A note on Sierpiński's problem related to triangular numbers

Maciej Ulas (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that the system of equations t x + t y = t p , t y + t z = t q , t x + t z = t r , where t x = x ( x + 1 ) / 2 is a triangular number, has infinitely many solutions in integers. Moreover, we show that this system has a rational three-parameter solution. Using this result we show that the system t x + t y = t p , t y + t z = t q , t x + t z = t r , t x + t y + t z = t s has infinitely many rational two-parameter solutions.

Composite rational functions expressible with few terms

Clemens Fuchs, Umberto Zannier (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider a rational function f which is ‘lacunary’ in the sense that it can be expressed as the ratio of two polynomials (not necessarily coprime) having each at most a given number of terms. Then we look at the possible decompositions f ( x ) = g ( h ( x ) ) , where g , h are rational functions of degree larger than 1. We prove that, apart from certain exceptional cases which we completely describe, the degree of g is bounded only in terms of (and we provide explicit bounds). This supports and quantifies...

Bounds on the denominators in the canonical bundle formula

Enrica Floris (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

In this work we study the moduli part in the canonical bundle formula of an lc-trivial fibration whose general fibre is a rational curve. If r is the Cartier index of the fibre, it was expected that 12 r would provide a bound on the denominators of the moduli part. Here we prove that such a bound cannot even be polynomial in r , we provide a bound N ( r ) and an example where the smallest integer that clears the denominators of the moduli part is N ( r ) / r . Moreover we prove that even locally the denominators...

Rational points on curves

Michael Stoll (2011)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

This is an extended version of an invited lecture I gave at the Journées Arithmétiques in St. Étienne in July 2009. We discuss the state of the art regarding the problem of finding the set of rational points on a (smooth projective) geometrically integral curve  C over  . The focus is on practical aspects of this problem in the case that the genus of  C is at least  2 , and therefore the set of rational points is finite.

Characteristic Exponents of Rational Functions

Anna Zdunik (2014)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider two characteristic exponents of a rational function f:ℂ̂ → ℂ̂ of degree d ≥ 2. The exponent χ a ( f ) is the average of log∥f’∥ with respect to the measure of maximal entropy. The exponent χ m ( f ) can be defined as the maximal characteristic exponent over all periodic orbits of f. We prove that χ a ( f ) = χ m ( f ) if and only if f(z) is conformally conjugate to z z ± d .

Moduli of smoothness of functions and their derivatives

Z. Ditzian, S. Tikhonov (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Relations between moduli of smoothness of the derivatives of a function and those of the function itself are investigated. The results are for L p ( T ) and L p [ - 1 , 1 ] for 0 < p < ∞ using the moduli of smoothness ω r ( f , t ) p and ω φ r ( f , t ) p respectively.

Real singular Del Pezzo surfaces and 3-folds fibred by rational curves, II

Fabrizio Catanese, Frédéric Mangolte (2009)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let W X be a real smooth projective 3-fold fibred by rational curves such that W ( ) is orientable. J. Kollár proved that a connected component N of W ( ) is essentially either Seifert fibred or a connected sum of lens spaces. Answering three questions of Kollár, we give sharp estimates on the number and the multiplicities of the Seifert fibres (resp. the number and the torsions of the lens spaces) when X is a geometrically rational surface. When N is Seifert fibred over a base orbifold F , our...

Manin’s and Peyre’s conjectures on rational points and adelic mixing

Alex Gorodnik, François Maucourant, Hee Oh (2008)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let X be the wonderful compactification of a connected adjoint semisimple group G defined over a number field K . We prove Manin’s conjecture on the asymptotic (as T ) of the number of K -rational points of X of height less than T , and give an explicit construction of a measure on X ( 𝔸 ) , generalizing Peyre’s measure, which describes the asymptotic distribution of the rational points 𝐆 ( K ) on X ( 𝔸 ) . Our approach is based on the mixing property of L 2 ( 𝐆 ( K ) 𝐆 ( 𝔸 ) ) which we obtain with a rate of convergence. ...

The KSBA compactification for the moduli space of degree two K 3 pairs

Radu Laza (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Inspired by the ideas of the minimal model program, Shepherd-Barron, Kollár, and Alexeev have constructed a geometric compactification for the moduli space of surfaces of log general type. In this paper, we discuss one of the simplest examples that fits into this framework: the case of pairs ( X , H ) consisting of a degree two K 3 surface X and an ample divisor H . Specifically, we construct and describe explicitly a geometric compactification P ¯ 2 for the moduli of degree two K 3 pairs. This compactification...

Varieties of minimal rational tangents of codimension 1

Jun-Muk Hwang (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let  X be a uniruled projective manifold and let  x be a general point. The main result of [2] says that if the ( - K X ) -degrees (i.e., the degrees with respect to the anti-canonical bundle of  X ) of all rational curves through x are at least dim X + 1 , then X is a projective space. In this paper, we study the structure of  X when the ( - K X ) -degrees of all rational curves through x are at least dim X . Our study uses the projective variety 𝒞 x T x ( X ) , called the VMRT at  x , defined as the union of tangent directions to the...

Springer fiber components in the two columns case for types A and D are normal

Nicolas Perrin, Evgeny Smirnov (2012)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We study the singularities of the irreducible components of the Springer fiber over a nilpotent element N with N 2 = 0 in a Lie algebra of type A or D (the so-called two columns case). We use Frobenius splitting techniques to prove that these irreducible components are normal, Cohen–Macaulay, and have rational singularities.

Multiple end solutions to the Allen-Cahn equation in 2

Michał Kowalczyk, Yong Liu, Frank Pacard (2013-2014)

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

Similarity:

An entire solution of the Allen-Cahn equation Δ u = f ( u ) , where f is an odd function and has exactly three zeros at ± 1 and 0 , e.g. f ( u ) = u ( u 2 - 1 ) , is called a 2 k end solution if its nodal set is asymptotic to 2 k half lines, and if along each of these half lines the function u looks (up to a multiplication by - 1 ) like the one dimensional, odd, heteroclinic solution H , of H ' ' = f ( H ) . In this paper we present some recent advances in the theory of the multiple end solutions. We begin with the description of the moduli space...
