An extension result for maps admitting an algebraic addition theorem

We prove that if an analytic map $f:=(f_1,\ldots ,f_n):U\subset \mathbb{C}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{C}^n$ admits an algebraic addition theorem then there exists a meromorphic map $g:=(g_1,\ldots ,g_n):\mathbb{C}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{C}^n$ admitting an algebraic addition theorem such that $f_1,\ldots ,f_n$ are algebraic over $\mathbb{C}(g_1,\ldots ,g_n)$ on $U$ (this was proved by K. Weierstrass in dimension $1$). Furthermore, $(g_1,\ldots ,g_n)$ admits a rational addition theorem.

Two-dimensional simply connected abelian locally Nash groups

The aim of this paper is to give a description of simply connected abelian locally Nash groups of dimension $2$. Along the way we prove that, for any $n\geq 2$, a locally Nash structure over $(\mathbb{R}^n,+)$ can be characterized via a meromorphic map admitting an algebraic addition theorem.

A mathematically assisted reconstruction of the initial focus of the yellow fever outbreak in Buenos Aires (1871)

We discuss the historic mortality record corresponding to the initial focus of the yellow fever epidemic outbreak registered in Buenos Aires during the year 1871 as compared to simulations of a stochastic population dynamics model. This model incorporates the biology of the urban vector of yellow fever, the mosquito Aedes aegypti, the stages of the disease in the human being as well as the spatial extension of the epidemic outbreak. After introducing the historical context and the restrictions it puts on initial conditions and ecological parameters, we discuss the general features of the simulation and the dependence on initial conditions and available sites for breeding the vector. We discuss the sensitivity, to the free parameters, of statistical estimators such as: final death toll, day of the year when the outbreak reached half the total mortality and the normalized daily mortality, showing some striking regularities. The model is precise and accurate enough to discuss the truthfulness of the presently accepted historic discussions of the epidemic causes, showing that there are more likely scenarios for the historic facts.

Commutators in groups definable in o-minimal structures

We prove the definability, and actually the finiteness of the commutator width, of many commutator subgroups in groups definable in o-minimal structures. It applies in particular to derived series and to lower central series of solvable groups. Along the way, we prove some generalities on groups with the descending chain condition on definable subgroups and/or with a definable and additive dimension.
