This brief survey of some singularity invariants related to Milnor fibers should serve as a quick guide to references. We attempt to place things into a wide geometric context while leaving technicalities aside. We focus on relations among…
In this paper we introduce a new invariant (the distant degree) for difference field extensions of finite transcendence degree, and we explore some of its properties. We also discuss a generalisation of this invariant and of the limit…
We construct variations for the classes of regular solutions to degenerate Beltrami equations with restrictions of the set-theoretic type for the complex coefficient. On this basis, we prove the variational maximum principle and other…
We provide a higher dimensional extension of the gravitational decoupling method. This extended method allows to obtain new analytic and well behaved solutions that could be associated to higher dimensional stellar distributions.…
A survey of recent results concerning cardinal invariants of measure and category. Submitted as a chapter of the upcoming Handbook of Set Theory.
For a right invariant distance on a permutation space $S_n$ we give a sufficient condition for the cardinality of a ball of radius $R$ to grow polynomially in $n$ for fixed $R$. For the distance $\ell_1$ we show that for an integer $k$ the…
An optimal control problem for the continuity equation is considered. The aim of a controller is to maximize the total mass within a target set at a given type moment. An iterative numerical algorithm for solving this problem is presented.
We study homogenization by Gamma-convergence of periodic multiple integrals of the calculus of variations when the integrand can take infinite values outside of a convex set of matrices.
The fundamental problem of the calculus of variations on time scales concerns the minimization of a delta-integral over all trajectories satisfying given boundary conditions. This includes the discrete-time, the quantum, and the…
We lay the combinatorial foundations for [ShSt:340] by setting up and proving the essential properties of the coding apparatus for singular cardinals. We also prove another result concerning the coding apparatus for inaccessible cardinals.
Cardinal characteristics of the continuum represent the boundaries in size between the countable and the continuum with respect to certain properties of sets. They are often defined as the minimum sizes of families of reals that meet some…
In the context of optimal control, we consider the inverse problem of Lagrangian identification given system dynamics and optimal trajectories. Many of its theoretical and practical aspects are still open. Potential applications are very…
We obtain Euler-Lagrange and transversality optimality conditions for higher-order infinite horizon variational problems on a time scale. The new necessary optimality conditions improve the classical results both in the continuous and…
Various types of stabilizing controls lead to a deterministic difference equation with the following property: once the initial value is positive, the solution tends to the unique positive equilibrium. Introducing additive perturbations can…
Incomplete pairwise comparison matrices offer a natural way of expressing preferences in decision making processes. Although ordinal information is crucial, there is a bias in the literature: cardinal models dominate. Ordinal models usually…
We show, assuming the consistency of one measurable cardinal, that it is consistent for there to be exactly kappa+ many normal measures on the least measurable cardinal kappa. This answers a question of Stewart Baldwin. The methods…
We use a reverse Easton forcing iteration to obtain a universe with a definable well-ordering, while preserving the GCH and proper classes of a variety of very large cardinals. This is achieved by coding using the principle diamond star at…
We consider dilaton stabilization with R invariance, which insures a vanishing cosmological constant at the scale of stabilization. We construct a few models which accommodate weak gauge couplings with large or small gauge groups. Matter…
It is known that there is at least an invariant analytic curve passing through each of the components in the complement of nodal singularities, after the reduction of singularities of a germ of singular foliation in ${\mathbb C}^2,0$}.…
We propose two new alternating direction methods to solve "fully" nonsmooth constrained convex problems. Our algorithms have the best known worst-case iteration-complexity guarantee under mild assumptions for both the objective residual and…
