Minima of decomposable forms of degree n in n variables for n ≥ 3

The following theorem is proved: if for all (X0)one has ¦ F(x) ¦ >0, where F(x) is a decomposable form of degree n of n variables, then, for n 3, F(x) is proportional to an integral form.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

The Generalized Center-Weak Saddle of General Homogeneous System of Degree n

In this paper,a problem of center-weak focus of a homogeneous system of degree n is transformed into a problem of generalized center-weak saddle. It provides formulae for the saddle values of the first (4-(-1)n)m orders in such a system,where m=n-1 if n is an even number and m=(n-1)/2 if n is an odd number.     

Flat deformations of ℙ n

In this paper we study projective flat deformations of ? ⁿ . We prove that the singular fibers of a projective flat deformation of ? ⁿ appear either in codimension 1 or over singular points of the base. We also describe projective flat deformations of ? ⁿ with smooth total space, and discuss flatness criteria.     

Balanced path decomposition of λ K n,n and λ K n,n *

Let P _k denote a path with k edges and λ K _n,n denote the λ-fold complete bipartite graph with both parts of size n. In this paper, we obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for λ K _n,n to have a balanced P _k -decomposition. We also obtain the directed version of this result.     

Rigid Sets of Dimension n – 1 in ℝ n

We give conditions allowing an intrinsic isometry on a dense subset to be extended to an isometry of the whole set. This enables us to find examples of (n-1)-dimensional sets rigid in ⁿ .     

Global Behavior of Solutions of x n + 1 = max {x n , A}/x n x n – 1

We investigate the asymptotic behavior, the oscillatory character, and theperiodic nature of solutions of the difference equation

SO(n)-Invariant Special Lagrangian Submanifolds of C~(n 1) with Fixed Loci

Let SO(n) act in the standard way on Cn and extend this action in the usual way to Cn 1 =C Cn. It is shown that a nonsingular special Lagrangian submanifold L (?) Cn 1 that is invariant under this SO(n)-action intersects the fixed C (?) Cn 1 in a nonsingular real-analytic arc A (which may be empty). If n > 2, then A has no compact component. Conversely, an embedded, noncompact nonsingular real-analytic arc A(?)C lies in an embedded nonsingular special Lagrangian submanifold that is SO(n)-invariant. The same existence result holds for compact A if n = 2. If A is connected, there exist n distinct nonsingular SO(n)-invariant special Lagrangian extensions of A such that any embedded nonsingular SO(n)-invariant special Lagrangian extension of A agrees with one of these n extensions in some open neighborhood of A. The method employed is an analysis of a singular nonlinear pde and ultimately calls on the work of Gerard and Tahara to prove the existence of the extension.

A family of à n -groups

For each integern≥2 and for each prime powerq, we exhibit a group Γ which acts simply transitively on the set of vertices of the building of type à _n associated with the local field $\mathbb{F}^q ((Y))$ . This generalizes work in [2] and [8] (wheren=2) and in [1] (wheren≤4).     

About the Cohomology of the Lie Superalgebra of Vector Fields on ℝ n|n

In this article, we compute the first space of cohomology of Vect (? ^n|n ), the Lie superalgebra of vector fields on the supermanifold ? ^n|n with coefficients in 𝒻 (? ^n|n ), the space of smooth functions on ? ^n|n . We give a super analog of the cohomologies of vector fields that where studied for instance by Fuchs [2 Fuchs , D. B. ( 1986 ). Cohomology of Infinite Dimensional Lie Algebras . New York : Consultants Bureau . [Google Scholar]]. This work allows us to classify the deformations of the action of Vect(? ^n|n ) on 𝒻 (? ^n|n ).     

On the (n − 2)-transversals of n convex subsets of the plane

In this paper we consider families of distinct ovals in the plane, with the property that certain subfamilies have stabbing lines (transversals). Our main result says that if any k member of the family can be stabbed by a line avoiding all the other ovals and k is large enough, then the family consists of at most k+1 ovals. For any n4 we show a family of n ovals, whose n–2 element subfamilies have, but the n–1 element subfamilies do not have, transversals.     

Total Chromatic Number of the Join of K_(m,n) and C_n

The total chromatic number XT(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of colors needed to color the elements (vertices and edges) of G such that no adjacent or incident pair of elements receive the same color. G is called Type 1 if XT(G)=Δ(G) 1. In this paper we prove that the join of a complete bipartite graph Km,n and a cycle Cn is of Type 1.     

The local rank of an ergodic symmetric power T ⊙n does not exceed n!n −n

The infinity of the rank of ergodic symmetric powers of automorphisms of the Lebesgue space is proved, and sharp upper bounds for their local rank are found.
