conical space does not in general lead to a positive definite quantity. For a scalar field model with a non-minimal coupling we…

We prove that the formula giving the exact value of the irrationality exponent of regular continued fractions remains valid for semi-regular continued fractions satisfyiong certain conditions.

We explain in detail how to accelerate continued fractions (for constants as well as for functions) using the method used by R.~Ap\'ery in his proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$. We show in particular that this can be applied to a…

We study over a number field, the iterates of automorphisms of the affine space. More precisely, we are interested in the periodic and non-periodic points; for the former the questions are similar to the ones about torsion points on abelian…

We show that the chord-length distribution function $[\gamma"(r)]$ of any bounded polyhedron has an elementary algebraic form, the expression of which changes in the different subdomains of the $r$-range. In each of these, the $\gamma"(r)$…

In an attempt to characterize the distribution of forms and shapes of nodal domains in wave functions, we define a geometric parameter - the ratio $\rho$ between the area of a domain and its perimeter, measured in units of the wavelength…

Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with negative curvature, and let C_-, C_+ be two properly immersed closed convex subsets of M. We survey the asymptotic behaviour of the number of common perpendiculars of length at most s from C_- to…

For a fixed irrational $\theta > 0$ with a prescribed irrationality measure function, we study the correlation $\int_1^X \Delta(x) \Delta(\theta x) dx$, where $\Delta$ is the Dirichlet error term in the divisor problem. When $\theta$ has a…

For different values of $\gamma \geq 0$, analysis of the end behavior of the sequence $a_n = \cos (n)^{n^\gamma}$ yields a strong connection to the irrationality measure of $\pi$. We show that if $\limsup |\cos n|^{n^2} \neq 1$, then the…

In this paper we build a geometric model for the renormalisation of irrationally indifferent fixed points. The geometric model incorporates the fine arithmetic properties of the rotation number at the fixed point. Using this model for the…

Let $X=\mathcal{M}(A)$ be an affinoid space and let $f,g \in A$. We study the sets of connected components of the spaces defined by an inequality of the form $|f|\le r|g|$, with $r\ge 0$. We prove that there exists a finite partition of…

We prove an upper bound on the systolic ratio of an orientable isometric filling of the circle equipped with a Riemannian metric. The bound depends only on the genus of isometric filling. We also apply the bound to the class of orientable…

Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…

Let X be a projective scheme over a finite field. In this paper, we consider the asymptotic behavior of the number of effective cycles on X with bounded degree as it goes to the infinity. By this estimate, we can define a certain kind of…

We show how to compute the circular area invariant of planar curves, and the spherical volume invariant of surfaces, in terms of line and surface integrals, respectively. We use the Divergence Theorem to express the area and volume…

We define generalized Collatz mappings on free abelian groups of finite rank and study their iteration trajectories. Using geometric arguments we describe cones of points having a divergent trajectory and we deduce lower bounds for the…

We begin by defining general hypergeometric functions over finite fields and obtaining a finite field analogue of a classical symmetry in their complex counterparts. We give a geometric proof for the symmetry by constructing isomorphisms…

For surfaces without boundary, nonlocal notions of directional and mean curvatures have been recently given. Here, we develop alternative notions, special cases of which apply to surfaces with boundary. Our main tool is a new fractional or…

We use the classical definitions (i) $\pi$ is the ratio of area to the square of the radius of a circle; (ii) $\pi$ is the ratio of circumference to the diameter of a circle, to prove $\pi$'s existence within the purview of Euclidean…

Continued fractions with prescribed structures on sequences of their partial quotients have been intensively studied in the literature. As far as an integer sequence, especially a randomly generated one is concerned, an attractive question…
