Polylogarithms, hyperfunctions and generalized Lipschitz summation formulae
A generalization of the classical Lipschitz summation formula is proposed. It
involves new polylogarithmic rational functions constructed via the Fourier
expansion of certain sequences of Bernoulli--type polynomials. Related families
of one--dimensional hyperfunctions are also constructed.

Polarization of generalized Nijenhuis torsions
In this work, we introduce the notion of polarization of generalized
Nijenhuis torsions and establish several algebraic identities. We prove that
these polarizations are relevant in the characterization of Haantjes
$C^{\infty}$(M)-modules of operator fields.

Mirror Descent Using the Tempesta Generalized Multi-parametric Logarithms
In this paper, we develop a wide class Mirror Descent (MD) algorithms, which
play a key role in machine learning. For this purpose we formulated the
constrained optimization problem, in which we exploits the Bregman divergence
with the Tempesta multi-parametric deformation logarithm as a link function.
This link function called also mirror function defines the mapping between the
primal and dual spaces and is associated with a very-wide (in fact,
theoretically infinite) class of generalized trace-form entropies. In order to
derive novel MD updates, we estimate generalized exponential function, which
closely approximates the inverse of the multi-parametric Tempesta generalized
logarithm. The shape and properties of the Tempesta logarithm and its
inverse-deformed exponential functions can be tuned by several hyperparameters.
By learning these hyperparameters, we can adapt to distribution or geometry of
training data, and we can adjust them to achieve desired properties of MD
algorithms. The concept of applying multi-parametric logarithms allow us to
generate a new wide and flexible family of MD and mirror-less MD updates.

Quantum models related to fouled Hamiltonians of the harmonic oscillator
We study a pair of canonoid (fouled) Hamiltonians of the harmonic oscillator
which provide, at the classical level, the same equation of motion as the
conventional Hamiltonian. These Hamiltonians, say $K_{1}$ and $K_{2}$, result
to be explicitly time-dependent and can be expressed as a formal rotation of
two cubic polynomial functions, $H_{1}$ and $H_{2}$, of the canonical variables
(q,p).
We investigate the role of these fouled Hamiltonians at the quantum level.
Adopting a canonical quantization procedure, we construct some quantum models
and analyze the related eigenvalue equations. One of these models is described
by a Hamiltonian admitting infinite self-adjoint extensions, each of them has a
discrete spectrum on the real line. A self-adjoint extension is fixed by
choosing the spectral parameter $\epsilon$ of the associated eigenvalue
equation equal to zero. The spectral problem is discussed in the context of
three different representations. For $\epsilon =0$, the eigenvalue equation is
exactly solved in all these representations, in which square-integrable
solutions are explicity found. A set of constants of motion corresponding to
these quantum models is also obtained. Furthermore, the algebraic structure
underlying the quantum models is explored. This turns out to be a nonlinear
(quadratic) algebra, which could be applied for the determination of
approximate solutions to the eigenvalue equations.

Maximally superintegrable Smorodinsky-Winternitz systems on the N-dimensional sphere and hyperbolic spaces
The classical Smorodinsky-Winternitz systems on the ND sphere, Euclidean and
hyperbolic spaces S^N, E^N and H^N are simultaneously approached starting from
the Lie algebras so_k(N+1), which include a parametric dependence on the
curvature k. General expressions for the Hamiltonian and its integrals of
motion are given in terms of intrinsic geodesic coordinate systems. Each Lie
algebra generator gives rise to an integral of motion, so that a set of
N(N+1)/2 integrals is obtained. Furthermore, 2N-1 functionally independent ones
are identified which, in turn, shows that the well known maximal
superintegrability of the Smorodinsky-Winternitz system on E^N is preserved
when curvature arises. On both S^N and H^N, the resulting system can be
interpreted as a superposition of an "actual" oscillator and N "ideal"
oscillators (for the sphere, these are alike the actual ones), which can also
be understood as N "centrifugal terms"; this is the form seen in the Euclidean
limiting case.

Nilpotent integrability, reduction of dynamical systems and a third-order Calogero-Moser system
We present an algebraic formulation of the notion of integrability of
dynamical systems, based on a nilpotency property of its flow: it can be
explicitly described as a polynomial on its evolution parameter. Such a
property is established in a purely geometric--algebraic language, in terms
both of the algebra of all higher-order constants of the motion (named the
nilpotent algebra of the dynamics), and of a maximal Abelian algebra of
symmetries (called a Cartan subalgebra of the dynamics). It is shown that this
notion of integrability amounts to the annihilator of the nilpotent algebra
being contained in a Cartan subalgebra of the dynamics. Systems exhibiting this
property will be said to be nilpotent integrable.
Our notion of nilpotent integrability offers a new insight into the intrinsic
dynamical properties of a system, which is independent of any auxiliary
geometric structure defined on its phase space. At the same time, it extends in
a natural way the classical concept of complete integrability for Hamiltonian
systems. An algebraic reduction procedure valid for nilpotent integrable
systems, generalizing the well-known reduction procedures for symplectic and/or
Poisson systems on appropriate quotient spaces, is also discussed. In
particular, it is shown that a large class of nilpotent integrable systems can
be obtained by reduction of higher-order free systems. The case of the
third-order free system is analyzed and a nontrivial set of third-order
Calogero-Moser-like nilpotent integrable equations is obtained.

Complexity-based permutation entropies: from deterministic time series to white noise
This is a paper in the intersection of time series analysis and complexity
theory that presents new results on permutation complexity in general and
permutation entropy in particular. In this context, permutation complexity
refers to the characterization of time series by means of ordinal patterns
(permutations), entropic measures, decay rates of missing ordinal patterns, and
more. Since the inception of this \textquotedblleft ordinal\textquotedblright\
methodology, its practical application to any type of scalar time series and
real-valued processes have proven to be simple and useful. However, the
theoretical aspects have remained limited to noiseless deterministic series and
dynamical systems, the main obstacle being the super-exponential growth of
visible permutations with length when randomness (also in form of observational
noise) is present in the data. To overcome this difficulty, we take a new
approach through complexity classes, which are precisely defined by the growth
of visible permutations with length, regardless of the deterministic or noisy
nature of the data. We consider three major classes: exponential, sub-factorial
and factorial. The next step is to adapt the concept of Z-entropy to each of
those classes, which we call permutation entropy because it coincides with the
conventional permutation entropy on the exponential class. Z-entropies are a
family of group entropies, each of them extensive on a given complexity class.
The result is a unified approach to the ordinal analysis of deterministic and
random processes, from dynamical systems to white noise, with new concepts and
tools. Numerical simulations show that permutation entropy discriminates time
series from all complexity classes.

On Appell sequences of polynomials of Bernoulli and Euler type
A construction of new sequences of generalized Bernoulli polynomials of first
and second kind is proposed. These sequences share with the classical Bernoulli
polynomials many algebraic and number--theoretical properties. A new class of
Euler--type polynomials is also presented.

Generalized Lenard Chains, Separation of Variables and Superintegrability
We show that the notion of generalized Lenard chains naturally allows
formulation of the theory of multi-separable and superintegrable systems in the
context of bi-Hamiltonian geometry. We prove that the existence of generalized
Lenard chains generated by a Hamiltonian function defined on a four-dimensional
\omega N manifold guarantees the separation of variables. As an application, we
construct such chains for the H\'enon-Heiles systems and for the classical
Smorodinsky-Winternitz systems. New bi-Hamiltonian structures for the Kepler
potential are found.

Bipartite and directed scale-free complex networks arising from zeta functions
We construct a new class of directed and bipartite random graphs whose
topology is governed by the analytic properties of L-functions. The bipartite
L-graphs and the multiplicative zeta graphs are relevant examples of the
proposed construction. Phase transitions and percolation thresholds for our
models are determined.
