The strength for line bundles

We introduce the strength for sections of a line bundle on an algebraic variety. This generalizes the strength of homogeneous polynomials that has been recently introduced to resolve Stillman's conjecture, an important problem in commutative algebra. We establish the first properties of this notion and give some tool to obtain upper bounds on the strength in this framework. Moreover, we show some results on the usual strength such as the reducibility of the set of strength two homogeneous polynomials.

Non-Lebesgue measurability of finite unions of Vitali selectors related to different groups

In this paper, we prove that each topological group isomorphism of the additive topological group $(\mathbb{R},+)$ of real numbers onto itself preserves the non-Lebesgue measurability of Vitali selectors of $\mathbb{R}$. Inspired by Kharazishvili's results, we further prove that each finite union of Vitali selectors related to different countable dense subgroups of $(\mathbb{R}, +)$, is not measurable in the Lebesgue sense. From here, we produce a semigroup of sets, for which elements are not measurable in the Lebesgue sense. We finally show that the produced semigroup is invariant under the action of the group of all affine transformations of $\mathbb{R}$ onto itself.

A Schwarz lemma for hyperbolic harmonic mappings in the unit ball

Assume that $p\in [1,\infty ]$ and $u=P_{h}[\phi ]$, where $\phi \in L^{p}(\mathbb{S}^{n-1},\mathbb{R}^n)$ and $u(0) = 0$. Then we obtain the sharp inequality $\lvert u(x) \rvert \le G_p(\lvert x \rvert )\lVert \phi \rVert_{L^{p}}$ for some smooth function $G_p$ vanishing at $0$. Moreover, we obtain an explicit form of the sharp constant $C_p$ in the inequality $\lVert Du(0)\rVert \le C_p\lVert \phi \rVert \le C_p\lVert \phi \rVert_{L^{p}}$. These two results generalize and extend some known results from the harmonic mapping theory (D. Kalaj, Complex Anal. Oper. Theory 12 (2018), 545–554, Theorem 2.1) and the hyperbolic harmonic theory (B. Burgeth, Manuscripta Math. 77 (1992), 283–291, Theorem 1).

The space $D$ in several variables: random variables and higher moments

We study the Banach space $D([0,1]^m)$ of functions of several variables that are (in a certain sense) right-continuous with left limits, and extend several results previously known for the standard case $m=1$. We give, for example, a description of the dual space, and we show that a bounded multilinear form always is measurable with respect to the $\sigma$-field generated by the point evaluations. These results are used to study random functions in the space. (I.e., random elements of the space.) In particular, we give results on existence of moments (in different senses) of such random functions, and we give an application to the Zolotarev distance between two such random functions.

A note on smooth forms on analytic spaces

We prove that any smooth mapping between reduced analytic spaces induces a natural pullback operation on smooth differential forms.

On homotopy nilpotency of the octonian plane $\mathbb{O}P^2$

Let $\mathbb{O}P^2_{(p)}$ be the $p$-localization of the Cayley projective plane $\mathbb{O}P^2$ for a prime $p$ or $p=0$. We show that the homotopy nilpotency class $\textrm{nil} \Omega(\mathbb{O}P^2_{(p)})<\infty $ for $p>2$ and $\textrm{nil} \Omega (\mathbb{O}P^2_{(p)})=1$ for $p>5$ or $p=0$. The homotopy nilpotency of remaining Rosenfeld projective planes are discussed as well.

Analytic properties of Ohno function

Ohno's relation is a well-known relation on the field of the multiple zeta values and has an interpolation to complex function. In this paper, we call its complex function Ohno function and study it. We consider the region of absolute convergence, give some new expressions, and show new relations of the function. We also give a direct proof of the interpolation of Ohno's relation.

Product property of global $P$-extremal functions

In this note, we establish a product property for $P$-extremal functions in the same spirit as the original product formula due to J. Siciak in Ann. Polon. Math., 39 (1981), 175–211. As a consequence, we obtain convexity for the sublevel sets of such extremal functions. Moreover, we also generalize the product property of $P$-extremal functions established by L. Bos and N. Levenberg in Comput. Methods Funct. Theory 18 (2018), 361–388, and later by N. Levenberg and M. Perera, in Contemporary Mathematics 743 (2020), 11–19, in which no restriction on $P$ is needed.

Results on the normality of square-free monomial ideals and cover ideals under some graph operations

In this paper, we introduce techniques for producing normal square-free monomial ideals from old such ideals. These techniques are then used to investigate the normality of cover ideals under some graph operations. Square-free monomial ideals that come out as linear combinations of two normal ideals are shown to be not necessarily normal; under such a case we investigate the integral closedness of all powers of these ideals.

KMS states on crossed products by abelian groups

We provide a general description of the KMS states for flows whose fixed point algebra satisfies a certain regularity condition. This is then applied to crossed products by discrete groups, and in particular to certain flows on crossed products by discrete abelian groups where the methods can be combined with spectral analysis for abelian automorphism groups.
