Let $𝒜={\left\{A_t\right\}}_{t\in G}$ and $ℬ={\left\{B_t\right\}}_{t\in G}$ be $C^{*}$-algebraic bundles over a finite group $G$. Let $C={⨁}_{t\in G}{A}_t$ and $D={⨁}_{t\in G}{B}_t$. Also, let $A=A_e$ and $B=B_e$, where $e$ is the unit element in $G$. We suppose that $C$ and $D$ are unital and $A$ and $B$ have the unit elements in $C$ and $D$, respectively. In this paper, we show that if there is an equivalence $𝒜-ℬ$-bundle over $G$ with some properties, then the unital inclusions of unital $C^{*}$-algebras $A\subset C$ and $B\subset D$ induced by $𝒜$ and $ℬ$ are strongly Morita equivalent. Also, we suppose that $𝒜$ and $ℬ$ are saturated and that $A^{\text{'}}\cap C=𝐂1$. We show that...

Given d ≥ 2 consider the family of polynomials $P_c\left(z\right)=z^d+c$ for c ∈ ℂ. Denote by $J_c$ the Julia set of $P_c$ and let ${ℳ}_d=c|J_{c}isconnected$ be the connectedness locus; for d = 2 it is called the Mandelbrot set. We study semihyperbolic parameters $c₀\in \partial {ℳ}_d$: those for which the critical point 0 is not recurrent by $P_{c₀}$ and without parabolic cycles. The Hausdorff dimension of $J_c$, denoted by $HD\left(J_c\right)$, does not depend continuously on c at such $c₀\in \partial {ℳ}_d$; on the other hand the function $c\mapsto HD\left(J_c\right)$ is analytic in $ℂ-{ℳ}_d$. Our first result asserts that there is still some...

Let ${ℱ}_h^i(k,n)$ be the $i$-th ordered configuration space of all distinct points $H_1,...,H_h$ in the Grassmannian $Gr(k,n)$ of $k$-dimensional subspaces of ${ℂ}^n$, whose sum is a subspace of dimension $i$. We prove that ${ℱ}_h^i(k,n)$ is (when non empty) a complex submanifold of $Gr{(k,n)}^h$ of dimension $i(n-i)+hk(i-k)$ and its fundamental group is trivial if $i=min(n,hk)$, $hk\ne n$ and $n\>2$ and equal to the braid group of the sphere $ℂ$ $P^1$ if $n=2$. Eventually we compute the fundamental group in the special case of hyperplane arrangements, i.e. $k=n-1$.

Let $D$ be a ${𝒞}^d$ $q$-convex intersection, $d\ge 2$, $0\le q\le n-1$, in a complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$, $n\ge 2$, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $N$ over $X$. In this paper, ${𝒞}^k$-estimates, $k=2,3,\cdots ,\infty$, for solutions to the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for $E$-valued $(0,s)$-forms on $D$ when $n-q\le s\le n$. In addition, we solve the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with a support condition in ${𝒞}^k$-spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a $\overline{\partial }$-closed form $f$ in ${𝒞}_{0,q}^k(X\setminus D,E)$, $1\le q\le n-2$, $n\ge 3$, with compact support and for $\epsilon$ with $0<\epsilon <1$ there...

In this paper we prove the following theorems in incidence geometry. 1. There is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le n^{(1+\delta )/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$ are collinear. If the number of the distinct lines is $<c{n}^{1/2}$ then the cross ratio of the four points is algebraic. 2. Given $c>0$, there is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,P_2,P_3\in {ℂ}^2$ noncollinear, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le c{n}^{1/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then for any $P\in {ℂ}^2\setminus \{P_1,P_2,P_3\}$, we have $\delta n$ distinct lines between $P$ and $Q_j$. 3. Given...

Let $M$ be an $m$-dimensional manifold and $A={𝔻}_k^r/I=ℝ\oplus N_A$ a Weil algebra of height $r$. We prove that any $A$-covelocity $T_x^{A}f\in T_x^{A*}M$, $x\in M$ is determined by its values over arbitrary $max\{\mathrm{width}A,m\}$ regular and under the first jet projection linearly independent elements of $T_x^{A}M$. Further, we prove the rigidity of the so-called universally reparametrizable Weil algebras. Applying essentially those partial results we give the proof of the general rigidity result $T^{A*}M\simeq T^{r*}M$ without coordinate computations, which improves and generalizes the partial...

For an integer $k\ge 2$, let ${\left(n\right)}_n$ be the $k-$generalized Pell sequence which starts with $0,...,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is given by the linear recurrence $n=2n-1+n-2+\cdots +n-k$. In this paper, we find all $k$-generalized Pell numbers with only one distinct digit (the so-called repdigits). Some interesting estimations involving generalized Pell numbers, that we believe are of independent interest, are also deduced. This paper continues a previous work that searched for repdigits in the usual Pell sequence ${\left(P_n^{\left(2\right)}\right)}_n$. ...

If the space $𝒬$ of quadratic forms in ${ℝ}^n$ is splitted in a direct sum ${𝒬}_1\oplus ...\oplus {𝒬}_k$ and if $X$ and $Y$ are independent random variables of ${ℝ}^n$, assume that there exist a real number $a$ such that $E\left(X\right|X+Y)=a(X+Y)$ and real distinct numbers $b_1,...,b_k$ such that $E\left(q\left(X\right)\right|X+Y)=b_{i}q(X+Y)$ for any $q$ in ${𝒬}_i.$ We prove that this happens only when $k=2$, when ${ℝ}^n$ can be structured in a Euclidean Jordan algebra and when $X$ and $Y$ have Wishart distributions corresponding to this structure.

We describe all ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $D:Q_{proj-proj}^{\tau }⇝Q{T}^{*}$ transforming projectable-projectable classical torsion-free linear connections $\nabla$ on fibred-fibred manifolds $Y$ into classical linear connections $D\left(\nabla \right)$ on cotangent bundles $T^{*}Y$ of $Y$. We show that this problem can be reduced to finding ${ℱ}^2{ℳ}_{m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2}$-natural operators $D:Q_{proj-proj}^{\tau }⇝(T^{*},{\otimes }^p{T}^{*}\otimes {\otimes }^{q}T)$ for $p=2$, $q=1$ and $p=3$, $q=0$.
