In this note we generalise some of the work of Klarner on free semigroups of affine maps acting on the real line by using a classical approach from geometric group theory (the Ping-Pong lemma). We also investigate the boundaries within which Klarners necessary condition for a semigroup to be related is applicable.
This article addresses the regularity issue for minimizing fractional harmonic maps of order $sin(0,1/2)$ from an interval into a smooth manifold. Holder continuity away from a locally finite set is established for a general target. If the target is the standard sphere, then Holder continuity holds everywhere.
We extend the Altmann-Hausen presentation of normal affine algebraic C-varieties endowed with effective torus actions to the real setting. In particular, we focus on actions of quasi-split real tori, in which case we obtain a simpler presentation.
Recently, Adiceam, Beresnevich, Levesley, Velani and Zorin proved a quantitative version of the convergence case of the Khintchine-Groshev theorem for nondegenerate manifolds, motivated by applications to interference alignment. In the present paper, we obtain analogues of their results for affine subspaces.
In this paper, we provide an effective method to compute the topological entropies of $G$-subshifts of finite type ($G$-SFTs) with $G=F_{d}$ and $S_{d}$, the free group and free semigroup with $d$ generators respectively. We develop the entropy formula by analyzing the corresponding systems of nonlinear recursive equations (SNREs). Four types of SNREs of $S_{2}$-SFTs, namely the types $mathbf{E},mathbf{D},mathbf{C}$ and $mathbf{O}$, are introduced and we could compute their entropies explicitly. This enables us to give the complete characterization of $S_{2}$-SFTs on two symbols. That is, the set of entropies of $S_{2}$-SFTs on two symbols is equal to $mathbf{E}cup mathbf{D}cup mathbf{C}cup mathbf{O}$. The methods developed in $S_{d}$-SFTs will also be applied to the study of the entropy theory of $F_{d}$-SFTs. The entropy formulae of $S_{d}$-, $F_{d}$-golden mean shifts and $k$-colored chessboards are also presented herein.
We compute equations for real multiplication on the divisor classes of genus two curves via algebraic correspondences. We do so by implementing van Wamelens method for computing equations for endomorphisms of Jacobians on examples drawn from the algebraic models for Hilbert modular surfaces computed by Elkies and Kumar. We also compute a correspondence over the universal family for the Hilbert modular surface of discriminant 5 and use our equations to prove a conjecture of A.
