Doubly primitive groups with simple socle
None of these groups are $2$-primitive except for ${\rm Sp}(2d,2)$.
For ${\rm PSL}(d,q)$ with $d>2$, the $2$-point stabilizer fixes two projective points, say $\langle v_1 \rangle$ and $\langle v_2 \ …

Equivalence of homotopy categories and model structure theory
It misses the point to think of model category as a
tool for proving that homotopy categories are equivalent.
In the case of simplicial sets and topological spaces, that equivalence long preceded the …

Extending a harmonic function in a ball to subharmonic in a larger ball
One can build a distributional subsolution which is a Lipschitz extension of $u$ by making an extension with a positive jump in radial derivative across the boundary. Say $u$ is harmonic on $B_1$ and …

Rings for which no polynomial induces the zero function
$R$ has a nonzero polynomial that induces the zero function if and only if there are ideals $I$, $J$ such that $I$ is nontrivial, $IJ=0$, and $R/J$ is a ring satisfying the following condition:
There …

groups of order $ p(p^2-1) / 4 $ where $p$ is a prime
If the Sylow $p$-subgroup was not normal, then it is not hard to see that the only possibility would be $4|(p-1)$ with $p+1$ Sylow $p$-subgroups. Then $G$ would act $2$-transitively by conjugation on …

How to solve this quadratic matrix equation?
Not a complete answer, but a long comment. Using standard results for Riccati equations, one can parametrize all (symmetric and non-symmetric) solutions. One can rewrite the equation in the form
$$

Generalising the adherence operator and its closure properties with regard to regular (ratio...
Then answer is yes. Since $F(L)$ is a regular language, it suffices to prove the following result:
If $K$ is a regular language, then $R(K) = \{u \in A^\omega \mid F(u) \subseteq K \}$ is $\omega$ …

Counting simple 4-cycles in an undirected graph
In an undirected graph with $m$ edges there can be as many as $\Theta(m^2)$ simple 4-cycles, so that's a reasonable time bound to aim for. And it's easy enough to achieve: set up a data structure that …

Counting curves of degree 4 in $\mathbb{P}^{3}$
Zero. Indeed, if the intersection $Q_1 \cap Q_2$ of two quadrics is singular at $p_1$, then there is a quadric $Q$ in the pencil generated by $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ which is singular at $p_1$. On the other h …

Geometric applications of Ekeland's variational principle
There are some examples in convex analysis. For example, in the book of Borwein & Lewis (Convex Analysis and Nonlinear Optimization) page 225, they use the PVE to prove that every Chebyshev set (i.e. …

Automorphisms of non-abelian groups of order $ p^3$
There is a clear and more specific answer (with reference moreover!) here, despite the different question: https://math.stackexchange.com/a/18496/84625
In short $\operatorname{Aut}\left(\left(\mathb …

Question on the number of equilibria
Building upon what others have already said, the number of hyperbolic fixed points is indeed countable, but need not be finite.
First, it follows from the definition of a hyperbolic fixed point $x$ t …

Can the natural boundary be part of the unit circle?
Every closed set $F$ on the unit circle is the set of singularities of some analytic function.
Take a countable dense subset $z_k$ of $F$ and then choose positive $a_k$ so small
that the series
$$f(z) …

Real representation of group of odd order
Alternatively, a finite group of odd order has no real-valued complex irreducible character other than the trivial character. ( Proof (well-known): if $\chi$ is such a character, we have $\chi(g) = \c …

Absolute value inequality for complex numbers
In general, once you've proven an inequality like this in ${\bf R}$
it holds automatically in any Euclidean space (including ${\bf C}$)
by averaging over projections. ("Inequality like this" = inequa …
