The concept of separation by hyperplanes is fundamental for convex geometry and its tropical (max-plus) analogue. However, analogous separation results in max-min convex geometry are based on semispaces. This paper answers the question…

Let $ l =[l_0,l_1]$ be the directed line segment from $l_0\in {\mathbb R}^n$ to $l_1\in{\mathbb R}^n.$ Suppose $\bar l=[\bar l_0,\bar l_1]$ is a second segment of equal length such that $l, \bar l$ satisfy the "two sticks condition": $\|…

We characterize embedded $\C^1$ hypersurfaces of $\R^n$ as the only locally closed sets with continuously varying flat tangent cones whose measure-theoretic-multiplicity is at most $m<3/2$. It follows then that any (topological)…

Given a matching $M$ in the hypercube $Q^n$, the \emph{profile} of $M$ is the vector $\boldsymbol{x}=(x_1,\ldots, x_n) \in \mathbb{N}^n$ such that $M$ contains $x_i$ edges whose endpoints differ in the $i$th coordinate. If $M$ is a perfect…

We provide a Sandwich Theorem (K\"onig (1972)) for positively homogeneous functionals that satisfy additivity only on a restricted domain. Our relaxation of additivity is based on a binary relation called convex-conic symmetric preorder,…

Arguably, the most important open problem in the theory of $q$-analogs of designs is the question for the existence of a $q$-analog $D$ of the Fano plane. It is undecided for every single prime power value $q \geq 2$. A point $P$ is called…

We consider holomorphic mappings $H$ between a smooth real hypersurface $M\subset \bC^{n+1}$ and another $M'\subset \bC^{N+1}$ with $N\geq n$. We provide conditions guaranteeing that $H$ is transversal to $M'$ along all of $M$. In the…

One of our result is that 5 measurable sets in $R^8$ always admit an equipartition by 2 hyperplanes. This is an instance of a general equipartition problem (formulated by B. Gr{\" u}nbaum and H. Hadwiger) which can be reduced to the…

Understanding the structure of indecomposable $n$-dimensional persistence modules is a difficult problem, yet is foundational for studying multipersistence. To this end, Buchet and Escolar showed that any finitely presented rectangular…

We study edge-isoperimetric inequalities in chamber graphs of affine hyperplane arrangements. Our approach is topological: to a set of chambers we associate its thickening in Euclidean space and estimate its edge boundary through the…

The purpose of this article is to show uniqueness theorems for meromorphic mappings of C^m to CP^n with few hyperplanes H_j, j=1,...,q. It is well known that uniqueness theorems hold for q \geq 3n+2. In this paper we show that for every…

The largest possible average diameter of a bounded cell of a simple hyperplane arrangement is conjectured to be not greater than the dimension. We prove that this conjecture holds in dimension 2, and is asymptotically tight in fixed…

The permutohedron $P_n$ of order $n$ is a polytope embedded in $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose vertex coordinates are permutations of the first $n$ natural numbers. It is obvious that $P_n$ lies on the hyperplane $H_n$ consisting of points whose…

The \emph{relative projection constant} $\lambda(Y, X)$ of normed spaces $Y \subset X$ is defined as $\lambda(Y, X) = \inf \{ ||P|| : P \in \mathcal{P}(X, Y) \}$, where $\mathcal{P}(X, Y)$ denotes the set of all continuous projections from…
