Let $G$ be a word hyperbolic group in the sense of Gromov and $P$ its associated Rips complex. We prove that the fixed point set $P^H$ is contractible for every finite subgroups $H$ of $G$. This is the main ingredient for proving that $P$…

Let $q$ be a non-negative integer. We prove that a perfect field $K$ has cohomological dimension at most $q+1$ if, and only if, for any finite extension $L$ of $K$ and for any homogeneous space $Z$ under a smooth linear connected algebraic…

An important problem in combinatorial noncommutative algebra is to characterize the growth functions of finitely generated algebras (equivalently, semigroups, or hereditary languages). The growth function of every finitely generated,…

Given a graph $G$, the NP-hard Maximum Planar Subgraph problem asks for a planar subgraph of $G$ with the maximum number of edges. The only known non-trivial exact algorithm utilizes Kuratowski's famous planarity criterion and can be…

Motivated by classical work of Alon and F\"uredi, we introduce and address the following problem: determine the minimum number of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ needed to cover every point of the triangular grid $T_d(n) :=…

The paper addresses the doubly elliptic eigenvalue problem $$\begin{cases} -\Delta u=\lambda u \qquad &\text{in $\Omega$,}\\ u=0 &\text{on $\Gamma_0$,}\\ -\Delta_\Gamma u +\partial_\nu u =\lambda u\qquad &\text{on $\Gamma_1$,} \end{cases}…

Boundary value problems for integrable nonlinear evolution PDEs formulated on the finite interval can be analyzed by the unified method introduced by one of the authors and used extensively in the literature. The implementation of this…

We show that modularity and the gap condition make the holomorphic anomaly equation completely integrable for non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. This leads to a very efficient formalism to solve the topological string on these geometries in…

It was recently determined exactly through how many general points a nondegenerate curve with nonspecial hyperplane section can pass. This gives rise to a method of constructing reducible curves $C_1 \cup_\Gamma C_2 \to \mathbb{P}^r$ with…

We consider a family of optimal control problems in the plane with dynamics and running costs possibly discontinuous across a two-scale oscillatory interface. Typically, the amplitude of the oscillations is of the order of $\epsilon$ while…

We examine sets of lines in PG(d,F) meeting each hyperplane in a generator set of points. We prove that such a set has to contain at least 1.5d lines if the field F has more than 1.5d elements, and at least 2d-1 lines if the field F is…
