In this paper, we extend the results of \cite{BCGS} on refined conjectures by Kurihara and Kolyvagin, allowing primes of any reduction type in the case of Kurihara's conjectures, and inert primes in the underlying imaginary quadratic field in the case of Kolyvagin's. The key innovation is a new approach to the computation of the...
Non-discrete semigroup $T_1$-topologies on the extended bicyclic semigroup $\mathscr{C}_\mathbb{Z}$ are constructed. Also, we present topological conditions, when a semigroup (shift-continuous) $T_1$-topology on $\mathscr{C}_\mathbb{Z}$ is discrete.
The domination polynomial of a graph $G$ is given by $D(G,x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n} d_k(G)x^k$ where $d_k(G)$ records the number of $k$-element dominating sets in $G$. A conjecture of Alikhani and Peng asserts that these polynomials have unimodal coefficient sequences. We develop three complementary perspectives that strengthen existing tools...
In this paper, we evaluate stochastic-computing simulated annealing (SC-SA) for solving large-scale combinatorial optimization problems. SC-SA is designed using stochastic computing, where the computatoin is reazlied using random bitstream, resulting in fast converging to the global minimum energy of the problems. The proposed SC-SA...
Fully symmetric positive interior (f-SPI) quadrature rules are key building blocks for high-order discretizations of partial differential equations, yet high-degree rules with few nodes remain scarce on reference elements commonly used in mesh generation. We construct new f-SPI rules on the square, cube, prism, and pyramid by coupling...
We provide a complete characterization of those self-homeomorphisms of the unit circle that admit homeomorphic extensions to the unit disk belonging to bi--Orlicz--Sobolev spaces. Our results generalize classical criteria from the Sobolev setting to the more flexible Orlicz framework.
Counting linear extensions is a fundamental problem in poset theory. It is known to be #P-complete, with polynomial-time formulas available in special cases. In this work, we develop new recursive formulas for counting linear extensions of posets whose modular partitions have particular structure. Specifically, we focus on posets...
We study the space-time concentration or blow-up asymptotics of radially decreasing solutions of the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system in the whole space or in a ball. We show that, for any solution in dimensions $3\le n\le 9$ (assuming finite mass in the whole space case), there exists a nonflat backward self-similar solution...
We study the maximum size of a subset of the $n \times n$ integer grid that does not contain specific geometric configurations, a variation of the classical problems initiated by Erdős and Purdy. While extremal problems for 3-point patterns, such as collinear triples and right triangles are well-studied, the landscape for 4-point...
We develop the foundations of the theory of quasi-visual approximations of bounded metric spaces. Roughly speaking, these are sequences of covers of a given space for which the diameters of the sets in the covers shrink to zero and for which relative metric quantities (such as ratios of diameters and distances) are uniformly...
The Fokker-Planck (FP) particle method accelerates rarefied-gas simulations by replacing the binary collisions of the commonly used Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method with a drift=diffusion process. Like all particle methods, the FP method is inherently stochastic, which leads to statistical fluctuations in macroscopic...
We study transport distances on metric graphs representing gas networks. Starting from the dynamic formulation of the Wasserstein distance, we review extensions to networks, with and without the possibility of storing mass on the vertices. Next, we examine the asymptotic behavior of the static Wasserstein distance on a...
Entropic optimal transport problems play an increasingly important role in machine learning and generative modelling. In contrast with optimal transport maps which often have limited applicability in high dimensions, Schrodinger bridges can be solved using the celebrated Sinkhorn's algorithm, a.k.a. the iterative proportional fitting...
In this paper, we investigate the behavior of Igusa-Todorov properties under recollements of abelian categories. In particular, we study how the Igusa-Todorov distances of the categories involved in a recollement are related. Applications are given to Artin algebras, especially to Morita context rings.
In this paper, we define non-parabolic spatial hybrid framed curves in the spatial hybrid number space, which may have singularities, and prove the existence and uniqueness theorem for non-parabolic spatial hybrid framed curves. As applications, we define evolutes, involutes, pedal and contrapedal curves of non-parabolic spatial...
We study the fluctuations of subgraph counts in hyperbolic random geometric graphs on the $d$-dimensional Poincaré ball in the heterogeneous, heavy-tailed degree regime. In a hyperbolic random geometric graph whose vertices are given by a Poisson point process on a growing hyperbolic ball, we consider two basic families of subgraphs:...
In this paper, we develop a novel mesh-free framework, termed physics-informed neural networks with invariant measure score matching (PINN-IMSM), for reconstructing dynamical systems from unlabeled point-cloud data that capture the system's invariant measure. The invariant density satisfies the steady-state Fokker-Planck (FP)...
This paper details a generalization of the formalism presented in the author's 2024 paper, "The Collatz Conjecture and Non-Archimedean Spectral Theory - Part I - Arithmetic Dynamical Systems and Non-Archimedean Value Distribution Theory", to the case of Hydra maps on the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{K}$ of a global field $K$. In...
We present a rigorous mathematical analysis of a modified Landau-de Gennes (LdG) theory modeling temperature-driven phase transitions between cholesteric, helical smectic, and smectic C* phases. This model couples a tensor-valued order parameter (nematic orientational order) with a real-valued order parameter (smectic layer...
In this paper, we study a structured family of matrices whose entries are given by products of $k$-Fibonacci and $k$-Lucas numbers. For this family, we obtain explicit and unified formulas for several classical matrix invariants, including the determinant, inverse, trace, and matrix powers, revealing nontrivial algebraic patterns...
Let $d>1$ be an integer and $K_0$ a perfect field such that $char(K_0)$ does not divide $d$. Let $n>d$ be an integer that is prime to $d$. Let $f(x)\in K_0[x]$ be a degree $n$ monic polynomial without repeated roots, and $\mathcal{C}_{f,d}$ a smooth projective model of the affine curve $y^d=f(x)$. Let $J(\mathcal{C}_{f,d})$ be the...
We derive sharp bounds for the boundary control cost of the one-dimensional fractional Schrödinger and heat equations. The analysis of the lower bound is based on the study of the control cost of a related singular boundary control problem in finite time, using tools from complex analysis. The analysis of the upper bound relies on the...
Recently, Zhang \cite{Zh20} and Li-Su-Wang-Zhang \cite{LSWZ24+} generalized Llarull's theorem to the noncompact complete spin manifold. In this paper, we further extend their results to the noncompact manifold with compact boundary.
Let Y be a random variable whose moment-generating function exists in some neighborhood of the origin. While probabilistic Stirling numbers of the first and second kind have been introduced, early definitions often failed to satisfy fundamental orthogonality and inverse relations or lacked consistency with classical forms in the case...
Our work is about energy conserving fourth-order time discretizations of a three-field formulation of Maxwell's equations in conjunction with a spatial discretization using higher-order and compatible de Rham finite element spaces. Toward this end, we delineate two broad classes of strategies for general higher-order time...
