Some scales of spaces of ultra-differentiable functions are introduced, having good stability properties with respect to infinitely many derivatives and compositions. They are well-suited for solving non-linear functional equations by means…

We give a cohomological interpretation of both the Kac polynomial and the refined Donaldson-Thomas- invariants of quivers. This interpretation yields a proof of a conjecture of Kac from 1982 and gives a new perspective on recent work of…

We show that the straightforward application of the discriminant to some physical problems may yield a trivial useless result. If the symmetry of the model matrix does not change with variations of the model parameter the discriminant may…

We prove (and improve) the Muir-Suffridge conjecture for holomorphic convex maps. Namely, let $F:\mathbb B^n\to \mathbb C^n$ be a univalent map from the unit ball whose image $D$ is convex. Let $\mathcal S\subset \partial \mathbb B^n$ be…

A fundamental theorem of matroid theory establishes that a transversal matroid is representable over fields of any characteristic. It was proved in 1970 by Piff and Welsh: their proof is elegant and concise and, moveover, constructive.…

Symmetrizable matrices are those which are symmetric when multiplied by a diagonal matrix with positive entries. The Cauchy interlace theorem states that the eigenvalues of a real symmetric matrix interlace with those of any principal…

Consider a symmetric function $\mathcal{C}(x,y)$ on $[0,1]\times[0,1]$ which is twice continuously differentiable up to the boundary, and which satisfies $ \mathcal{C}(x,y)=\mathcal{C}(1-x,1-y)$. Let $A^{(n)} = \big(a^{(n)}_{i,j}\, :\, i,j…

We give new necessary and sufficient conditions for higher order convex ordering. These results generalize the Levin-Ste\v{c}kin theorem (1960) on convex ordering. The obtained results can be useful in the study of the Hermite-Hadamard type…

We prove that the Calabi invariant of a $C^1$ pseudo-rotation of the unit disk, that coincides with a rotation on the unit circle, is equal to its rotation number. This result has been shown some years ago by Michael Hutchings (under very…

A characteristic matrix function captures the spectral information of a bounded linear operator in a matrix-valued function. In this article, we consider a delay differential equation with one discrete time delay and assume this equation is…

In this note we settle two open problems in the theory of permanents by using recent results from other areas of mathematics. Bapat conjectured that certain quotients of permanents, which generalize symmetric function means, are concave. We…

It is a classical result of Wigner that for an hermitian matrix with independent entries on and above the diagonal, the mean empirical eigenvalue distribution converges weakly to the semicircle law as matrix size tends to infinity. In this…

We give canonical matrices of a pair (A,B) consisting of a nondegenerate form B and a linear operator A satisfying B(Ax,Ay)=B(x,y) on a vector space over F in the following cases: (i) F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic…

Let $h$ be a harmonic function defined on a spherical disk. It is shown that $\Delta^k |h|^2$ is nonnegative for all $k\in \mathbb{N}$ where $\Delta$ is the Laplace-Beltrami operator. This fact is generalized to harmonic functions defined…

We continue the analysis in [3] of matrix convex functions of a fixed order defined in a real interval by differential methods as opposed to the characterization in terms of divided differences given by Kraus [5]. We amend and improve some…

For any primitive matrix $M\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ with positive diagonal entries, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a positive vector $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\dots,x_n)^t$ such that $M\mathbf{x}=(\frac{1}{x_1},\dots,\frac{1}{x_n})^t$.…

The first author proved that the harmonic convolution of a normalized right half-plane mapping with either another normalized right half-plane mapping or a normalized vertical strip mapping is convex in the direction of the real axis.…

We consider constrained Hamiltonian systems in the framework of Dirac's theory. We show that the Jacobi identity results from imposing that the constraints are Casimir invariants, regardless of the fact that the matrix of Poisson brackets…

Lambert's theorem (1761) on the elapsed time along a Keplerian arc drew the attention of several prestigious mathematicians. In particular, they tried to give simple and transparent proofs of it (see our timeline \S 9). We give two new…

A known Hardy-Littlewood theorem asserts that if both the function and its conjugate are of bounded variation, then their Fourier series are absolutely convergent. It is proved in the paper that the same result holds true for functions on…
