We prove the comparison theorems for scalar stochastic differential equations in the case of different diffusion coefficients. Conditions are given of stability with probability 1 with respect to the trivial solution to stochastic differential equations with random coefficients. The results remain valid for deterministic analogs of stochastic differential equations with symmetric integrals.

Back in 1922, Franklin proved that each 3-polytope with minimum degree 5 has a 5-vertex adjacent to two vertices of degree at most 6, which is tight. This result has been extended and refined in several directions. In particular, Jendrol’ and Madaras (1996) ensured a 4-path with the degree-sum at most 23. The purpose of this note is to prove that each 3-polytope with minimum degree 5 has a (6, 5, 6, 6)-path or (5, 5, 5, 7)-path, which is tight and refines both above mentioned results.

We prove that, under some extra conditions, the locally uniform limit of mappings with bounded (θ, 1)-weighted (p, q)-distortion is a mapping of bounded (θ, 1)-weighted (p, q)-distortion too. Moreover, we obtain the lower semicontinuity of the distortion coefficients.

We show that, for every number p ∈ (0, 1), there is g ∈ L¹[0, 1] (a universal function) that has monotone coefficients c_k(g) and the Fourier–Walsh series convergent to g (in the norm of L¹[0, 1]) such that, for every f ∈ L^p[0, 1], there are numbers δ_k = ±1, 0 and an increasing sequence of positive integers N_q such that the series ∑ _k=0^+∞δ_kc_k(g)W_k (with {W_k} theWalsh system) and the subsequence \(\sigma _{{N_q}}^{\left( \alpha \right)}\), α ∈ (−1, 0), of its Cesáro means converge to f in the metric of L^p[0, 1].

Under study are some commuting rank 2 differential operators with polynomial coefficients. We prove that, for every spectral curve of the form w² = z³+c₂z2+c₁z+c₀ with arbitrary coefficients c_i, there exist commuting nonselfadjoint operators of orders 4 and 6 with polynomial coefficients of arbitrary degree.

We introduce the notion of subcomplex structure on a manifold of arbitrary real dimension and consider some important particular cases of pseudocomplex structures: pseudotwistor, affinor, and sub-Kähler structures. It is shown how subtwistor and affinor structures can give sub-Riemannian and sub-Kähler structures. We also prove that all classical structures (twistor, Kähler, and almost contact metric structures) are particular cases of subcomplex structures. The theory is based on the use of a degenerate 1-form or a 2-form with radical of arbitrary dimension.

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a homeomorphism of domains in a Euclidean space to generate a bounded embedding operator of the Orlicz–Sobolev spaces defined by a special class of N-functions.

We consider the existence problems for quasiorders on sets in terms of which it is possible to describe the algebraic closure operator on subsets of universal algebras with a given universe.

We prove that a group with the not maximal quasicyclic centralizer of a finite involution is locally finite.

We prove the embedding theorems of the Sobolev–Morrey spaces into the space of uniformly continuous functions so extending the classical Sobolev Theorems.

We describe fully quasitransitive torsion-free groups in the class of groups whose endomorphism ring is a skew field as well as in the class of groups that are direct sums of homogeneous groups. We prove the full transitivity of fully quasitransitive cohesive groups and the quasitransitive torsion-free groups coinciding with their pseudosocle and having p-rank ≤ 1 for each prime p.
