We show that geodesics in $\mathbf {H}$ attached to a maximal split torus or a real quadratic torus in $GL_{2, \mathbf {Q}}$ are the only irreducible algebraic curves in $\mathbf {H}$ whose image in $\mathbf {R}^2$ via the j-invariant is contained in an algebraic curve.

In this paper, we determine the homotopy types of the Morse complexes of certain collections of simplicial complexes by studying dominating vertices or strong collapses. We show that if K contains two leaves that share a common vertex, then its Morse complex is strongly collapsible and hence has the homotopy type of a point. We also show that the pure Morse complex of a tree is strongly collapsible, thereby recovering as a corollary a result of Ayala et al. (2008, Topology and Its Applications 155, 2084–2089). In addition, we prove that the Morse complex of a disjoint union $K\sqcup L$ is the Morse complex of the join $K*L$ . This result is used to compute the homotopy type of the Morse complex of some families of graphs, including Caterpillar graphs, as well as the automorphism group of a disjoint union for a large collection of disjoint complexes.

Let R be an integral domain with $qf(R)=K$ , and let $F(R)$ be the set of nonzero fractional ideals of R. Call R a dually compact domain (DCD) if, for each $I\in F(R)$ , the ideal $I_{v}=(I^{-1})^{-1}$ is a finite intersection of principal fractional ideals. We characterize DCDs and show that the class of DCDs properly contains various classes of integral domains, such as Noetherian, Mori, and Krull domains. In addition, we show that a Schreier DCD is a greatest common divisor (GCD) (Greatest Common Divisor) domain with the property that, for each $A\in F(R)$ , the ideal $A_{v}$ is principal. We show that a domain R is G-Dedekind (i.e., has the property that $A_{v}$ is invertible for each $A\in F(R)$ ) if and only if R is a DCD satisfying the property $\ast :$ For all pairs of subsets $\{a_{1},\ldots ,a_{m}\},\{b_{1},\ldots ,b_{n}\}\subseteq K\backslash \{0\}, (\cap _{i=1}^{m}(a_{i})(\cap _{j=1}^{n}(b_{j}))=\cap _{i,j=1}^{m,n}(a_{i}b_{j})$ . We discuss what the appropriate names for G-Dedekind domains and related notions should be. We also make some observations about how the DCDs behave under localizations and polynomial ring extensions.

For a three-dimensional quantum polynomial algebra $A=\mathcal {A}(E,\sigma )$ , Artin, Tate, and Van den Bergh showed that A is finite over its center if and only if $|\sigma |<\infty $ . Moreover, Artin showed that if A is finite over its center and $E\neq \mathbb P^{2}$ , then A has a fat point module, which plays an important role in noncommutative algebraic geometry; however, the converse is not true in general. In this paper, we will show that if $E\neq \mathbb P^{2}$ , then A has a fat point module if and only if the quantum projective plane ${\sf Proj}_{\text {nc}} A$ is finite over its center in the sense of this paper if and only if $|\nu ^{*}\sigma ^{3}|<\infty $ where $\nu $ is the Nakayama automorphism of A. In particular, we will show that if the second Hessian of E is zero, then A has no fat point module.

Consider three normalized cuspidal eigenforms of weight $2$ and prime level p. Under the assumption that the global root number of the associated triple product L-function is $+1$ , we prove that the complex Abel–Jacobi image of the modified diagonal cycle of Gross–Kudla–Schoen on the triple product of the modular curve $X_0(p)$ is torsion in the corresponding Hecke isotypic component of the Griffiths intermediate Jacobian. The same result holds with the complex Abel–Jacobi map replaced by its étale counterpart. As an application, we deduce torsion properties of Chow–Heegner points associated with modified diagonal cycles on elliptic curves of prime conductor with split multiplicative reduction. The approach also works in the case of composite square-free level.

Erdős space $\mathfrak {E}$ and complete Erdős space $\mathfrak {E}_{c}$ have been previously shown to have topological characterizations. In this paper, we provide a topological characterization of the topological space $\mathbb {Q}\times \mathfrak {E}_{c}$ , where $\mathbb {Q}$ is the space of rational numbers. As a corollary, we show that the Vietoris hyperspace of finite sets $\mathcal {F}(\mathfrak {E}_{c})$ is homeomorphic to $\mathbb {Q}\times \mathfrak {E}_{c}$ . We also characterize the factors of $\mathbb {Q}\times \mathfrak {E}_{c}$ . An interesting open question that is left open is whether $\sigma \mathfrak {E}_{c}^{\omega }$ , the $\sigma $ -product of countably many copies of $\mathfrak {E}_{c}$ , is homeomorphic to $\mathbb {Q}\times \mathfrak {E}_{c}$ .

We discuss several ways of packing a hyperbolic surface with circles (of either varying radii or all being congruent) or horocycles, and note down some observations related to their symmetries (or the absence thereof).

We prove several results on unavoidable families of meromorphic functions. For instance, we give new examples of families of cardinality 3 that are unavoidable with respect to the set of meromorphic functions on $\mathbb C$ . We further obtain families consisting of less than three functions that are unavoidable with respect to certain subsets of meromorphic functions. In the other direction, we show that for every meromorphic function f, there exists an entire function that avoids f on $\mathbb C$ .

We shall prove a convergence result relative to sequences of Minkowski symmetrals of general compact sets. In particular, we investigate the case when this process is induced by sequences of subspaces whose elements belong to a finite family, following the path marked by Klain in Klain (2012, Advances in Applied Mathematics 48, 340–353), and the generalizations in Bianchi et al. (2019, Convergence of symmetrization processes, preprint) and Bianchi et al. (2012, Indiana University Mathematics Journal 61, 1695–1710). We prove an analogous result for fiber symmetrization of a specific class of compact sets. The idempotency for symmetrizations of this family of sets is investigated, leading to a simple generalization of a result from Klartag (2004, Geometric and Functional Analysis 14, 1322–1338) regarding the approximation of a ball through a finite number of symmetrizations, and generalizing an approximation result in Fradelizi, Làngi and Zvavitch (2020, Volume of the Minkowski sums of star-shaped sets, preprint).

$\bar {\partial } $ -extension of the matrix Riemann–Hilbert method is used to study asymptotics of the polynomials $ P_n(z) $ satisfying orthogonality relations

$$ \begin{align*} \int_{-1}^1 x^lP_n(x)\frac{\rho(x)dx}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}=0, \quad l\in\{0,\ldots,n-1\}, \end{align*} $$

where $ \rho (x) $ is a positive $ m $ times continuously differentiable function on $ [-1,1] $ , $ m\geq 3 $ .

We introduce natural strengthenings of sequential compactness, the r-Ramsey property for each natural number $r\geq 1$ . We prove that metrizable compact spaces are r-Ramsey for all r and give examples of compact spaces that are r-Ramsey but not $(r+1)$ -Ramsey for each $r\geq 1$ (assuming Continuum Hypothesis (CH) for all $r>1$ ). Productivity of the r-Ramsey property is considered.

We prove that $164\, 634\, 913$ is the smallest positive integer that is a sum of two rational sixth powers, but not a sum of two integer sixth powers. If $C_{k}$ is the curve $x^{6} + y^{6} = k$ , we use the existence of morphisms from $C_{k}$ to elliptic curves, together with the Mordell–Weil sieve, to rule out the existence of rational points on $C_{k}$ for various k.

Dans cet article on caractérise la lissité du schéma Quot ponctuel emboîté d’une variété lisse—c’est-à-dire l’espace de modules paramétrant les drapeaux de quotients de dimension $0$ d’un faisceau localement libre fixé. Nos résultats étendent la classification de Cheah dans le cadre des schémas de Hilbert ponctuels emboîtés.

We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition $\int _{2}^x\left (\pi (t)-\operatorname {\textrm {li}}(t)\right )\textrm {d}t<0$ for all $x>2$ . Here, $\pi (t)$ is the prime-counting function and $\operatorname {\textrm {li}}(t)$ is the logarithmic integral. This makes explicit a claim of Pintz. Moreover, we prove an analogous result for the Chebyshev function $\theta (t)$ and discuss the extent to which one can make related claims unconditionally.

Let $f:R\to S$ be a ring homomorphism and J be an ideal of S. Then the subring $R\bowtie ^fJ:=\{(r,f(r)+j)\mid r\in R$ and $j\in J\}$ of $R\times S$ is called the amalgamation of R with S along J with respect to f. In this paper, we characterize when $R\bowtie ^fJ$ is a Hilbert ring. As an application, we provide an example of Hilbert ring with maximal ideals of different heights. We also construct non-Noetherian Hilbert rings whose maximal ideals are all finitely generated (unruly Hilbert rings).

Given a holomorphic self-map $\varphi $ of $\mathbb {D}$ (the open unit disc in $\mathbb {C}$ ), the composition operator $C_{\varphi } f = f \circ \varphi $ , $f \in H^2(\mathbb {\mathbb {D}})$ , defines a bounded linear operator on the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb {\mathbb {D}})$ . The model spaces are the backward shift-invariant closed subspaces of $H^2(\mathbb {\mathbb {D}})$ , which are canonically associated with inner functions. In this paper, we study model spaces that are invariant under composition operators. Emphasis is put on finite-dimensional model spaces, affine transformations, and linear fractional transformations.

This short note refines a noncommutative (nc) Oka–Weil theorem by using a characterization of free compact nc sets based on the notion of dilation hulls. A consequence of it is that any free holomorphic function can be represented as a free polynomial on each free compact nc set.

We show that the $Kn$ –smooth part of $a^n-1$ for an integer $a>1$ is $a^{o(n)}$ for most positive integers n.

The cusped hyperbolic n-orbifolds of minimal volume are well known for $n\leq 9$ . Their fundamental groups are related to the Coxeter n-simplex groups $\Gamma _{n}$ . In this work, we prove that $\Gamma _{n}$ has minimal growth rate among all non-cocompact Coxeter groups of finite covolume in $\textrm{Isom}\mathbb H^{n}$ . In this way, we extend previous results of Floyd for $n=2$ and of Kellerhals for $n=3$ , respectively. Our proof is a generalization of the methods developed together with Kellerhals for the cocompact case.

Hausel and Rodriguez-Villegas (2015, Astérisque 370, 113–156) recently observed that work of Göttsche, combined with a classical result of Erdös and Lehner on integer partitions, implies that the limiting Betti distribution for the Hilbert schemes $(\mathbb {C}^{2})^{[n]}$ on $n$ points, as $n\rightarrow +\infty ,$ is a Gumbel distribution. In view of this example, they ask for further such Betti distributions. We answer this question for the quasihomogeneous Hilbert schemes $((\mathbb {C}^{2})^{[n]})^{T_{\alpha ,\beta }}$ that are cut out by torus actions. We prove that their limiting distributions are also of Gumbel type. To obtain this result, we combine work of Buryak, Feigin, and Nakajima on these Hilbert schemes with our generalization of the result of Erdös and Lehner, which gives the distribution of the number of parts in partitions that are multiples of a fixed integer $A\geq 2.$ Furthermore, if $p_{k}(A;n)$ denotes the number of partitions of $n$ with exactly $k$ parts that are multiples of $A$ , then we obtain the asymptotic

$$ \begin{align*} p_{k}(A,n)\sim \frac{24^{\frac k2-\frac14}(n-Ak)^{\frac k2-\frac34}}{\sqrt2\left(1-\frac1A\right)^{\frac k2-\frac14}k!A^{k+\frac12}(2\pi)^{k}}e^{2\pi\sqrt{\frac1{6}\left(1-\frac1A\right)(n-Ak)}}, \end{align*} $$
