A Cliffed Cape Does Not Trap Water Waves in the Sea of Constant Depth

The water wave problem is considered for a class of semi-infinite domains each having its shore shaped as a cliffed cape. In particular, the free surface of a water domain is supposed to be an infinite sector whose vertex angle is greater than π, whereas the water layer lying under the free surface is of constant depth. Under these assumptions it is shown that there are no trapped mode solutions of the problem for all values of a non-dimensional spectral parameter; in other words, no point eigenvalues are embedded in the continuous spectrum of the problem.

On the Decomposition of a 3-Connected Graph into Cyclically 4-Edge-Connected Components

A graph is called cyclically 4-edge-connected if removing any three edges from it results in a graph in which at most one connected component contains a cycle. A 3-connected graph is 4-edge-connected if and only if removing any three edges from it results in either a connected graph or a graph with exactly two connected components one of which is a single-vertex one. We show how to associate with any 3-connected graph a tree of components such that every component is a 3-connected and cyclically 4-edge-connected graph.

Systems with Parameters, or Efficiently Solving Systems of Polynomial Equations: 33 Years Later. I

Consider a system of polynomial equations with parametric coefficients over an arbitrary ground field. We show that the variety of parameters can be represented as a union of strata. For values of parameters from each stratum, the solutions of the system are given by algebraic formulas depending only on this stratum. Each stratum is a quasiprojective algebraic variety with degree bounded from above by a subexponential function in the size of the input data. Also, the number of strata is subexponential in the size of the input data. Thus, here we avoid double exponential upper bounds on the degrees and solve a long-standing problem.

Regularity of a Boundary Point for the p(x)-Laplacian

We study the behavior of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the p(x)-Laplacian with a continuous boundary function. We prove the existence of a weak solution under the assumption that p is separated from 1 and ∞. We present a necessary and sufficient Wiener type condition for regularity of a boundary point provided that the exponent p has the logarithmic modulus of continuity at this point.

Double Cosets of Stabilizers of Totally Isotropic Subspaces in a Special Unitary Group. I

Let D be a division algebra with a fixed involution, and let V be the corresponding unitary space over D with T -condition (see N. Bourbaki, Algèbre). For a pair of totally isotropic subspaces u, v ≤ V, the double cosets P{sub u}γP{sub v} of their stabilizers P{sub u}, P{sub v} in Γ = SU(V ) are considered. A description of the cosets P{sub u}γP{sub v} in terms of the intersection distance d{sub in}(u, γ(v)) and the Witt index of u + γ(v) is given.

On the Ultrasolvability of p-Extensions of an Abelian Group by a Cyclic Kernel

The paper contains a solution of A. V. Yakovlev’s problem in the embedding theory for p-extensions of odd order with a cyclic normal subgroup and an Abelian quotient group: for such nonsplit extensions there exists a realization for the quotient group as a Galois group over number fields such that the corresponding embedding problem is ultrasolvable (i.e., this embedding problem is solvable and has only fields as solutions). A solution for embedding problems of p-extensions of odd order with kernel of order p and with a quotient group that is represented by a direct product of its proper subgroups is also given – this is a generalization for p > 2 of an analogous result for p = 2 due to A. Ledet.

On the Ultrasolvability of Some Classes of Minimal Nonsplit p-Extensions with Cyclic Kernel for p > 2

For any nonsplit p > 2-extension of finite groups with a cyclic kernel and a quotient group with two generators all the accompanying extensions of which split, there exists a realization of the quotient group as a Galois group of number fields such that the corresponding embedding problem is ultrasolvable (i.e., this embedding problem is solvable and has only fields as solutions).

On the Depth of k-Valued Logic Functions Over Arbitrary Bases

The behavior of the Shannon function of the depth of k-valued logic functions realized by circuits over an arbitrary complete basis is examined. For all k, k ≥ 3, for an arbitrary basis of k-valued logic functions, the existence of the asymptotic behavior of the Shannon function of the depth is established. The asymptotic behavior is linear for finite bases and it is constant or logarithmic for infinite bases. Thus, the complete picture of asymptotic behavior of the Shannon function of the depth is obtained for all k, k ≥ 2.

Nonclassical Birational Models for Spec ℚ

Generalized subrings of the ring of integers that give birational models for the field of rationals are studied. A homogeneous strengthening of Evdokimov’s theorem is proved. An approach to calculation of homotopy groups with the help of generalized rings is proposed.

On an Equivalent Norm on the Space BMO

We extend the inequality proved by S. V. Bochkarev to a larger class of convolution operators assuming that the Fourier transforms of the kernels of these operators satisfy certain conditions in the spirit of the Hörmander–Mikhlin multiplier theorem. Therefore, we give a new characterization of BMO.

Interaction of Elastic and Scalar Fields

In this work, we consider the problem of interaction of elastic body with scalar field. The general solution of a uniform system of equations (of elasticity theory) for the static case is solved by using the Papkovich representation method. The contact problem is solved by using a special boundary-contact condition, in the case where the contact surface is a stretched spheroid. The uniqueness theorem for the solution is also proved. Solutions are obtained in the form of absolutely and uniformly convergent series.

Games with Ordered Outcomes

We present a brief review of the most important concepts and results concerning games in which the goal structure is formalized by binary relations called preference relations. The main part of the work is devoted to games with ordered outcomes, i.e., game-theoretic models in which preference relations of players are given by partial orders on the set of outcomes. We discuss both antagonistic games and n-person games with ordered outcomes. Optimal solutions in games with ordered outcomes are strategies of players, situations, or outcomes of the game. In the paper, we consider noncooperative and certain cooperative solutions. Special attention is paid to an extension of the order on the set of probabilistic measures since this question is substantial for constructing the mixed extension of the game with ordered outcomes. The review covers works published from 1953 until now.

Physical Interpretation of Strict Solutions of Diffraction Problems by Heuristic Relations

We propose a new approach to construct heuristic relations describing solutions of diffraction problems. Those relations are based on physical principles and allow one to interpret mathematically strict solutions. Since the heuristic relations possess high performance and accuracy, they can also be used along with any strict approach or experimental results for a significant improvement of efficiency of solutions of practical problems related to applications of the diffraction theory.
