The matching complex of a simple graph $G$ is a simplicial complex consisting of the matchings on $G$. Jeli\'c Milutinovi\'c et al. studied the matching complexes of the polygonal line tilings, and they gave a lower bound for the…

We give new lower bounds for the (higher) topological complexity of a space, in terms of the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a certain auxiliary space. We also give new lower bounds for the rational topological complexity of a space, and…

This note collects a number of standard statements in Riemannian geometry and in Sobolev-space theory that play a prominent role in analytic approaches to symplectic topology. These include relations between connections and complex…

We prove Cuntz-Krieger and graded uniqueness theorems for Steinberg algebras. We also show that a Steinberg algebra is basically simple if and only if its associated groupoid is both effective and minimal. Finally we use results of…

Topological properties of networks are widely applied to study the link-prediction problem recently. Common Neighbors, for example, is a natural yet efficient framework. Many variants of Common Neighbors have been thus proposed to further…

We prove that the geodesic complexity of a regular tetrahedron exceeds its topological complexity by 1 or 2. The proof involves a careful analysis of minimal geodesics on the tetrahedron.

Although information content is invariant up to an additive constant, the range of possible additive constants applicable to programming languages is so large that in practice it plays a major role in the actual evaluation of K(s), the…

In this article we introduce a definition of topological minimal sets, which is a generalization of that of Mumford-Shah-minimal sets. We prove some general properties as well as two existence theorems for topological minimal sets. As an…

Many versions of the Stokes theorem are known. More advanced of them require complicated mathematical machinery to be formulated which discourages the users. Our theorem is sufficiently simple to suit the handbooks and yet it is pretty…

We introduce the topological complexity of the work map associated to a robot system. In broad terms, this measures the complexity of any algorithm controlling, not just the motion of the configuration space of the given system, but the…

We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…

Many algorithms in scientific computing and data science take advantage of low-rank approximation of matrices and kernels, and understanding why nearly-low-rank structure occurs is essential for their analysis and further development. This…

We present a simple and clear foundation for finite inference that unites and significantly extends the approaches of Kolmogorov and Cox. Our approach is based on quantifying lattices of logical statements in a way that satisfies general…

We define a class of probability distributions that we call simplicial mixture models, inspired by simplicial complexes from algebraic topology. The parameters of these distributions represent their topology and we show that it is possible…

We study the relations between the notions of highness, lowness and logical depth in the setting of complexity theory. We introduce a new notion of polylog depth based on time bounded Kolmogorov complexity. We show polylog depth satisfies…

The (prefix-free) Kolmogorov complexity of a finite binary string is the length of the shortest description of the string. This gives rise to some `standard' lowness notions for reals: A is K-trivial if its initial segments have the lowest…

Simplicial arrangements are classical objects in discrete geometry. Their classification remains an open problem but there is a list conjectured to be complete at least for rank three. A further important class in the theory of hyperplane…
