### The term $H^1(N,A)^{G/N}$ in the inflation-restriction exact sequence

[a repost from SE due to the lack of response] Given a group $G$, let $A$ be a $G$-module and let $N\trianglelefteq G$. If I understand it correctly, the superscript "G/N" in the third term of the ...

### Matroids similar to the cycle matroid

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph (loops and multiple edges are permitted). Three following systems of dependent sets in $E$ define matroids: 1) Set $A\subset E$ is dependent if $A$ contains cycle. This is a ...

### quasi-projective and separated as topological properties

Let $X$ be a non-reduced noetherian scheme over $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. Assume that $X^{red}$ is quasi-projective and separated, does the same hold for $X$ ? (By the way, projective implies a ...

### Terminology for polygons

As you may know term "polygon" might mean few different things and its meaning has to guessed from context. By some reason I have to use few of these meaning in one place. So I converge to the ...

### Coupled differential equations

I'm looking at the following coupled set of differential equations. Because of the symmetry, I'm hoping to be able to write down the solution for $x_n(t)$ and $y_n(t)$ in terms of $f(t)$ and $g(t)$, ...

### Is this (funny) combinatorial optimization problem NP-hard ? (cutting numbers and placing them in urns)

The parameters of the problem are $m$ numbers which are integers (these numbers are denoted $b_i$), $n$ urns and in each urn, we can place $C$ numbers. We assume $nC \geq m$ so that the problem is ...

### Are there infinitely many $k$ for which $\frac{\sigma(k)}{k}=n^p$ and $p$ is an odd prime? [on hold]

I would like to know if there are infinitely many $k$ for which $$\sigma(k)/k=n^p$$ such that $m=k{n}^{p-1}$ with $m,n>0$ and $p$ is an odd prime? Note: $\sigma(\frac{m}{{n}^{p-1}})$ is the sum of ...
