Remarks on regular (LF)-spaces

Developing ideas found in a recent paper of Gilsdorf to arbitrary topological vector spaces (tvs) one shows that a Hausdorff (LB) _tv -spaceE is regular provided every null-sequence inE has a series convergent subsequence inE.

Generalized bisymmetry on a restricted domain

Let X ⊂ ℝ be an interval of positive length and define the set Δ = {(x, y) ∈ X × X | x ≧ y}. We give the solution of the equation

Darboux integrability of real polynomial vector fields on regular algebraic hypersurfaces

In this paper we extend the Darboux theory of integrability in ℝ ⁿ to the regular algebraic hypersurfaces. Then we apply the extended theory first to the 3-dimensional generalized cylinders ×ℝ^3−r of ℝ⁴ forr=0, 1, 2, 3; and after to then-dimensional sphere of ℝ ⁿ⁺¹.     

Polytopes passing through circles

Suppose a convex body wants to pass through a circular hole in a wall. Does its ability to do so depend on the thickness of the wall? In fact in most cases it does, and in this paper we present a sufficient criterion for a polytope to allow an affirmative answer to the question.     

The operad of finite labeled tournaments

We study the operad of finite labeled tournaments. We describe the structure of suboperads of this operad generated by simple tournaments. We prove that a suboperad generated by a tournament with two vertices (i.e., the operad of finite linearly ordered sets) is isomorphic to the operad of symmetric groups, and a suboperad generated by a simple tournament with more that two vertices is isomorphic to the quotient operad of the free operad with respect to a certain congruence. We obtain this congruence explicitly.     

Collapsing monoids consisting of permutations and constants

In this paper we determine all collapsing transformation monoids that contain at least one unary constant operation and whose nonconstant operations are permutations. Furthermore, we find an infinite family of transformation monoids that consist of at least three unary constant operations and some permutations for which the corresponding monoidal intervals are 2-element chains.

A certain boundary-value problem with shifts in a four-dimensional space

We consider a problem with shifts in boundary conditions for the Bianchi equation in a four-dimensional space. We establish sufficient conditions which allow one to evaluate its unique solution in terms of the Riemann function.     

A note on holomorphic approximation in Banach spaces

Given a complex Banach space X and a holomorphic function f on its unit ball B, we discuss the problem whether f can be approximated, uniformly on smaller balls, by functions g holomorphic on all of X. Research partially supported by NSF grant DMS0700281.     

On continuation of a topology from a system of generators of a group to a topology on the group

In this paper we establish conditions under which a topology is continued from a subset of a group to a topology on the group coordinated with the group operation.     

An application of index forms in cryptography

We investigate the possibility of using index forms as basic ingredients of cryptographically important functions. We suggest the use of a hash function based on index forms and we prove some important properties of the suggested function. The research was supported in part by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, by grants T048791 and K67580 of the Hungarian NFSR, by the National Office for Research and Technology and by the grant JP-26/2006.     

On a pythagorean-type functional equation with exponent 3 involving finite fields

We solve the functional equationf(x ³ +y ³) =f(x)³ +f(y)³ for maps of a finite field into itself.     

Large Toeplitz Systems with Quasi-polynomial Right-hand Sides

We consider the asymptotics of the solutions of large linear systems with Toeplitz matrices generated by a complex valued symbol which is infinitely differentiable, has no zeros on the unit circle, and whose winding number about the origin is zero. The emphasis is on quasi-polynomials as right-hand sides, in which case we show that the central fragment of the solution is asymptotically also a quasi-polynomial. Moreover, we establish asymptotic formulas that give specific components of the solution independently of the other components. We are greatly indebted to the referees for suggesting substantial simplifications in our original proofs and the constructive advice which helped to improve the exposition.     

On the maximum number of points at least one unit away from each other in the unit <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-cube

We present a very short survey of known results and many new estimates and results on the maximum number of points that can be chosen in the n-dimensional unit cube so that every distance between them is at least 1. Research was supported by Slovak national grant VEGA 1/3839/06.     

Integral representation of velocity in a flow with separation simulated by a vortex sheet

The goal of this paper is to present a new integral operator that defines the velocity of a streamline flow in terms of the intensity of a free vortex sheet. This operator is important for numerical simulation of flows.     

On the strong approximation by matrix means in the generalized Hölder metric

We extend the Leindler’s type estimate to the strong approximation in the Hölder norm. Under weaker assumptions we improve the results of Xie Tingfan and Sun Xiehua.     

On a convex body with odd hadwiger number

We construct a convex body K ⊃ ℝ³ such that the maximum number of mutually nonoverlapping translates of K which touch K is 15. The work is in part supported by grant no. T043556 of the Hungarian National Science Foundation (OTKA).     

Lattices of semigroup varieties

We survey a great number of results obtained during four decades of investigations on lattices of semigroup varieties and formulate several open problems.
