We develop a method that we call \emph{omission of intervals}, for establishing topological properties of subsets of the real line based on their combinatorial structure. Using this method, we obtain conceptual proofs of the fundamental…
Using the notion of existentially closed structures, we obtain embedding theorems for groups and Lie algebras. We also prove the existence of some groups and Lie algebras with prescribed properties.
This note presents an approach to studying the iterates of a mapping whose restriction to the complement of a finite set is continuous and open. The main examples to which the approach can be applied are piecewise monotone mappings defined…
This thesis deals with the enumerative study of combinatorial maps, and its application to the enumeration of other combinatorial objects. Combinatorial maps, or simply maps, form a rich combinatorial model. They have an intuitive and…
Unimodal (i.e. single-humped) permutations may be decomposed into a product of disjoint cycles. Some enumerative results concerning their cyclic structure -- e.g. 2/3 of them contain fixed points -- are given. We also obtain in effect a…
In this paper, we survey some properties, encoding, and bijections involving combinatorial maps, double occurrence words, and chord diagrams. We particularly study quasi-trees from a purely combinatorial point of view and derive a…
We study countable embedding-universal and homomorphism-universal structures and unify results related to both of these notions. We show that many universal and ultrahomogeneous structures allow a concise description (called here a finite…
We study methods for learning sentence embeddings with syntactic structure. We focus on methods of learning syntactic sentence-embeddings by using a multilingual parallel-corpus augmented by Universal Parts-of-Speech tags. We evaluate the…
This paper have two parts. In the first part we discuss word embeddings. We discuss the need for them, some of the methods to create them, and some of their interesting properties. We also compare them to image embeddings and see how word…
We consider a general concept of composition and decomposition of objects, and discuss a few natural properties one may expect from a reasonable choice thereof. It will be demonstrated how this leads to multiplication and co- multiplication…
This chapter is an introduction to the connection between random matrices and maps, i.e graphs drawn on surfaces. We concentrate on the one-matrix model and explain how it encodes and allows to solve a map enumeration problem.
Using experimental techniques, we study properties of the "circumcenter map", which, upon $n$ iterations sends an $n$-gon to a scaled and rotated copy of itself. We also explore the topology of area-expanding and area-contracting regions…
We introduce and study modular truncations of the Ackermann function viewed as self-maps on finite rings. These maps form a hierarchy of rapidly increasing compositional complexity indexed by recursion depth. We investigate their structural…
We consider the simplest gauge theories given by one- and two- matrix integrals and concentrate on their stringy and geometric properties. We remind general integrable structure behind the matrix integrals and turn to the geometric…
We study properties of a map from a certain unitary group in $n$ variables to a related unitary group in $\binom{n}{k}$ variables. We explain how it gives rise to a map between canonical models of Shimura varieties and we prove that it…
Given a reflection group $G$ acting on a complex vector space $V$, a reflection map is the composition of an embedding $X \hookrightarrow V$ with the orbit map $V\to\mathbb C^p$ that maps a $G$-orbit to a point. Reflection maps can be very…
Regular hypermaps with underlying simple hypergraphs are analysed. We obtain an algorithm to classify the regular embeddings of simple hypergraphs with given order, and determine the automorphism groups of regular embedding of simple…
We define and study complex structures and generalizations on spaces consisting of geodesics or harmonic maps that are compatible with the symmetries of these spaces. The main results are about existence and uniqueness of such structures.
We study links between first-order formulas and arbitrary properties for families of theories, classes of structures and their isomorphism types. Possibilities for ranks and degrees for formulas and theories with respect to given properties…
We give a complete characterization of a circle immersion that can be divided into two arc embeddings in terms of its chord diagram.
