(tamche59@gmail.com). Complement graph of the square graph of finite abelian groups, pp. 845–857 ABSTRACT. Let G be a finite abelian group. The square graph Γsq(G) of G is the
simple undirected graph with vertex set G in which two distinct vertices x and y are
adjacent if and only if x + y = 2t for some t ∈ G and 2t≠0 where 0 is the identity
of the group G. In this paper, we discuss the diameter and the girth of the
complement graph Γsq(G). We give a necessary and sufficient condition for
Γsq(G) to be self-centered. Also, we obtain the independence number, the clique
number and the chromatic number of Γsq(G) and hence we prove that Γsq(G) is
weakly perfect. Also, we discuss when the complement graph Γsq(G) is perfect.
Further, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for Γsq(G) to be vertex
pancyclic.

859–895 ABSTRACT. In this paper we examine compactness phenomena in some classes
of modules. We first demonstrate that a κ-projective module M is projective
when the size κ of M is weakly compact. We introduce the class of κ-locally
projective modules and prove that they have the compactness property for
R when κ is a singular or a weakly compact cardinal and R is a PID. In the
case when κ is singular, we show that Shelah’s Singular Compactness Theorem
holds for these modules and also for torsionless modules. We show that for
some non weakly compact cardinal κ, compactness does not hold for locally
projective modules. Finally, we prove some compactness properties for U-torsionless
modules, where U is a bimodule, for certain special classes of large cardinals
κ.

the unit disc, the punctured disc, the annulus, and a special Stein domain. The necessary

endowed with the Kähler metrics.

915-933 ABSTRACT. In 2011, Li proved that if two L-functions L1 and L2 satisfy the same
functional equation with a(1) = 1 and L1−1(cj) = L2−1(cj) for two finite distinct
complex numbers c1 and c2, then L1 = L2. We prove that if two L-functions L1 and L2
satisfy the same functional equation with a(1) = 1 and EL1(S) = EL2(S) for a finite
set S = {c1,c2}, where c1 and c2 are two finite distinct complex values, then
L1 = L2.

Lorentzian space forms, pp. 935–951 ABSTRACT. Let M1n+1(c) be an (n + 1)-dimensional Lorentzian space form and
𝒞(M1n+1(c)) denote the conformal transformation group of M1n+1(c). A spacelike
hypersurface f : Mn→ M1n+1(c) is called a conformal homogeneous spacelike
hypersurface, If there exists a subgroup G ⊂𝒞(M1n+1(c)) such that the orbit
G(p) = f(Mn),p ∈ f(Mn). In this paper, we classify completely all conformal
homogeneous spacelike hypersurfaces with two distinct principal curvatures
under the conformal transformation group of M1n+1(c) when the dimension
n ≥ 3.

Mainz, Germany (mohajer@uni-mainz.de). Shimura varieties and abelian covers of the line, pp. 953-972 ABSTRACT. We prove that under some conditions on the monodromy, families of
abelian covers of the projective line do not give rise to (higher dimensional) Shimura
subvarieties in Ag. This is achieved by a reduction to p argument. We also use another
method based on monodromy computations to show that two dimensional subvarieties in
the above locus are not special. In particular it is shown that such families have usually
large monodromy groups. Together with our earlier results, the above mentioned results
contribute to classifying the special families in the moduli space of abelian varieties and
partially completes the work of several authors including the author’s previous
work.

formula between the Dirichlet and Neumann problems, pp. 973–1004 ABSTRACT. In this paper we study the dependence of the Hölder estimates on the
geometry of a domain with holes for the Neumann problem. For this, we study the
Hölder regularity of the solutions to the Dirichlet and Neumann problems in the disk
(and in the exterior of the disk), from which we get a relation between harmonic
extensions and harmonic functions with prescribed Neumann condition on the
boundary of the disk (for both interior and exterior problems). A novelty of
this work is that we deal directly with the Hölder regularity of the single layer
potentials of the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the Poisson equation,
something that most of the times seems to be avoided by studying the Newtonian
potential.

1005-1016 ABSTRACT. Let Ω be a bounded convex domain in ℂn, n ≥ 2, 1 ≤ q ≤ (n − 1), and
ϕ ∈ C(Ω). If the Hankel operator Hϕq−1 on (0,q − 1)–forms with symbol ϕ is compact,
then ϕ is holomorphic along q–dimensional analytic (actually, affine) varieties in the
boundary. We also prove a partial converse: if the boundary contains only ‘finitely many’
varieties, 1 ≤ q ≤ n, and ϕ ∈ C(Ω) is analytic along the ones of dimension q (or higher),
then Hϕq−1 is compact.

gaplessness for non-Archimedean ordered fields, in particular three generalised
Bolzano-Weierstraß properties: the Sikorski property (which fails for saturated fields),
the Keisler-Schmerl property, and the weak Bolzano-Weierstraß property introduced by
Carl, Galeotti, and Löwe. We show that the weak Bolzano-Weierstraß property is
“Bolzano-Weierstraß minus Cauchy completeness” and is equivalent the tree property of
the base number of the field. We furthermore improve on a number of results by Carl,
Galeotti, and Löwe.

mappings between manifolds of the same dimension, even when they are not
necessarily orientable. In this paper, we extend such notion for mappings from more
general spaces into manifolds. Once we have stablished a version of Hopf’s
absolute degree for certain maps f : X → M, where M is a manifold but X
need not be, we study the sets of deficient and multiple points of f. In case of
the set of deficient points, we estimate its dimension. For multiple points, we
study its density in X, and we also provide examples where its complement is
dense.

CAT(0) spaces. We first compare the two metrics on the boundary of a hyperbolic
CAT(0) space, i.e., the visual metric and the conical metric, and prove that they give the
same capacity dimension of the boundary. Then we study the capacity dimension of the
boundary of buildings, which is an important class of CAT(0) spaces. Finally, we give a
possible method to prove the finiteness of the asymptotic dimension of CAT(0)
spaces.
