With a f-left-invariant Riemannian metric on a Lie group G, we mean a
Riemannian metric which is conformally equivalent to a left-invariant
Riemannian metric, with the conformal factor f. In this article, we study the
geometry of such m...

Group Theory
This is a collection of open problems in group theory proposed by hundreds of
mathematicians from all over the world. It has been published every 2--4 years
since 1965. This is the 20th edition, which contains 126 new problems and a
number ...

In this work, we develop a method to use Quantum- Dot Cellular Automata (QCA)
for universal quantum computing. This method is based conceptually on
refocusing in NMR systems. We show how an array of QCA cells can be used for
isolated single...

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology
This is the first in a series of papers, in which we compute the third-order
QCD corrections to top-antitop production near threshold in e+ e- collisions.
The present paper provides a detailed outline of the strategy of computation in
the f...

It is one of the main properties of uniformly hyperbolic dynamics that points
of two distinct trajectories cannot be uniformly close one to another. This
characteristics of hyperbolic dynamics is called expansivity. Hirsch, Pugh and

We prove a new symplectic analogue of Kashiwara's Equivalence from D-module
theory. As a consequence, we establish a structure theory for module categories
over deformation quantizations that mirrors, at a higher categorical level, the
Bial...
Well-posedness for a system of quadratic derivative nonlinear
Schr\"odinger equations with low regularity periodic initial data

Mathematics
Analysis of PDEs
We consider the Cauchy problem of a system of quadratic derivative nonlinear
Schr\"odinger equations which was introduced by M. Colin and T. Colin (2004) as
a model of laser-plasma interaction. For the nonperiodic case, the author
proved th...

This article challenges the assumption that journals and peer review are
essential for developing,evaluating and disseminating scientific and other
academic knowledge. It suggests a more flexible ecosystem, and examines some of

In 1955 B. Segre showed that any oval in a projective plane over a finite
field of odd order is a conic. His proof constructs a conic which matches the
oval in some points and tangents, and then shows that it actually coincides
with the ova...

Let K be a field of characteristic zero and let Sm/K be the category of
