In this talk, I will introduce an estimation methodology for a semiparametric quantile factor panel model. I will also talk about our proposed tools for inference that are robust to the existence of moments and to the form of weak cross-sectional dependence in the idiosyncratic error term. Specifically, we use sieve techniques to obtain preliminary estimators of the nonparametric beta functions, and use these to estimate the factor return vector at each time period. We then update the loading functions and factor returns sequentially.

Ramsey theory dates back to the 1930's and computing Ramsey numbers is a notoriously difficult problem in combinatorics. We study Ramsey numbers of graphs in Gallai colorings, where a Gallai coloring is a coloring of the edges of a complete graph such that no triangle has all its edges colored differently. Given an integer $k/ge1$ and ``forbidden" graphs $H_1, /ldots, H_k$, the Gallai-Ramsey number $GR(H_1, /ldots, H_k)$ is the least integer $n$ such that every Gallai coloring of the complete graph $K_n$ using $k$ colors contains a monochromatic copy of $H_i$ in color $i$ for some $i /in /{1, /ldots, k/}$. Gallai-Ramsey numbers are more well-behaved, though computing them is far from trivial.

A number of ion channels are observed to be sensitive to the temperature changes. These temperature-gated ion channels can detect the temperature thus regulate the internal homoeostasis and disease-related processes such as the thermal adaptation and the fever response. In order to understand how the temperature affects the ion channel mechanics, we develop a Poisson--Nernst--Planck--Fourier (PNPF) system through the energetic variational approach. With given form of the free energy functional and the entropy production, we achieve the mechanical equations and a temperature equation, which satisfy the laws of thermodynamics automatically. From the energy point of view, we also develop the numeric scheme which satisfy the discrete energy dissipation.

Let A be a sequence of complex numbers. In this talk we present a new family of asymptotic formulas for of digamma function of sequence A. Then we apply it and use residue theorem to obtain a new family of identities for Dirichlet series. As applications of these relations, we establish some relations of Euler sums and hyperbolic series. Moreover, we give many explicit formulas for non-alternating Euler sums with weight ≤ 6 in terms of Riemann zeta values, and for alternating Euler sums with weight ≤ 10 in terms of Riemann zeta values and polylogarithms.

This article is devoted to the exploration of finite element methods for magneto-heat coupling model, where the eddy current problem and the heat equation are coupled together with the heat convection and the radiation effects. Firstly, the decoupled scheme is established by applying backward Euler discretization in time and $N/acute{e}d/acute{e}lec$-Lagrange finite element in magnetic-temperature field, respectively. Secondly, the existence and uniqueness of the discretized scheme are proved by applying the theory of monotone operators. Then, under some regularity assumptions and time-step restriction

Voronoi formulas are Poisson-style summation formulas for automorphic forms (on GL(n)). They have been powerful tools in analytic number theory for a long time (with applications to the divisor problem, the circle problem, subconvexity of L-functions, etc). Firstly, we present a Voronoi formula for coefficients of a large class of L-functions, in the style of the classical converse theorem of Andre Weil. Our formula applies to full-level cusp forms, Rankin-Selberg convolutions, and isobaric sums. Secondly, we present the balanced Voronoi formula, with its both sides twisted by hyper-Kloosterman sums. Lastly, we will discuss how the formula will be generlized when the automorphic form has ramifications.
