• A nested family of k-total effective rewards for positional games 

      [OWP-2015-21] Boros, Endre; Elbassioni, Khaled; Gurvich, Vladimir; Makino, Kazuhisa (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2015)
      We consider Gillette's two-person zero-sum stochastic games with perfect information. For each $k \in \mathbb{Z}_+$ we introduce an effective reward function, called $k$-total. For $k = 0$ and $1$ this function is known ...
    • A new counting function for the zeros of holomorphic curves 

      [OWP-2009-25] Anderson, J. M.; Hinkkanen, Aimo (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-18)
      Let $f_1,..., f_p$ be entire functions that do not all vanish at any point, so that $(f_1,..., f_p)$ is a holomorphic curve in $\mathbb{CP}^{p-1}$. We introduce a new and more careful notion of counting the order of the ...
    • New representations of matroids and generalizations 

      [OWP-2011-18] Izhakian, Zur; Rhodes, John L. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2011)
      We extend the notion of matroid representations by matrices over fields by considering new representations of matroids by matrices over finite semirings, more precisely over the boolean and the superboolean semirings. This ...

      [OWP-2010-19] Tran, Van Tan; Vu, Van Truong (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)
      In 1985, Fujimoto established a non-integrated defect relation for meromorphic maps of complete Kähler manifolds into the complex projective space intersecting hyperplanes in general position. In this paper, we generalize ...
    • Non-Standard Behavior of Density Estimators for Sums of Squared Observations 

      [OWP-2008-07] Schick, Anton; Wefelmeyer, Wolfgang (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-11)
      It has been shown recently that, under an appropriate integrability condition, densities of functions of independent and identically distributed random variables can be estimated at the parametric rate by a local U-statistic, ...

      [OWP-2015-16] Berenstein, Arkady; Retakh, Vladimir (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2015-11-18)
      The aim of the paper is to attach a noncommutative cluster-like structure to each marked surface $\Sigma$. This is a noncommutative algebra $\mathcal{A}_\Sigma$ generated by “noncommutative geodesics” between marked points ...
    • Noncommutative topological entropy of endomorphismus of Cuntz Algebras 

      [OWP-2008-12] Skalski, Adam; Zacharias, Joachim (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-16)
      Noncommutative topological entropy estimates are obtained for ‘finite range’ endomorphisms of Cuntz algebras,generalising known results for the canonical shift endomorphisms. Exact values are computed for a class of ...
    • Noncompact harmonic manifolds 

      [OWP-2013-08] Knieper, Gerhard; Peyerimhoff, Norbert (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2013-04-10)
      The Lichnerowicz conjecture asserts that all harmonic manifolds are either flat or locally symmetric spaces of rank 1. This conjecture has been proved by Z.I. Szab ́o [Sz] for harmonic manifolds with compact universal ...
    • Nondegenerate Invariant Symmetric Bilinear Forms on Simple Lie Superalgebras in Characteristic 2 

      [OWP-2020-02] Krutov, Andrey; Lebedev, Alexei; Leites, Dimitry; Shchepochkina, Irina (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020-02-04)
      As is well-known, the dimension of the space of non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear forms (NISes) on any simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra or Lie superalgebra is equal to at most 1 if the characteristic of the ...
    • Nonexistence of Subcritical Solitary Waves 

      [OWP-2020-06] Kozlov, Vladimir; Lokharu, Evgeniy; Wheeler, Miles H. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020-03-15)
      We prove the nonexistence of two-dimensional solitary gravity water waves with subcritical wave speeds and an arbitrary distribution of vorticity. This is a longstanding open problem, and even in the irrotational case there ...

      [OWP-2007-06] Lee, Jon; Onn, Shmuel; Weismantel, Robert; Berstein, Yael; Maruri-Aguilar, Hugo; Riccomagno, Eva; Wynn, Henry P. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2007-03-24)
      We study the problem of optimizing nonlinear objective functions over matroids presented by oracles or explicitly. Such functions can be interpreted as the balancing of multi-criteria optimization. We provide a combinatorial ...

      [OWP-2014-15] Angermann, Lutz; Shestopalov, Yury V.; Smirnov, Yury G.; Yatsyk, Vasyl V. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014-12-20)
      We investigate a generalization of one-parameter eigenvalue problems arising in the theory of nonlinear waveguides to a more general nonlinear multiparameter eigenvalue problem for a nonlinear operator. Using an integral ...

      [OWP-2008-14] Berstein, Yael; Lee, Jon; Onn, Shmuel; Weismantel, Robert (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-17)
      We address optimization of nonlinear functions of the form $f(W_x)$ , where $f : \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$ is a nonlinear function, $W$ is a $d \times n$ matrix, and feasible $x$ are in some large finite set $\mathcal{F}$ ...
    • Nonlinear optimization over a Weighted Independence System 

      [OWP-2008-10] Lee, Jon; Onn, Shmuel; Weismantel, Robert (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-14)
      We consider the problem of optimizing a nonlinear objective function over a weighted independence system presented by a linear-optimization oracle. We provide a polynomial-time algorithm that determines an r-best solution ...
    • A note on delta hedging in markets with jumps 

      [OWP-2011-23] Mijatović, Aleksandar; Urusov, Mikhail A. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2011-05-21)
      Modelling stock prices via jump processes is common in financial markets. In practice, to hedge a contingent claim one typically uses the so-called delta-hedging strategy. This strategy stems from the Black–Merton–Scholes ...
    • A Note on Endpoint Bochner-Riesz Estimates 

      [OWP-2023-17] Beltran, David; Roos, Joris; Seeger, Andreas (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-11-27)
      We revisit an $\varepsilon$-removal argument of Tao to obtain sharp $L^p \to L^r(L^p)$ estimates for sums of Bochner-Riesz bumps which are conditional on non-endpoint bounds for single scale bumps. These can be used to ...
    • A note on k[z]-Automorphisms in Two Variables 

      [OWP-2008-17] Edo, Eric; Essen, Arno van den; Maubach, Stefan (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008)
      We prove that for a polynomial $f \in k[x, y, z]$ equivalent are: (1)$f$ is a $k[z]$-coordinate of $k[z][x,y]$, and (2) $k[x, y, z]/(f)\cong k^[2]$ and $f(x,y,a)$ is a coordinate in $k[x,y]$ for some $a \in k$. This solves ...
