The paper deals with sigma-games on grid graphs (in dimension 2 and more) and conditions under which any completely symmetric configuration of lit vertices can be reached -- in particular the completely lit configuration -- when starting…
A one-to-one continuous function from a triangle to itself is defined that has both interesting number theoretic and analytic properties. This function is shown to be a natural generalization of the classical Minkowski ?(x) function. It is…
We compare ambient and outer Lipschitz geometry of Lipschitz normally embedded H\"older triangles in $\mathbb{R}^4$. In contrast to the case of $\mathbb{R}^3$ there are infinitely many equivalence classes. The equivalence classes are…
Among three natural numbers there is always one which is larger than or equal to the Nim sum of the remaining two numbers. This amazing fact has many applications.
Candy Nim is a variant of Nim in which both players aim to take the last candy in a game of Nim, with the added simultaneous secondary goal of taking as many candies as possible. We give bounds on the number of candies the first and second…
Given an impartial combinatorial game G, we create a class of related games (CIS-G) by specifying a finite set of positions in G and forbidding players from moving to those positions (leaving all other game rules unchanged). Such…
In harmonic superspace, the classical equations of motion of $D=4, N=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory for Minkowski and Euclidean spaces are analyzed. We study dual superfield representations of equations and subsidiary conditions…
We consider Schmidt's game on the space of compact subsets of a given metric space equipped with the Hausdorff metric, and the space of continuous functions equipped with the supremum norm. We are interested in determining the generic…
In this paper we survey various notions of anonymity and symmetry for finite strategic-form games present in relevant literature, and discuss notions of fairness; show that game bijections and game isomorphisms form groupoids; introduce…
Orthogonal projections of the uniform measure on the Sierpinski triangle form a family of self similar measures with overlaps. The main result of this work is to make a connection between the dimension theory of these measures and the…
The game of Nim, which has been well known for many years, has numerous variations. One such variation is Circular Nim, where piles of stones are arranged on a circumference, and players take stones from consecutive adjacent piles in one…
In this paper we study a family of 2-pile Take Away games, that we denote by Generalized Diagonal Wythoff Nim (GDWN). The story begins with 2-pile Nim whose sets of options and $P$-positions are $\{\{0,t\}\mid t\in \N\}$ and $\{(t,t)\mid…
We define the notion of sub-Finsler geometry as a natural generalization of sub-Riemannian geometry with applications to optimal control theory. We compute a complete set of local invariants, geodesic equations, and the Jacobi operator for…
We introduce a higher dimensional quasiregular map analogous to the trigonometric functions and we use the dynamics of this map to define, for d>1, a partition of d-dimensional Euclidean space into curves tending to infinity such that two…
We investigate Extended Geometric Trinity of Gravity at both classical and quantum cosmological levels using the minisuperspace approach. Adopting Noether symmetries to select viable models, we examine metric-affine theories of gravity, in…
We investigate the dimension of intersections of the Sierpi\'nski gasket with lines. Our first main result describes a countable, dense set of angles that are exceptional for Marstrand's theorem. We then provide a multifractal analysis for…
The notion of a Hom-Leibniz bialgebra is introduced and it is shown that matched pairs of Hom-Leibniz algebras, Manin triples of Hom-Leibniz algebras and Hom-Leibniz bialgebras are equivalent in a certain sense. The notion of Hom-Leibniz…
We find a one-to-one correspondence between full extrinsic symmetric spaces in (possibly degenerate) inner product spaces and certain algebraic objects called (weak) extrinsic symmetric triples. In particular, this yields a description of…
In this paper, we investigate the similarity transformations in the Minkowski-n space. We study the geometric invariants of non-null curves under the similarity transformations. Besides, we extend the fundamental theorem for a non-null…
In this paper, we approach the question if some of the separation axioms are equivalent in the class of asymmetric normed spaces. In particular, we make a remark on a known theorem which states that every $T_1$ asymmetric normed space with…
