Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function and define $p(n,k)=\sum_{j=0}^{k}\binom{n-j}{k-j}p(j)$ where $p(0)=1$. We prove that $p(n,k)$ is unimodal and satisfies $p(n,k) < \frac{2.825}{\sqrt{n}}\, 2^n $ for fixed $n\ge 1$ and all $1\le k\le n$. This result has an interesting application: the minimal dimension of a faithful module for a...
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for disturbance rejection in a class of nonautonomous nonlinear systems affected by trigonometric-polynomial disturbances. The core of our approach is the design of a canonical internal model that directly converts the disturbance rejection problem into an adaptive stabilization problem for...
We classify the cohomology spaces $H^2(\mathfrak{g},K)$ for all filiform nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension $n\le 11$ over $K$ and for certain classes of algebras of dimension $n\ge 12$. The result is applied to the determination of affine cohomology classes $[ω]\in H^2(\mathfrak{g},K)$. We prove the general result that the existence...
Epidemic models play a crucial role in population dynamics, offering valuable insights into disease transmission while aiding in epidemic prediction and control. In this paper, we analyze the mathematical model of the time-fractional Zika virus transmission for human and mosquito populations. The fractional derivative is considered in...
We prove a quantitative rigidity result for almost constant mean curvature spheres in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Under a sub--two--sphere Willmore bound and a small $L^2$--CMC defect, we show that an almost--CMC surface is close to the round sphere, with linear control of the $W^{2,2}$--distance of the parametrization and the $L^\infty$--norm of...
The generalized Turán number for $H$ of $G$, denoted by $\ex(n,H,G)$, is the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $n$-vertex $G$-free graph. When $H$ is an edge, $\ex(n,H,G)$ is the classical Turán number $\ex(n,G)$. Let $P_k$ be the path with $k$ vertices. The square of $P_k$, denoted by $P_k^2$, is obtained by joining the pairs of...
In this work we consider entropy stable discontinuous Galerkin methods applied to nonconservative hyperbolic systems. We introduce a new class of entropy conservative fluctuations that allow us to construct entropy conservative schemes without any system-specific derivations. We demonstrate that a loss of entropy symmetrization for...
In this work, we consider the burnt pancake problem, which is a well-studied problem going back to a work of Gates and Papadimitriou from 1979.The problem is to sort a stack of~$n$ one-sided burnt pancakes of different sizes, by a sequence of flips of the top pancakes, such that at the end of the flipping sequence the pancakes have...
The question of when the derived category of a ring satisfies Brown--Adams representability is revisited via studying the transfer of pure homological dimension along definable functors: it is shown that, for any ring, the pure global dimension of the derived category is at least the pure global dimension of the ring; expanding...
We study compact non-selfsimilar ancient noncollapsed solutions to the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, called ancient ovals. Our main result is the classification of $k$-ovals: any $k$-oval (characterized by having cylindrical blow down $\mathbb{R}^k\times S^{n-k}$ and the quadratic bending asymptotics) belongs, up to...
This work presents a randomized-tamed Milstein scheme for stochastic differential equations whose drift coefficient exhibits superlinear growth in the state variable and limited temporal regularity, quantified by $β$-Hölder continuity with $β\in (0,1]$. The scheme combines a taming mechanism to control the superlinear state dependence...
In this paper, we investigate the gradient estimates for solutions to the perfect conductivity problem with two closely spaced perfect conductors embedded in a homogeneous matrix, modeled by $p$-Laplacian elliptic equations. We first prove that the gradient of the solution remains bounded when the conductors possess partially ``flat"...
We study a $q$-deformed random unitary ensemble associated with the little-$q$ Laguerre weight, which provides a discrete analogue of the classical Laguerre unitary ensemble. In the double scaling regime $q=e^{-λ/N}$, where $N$ is the system size and $λ\ge 0$, we derive the limiting spectral distribution as $N\to \infty$, which yields...
We study the congruence classes attained by positive integers $D$ with a prescribed period of the continued fraction of $\sqrt D$. As an application, we refine the available results on large ranks of universal quadratic forms over real quadratic fields by also imposing congruence conditions on their discriminants.
Let $A$ be the algebra $\mathbb{C}[X_1^{\pm 1},X_2^{\pm 1}]$ and $Q(A)$ its quotient field. In this short article, we exhibit the correct normalization for the toric period on the parabolically induced unramified family over $Q(A)$, so that it behaves optimally under restriction to the parabolically induced unramified family over $A$....
We propose two globally continuous neural-based variants of the Neural Approximated Virtual Element Method (NAVEM), termed B-NAVEM and P-NAVEM. Both approaches construct local basis functions using pre-trained fully connected neural networks while ensuring exact continuity across adjacent mesh elements. B-NAVEM leverages a...
In this paper we study some relationships between the first Dirichlet eigenvalue $Λ(Ω)$ and the torsional rigidity $T(Ω)$ of a domain $Ω$. We consider the problem of optimizing the product $Λ(Ω)T(Ω)$ among sets with prescribed perimeter, both in the class of open sets with finite perimeter and within the class of convex domains. We...
In this paper, we investigate birational toric morphisms between quantum toric stacks -- namely, toric (analytic) stacks associated with fans whose cones may be irrational -- focusing on two primary classes of examples: weighted blow-ups with arbitrary weights, and morphisms induced by cobordisms.
Let $f\in\mathbb R[x,y,z]$ be a fixed non-degenerate quadratic polynomial. Given an $α$-Frostman probability measure $μ$ supported on $[0,1]$ with $α\in(0,1)$, consider the pushforward measure $ν=f_{\#}(μ\timesμ\timesμ)$ on $\mathbb R$. We prove the following $L^2$ energy estimate: for a fixed nonnegative Schwartz function $\varphi$...
The aim of this paper is to take the study of Dedekind braces, that is, left braces for which every subbrace is an ideal, started in a previous paper, further. Dedekind braces $A$ whose additive group is non-periodic are analysed. We prove sufficient conditions for $A$ to be abelian: it is enough that every element is $2$-nilpotent...
We establish an integral identity for functions on R^2 that are invariant under discrete diagonal translations. The identity shows that integration over the diamond-shaped region |x| + |y| <= L is exactly one half of the integral over the square domain [-L, L]^2, allowing diamond-domain integrals to be reduced to easier rectangular...
For a property $\mathcal{X}$ of integral domains, an integral domain $D$ is said to be a {\it locally $\mathcal{X}$-domain} if $D_P$ has the property $\mathcal{X}$ for every prime ideal $P$ of $D$. In this paper, we study the transfer of local properties of integral domains under several extensions and constructions, including flat...
Motivated by pioneering works of Bandle and Wagner, given a bounded Lipschitz domain $Ω\subset \mathbb R^d$ with $d\ge3$, we consider the Robin-Laplacian torsional rigidity $τ_α(Ω)$ with negative boundary parameter $α$ and we show that sharp inequalities for $τ_α(Ω)$ hold if $|α|$ is small enough. In particular, we prove that, if...
We establish a non-ergodic version of the Host-Kra-Ziegler structure theorem for measure-preserving $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions. Our argument reduces the non-ergodic case to the ergodic theorem (for $d\ge 2$ due to Candela and Szegedy) via a measurable selection procedure. We also establish a non-ergodic vertical nilcharacter version of...
Banderier, Marchal, and Wallner considered Young tableaux with walls, which are similar to standard Young tableaux, except that local decreases are allowed at some walls. In this work, we prove a conjecture of Fuchs and Yu concerning the enumeration of two classes of three-row Young tableaux with walls. Combining with the work by...
