Open Problems in Algebraic Combinatorics

In their preface, the editors describe algebraic combinatorics as the area of combinatorics concerned with exact, as opposed to approximate, results and which puts emphasis on interaction with other areas of mathematics, such as algebra, topology, geometry, and physics. It is a vibrant area, which saw several major developments in recent years. The goal of the 2022 conference Open Problems in Algebraic Combinatorics 2022 was to provide a forum for exchanging promising new directions and ideas. The current volume includes contributions coming from the talks at the conference, as well as a few other contributions written specifically for this volume. The articles cover the majority of topics in algebraic combinatorics with the aim of presenting recent important research results and also important open problems and conjectures encountered in this research. The editors hope that this book will facilitate the exchange of ideas in algebraic combinatorics.

Scattering Resonances for Several Small Convex Bodies and the Lax-Phillips Conjecture

This work deals with scattering by obstacles which are finite disjoint unions of strictly convex bodies with smooth boundaries in an odd dimensional Euclidean space. The class of obstacles of this type which is considered are contained in a given (large) ball and have some additional properties.

Ramanujan's Forty Identities for the Rogers-Ramanujan Functions

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes and his sidekick Dr. Watson go camping and pitch their tent under the stars. During the night, Holmes wakes his companion and says, ``Watson, look up at the stars and tell me what you deduce.'' Watson says, ``I see millions of stars, and it is quite likely that a few of them are planets just like Earth. Therefore there may also be life on these planets.'' Holmes replies, ``Watson, you idiot. Somebody stole ourtent.'' When seeking proofs of Ramanujan's identities for the Rogers-Ramanujan functions, Watson, i.e., G. N. Watson, was not an ``idiot.'' He, L. J. Rogers, and D. M. Bressoud found proofs for several of the identities...

Non-Doubling Ahlfors Measures, Perimeter Measures, and the Characterization of the Trace Spaces of Sobolev Functions in Carnot-Caratheodory Spaces

The object of the present study is to characterize the traces of the Sobolev functions in a sub-Riemannian, or Carnot-Caratheodory space. Such traces are defined in terms of suitable Besov spaces with respect to a measure which is concentrated on a lower dimensional manifold, and which satisfies an Ahlfors type condition with respect to the standard Lebesgue measure. We also study the extension problem for the relevant Besov spaces. Various concrete applications to the setting of Carnot groups are analyzed in detail and an application to the solvability of the subelliptic Neumann problem is presented.

Center Manifolds for Semilinear Equations with Non-Dense Domain and Applications to Hopf Bifurcation in Age Structured Models

Several types of differential equations, such as delay differential equations, age-structure models in population dynamics, evolution equations with boundary conditions, can be written as semilinear Cauchy problems with an operator which is not densely defined in its domain. The goal of this paper is to develop a center manifold theory for semilinear Cauchy problems with non-dense domain. Using Liapunov-Perron method and following the techniques of Vanderbauwhede et al. in treating infinite dimensional systems, the authors study the existence and smoothness of center manifolds for semilinear Cauchy problems with non-dense domain. As an application, they use the center manifold theorem to establish a Hopf bifurcation theorem for age structured models.

Definable Additive Categories: Purity and Model Theory

Most of the model theory of modules works, with only minor modifications, in much more general additive contexts (such as functor categories, categories of comodules, categories of sheaves). Furthermore, even within a given category of modules, many subcategories form a ``self-sufficient'' context in which the model theory may be developed without reference to the larger category of modules. The notion of a definable additive category covers all these contexts. The (imaginaries) language which one uses for model theory in a definable additive category can be obtained from the category (of structures and homomorphisms) itself, namely, as the category of those functors to the category of abelian groups which commute with products and direct limits. Dually, the objects of the definable category--the modules (or functors, or comodules, or sheaves)--to which that model theory applies may be recovered as the exact functors from the, small abelian, category (the category of pp-imaginaries) which underlies that language.

An Axiomatic Approach to Function Spaces, Spectral Synthesis, and Luzin Approximation

The authors define axiomatically a large class of function (or distribution) spaces on $N$-dimensional Euclidean space. The crucial property postulated is the validity of a vector-valued maximal inequality of Fefferman-Stein type. The scales of Besov spaces ($B$-spaces) and Lizorkin-Triebel spaces ($F$-spaces), and as a consequence also Sobolev spaces, and Bessel potential spaces, are included as special cases. The main results of Chapter 1 characterize our spaces by means of local approximations, higher differences, and atomic representations. In Chapters 2 and 3 these results are applied to prove pointwise differentiability outside exceptional sets of zero capacity, an approximation property known as spectral synthesis, a generalization of Whitney's ideal theorem, and approximation theorems of Luzin (Lusin) type.

A Geometric Mechanism for Diffusion in Hamiltonian Systems Overcoming the Large Gap Problem: Heuristics and Rigorous Verification on a Model

Beginning by introducing a geometric mechanism for diffusion in a priori unstable nearly integrable dynamical systems. This book is based on the observation that resonances, besides destroying the primary KAM tori, create secondary tori and tori of lower dimension. It argues that these objects created by resonances can be incorporated in transition chains taking the place of the destroyed primary KAM tori.The authors establish rigorously the existence of this mechanism in a simplemodel that has been studied before. The main technique is to develop a toolkit to study, in a unified way, tori of different topologies and their invariant manifolds, their intersections as well as shadowing propert...

Catching Cancer

Catching Cancer introduces readers to the investigators who created a medical revolution--a new way of looking at cancer and its causes. Featuring interviews with notable scientists such as Harald zur Hausen, Barry Marshall, Robin Warren, and others, the book tells the story of their struggles, their frustrations, and finally the breakthroughs that helped form some of the most profound changes in the way we view cancer. Claudia Cornwall takes readers inside the lab to reveal the long and winding path to discoveries that have changed and continue to alter the course of medical approaches to one of the most confounding diseases mankind has known. She tells the stories of families who have bene...
