The determinant of the Laplacian is a global Riemannian invariant which is defined formally as the product of the nonzero eigenvalues of the Laplacian of a given Riemannian metric. It gives a continuous function on the space of Riemannian metrics. In...

Suppose $A$ is a subset of the integers of positive density. We prove a quantitative result on the existence of linearly independent polynomial configurations in the difference set of $A$. Our approach is based on first establishing a higher...

We consider the full system of compressible Navier-Stokes equations for heat conducting fluid. We show that the temperature is uniformly positive for $t\geq t_0$ (for any $t_0>0$) for any solutions with finite initial entropy. The assumptions on the...
