This paper contains several results about the structure of the congruence kernel C^(S)(G) of an absolutely almost simple simply connected algebraic group G over a global field K with respect to a set of places S of K. In particular, we show…
Walsh has recently proved the norm convergence of all nonconventional ergodic averages involving polynomial sequences in discrete nilpotent acting groups. He deduces this convergence from an equivalent, `finitary' assertion of stability…
The basic disentanglement theorem established by the present authors states that estimates on a weighted geometric mean over (convex) families of functions can be disentangled into quantitatively linked estimates on each family separately.…
In this paper we attack the Erdos-Straus conjecture by means of the structure of its solutions, extending and improving the results of a previous paper. Using previous results and supported by the works of Elsholtz and Tao and Monks and…
Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics is undoubtedly a cornerstone for the description of many particle systems. The common interpretation is based on ensemble theory as put forward by Gibbs, alongside the basic assumptions that different…
We study the confluence property of abstract rewriting systems internal to cubical categories. We introduce cubical contractions, a higher-dimensional generalisation of reductions to normal forms, and employ them to construct cubical…
To prove that a measure, linearly representable by means of a finite set of nonnegative matrices $\mathcal M$, has the weak-Gibbs property, one check the uniform convergence (on $\mathcal M^\mathbb N$) of the sequence of vectors…
We consider cut-elimination in the sequent calculus for classical first-order logic. It is well known that this system, in its most general form, is neither confluent nor strongly normalizing. In this work we take a coarser (and…
A conjecture of Hopkins (2018) posits that for certain high-dimensional hypothesis testing problems, no polynomial-time algorithm can outperform so-called "simple statistics", which are low-degree polynomials in the data. This conjecture…
We consider knot theories possessing a {\em parity}: each crossing is decreed {\em odd} or {\em even} according to some universal rule. If this rule satisfies some simple axioms concerning the behaviour under Reidemeister moves, this leads…
Final revision. To appear in the Journal of Differential Geometry. This paper studies knots that are transversal to the standard contact structure in $\reals^3$, bringing techniques from topological knot theory to bear on their transversal…
We provide for all prime numbers $p$ examples of smooth projective curves over a field of characteristic $p$ for which base change of the fundamental group scheme fails. This is intimately related to how $F$-trivial vector bundles, i.e.…
In 1979 Frankl conjectured that in a finite non-trivial union-closed collection of sets there has to be an element that belongs to at least half the sets. We show that this is equivalent to the conjecture that in a finite non-trivial graph…
The classification of flag-transitive generalised quadrangles is a long-standing open problem at the interface of finite geometry and permutation group theory. Given that all known flag-transitive generalised quadrangles are also…
Abstract simulation of one transition system by another is introduced as a means to simulate a potentially infinite class of similar transition sequences within a single transition sequence. This is useful for proving confluence under…
The Union Closed Sets Conjecture states that in every finite, nontrivial set family closed under taking unions there is an element contained in at least half of all the sets of the family. We investigate two new directions with respect to…
Understanding how singularities behave under small perturbations is a central theme in singularity theory. In this paper we establish sufficient conditions for families of analytic function-germs on a germ of a complex analytic space to…
The cluster perturbation theory (CPT) is one of the simplest but systematic quantum cluster approaches to lattice models of strongly correlated electrons with local interactions. By treating the inter-cluster potential, in addition to the…
The union-closed sets conjecture, also known as Frankl's conjecture, is a well-studied problem with various formulations. In terms of lattices, the conjecture states that every finite lattice $L$ with more than one element contains a…
We introduce a general framework to unify several variants of twisted topological $K$-theory. We focus on the role of finite dimensional real simple algebras with a product-preserving involution, showing that Grothendieck-Witt groups…
