We identify the finite list of minimal analytic n-gaps which are not countably separated, and we prove that every analytic n-gap which is not countably separated contains a gap from our finite list.
In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…
This is a survey on the finite basis problem for varieties of algebraic systems. Our exposition is in two directions: (i) We give numerous examples of varieties which are not finitely based. (ii) We give examples of important varieties with…
Given a rational elliptic surface X over an algebraically closed field, we investigate whether a given natural number k can be the intersection number of two sections of X. If not, we say that k a gap number. We try to answer when gap…
We call a finite undirected graph minimally k-matchable if it has at least k distinct perfect matchings but deleting any edge results in a graph which has not. An odd subdivision of some graph G is any graph obtained by replacing every edge…
Given a finite set of points $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a $k$-set of $S$ is a subset $A \subset S$ of size $k$ which can be strictly separated from $S \setminus A $ by a hyperplane. Similarly, a $k$-facet of a point set $S$ in general position…
For all $k \geq 1$, we show that deciding whether a graph is $k$-planar is NP-complete, extending the well-known fact that deciding 1-planarity is NP-complete. Furthermore, we show that the gap version of this decision problem is…
Many deep, mysterious connections have been observed between collections of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) and combinatorial designs called $k$-nets (and in particular, between complete collections of MUBs and finite affine - or…
We initiate the study of a new parameterization of graph problems. In a multiple interval representation of a graph, each vertex is associated to at least one interval of the real line, with an edge between two vertices if and only if an…
We show that if the ground set of a matroid can be partitioned into $k\ge 2$ bases, then for any given subset $S$ of the ground set, there is a partition into $k$ bases such that the sizes of the intersections of the bases with $S$ may…
A_k = {1, a_2, ... a_k} is an h-basis for n if every positive integer not exceeding n can be expressed as the sum of no more than h values a_i. An extremal h-basis A_k is one for which n is as large as possible. Computing extremal bases has…
In this paper, we prove that the numerical-semigroup-gap counting problem is #NP-complete as a main theorem. A numerical semigroup is an additive semigroup over the set of all nonnegative integers. A gap of a numerical semigroup is defined…
Associated to a graph $G$ is a set $\mathcal{S}(G)$ of all real-valued symmetric matrices whose off-diagonal entries are nonzero precisely when the corresponding vertices of the graph are adjacent, and the diagonal entries are free to be…
In this short note, we provide the necessary and sufficient condition for an infinite collection of axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ to be pierceable by finitely many axis-parallel $k$-flats, where $0 \leq k < d$. We also consider…
Let $X=\mathcal{M}(A)$ be an affinoid space and let $f,g \in A$. We study the sets of connected components of the spaces defined by an inequality of the form $|f|\le r|g|$, with $r\ge 0$. We prove that there exists a finite partition of…
We introduce a variant of homotopy K-theory for Tate rings, which we call analytic K-theory. It is homotopy invariant with respect to the analytic affine line viewed as an ind-object of closed disks of increasing radii. Under a certain…
Given an $n$-ary $k-$valued function $f$, $gap(f)$ denotes the minimal number of essential variables in $f$ which become fictive when identifying any two distinct essential variables in $f$. We particularly solve a problem concerning the…
Given a positive integer k, we investigate the class of numerical semigroups verifying the property that every two subsequent non gaps, smaller than the conductor, are spaced by at least k. These semigroups will be called k-sparse and…
Recently, the first two authors proved the Alon-Jaeger-Tarsi conjecture on non-vanishing linear maps, for large primes. We extend their ideas to address several other related conjectures. We prove the weak Additive Basis conjecture proposed…
Let $\mathbf{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, complete with respect to a non-archimedean absolute value $|\,|$. We establish a Second Main Theorem type estimate for analytic map $f\colon…
