ABSTRACT
Given a function f : E â†’ R with E âŠ‚ ℝ:n, we explain how to decide whether f extends to a âŠ‚m function F on â„n. If E is finite, then one can efficiently compute an F as above, whose Cm norm has the least possible order of magnitude (joint work with B. Klartag).

In the present paper, conditions of embedding for a quadratic extension of an algebraic number field into a cyclic 2-extension are presented. An example of an unsolvable embedding problem for which the compatibility condition is fulfilled is constructed. Bibliography: 7 titles.

We investigate arithmetic properties of certain subsets of square-free positive integers and obtain in this way some results concerning the class number h( d) of the real quadratic field $$\mathbb{Q}{\left( {{\sqrt d }} \right)}$$. In particular, we give a new proof of the result of Hasse,...

Let G be a reductive group over a local field of characteristic zero or a finite central cover of such a group. We present a conjecture that enables one to define formal degree for all unitary representations of G. The conjecture is proved for GLn and over real and p-adic fields, together with a...

In mathematics, numbers that satisfy a polynomial equation with rational coefficients: for example, âˆš2 solves x2 - 2 = 0. Real numbers that are not algebraic are called trancendental numbers. Although there is an infinity of algebraic numbers, there is...

A vertex Î½ is an s-king of an hypertournament T if the distance from Î½ to every other vertex of T is at most s. We consider 1-kings and 2-kings of hypertournaments. In some properties they follow corresponding kings of ordinary tournaments. In some other they are completely different.

In this note we consider formally real fields that admit only of Archimedean orderings. Such fields will be called Archimedean. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a formally real field to be Archimedean. We also characterize in terms of convexity the positive cones of...

The embedding problem of local fields with p-groups is equivalent to its associated Abelian problem if the inequality d = r + 2 is valid; here d and r are the numbers of generators of the Demushkin group and of the Galois group of an embedded field. Bibliography: 6 titles.
