These informal notes, not intended for publication, provide an approach to the Borsuk--Ulam theorem via Stokes' theorem, in a similar spirit to Lima's proof of the Brouwer fixed point theorem. They are intended to be accessible to anyone…

The purpose of this paper is to present some multidimensional fixed-point theorems and their applications. For this, we provide a multidimensional fixed point theorem and then using this theorem we prove the existence and uniqueness of a…

Herbrand's theorem plays an important role both in proof theory and in computer science. Given a Herbrand skeleton, which is basically a number specifying the count of disjunctions of the matrix, we would like to get a computable bound on…

For any particularly interesting theorem one proof is never enough. Instead, the first proof sets the challenge to find a more elegant method that illuminates subtle features of the math, is simpler to understand, or even avoids using…

Hindman's Theorem is a prototypical example of a combinatorial theorem with a proof that uses the topology of the ultrafilters. We show how the methods of this proof, including topological arguments about ultrafilters, can be translated…

In the context of categories equipped with a structure of nullhomotopies, we introduce the notion of homotopy torsion theory. As special cases, we recover pretorsion theories as well as torsion theories in multi-pointed categories and in…

Here, by introducing a version of Unexpected hanging paradox first we try to open a new way and a new explanation for paradoxes, similar to liar paradox. Also, we will show that we have a semantic situation which no syntactical logical…

We use reverse mathematics to analyze "iterated jump" versions of the following four principles: the atomic model theorem with subenumerable types (AST), the diagonally noncomputable principle (DNR), weak weak K\H{o}nig's lemma (WWKL), and…

This is an exposition of facts about Arithmetic with an approach via mathematical logic. In Section 1 we present Peano Arithmetic, PA, and the complete theory of $\mathbb{N}$, and we show that $\mathbb{N}$ is a prime model of the theory of…

This dissertation presents new results on three different themes all related to matroid polytopes. First we investigate properties of Ehrhart polynomials of matroid polytopes, independence matroid polytopes, and polymatroids. We prove that…

We consider a class of formula equations in first-order logic, Horn formula equations, which are defined by a syntactic restriction on the occurrences of predicate variables. Horn formula equations play an important role in many…

Padberg introduced a geometric notion of ranks for (mixed) integer rational polyhedrons and conjectured that the geometric rank of the matching polytope is one. In this work, we prove that this conjecture is true.

Using the concepts of Hyperbolic Classification of Natural Numbers, Essential Regions and Goldbach Conjecture Function we prove that the existence of a proof of the Goldbach Conjecture in First-Order Arithmetic would imply the existence of…

We provide game-theoretic proofs of some well-known existence theorems of Friedberg numberings for the class of all partial computable functions, including (1) the existence of two incomparable Friedberg numberings; (2) the existence of a…

In the paper "Uniformity of Mordell-Lang" by Vesselin Dimitrov, Philipp Habegger and Ziyang Gao (arXiv:2001.10276), they use Silverman-Tate's Height Inequality and they give a proof of the same which makes use of Cartier divisors and hence…
