TL;DR: The concept of strongly convex R-hull of a set is introduced in this paper, and a generalization of the Krein-Mil'man theorem for strongly-convex sets is proved.
Abstract: Properties of strongly convex sets (that is, of sets that can be represented as intersections of balls of radius fixed for each particular set) are investigated. A connection between strongly convex sets and strongly convex functions is established. The concept of a strongly convex R-hull of a set (the minimal strongly convex set containing the given set) is introduced; an explicit formula for the strongly convex R-hull of a set is obtained. The behaviour of the strongly convex R-hull under the variation of R and of the sets is considered. An analogue of the Caratheodory theorem for strongly convex sets is obtained. The concept of a strongly extreme point is introduced, and a generalization of the Krein-Mil'man theorem for strongly convex sets is proved. Polyhedral approximations of convex and, in particular, of strongly convex compact sets are considered. Sharp error estimates for polyhedral and strongly convex approximations of such sets from inside and outside are established.

TL;DR: In this paper, a topological classification of integrable Hamiltonian systems in the neighbourhood of singular leaves that contain an arbitrary number of points of rank zero is presented. But the classification is restricted to the case when the singular leaf contains one point of zero.
Abstract: One of the key problem in Hamiltonian mechanics is to describe the behaviour of integrable Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom in neighbourhoods of singular leaves of the Liouville foliation. In 1988 Lerman and Umanskii announced a classification theorem for such systems in the case when the singular leaf contains one point of rank zero. The proof was published in 1992 and 1993. In the solution of classical problems in physics and mechanics, integrable Hamiltonian systems arise which have a singular leaf with several points of rank zero. This paper concerns the topological classification of integrable Hamiltonian systems in the neighbourhood of singular leaves that contain an arbitrary number of points of rank zero.

Abstract: A detailed study of the concept of p-connectedness is carried out; in particular, a criterion for the p-connectedness of two disjoint domains with Lipschitz boundaries and with fractal contact is formulated.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that given a symmetric group of sufficiently large degree, every irreducible representation of it with Young diagram fitting into a square with side is of dimension at least.
Abstract: Two main results of this paper are singled out. The first one relates to the representation theory of symmetric groups. The second one deals with varieties of Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero. The first result can be presented as follows: given a symmetric group of sufficiently large degree , every irreducible representation of it with Young diagram fitting into a square with side is of dimension at least . The second result states that there are no varieties of Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero with lower exponent strictly less than two. At the same time, examples of varieties with exponent two are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a general theorem that establishes a relation between linear and algebraic independence of values at algebraic points of E-functions and properties of the ideal formed by all algebraic equations relating these functions over the field of rational functions is presented.
Abstract: We prove a general theorem that establishes a relation between linear and algebraic independence of values at algebraic points of E-functions and properties of the ideal formed by all algebraic equations relating these functions over the field of rational functions. Using this theorem we prove sufficient conditions for linear independence of values of E-functions as well as for algebraic independence of values of subjects of them. The main result is an assertion stating that at all algebraic points, except finitely many, the values of E-functions are linearly independent over the field of all algebraic numbers if the corresponding functions are linearly independent over the field of rational functions. The theorem is applied to concrete E-functions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the Bogolyubov-Krylov theorem on the existence of a 1-projectively invariant measure for a circle homeomorphism is presented.
Abstract: General groups of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of R are investigated. A series of metric invariants are defined for such groups: {omega}-projectively invariant measures, where {omega} is a cardinal number. A theorem on the existence of an {omega}-projectively invariant measure is formulated, which is a natural generalization of the Bogolyubov-Krylov theorem on the existence of an invariant measure for a circle homeomorphism. For groups with an {omega}-projectively invariant measure 'obstructions' to the existence of a 1-projectively invariant measure are analysed. The approach is based on the study of the topological structure of the set of all fixed points of the elements of the group, the orbits of points in the line, minimal sets, and the combinatorial properties of groups.

TL;DR: In this article, a tree Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero is considered and the decomposition of the homogeneous spaces into irreducible components and their multiplicities are calculated.
Abstract: In this paper we consider a tree Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero. This algebra is a module over the full linear group, and the spaces of homogeneous elements are invariant under this action. We study the decomposition of the homogeneous spaces into irreducible components and calculate their multiplicities. One method for calculating these multiplicities involves their connection with the values of the irreducible characters of the symmetric group on conjugacy classes of elements corresponding to a product of independent cycles of the same length. In the second section we give an explicit formula for calculating such character values. This formula is analogous to the hook formula for the dimension of the irreducible modules of the symmetric group. In the second method for calculating multiplicities we make use of Witt's formula for the dimensions of the polyhomogeneous components of a free Lie algebra. The rest of this paper deal with relations between the Hilbert series of a free two-generator Lie algebra and the generating series of the multiplicities of the irreducible modules in this algebra.

The strong convergence of the solutions of the problems under consideration is proved in for ; a corrector in and a homogenized boundary-value problem are constructed. These results are based on an asymptotic expansion for the sequence and on a new pointwise estimate of the solution of a certain model non-linear problem.

TL;DR: In this paper, the -analogues of modified Bessel functions and Macdonald functions are defined, which arise in harmonic analysis on quantum symmetric spaces, based on the power series expansion.
Abstract: The -analogues of modified Bessel functions and Macdonald functions are defined in this paper. As in the case of -Bessel functions introduced by Jackson, there are two kinds of these functions. Like their classical prototypes, they arise in harmonic analysis on quantum symmetric spaces.

Some relations for basic hypergeometric series, which result from this, are given.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the algebra of regular functions on quantum matrices admits a division ring of quotients and that this division ring is a twisted rational function, and that the center is a purely transcendental extension of a field of degree if both numbers and are odd.

A description is given of the field of central elements in the division ring of rational functions on quantum matrices in the one-parameter and multiparameter cases. In the one-parameter case for of a general form the center is a purely transcendental extension of a field of degree (were is the greatest common divisor of and ) if both numbers and are odd. If at least one of the numbers and is even, then the center is scalar. In the multiparameter case the answer depends upon the parameters ,, . Here the generators of the center are described and it is proved that the center is scalar for the case of even and parameters of a general form. Analogous result are obtained for the division ring of rational functions on a quantum Borel subgroup of .

TL;DR: In this article, a wide class of 'doubly degenerate' divergent quasilinear parabolic equations of an arbitrary order are studied, in particular the equations of non-stationary Newtonian and non-Newtonian filtration.
Abstract: Cauchy problems for a wide class of 'doubly degenerate' divergent quasilinear parabolic equations of an arbitrary order are studied. This class contains, in particular, the equations of non-stationary Newtonian and non-Newtonian filtration. For arbitrary initial functions of the lowest local regularity acceptable from the viewpoint of the theory of solubility it is proved that the rate of evolution of the supports of the generalized solutions is finite. Upper estimates of this rate are obtained which are exact both for large and small times.
