In the generality of a rigidly-compactly generated tensor triangulated category, we introduce semi-Bousfield classes in terms of the vanishing of the tensor product in positive degrees with respect to a fixed reasonable $t$-structure. We…

In this paper, we answer negatively to a question posed in the context of the 2025 Oberwolfach Mini-Workshop ``The Yang-Baxter Equation and Representations of Braid Groups'' regarding the existence of split extensions classifiers in the…

The term Gibbons conjecture is widely used in connection with symmetry results for the Allen-Cahn equation. However, its origin is less transparent than its frequent citation suggests. In this note, we revisit its emergence, tracing it to a…

In this short note we give a negative answer to the following open question: \emph{Let $X$ be a $\sigma$-compact paratopological group. Does there exist a continuous isomorphism of $X$ onto a topological group $G$?} Specifically, we…

This article is a generalization of a result in Quillen's note ``Module theory over non-unital rings'' giving a one-to-one correspondence between bilocalization of abelian categories of modules and idempotent ideals of the base ring.…

K. S. S. Nambooripad introduced an interesting class of categories known as normal categories, which are categories with subobjects, morphisms admitting factorization and having sufficiently many cones. These normal categories plays…

In one of his posthumous papers, conserved in G\"ottingen, Riemann considers the derivatives of $\log\zeta(s)$ at the point $1/2$, giving explicit values for them. Around 2010 we shared Riemann's value of the second derivative with some…

We establish the equivalence between models of enhanced $2$-sketches and algebras over monads, including the (co)lax morphisms. More precisely, for any enhanced limit $2$-sketch $\mathbb{T}$ with tight cones, the enhanced $2$-category…

We extend a property of Mazzola's theory of cadential sets in relation to the modulation between minor and major tonalities from triadic to tetradic harmony, using the PLRQ group of Cannas et al. (2017) as the analogue of the classical PLR…

In this paper, we explore the connections between Christiaan Huygens and Niels Henrik Abel through the tautochrone problem. The problem -- determining the curve along which a particle descends under gravity in the same time, regardless of…

We investigate a new notion of regularity for tensor triangulated categories, called residual regularity. We show that residual regularity descends and ascends via finite separable extensions and we classify all finite groups whose derived…

Drawing on well-known results from the theory of canonical extensions and the theory of categories enriched over a quantale, we define canonical extensions of quantale-enriched categories and establish their basic properties.

Lezama \cite{LezamaLatorre2017} introduced the notion of semi-graded ring with the aim of generalizing $\mathbb{Z}$-graded rings and several families of noncommutative rings of polynomial type non-$\mathbb{N}$-graded such as the skew…

We investigate the local topological structure of non-metrizable topological groups through the lens of Tukey order and cofinal types. Motivated by recent advances in topological groups admitting an $\omega^\omega$-base, we introduce the…

This paper discusses digital online mathematics examinations -- a discussion ranging from high school to university level examinations. In particular, we consider the nature of mathematical writing, what is distinctive about mathematical…

We trace a conceptual genealogy from Abraham de Moivre's derivation of the normal curve (1733) to the modern distributional approach to statistics. De Moivre's Approximatio ad Summam Terminorum Binomii gave the first systematic derivation…

In the philosophical tradition of `analytic pragmatism', which attempts to account for linguistic meanings in terms of their practices of use, logical expressivism is a theory which offers a distinct perspective on logic. We shed light on…

A limit of a (small) diagram $d : J \to E$ in a complete category $E$ can be thought of as specifying a set of equations involving the objects of $E$. To motivate this intuitively, one can think of each object $d(j)$ as a "variable" and…

Let $G$ be a compact group. The existence of certain $G$-homotopy dense subsets in a metrizable $G$-space $X$ plays a fundamental role, as it is equivalent to $X$ being a $G$-ANR. From this perspective, the present paper develops several…

K\"unzi and Yildiz introduced convexity structures in the sense of Takahashi for $T_{0}$-quasi-metric spaces. In this article, we continue this line of study on the Isbell-convex hull of an asymmetrically normed real vector space. Using the…
