Some infinite families of Ramsey ($${\varvec{P}}_\mathbf{3},{\varvec{P}}_{{\varvec{n}}}$$)-minimal trees

For any given two graphs G and H, the notation \(F\rightarrow \) (G, H) means that for any red–blue coloring of all the edges of F will create either a red subgraph isomorphic to G or a blue subgraph isomorphic to H. A graph F is a Ramsey (G, H)-minimal graph if \(F\rightarrow \) (G, H) but \(F-e\nrightarrow (G,H)\), for every \(e \in E(F)\). The class of all Ramsey (G, H)-minimal graphs is denoted by \(\mathcal {R}(G,H)\). In this paper, we construct some infinite families of trees belonging to \(\mathcal {R}(P_3,P_n)\), for \(n=8\) and 9. In particular, we give an algorithm to obtain an infinite family of trees belonging to \(\mathcal {R}(P_3,P_n)\), for \(n\ge 10\).     

Disintegration of positive isometric group representations on $$\varvec{\mathrm {L}^{p}}$$-spaces

Let G be a Polish locally compact group acting on a Polish space \({{X}}\) with a G-invariant probability measure \(\mu \). We factorize the integral with respect to \(\mu \) in terms of the integrals with respect to the ergodic measures on X, and show that \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\mu )\) (\(1\le p<\infty \)) is G-equivariantly isometrically lattice isomorphic to an \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integral of the spaces \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\lambda )\), where \(\lambda \) ranges over the ergodic measures on X. This yields a disintegration of the canonical representation of G as isometric lattice automorphisms of \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\mu )\) as an \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integral of order indecomposable representations. If \(({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) is a probability space, and, for some \(1\le q<\infty \), G acts in a strongly continuous manner on \(\mathrm {L}^{q}({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) as isometric lattice automorphisms that leave the constants fixed, then G acts on \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}}^{\prime },\mu ^{\prime })\) in a similar fashion for all \(1\le p<\infty \). Moreover, there exists an alternative model in which these representations originate from a continuous action of G on a compact Hausdorff space. If \(({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) is separable, the representation of G on \(\mathrm {L}^p(X^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) can then be disintegrated into order indecomposable representations. The notions of \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integrals of Banach spaces and representations that are developed extend those in the literature.     

$${\varvec{}}$$-Jorda homomorphisms ad pseudo $${\varvec{}}$$-Jorda homomorphisms o Baach algebras

Let \(n\in \mathbb {N}\), A and B be Banach algebras and let B be a right A-module. We say that a linear mapping \(\varphi :A\longrightarrow B\) is a pseudo n-Jordan homomorphism if there exists an element \(w\in A\) such that \(\varphi (a^nw)=\varphi (a)^n\cdot w\), for every \(a\in A\) and \(n\ge \) 2. In this paper, among other things, we show that under some conditions if a linear mapping \(\varphi \) is a (pseudo) n-Jordan homomorphism, then it is a (pseudo) \((n + 1)\)-Jordan homomorphism. Additionally, we investigate automatic continuity of surjective pseudo n-Jordan homomorphisms under some conditions.     

Density of translates in weighted $${{\varvec{L}}}^{{\varvec{p}}}$$ spaces on locally compact groups

Let G be a locally compact group, and let \(1\leqslant p < \infty \). Consider the weighted \(L^p\)-space \(L^p(G,\omega )=\{f:\int |f\omega |^p<\infty \}\), where \(\omega :G\rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) is a positive measurable function. Under appropriate conditions on \(\omega \), G acts on \(L^p(G,\omega )\) by translations. When is this action hypercyclic, that is, there is a function in this space such that the set of all its translations is dense in \(L^p(G,\omega )\)? Salas (Trans Am Math Soc 347:993–1004, 1995) gave a criterion of hypercyclicity in the case \(G=\mathbb {Z}\). Under mild assumptions, we present a corresponding characterization for a general locally compact group G. Our results are obtained in a more general setting when the translations only by a subset \(S\subset G\) are considered.     

Characterization of finite $$\varvec{}$$-grous by their Schur multilier

Let G be a finite p-group of order \(p^n\) and M(G) be its Schur multiplier. It is a well known result by Green that \(|M(G)|= p^{\frac{1}{2}n(n-1)-t(G)}\) for some \(t(G) \ge 0\). In this article, we classify non-abelian p-groups G of order \(p^n\) for \(t(G)=\log _p(|G|)+1\).     

Properties of singular integral operators $$\varvec{S}_{\varvec{\alpha ,\beta }}$$

For \(\alpha , \beta \in L^{\infty } (S^1),\) the singular integral operator \(S_{\alpha ,\beta }\) on \(L^2 (S^1)\) is defined by \(S_{\alpha ,\beta }f:= \alpha Pf+\beta Qf\), where P denotes the orthogonal projection of \(L^2(S^1)\) onto the Hardy space \(H^2(S^1),\) and Q denotes the orthogonal projection onto \(H^2(S^1)^{\perp }\). In a recent paper, Nakazi and Yamamoto have studied the normality and self-adjointness of \(S_{\alpha ,\beta }\). This work has shown that \(S_{\alpha ,\beta }\) may have analogous properties to that of the Toeplitz operator. In this paper, we study several other properties of \(S_{\alpha ,\beta }\).     

Decay rates for the magneto-micropolar system in $$\varvec{L^2(}\pmb {\mathbb {R}}^{\varvec{n)}}$$

In this paper, the large time decay of the magneto-micropolar fluid equations on \(\mathbb {R}^n\) (\( n=2,3\)) is studied. We show, for Leray global solutions, that \( \Vert ({\varvec{u}},{\varvec{w}},{\varvec{b}})(\cdot ,t) \Vert _{{L^2(\mathbb {R}^n)}} \rightarrow 0 \) as \(t \rightarrow \infty \) with arbitrary initial data in \( L^2(\mathbb {R}^n)\). When the vortex viscosity is present, we obtain a (faster) decay for the micro-rotational field: \( \Vert {\varvec{w}}(\cdot ,t) \Vert _{{L^2(\mathbb {R}^n)}} = o(t^{-1/2})\). Some related results are also included.     

On the family of elliptic curves $$\varvec{y^2=x^3-m^2x+p^2}$$

In this paper, we study the torsion subgroup and rank of elliptic curves for the subfamilies of \(E_{m,p} : y^2=x^3-m^2x+p^2\), where m is a positive integer and p is a prime. We prove that for any prime p, the torsion subgroup of \(E_{m,p}(\mathbb {Q})\) is trivial for both the cases {\(m\ge 1\), \(m\not \equiv 0\pmod 3\)} and {\(m\ge 1\), \(m \equiv 0 \pmod 3\), with \(gcd(m,p)=1\)}. We also show that given any odd prime p and for any positive integer m with \(m\not \equiv 0\pmod 3\) and \(m\equiv 2\pmod {32}\), the lower bound for the rank of \(E_{m,p}(\mathbb {Q})\) is 2. Finally, we find curves of rank 9 in this family.     

On homogeneous hypersurfaces in $${\mathbb {C}}^3$$

We consider a family \(M_t^n\), with \(n\geqslant 2\), \(t>1\), of real hypersurfaces in a complex affine n-dimensional quadric arising in connection with the classification of homogeneous compact simply connected real-analytic hypersurfaces in  \({\mathbb {C}}^n\) due to Morimoto and Nagano. To finalize their classification, one needs to resolve the problem of the embeddability of \(M_t^n\) in  \({\mathbb {C}}^n\) for \(n=3,7\). In our earlier article we showed that \(M_t^7\) is not embeddable in  \({\mathbb {C}}^7\) for every t and that \(M_t^3\) is embeddable in  \({\mathbb {C}}^3\) for all \(1<t<1+10^{-6}\). In the present paper, we improve on the latter result by showing that the embeddability of \(M_t^3\) in fact takes place for \(1<t<\sqrt{(2+\sqrt{2})/3}\). This is achieved by analyzing the explicit totally real embedding of the sphere \(S^3\) in \({\mathbb {C}}^3\) constructed by Ahern and Rudin. For \(t\geqslant {\sqrt{(2+\sqrt{2})/3}}\), the problem of the embeddability of \(M_t^3\) remains open.     

Heat Kernel Empirical Laws on $${\mathbb {U}}_N$$ and $${\mathbb {GL}}_N$$GLN

This paper studies the empirical laws of eigenvalues and singular values for random matrices drawn from the heat kernel measures on the unitary groups \({\mathbb {U}}_N\) and the general linear groups \({\mathbb {GL}}_N\), for \(N\in {\mathbb {N}}\). It establishes the strongest known convergence results for the empirical eigenvalues in the \({\mathbb {U}}_N\) case, and the first known almost sure convergence results for the eigenvalues and singular values in the \({\mathbb {GL}}_N\) case. The limit noncommutative distribution associated with the heat kernel measure on \({\mathbb {GL}}_N\) is identified as the projection of a flow on an infinite-dimensional polynomial space. These results are then strengthened from variance estimates to \(L^p\) estimates for even integers p.     

Most small $${\varvec{}}$$-grous have an automorhism of order 2

Let f(p, n) be the number of pairwise nonisomorphic p-groups of order \(p^n\), and let g(p, n) be the number of groups of order \(p^n\) whose automorphism group is a p-group. We prove that the limit, as p grows to infinity, of the ratio g(p, n) / f(p, n) equals 1/3 for \(n=6,7\).     

On the functional equation $${\varvec{f}}({\varvec{x}})+{\varvec{f}}({\varvec{y}})=\mathbf{max} \{{\varvec{f}}({\varvec{xy}}),{\varvec{f}}({\varvec{xy}}^{-{\varvec{1}}})\}$$ on groups

We analyse the functional equation

$$\begin{aligned} f(x)+f(y)=\max \{f(xy),f(xy^{-1})\} \end{aligned}$$

for a function \(f:G\rightarrow \mathbb R\) where G is a group. Without further assumption it characterises the absolute value of additive functions. In addition \(\{z\in G\mid f(z)=0\}\) is a normal subgroup of G with abelian factor group.

     

A note on the size of the set $$\varvec{A^2+A}$$

Let \(F(x,y,z)=xy+z\). We consider some properties of expansion of the polynomial F in different settings, namely in the integers and in prime fields. The main results concern the question of covering \(\{0,1,\ldots , N\}\) (resp. \(\mathbf {F}_p\)) by \(A^2+A\) with some thin sets A.     

On the 2-adic valuation of the cardinality of elliptic curves over finite extensions of $$\mathbb {F}_{\varvec{q}} $$

In this paper we study the difference between the 2-adic valuations of the cardinalities \( \# E( \mathbb {F}_{q^k} ) \) and \( \# E( \mathbb {F}_q ) \) of an elliptic curve E over \( \mathbb {F}_q \). We also deduce information about the structure of the 2-Sylow subgroup \( E[ 2^\infty ]( \mathbb {F}_{q^k} ) \) from the exponents of \( E[ 2^\infty ]( \mathbb {F}_q ) \).     

Rank two aCM bundles on general determinantal quartic surfaces in $${\mathbb {P}^{3}}$$

Let \(F\subseteq {\mathbb {P}^{3}}\) be a smooth determinantal quartic surface which is general in the Nöther–Lefschetz sense. In the present paper we give a complete classification of locally free sheaves \({\mathcal E}\) of rank 2 on F such that \(h^1(F,{\mathcal E}(th))=0\) for \(t\in \mathbb {Z}\).     

A characterization of the desarguesian and the Figueroa planes of order $$q^{3}$$

Let \(\Pi \) be a plane of order \(q^{3}\), \(q>2\), admitting \(G\cong PGL(3,q)\) as a collineation group. By Dempwolff (Geometriae Dedicata 18:101–112, 1985) the plane \(\Pi \) contains a G-invariant subplane \(\pi _{0}\) isomorphic to PG(2, q) on which G acts 2-transitively. In this paper it is shown that, if the homologies of \(\pi _{0}\) contained in G extend to \(\Pi \) then \(\Pi \) is either the desarguesian or the Figueroa plane.     

Subseries of $$ \mathrm{\mathcal{I}}$$-convergent series

We say that an ideal \( \mathrm{\mathcal{I}}\) has property (T) if for every \( \mathrm{\mathcal{I}}\)-convergent series \( {\sum}_{n=1}^{\infty }{x}_n \), there exists a set A ∈ \( \mathrm{\mathcal{I}}\) such that ∑_n?∈??\Ax _n converges in the usual sense. The main aim of this paper is to focus on several different classes of ideals, such as summable ideals, F _σ ideals, and matrix summability ideals, and to show that they do not have the mentioned property.     

Homotopy type of neighborhood complexes of Kneser graphs, $$\varvec{KG_{2,k}}$$

Schrijver (Nieuw Archief voor Wiskunde, 26(3) (1978) 454–461) identified a family of vertex critical subgraphs of the Kneser graphs called the stable Kneser graphs \(SG_{n,k}\). Björner and de Longueville (Combinatorica 23(1) (2003) 23–34) proved that the neighborhood complex of the stable Kneser graph \(SG_{n,k}\) is homotopy equivalent to a k-sphere. In this article, we prove that the homotopy type of the neighborhood complex of the Kneser graph \(KG_{2,k}\) is a wedge of \((k+4)(k+1)+1\) spheres of dimension k. We construct a maximal subgraph \(S_{2,k}\) of \(KG_{2,k}\), whose neighborhood complex is homotopy equivalent to the neighborhood complex of \(SG_{2,k}\). Further, we prove that the neighborhood complex of \(S_{2,k}\) deformation retracts onto the neighborhood complex of \(SG_{2,k}\).     

Map determined by rank-$$\varvec{}$$ matrice for relatively mall $$\varvec{}$$

Let n and s be integers such that \(1\le s<\frac{n}{2}\), and let \(M_n(\mathbb {K})\) be the ring of all \(n\times n\) matrices over a field \(\mathbb {K}\). Denote by \([\frac{n}{s}]\) the least integer m with \(m\ge \frac{n}{s}\). In this short note, it is proved that if \(g:M_n(\mathbb {K})\rightarrow M_n(\mathbb {K})\) is a map such that \(g\left( \sum _{i=1}^{[\frac{n}{s}]}A_i\right) =\sum _{i=1}^{[\frac{n}{s}]}g(A_i)\) holds for any \([\frac{n}{s}]\) rank-s matrices \(A_1,\ldots ,A_{[\frac{n}{s}]}\in M_n(\mathbb {K})\), then \(g(x)=f(x)+g(0)\), \(x\in M_n(\mathbb {K})\), for some additive map \(f:M_n(\mathbb {K})\rightarrow M_n(\mathbb {K})\). Particularly, g is additive if \(char\mathbb {K}\not \mid \left( [\frac{n}{s}]-1\right) \).     

On the sumsets of exceptional units in $$\mathbb {Z}_n$$

Let R be a commutative ring with \(1\in R\) and \(R^{*}\) be the multiplicative group of its units. In 1969, Nagell introduced the concept of an exceptional unit, namely a unit u such that \(1-u\) is also a unit. Let \({\mathbb {Z}}_n\) be the ring of residue classes modulo n. In this paper, given an integer \(k\ge 2\), we obtain an exact formula for the number of ways to represent each element of \( \mathbb {Z}_n\) as the sum of k exceptional units. This generalizes a recent result of J. W. Sander for the case \(k=2\).
