We construct "large" Cantor sets whose complements resemble the unit disk arbitrarily well from the point of view of the squeezing function, and we construct "large" Cantor sets whose complements do not resemble the unit disk from the point…

The formation mechanisms of merging binary black holes (BBHs) observed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration remain uncertain. Detectable eccentricity provides a powerful diagnostic for distinguishing between different formation channels,…

Black hole (BH) triples represent one of the astrophysical pathways for BH mergers in the Universe detectable by LIGO and VIRGO. We study the formation of BH triples via binary-binary encounters in dense clusters, showing that one-third of…

Biracks and biquandles, which are useful for studying the knot theory, are special families of solutions of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation. A homology theory for the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter equation was developed by Carter,…

Let $K$ be a nontrivial knot. For each $n\in \mathbb{N}$, we prove that the rank of its $n$th iterated Whitehead doubled knot group $\pi_1(S^3 \setminus \operatorname{WD}^n(K))$ is bounded below by $n+1$. As an application, we show that…

We prove upper and lower bounds for the Lebesgue measure of the set of products $xy$ with $x$ and $y$ in the middle-third Cantor set. Our method is inspired by Athreya, Reznick and Tyson, but a different subdivision of the Cantor set…

Rigid tree honeycombs were introduced by Knutson, Tao, and Woodward and they were shown by Dykema, Collins, Timotin, and the authors to be sums of extreme rigid honeycombs, with uniquely determined summands up to permutations. Two extreme…

From the point of view of optimization, a critical issue is relating the combinatorial diameter of a polyhedron to its number of facets $f$ and dimension $d$. In the seminal paper of Klee and Walkup [KW67], the Hirsch conjecture of an upper…

Betten and Riesinger constructed Parallelisms of $\mathop{\rm PG}(3,\mathbb R)$ with automorphism group $\mathop{\rm SO}(3,\mathbb R)$ by applying the reducible $\mathop{\rm SO}(3,\mathbb R)$-action to a rotational Betten spread. This was…

We give sufficient conditions for two Cantor sets of the line to be nested for a positive set of translation parameters. This problem occurs in diophantine approximations. It also occurs as a toy model of the parameter selection for…

The existence of two different Cantor sets, one of them contained in the set of Liouville numbers and the other one inside the set of Diophantine numbers, is proved. Finally, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a…

The aim of this paper is to present a construction of $t$-divisible designs for $t>3$, because such divisible designs seem to be missing in the literature. To this end, tools such as finite projective spaces and their algebraic varieties…

Knoblauch (2014) and Knoblauch (2015) investigate the relative size of the collection of binary relations with desirable features as compared to the set of all binary relations using symmetric difference metric (Cantor) topology and…

We construct a class of homogeneous Cantor-Moran measures with all contraction ratios being reciprocal of integers, and prove that they are pointwise absolutely normal. Our approach relies on methods developed by Davenport, Erd{\H{o}}s, and…

In this paper we discuss several variations and generalizations of the Cantor set and study some of their properties. Also for each of those generalizations a Cantor-like function can be constructed from the set. We will discuss briefly the…

The notions of special and extraspecial pairs of roots were introduced by Carter for calculating structure constants, [Ca72]. Let $\{r, s\}$ be a special pair of roots for which the structure constant $N(r,s)$ is sought, and let $\{r_1,…

In this paper we prove that among pairs $K,\,K' \subset \mathbb{C}$ of conformal dynamically defined Cantor sets with sum of Hausdorff dimensions $HD(K)+HD(K')>2$, there is an open and dense subset of such pairs verifying…

We introduce a connection between Newhouse thickness and patterns through a variant of Schmidt's game introduced by Broderick, Fishman and Simmons. This yields an explicit, robust and checkable condition that ensures the presence of…

This paper explores a full generalization of the classical corner-vector method for constructing weighted spherical designs, which we call the {\it generalized corner-vector method}. First we establish a uniform upper bound for the degree…

In this paper, we analyze the complexity of topological conjugacy of pointed Cantor minimal systems from the point of view of descriptive set theory. We prove that the topological conjugacy relation on pointed Cantor minimal systems is…
