We study conjugacy classes of germs of nonflat diffeomorphisms of the real line fixing the origin. Based on the work of Takens and Yoccoz, we establish results that are sharp in terms of differentiability classes and order of tangency to the identity. The core of all of this lies in the invariance of residues under low-regular conjugacies. This may be seen as an extension of the fact (also proved in this article) that the value of the Schwarzian derivative at the origin for germs of $C^3$ parabolic diffeomorphisms is invariant under $C^2$ parabolic conjugacy, though it may vary arbitrarily under parabolic $C^1$ conjugacy.
Noting a curious link between Andrews’ even-odd crank and the Stanley rank, we adopt a combinatorial approach building on the map of conjugation and continue the study of integer partitions with parts separated by parity. Our motivation is twofold. Firstly, we derive results for certain restricted partitions with even parts below odd parts. These include a Franklin-type involution proving a parametrized identity that generalizes Andrews’ bivariate generating function, and two families of Andrews–Beck type congruences. Secondly, we introduce several new subsets of partitions that are stable (i.e. invariant under conjugation) and explore their connections with three third-order mock theta functions $\omega (q)$, $\nu (q)$, and $\psi ^{(3)}(q)$, introduced by Ramanujan and Watson.
Let $n$ be an integer congruent to $0$ or $3$ modulo $4$. Under the assumption of the ABC conjecture, we prove that, given any integer $m$ fulfilling only a certain coprimeness condition, there exist infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields having an everywhere unramified Galois extension of group $A_n \times C_m$. The same result is obtained unconditionally in special cases.
In this paper, we present a sufficient condition for almost Yamabe solitons to have constant scalar curvature. Additionally, under some geometric scenarios, we provide some triviality and rigidity results for these structures.
This paper introduces a generalization of the $dd^c$-condition for complex manifolds. Like the $dd^c$-condition, it admits a diverse collection of characterizations, and is hereditary under various geometric constructions. Most notably, it is an open property with respect to small deformations. The condition is satisfied by a wide range of complex manifolds, including all compact complex surfaces, and all compact Vaisman manifolds. We show there are computable invariants of a real homotopy type which in many cases prohibit it from containing any complex manifold satisfying such $dd^c$-type conditions in low degrees. This gives rise to numerous examples of almost complex manifolds which cannot be homotopy equivalent to any of these complex manifolds.
We study the complexities of isometry and isomorphism classes of separable Banach spaces in the Polish spaces of Banach spaces, recently introduced and investigated by the authors in [14]. We obtain sharp results concerning the most classical separable Banach spaces.
We prove that the infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space is characterized as the unique separable infinite-dimensional Banach space whose isometry class is closed, and also as the unique separable infinite-dimensional Banach space whose isomorphism class is $F_\sigma $. For $p\in \left [1,2\right )\cup \left (2,\infty \right )$, we show that the isometry classes of $L_p[0,1]$ and $\ell _p$ are $G_\delta $-complete sets and $F_{\sigma \delta }$-complete sets, respectively. Then we show that the isometry class of $c_0$ is an $F_{\sigma \delta }$-complete set.
Additionally, we compute the complexities of many other natural classes of separable Banach spaces; for instance, the class of separable $\mathcal {L}_{p,\lambda +}$-spaces, for $p,\lambda \geq 1$, is shown to be a $G_\delta $-set, the class of superreflexive spaces is shown to be an $F_{\sigma \delta }$-set, and the class of spaces with local $\Pi $-basis structure is shown to be a $\boldsymbol {\Sigma }^0_6$-set. The paper is concluded with many open problems and suggestions for a future research.
The asymptotic mean value Laplacian—AMV Laplacian—extends the Laplace operator from $\mathbb {R}^n$ to metric measure spaces through limits of averaging integrals. The AMV Laplacian is however not a symmetric operator in general. Therefore, we consider a symmetric version of the AMV Laplacian, and focus lies on when the symmetric and non-symmetric AMV Laplacians coincide. Besides Riemannian and 3D contact sub-Riemannian manifolds, we show that they are identical on a large class of metric measure spaces, including locally Ahlfors regular spaces with suitably vanishing distortion. In addition, we study the context of weighted domains of $\mathbb {R}^n$—where the two operators typically differ—and provide explicit formulae for these operators, including points where the weight vanishes.
We establish higher moment formulae for Siegel transforms on the space of affine unimodular lattices as well as on certain congruence quotients of $\mathrm {SL}_d({\mathbb {R}})$. As applications, we prove functional central limit theorems for lattice point counting for affine and congruence lattices using the method of moments.
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a locally noetherian Grothendieck category. We classify all full subcategories of $\mathcal{A}$ which are thick and closed under taking arbitrary direct sums and injective envelopes by injective spectrum. This result gives a generalization from the commutative noetherian ring to the locally noetherian Grothendieck category.
We study spaces of continuous functions and sections with domain a paracompact Hausdorff k-space $X$ and range a nilpotent CW complex $Y$, with emphasis on localization at a set of primes. For $\mathop {\rm map}\nolimits _\phi (X,\,Y)$, the space of maps with prescribed restriction $\phi$ on a suitable subspace $A\subset X$, we construct a natural spectral sequence of groups that converges to $\pi _*(\mathop {\rm map}\nolimits _\phi (X,\,Y))$ and allows for detection of localization on the level of $E^2$. Our applications extend and unify the previously known results.
We investigate the groups of units of one-relator and special inverse monoids. These are inverse monoids which are defined by presentations, where all the defining relations are of the form $r=1$. We develop new approaches for finding presentations for the group of units of a special inverse monoid, and apply these methods to give conditions under which the group admits a presentation with the same number of defining relations as the monoid. In particular, our results give sufficient conditions for the group of units of a one-relator inverse monoid to be a one-relator group. When these conditions are satisfied, these results give inverse semigroup theoretic analogues of classical results of Adjan for one-relator monoids, and Makanin for special monoids. In contrast, we show that in general these classical results do not hold for one-relator and special inverse monoids. In particular, we show that there exists a one-relator special inverse monoid whose group of units is not a one-relator group (with respect to any generating set), and we show that there exists a finitely presented special inverse monoid whose group of units is not finitely presented.
