We prove that, when 𝑛 goes to infinity, Kostant’s problem has negative answer for almost all simple highest weight modules in the principal block of the BGG category O for the Lie algebra sl𝑛(ℂ).

Recent results have provided important functional generalizations, extensions and improvements of the Hardy and Levinson integral inequalities. However, they require some assumptions on the main functions, such as monotonicity or convexity assumptions, which remain somewhat restrictive. In this article, we propose two new ideas of functional generalizations, one based on a series expansion approach and the other on an integral approach. Both achieve the goal of offering adaptable generalizations and extensions of the Hardy and Levinson integral inequalities. They are formulated in two different general theorems, which are proved in detail. Several examples of new integral inequalities are derived.

Let {𝐿𝑛}≥0 be the sequence of Lucas numbers. In this paper, we determine all Lucas numbers that are palindromic concatenations of two distinct repdigits.

The Erdős Matching Conjecture states that the maximum size 𝑓 (𝑛, 𝑘, 𝑠) of a family F n k that does not contain 𝑠 pairwise disjoint sets is max. A k , s , B n , k , s , where A k , s = s k 1 k and B n , k , s = B n k : B s 1 . The case 𝑠 = 2 is simply the Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem on intersecting families and is well understood. The case 𝑛 = 𝑠𝑘 was settled by Kleitman and the uniqueness of the extremal construction was obtained by Frankl. Most results in this area show that if 𝑘, 𝑠 are fixed and 𝑛 is large enough, then the conjecture holds true. Exceptions are due to Frankl who proved the conjecture and considered variants for 𝑛 ∈ [𝑠𝑘, 𝑠𝑘 + 𝑐𝑠,𝑘 ] if 𝑠 is large enough compared to 𝑘. A recent manuscript by Guo and Lu considers non-trivial families with matching number at most 𝑠 in a similar range of parameters.

In this short note, we are concerned with the case 𝑠 ≥ 3 fixed, 𝑘 tending to infinity and 𝑛 ∈ {𝑠𝑘, 𝑠𝑘 + 1}. For 𝑛 = 𝑠𝑘, we show the stability of the unique extremal construction of size s k 1 k = s 1 s s k k with respect to minimal degree. As a consequence we derive lim k f s k + 1 , k , s s k + 1 k < s 1 s ε s for some positive constant 𝜀𝑠 which depends only on 𝑠.

We study the property of Kelley and the property of Kelley weakly on Hausdorff continua. We extend results known for metric continua to the class of Hausdorff continua. We also present new results about these properties.

The aim of this paper is to study the interrelationship between various forms of (F, G)-shadowing property and represent it through the diagram. We show that asymptotic shadowing is equivalent to (ℕ0, F 𝑐𝑓 )-shadowing property and that (ℕ0, F 𝑐𝑓 )-shadowing implies (F 𝑐𝑓 , F 𝑐𝑓 )-shadowing. Necessary examples are discussed to support the diagram. We also give characterization for maps to have the (F, G)-shadowing property through the shift map on the inverse limit space. Further, we relate the (F, G)-shadowing property to the positively F 𝑠-expansive map. Also, we obtain the necessary and sufficient condition for the identity map to have (ℕ0, F 𝑡)-shadowing property.

In this article, we present new results on specific cases of a general Young integral inequality established by Páles in 1990. Our initial focus is on a bivariate function, defined as the product of two univariate and separable functions. Based on this, some new results are established, including particular Young integral-type inequalities and some upper bounds on the corresponding absolute errors. The precise role of the functions involved in this context is investigated. Several applications are presented, including one in the field of probability theory. We also introduce and study reverse variants of our inequalities. Another important contribution is to link the setting of the general Young integral inequality established by Páles to a probabilistic framework called copula theory. We show that this theory provides a wide range of functions, often dependent on adjustable parameters, that can be effectively applied to this inequality. Some illustrative graphics are provided. Overall, this article broadens the scope of bivariate inequalities and can serve related purposes in analysis, probability and statistics, among others.

In this work we single out a scheduling problem in which tasks are coupled and the time delay between the first and second members of the couple is fixed by technological constraints. We will show that this scheduling problem can be reduced to the question to decide if a tactically constructed 𝑘-partite auxiliary graph contains a 𝑘-clique. We will point out that before submitting the auxiliary graph to a clique solver it is expedient to carry out various inspections in order to delete nodes and edges of the graph and consequently speed up the computations. In the lack of theoretical tools we will carry out numerical experiments to test the practicality of the clique approach.

In this paper, we define the discretized Voros–Li coefficients associated to the zeta function on function fields of genus 𝑔 over a finite fields 𝔽𝑞. Furthermore, we give a finite sum representation, an integral formula and an asymptotic formula for these coefficients.

In this article, we use the idea of “negation” to construct new unit distributions, i.e., continuous distributions with support equal to the unit interval [0, 1]. A notable feature of these distributions is that they have opposite shape properties to the unit distributions from which they are derived; “opposite” in the sense that, from a graphical point of view, a certain horizontal symmetry is operated. We then examine the main properties of these negation-type distributions, including distributional functions, moments, and entropy measures. Finally, concrete examples are described, namely the negation-type power distribution, the negation-type [0, 1]-truncated exponential distribution, the negation-type truncated [0, 1]-sine distribution, the negation-type [0, 1]-truncated Lomax distribution, the negation-type Kumaraswamy distribution, and the negation-type beta distribution. Some of their properties are studied, also with the help of graphics that highlight their original modeling behavior. After the analysis, it appears that the negation-type Kumaraswamy distribution stands out from the others by combining simplicity with a high degree of flexibility, in a sense completing the famous Kumaraswamy distribution. Overall, our results enrich the panel of unit distributions available in the literature with an innovative approach.
