In a recent paper, Bruhn, Diestel, Kriesell and Wollan (arXiv:1003.3919) present four systems of axioms for infinite matroids, in terms of independent sets, bases, closure and circuits. No system of rank axioms is given. We give an easy…
We show that inductive limits of virtually nilpotent groups have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras, extending results of the first author on solvable virtually nilpotent groups. We use this result to show that the decomposition rank of the…
In this paper, we introduce a new concept called left (right) g-MP inverse in a $*$-monoid. The relations of this type of generalized inverse with left inverse along an element are investigated. Also, the reverse order law for the inverse…
For convex sets $K$ and $L$ in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ we define $R_L(K)$ to be the convex hull of all points belonging to $K$ but not to the interior of $L$. Cutting-plane methods from integer and mixed-integer optimization can be expressed in…
Let $P\subset\R^d$ be a $d$-dimensional polytope. The {\em realization space} of~$P$ is the space of all polytopes $P'\subset\R^d$ that are combinatorially equivalent to~$P$, modulo affine transformations. We report on work by the first…
An orbit polytope is the convex hull of an orbit under a finite group $G \leq \operatorname{GL}(d,\mathbb{R})$. We develop a general theory of possible affine symmetry groups of orbit polytopes. For every group, we define an open and dense…
Let k be a field and R a pure subring of the infinite-dimensional polynomial ring k[X1;...]. If R is generated by monomials, then we show that the equality of height and grade holds for all ideals of R. Also, we show R satisfies the weak…
We prove an infinite Ramsey theorem for noncommutative graphs realized as unital self-adjoint subspaces of linear operators acting on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. Specifically, we prove that if V is such a subspace, then provided…
Bosse et al. conjectured that for every natural number $d \ge 2$ and every $d$-dimensional polytope $P$ in $\real^d$ there exist $d$ polynomials $p_0(x),...,p_{d-1}(x)$ satisfying $P=\{x \in \mathbb{R}^d : p_0(x) \ge 0, >..., p_{d-1}(x) \ge…
We say that a Hopf algebra has the Chevalley property if the tensor product of any two simple modules over this Hopf algebra is semisimple. In this paper we classify finite dimensional triangular Hopf algebras with the Chevalley property,…
B. Blackadar recently proved that any full corner $pAp$ in a unital C*-algebra $A$ has K-theoretic stable rank greater than or equal to the stable rank of $A$. (Here $p$ is a projection in $A$, and fullness means that $ApA=A$.) This result…
Border bases arise as a canonical generalization of Gr\"obner bases. We provide a polyhedral characterization of all order ideals (and hence border bases) that are supported by a zero-dimensional ideal: order ideals that support a border…
Let $p$ be a prime number. Every $n$-variable polynomial $f(\underline x)$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ defines an Artin--Schreier--Witt tower of varieties whose Galois group is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Our goal of this…
This paper provides full \Matlab-code and informal correctness proofs for the lexicographic reverse search algorithm for convex hull calculations. The implementation was tested on a 1993 486-PC for various small and some larger, partially…
OSCAR is an innovative new computer algebra system which combines and extends the power of its four cornerstone systems - GAP (group theory), Singular (algebra and algebraic geometry), Polymake (polyhedral geometry), and Antic (number…
We give an explicit combinatorial description of the two-dimensional faces of both the order polytope $\mathcal{O}(P)$ and the chain polytope $\mathcal{C}(P)$ of a partially ordered set $P$. Using these descriptions, we show that for any…
We use height arguments to prove two results about the dynamical Mordell-Lang problem. (i) For an endomorphism of a projective variety, the return set of a dense orbit into a curve is finite if any cohomological Lyapunov multiplier of any…
For a unital ring R, a Sylvester rank function is a numerical invariant which can be described in 3 equivalent ways: on finitely presented left R-modules, or on rectangular matrices over R, or on maps between finitely generated projective…
The Tutte polynomial is a significant invariant of graphs and matroids. It is well-known that it has three equivalent definitions: bases expansion, rank generating function, and deletion-contraction formula. The polymatroid Tutte polynomial…
Polypolyhedra are edge-transitive compounds of polyhedra. In this paper we use group theory to determine the number of distinct polypolyhedra whose symmetry group is any given finite irreducible Coxeter group. We apply this result in order…
