1841. Complete nonsingular holomorphic foliations on Stein manifoldsAntonio Alarcón, Franc Forstnerič, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: Let $X$ be a Stein manifold of complex dimension $n \ge 1$ endowed with a Riemannian metric ${\mathfrak g}$. We show that for every integer $k$ with $\left[\frac{n}{2}\right] \le k \le n-1$ there is a nonsingular holomorphic foliation of dimension $k$ on $X$ all of whose leaves are topologically closed and ${\mathfrak g}$-complete. The same is true if $1\le k \left[\frac{n}{2}\right]$ provided that there is a complex vector bundle epimorphism $TX\to X \times \mathbb{C}^{n-k}$. We also show that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a proper holomorphic foliation on $\mathbb{C}^n$ $(n > 1)$ then for any Riemannian metric ${\mathfrak g}$ on $\mathbb{C}^n$ there is a holomorphic automorphism $\Phi$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ such that the image foliation $\Phi_*\mathcal{F}$ is ${\mathfrak g}$-complete. The analogous result is obtained on every Stein manifold with Varolin's density property.

1842. Lower (total) mutual-visibility number in graphsBoštjan Brešar, Ismael G. Yero, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: Given a graph $G$, a set $X$ of vertices in $G$ satisfying that between every two vertices in $X$ (respectively, in $G$) there is a shortest path whose internal vertices are not in $X$ is a mutual-visibility (respectively, total mutual-visibility) set in $G$. The cardinality of a largest (total) mutual-visibility set in $G$ is known under the name (total) mutual-visibility number, and has been studied in several recent works. In this paper, we propose two lower variants of these concepts, defined as the smallest possible cardinality among all maximal (total) mutual-visibility sets in $G$, and denote them by $\mu^{-}(G)$ and $\mu_t^{-}(G)$, respectively. While the total mutual-visibility number is never larger than the mutual-visibility number in a graph $G$, we prove that both differences $\mu^{-}(G)-\mu_t^{-}(G)$ and $\mu_t^{-}(G)-\mu^{-}(G)$ can be arbitrarily large. We characterize graphs $G$ with some small values of $\mu^{-}(G)$ and $\mu_t^{-}(G)$, and prove a useful tool called the Neighborhood Lemma, which enables us to find upper bounds on the lower mutual-visibility number in several classes of graphs. We compare the lower mutual-visibility number with the lower general position number, and find a close relationship with the Bollobás-Wessel theorem when this number is considered in Cartesian products of complete graphs. Finally, we also prove the NP-completeness of the decision problem related to $\mu_t^{-}(G)$.

1843. Fractional Sobolev spaces with kernel function on compact Riemannian manifoldsAhmed Aberqi, Abdesslam Ouaziz, Dušan Repovš, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper, a new class of Sobolev spaces with kernel function satisfying a Lévy-integrability-type condition on compact Riemannian manifolds is presented. We establish the properties of separability, reflexivity, and completeness. An embedding result is also proved. As an application, we prove the existence of solutions for a nonlocal elliptic problem involving the fractional $p(\cdot, \cdot)$-Laplacian operator. As one of the main tools, topological degree theory is applied.

1845. Paratesticular adenocarcinoma : unusual presentation of metastasis of pancreatic cancerJanja Ocvirk, Boštjan Šeruga, 2007, other scientific articles Abstract: Background. Metastatic paratesticular adenocarcinoma from the pancreatic cancer is very rare. To our knowledge, there are less than 20 cases published in the literature. Case report. We experienced a case of paratesticular adenocarcinoma from the primary pancreatic cancer. A 42-year-old man was presented with locoregionally advanced carcinoma of the tail of the pancreas with intraoperatively found liver metastases and with a tumour in the right hemi-scrotum. Ultrasound of the scrotum revealed a paratesticular tumour. A fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) confirmed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and it was in concordance with the diagnosis of the primary tumour. The patient started treatment with chemotherapy with gemcitabine. Unfortunately, he progressed one month later and the treatment was discontinued. Conclusions. Outcome in the adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is dismal. The only possible treatment option for metastatic disease is systemic therapy but the results are disappointing, as in the present case.

1847. On the $p$-fractional Schrödinger-Kirchhoff equations with electromagnetic fields and the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev nonlinearityMin Zhao, Yueqiang Song, Dušan Repovš, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: In this article, we deal with the following $p$-fractional Schrödinger-Kirchhoff equations with electromagnetic fields and the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev nonlinearity: $ M\left([u]_{s,A}^{p}\right)(-\Delta)_{p, A}^{s} u+V(x)|u|^{p-2} u=\lambda\left(\int_\limits{\mathbb{R}^{N}} \frac{|u|^{p_{\mu, s}^{*}}}{|x-y|^{\mu}} \mathrm{d}y\right)|u|^{p_{\mu, s}^{*}-2} u+k|u|^{q-2}u,\ x \in \mathbb{R}^{N},$ where $0 < s < 1 < p$, $ps < N$, $p < q < 2p^{*}_{s,\mu}$, $0 < \mu < N$, $\lambda$ and $k$ are some positive parameters, $p^{*}_{s,\mu}=\frac{pN-p\frac{\mu}{2}}{N-ps}$ is the critical exponent with respect to the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, and functions $V$, $M$ satisfy the suitable conditions. By proving the compactness results using the fractional version of concentration compactness principle, we establish the existence of nontrivial solutions to this problem.

1848. Nodal solutions for Neumann systems with gradient dependenceKamel Saoudi, Eadah Alzahrani, Dušan Repovš, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: We consider the following convective Neumann systems: $\begin{equation*}\left(\mathrm{S}\right)\qquad\left\{\begin{array}{ll}-\Delta_{p_1}u_1+\frac{|\nabla u_1|^{p_1}}{u_1+\delta_1}=f_1(x,u_1,u_2,\nabla u_1,\nabla u_2) \text{in}\;\Omega,\\ -\Delta _{p_2}u_2+\frac{|\nabla u_2|^{p_2}}{u_2+\delta_2}=f_2(x,u_1,u_2,\nabla u_1,\nabla u_2) \text{in}\;\Omega, \\ |\nabla u_1|^{p_1-2}\frac{\partial u_1}{\partial \eta }=0=|\nabla u_2|^{p_2-2}\frac{\partial u_2}{\partial \eta} \text{on}\;\partial\,\Omega,\end{array}\right.\end{equation*}$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ ($N\geq 2$) with a smooth boundary $\partial\,\Omega, \delta_1, \delta_2 > 0$ are small parameters, $\eta$ is the outward unit vector normal to $\partial\,\Omega, f_1, f_2: \Omega \times \mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{R}^{2N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ are Carathéodory functions that satisfy certain growth conditions, and $\Delta _{p_i}$ ($1< p_i < N,$ for $i=1,2$) are the $p$-Laplace operators $\Delta _{p_i}u_i=\mathrm{div}(|\nabla u_i|^{p_i-2}\nabla u_i)$, for $u_i \in W^{1,p_i}(\Omega).$ In order to prove the existence of solutions to such systems, we use a sub-supersolution method. We also obtain nodal solutions by constructing appropriate sub-solution and super-solution pairs. To the best of our knowledge, such systems have not been studied yet.

1849. Quasi-copulas as linear combinations of copulasGregor Dolinar, Bojan Kuzma, Nik Stopar, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: We prove that every quasi-copula can be written as a uniformly converging infinite sum of multiples of copulas. Furthermore, we characterize those quasi-copulas which can be written as a finite sum of multiples of copulas, i.e., that are a linear combination of two copulas. This generalizes a recent result of Fernández-Sánchez, Quesada-Molina, and Úbeda-Flores who considered linear combinations of discrete copulas.
