In order to resolve the hierarchy problem, large extra dimensions have been introduced, and it has been suggested that the size of extra dimensions is sub-millimeter. On the other hand, we assume in this paper that the cosmological constant…

The higher dimensional cosmology provides a natural setting to treat, at a classical level, the cosmological effects of vacuum energy. Here we discuss two situations where starting with an ordinary matter field without any equation of state…

We explain the role of the boundary motive in the construction of certain Chow motives, and of extensions of Chow motives. Our two main examples concern proper, singular surfaces and fibre products of a universal elliptic curve.

We are answering the question why 4-dimensional space has the metric 1+3 by making a general argument from a certain type of equations of motion linear in momentum for any spin (except spin zero) in any even dimension d. All known free…

We propose a generalization of Ledet conjecture, which predicts the essential dimension of cyclic $p$-groups in characteristic $p$, for finite commutative unipotent group schemes. And we show some evidence and some consequences of this new…

The cognitive framework of conceptual spaces [3] provides geometric means for representing knowledge. A conceptual space is a high-dimensional space whose dimensions are partitioned into so-called domains. Within each domain, the Euclidean…

Using an iterative tree construction we show that for simple computable subsets of the Cantor space Hausdorff, constructive and computable dimensions might be incomputable.

We consider the problem of maximizing the volume of hermitian ellipsoids inscribed in a given pseudoconvex domain in complex Euclidean space. We prove existence and uniqueness, and give a characterization of the maximizer.

For a finite partially ordered set we calculate the dimension of the variety of its subspace representations having fixed dimension vector. The dimension is given in terms of the Euler quadratic form associated with a partially ordered set,…

Let D be a Hartogs domain of the form D={(z,w) \in CxC^N : |w| < e^{-u(z)}} where u is a subharmonic function on C. We prove that the Bergman space of holomorphic and square integrable functions on D is either trivial or infinite…

We show that the problem whether a given finite metric space can be embedded into $m$-dimensional rectilinear space can be reformulated in terms of the Gromov--Hausdorff distance between some special finite metric spaces.

We propose that the effective dimensionality of the space we live in depends on the length scale we are probing. As the length scale increases, new dimensions open up. At short scales the space is lower dimensional; at the intermediate…

In this paper, we define asymptotic dimension of fuzzy metric spaces in the sense of George and Veeramini. We prove that asymptotic dimension is an invariant in the coarse category of fuzzy metric spaces. We also show several consequences…

We discuss essential dimension of group schemes, with particular attention to infinitesimal group schemes. We prove that the essential dimension of a group scheme of finite type over a field k is at least equal to the difference between the…

In a general triangulated category, the finiteness of the finitistic dimension serves as a prerequisite for a categorical obstruction, via the singularity category, to the existence of bounded $t$-structures. In this paper, we investigate…

We prove that the transcendental motive of any quasi elliptic surface is trivial. To prove this, we focus on the uniruledness of quasi elliptic surfaces.

A metric space is indivisible if for any partition of it into finitely many pieces one piece contains an isometric copy of the whole space. Continuing our investigation of indivisible metric spaces, we show that a countable ultrametric…

We find the complete rational homology for the finite subset spaces of a $d$-dimensional sphere. We also determine the integral homology in top $d$ degrees and obtain a partial description of it in codimension $d$.

The intermediate dimensions are a family of dimensions which interpolate between the Hausdorff and box dimensions of sets. We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a given function $h(\theta)$ to be realized as the intermediate…

We introduce a fractal dimension for a metric space defined in terms of the persistent homology of extremal subsets of that space. We exhibit hypotheses under which this dimension is comparable to the upper box dimension; in particular, the…
