We compute the transgressed forms of some modularly invariant characteristic forms, which are related to the twisted elliptic genera. We study the modularity properties of these secondary characteristic forms and relations among them. We also get some twisted anomaly cancellation formulas on some odd dimensional manifolds. Subj.

We study the problem of optimizing over parameters a particular real root of a polynomial with parametric coefficients. We propose an efficient symbolic method for solving the optimization problem based on a special cylindrical algebraic decomposition algorithm, which asks for a semi-algebraic decomposition into cells in terms of Number-of-Roots-invariant.

The present paper is an exposition on heights and their importance in the modern study of algebraic dynamics. We will explain the idea of canonical height and its surprising relation to algebraic dynamics, invariant measures, arithmetic intersection theory, equidistribution and p-adic analytic geometry.

We construct a diffeomorphism invariant (Colombeau-type) differential algebra canonically containing the space of distributions in the sense of L. Schwartz. Employing differential calculus in infinite dimensional (convenient) vector spaces, previous attempts in this direction are unified and completed. Several classification results are achieved and applications to nonlinear differential equati...

In this paper, we study various properties of analytic extensions of class A operators. In particular, we show that every analytic extension of a class A operator has a scalar extension. As a corollary, we get that such an operator with rich spectrum has a nontrivial invariant subspace. Mathematics subject classification (2010): Primary 47A11, Secondary 47A15, 47B20.

For the circular restricted three-body problem of celestial mechanics with small secondary mass, we prove the existence of uniformly hyperbolic invariant sets of non-planar periodic and chaotic almost collision orbits. Poincaré conjectured existence of periodic ones and gave them the name “second species solutions”. We obtain large subshifts of finite type containing solutions of this type.

We study generalized group actions on differentiable manifolds in the Colombeau framework, extending previous work on flows of generalized vector fields and symmetry group analysis of generalized solutions. As an application, we analyze group invariant generalized functions in this setting. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): Primary: 46F30; secondary: 46T30, 35A30, 58E40

A ring $R$ with an automorphism $sigma$ and a $sigma$-derivation $delta$ is called $delta$-quasi-Baer (resp., $sigma$-invariant quasi-Baer) if the right annihilator of every $delta$-ideal (resp., $sigma$-invariant ideal) of $R$ is generated by an idempotent, as a right ideal. In this paper, we study Baer and quasi-Baer properties of skew PBW extensions. More exactly, let $A=sigma(R)leftlangle x...

Canonical dimension is an integral-valued invariant of algebraic structures. We are mostly interested in understanding the canonical dimension of projective homogeneous varieties under semisimple affine algebraic groups over arbitrary fields. Known methods, results, applications, and open problems are reviewed, some new ones are provided. Mathematics Subject Classification (2010). Primary 14L17...

We consider non-elementary Kleinian groups Γ without invariant plane generated by an elliptic and a hyperbolic elements with their axes lying in one plane. We find presentations and a complete list of orbifolds uniformized by such Γ. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): Primary: 30F40; Secondary: 22E40, 57M12, 57M50.
