We give an elementary obstruction to reducibility for knotted surfaces in the four-sphere. As a new application, we construct stably irreducible non-orientable surfaces.

In standard bootstrap percolation, a subset A of the n x n grid is initially infected. A new site is then infected if at least two of its neighbours are infected, and an infected site stays infected forever. The set A is said to percolate…

In this note, we give sufficient conditions for the (semi)stability of a hypersurface $H$ of $\mathbb{P}^N_k$ in terms of its degree $d$, the maximal multiplicity $\delta$ of its singularities, and the dimension $s$ of its singular locus.…

Let $d$ and $n$ be natural numbers greater or equal to $2$. Let $\langle \boldsymbol{a}, \nu_{d,n}(\boldsymbol{x})\rangle\in \mathbb{Z}[\boldsymbol{x}]$ be a homogeneous polynomial in $n$ variables of degree $d$ with integer coefficients…

Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a vector bundle on a smooth projective variety $X\subseteq\mathbb{P}^N$ that is Ulrich with respect to the hyperplane section $H$. In this article, we study the Koszul property of $\mathcal{E}$, the slope-semistability…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, in general position. We remove all of them one by one, in each step erasing one vertex of the convex hull of the current remaining set. Let $g_d(P)$ denote the number of different removal…

For a positive integer n, we denote by SUB (resp., SUBn) the class of all lattices that can be embedded into the lattice Co(P) of all order-convex subsets of a partially ordered set P (resp., P of length at most n). We prove the following…

Consider a distribution of pebbles on a graph. A pebbling move removes two pebbles from a vertex and place one at an adjacent vertex. A vertex is reachable under a pebble distribution if it has a pebble after the application of a sequence…

We provide an alternative proof of the theorem saying that any Va\v{s}\'ak (or, weakly countably determined) Banach space admits a full $1$-projectional skeleton. The proof is done with the use of the method of elementary submodels and is…

In this paper we construct indecomposable vector bundles associated to monads on Cartesian products of odd dimension projective spaces. Specifically we establish the existence of monads on…

The purpose of this paper is to study stable representations of partially ordered sets (posets) and compare it to the well known theory for quivers. In particular, we prove that every indecomposable representation of a poset of finite type…

Let n be any integer greater than two. We prove that there exists a projection P having the following properties. (1) P is not the projection of any unknotted knot. (2) The singular point set of P consists of double points. (3) P is the…

We show that the Hodge and pole order filtrations are globally different for sufficiently general singular projective hypersurfaces in case the degree is 3 or 4 assuming the dimension of the projective space is at least 5 or 3 respectively.…

We prove that given any set of $n$ unit vectors $\{v_i\}_{i=1}^{n}\subset \mathbb R^n,$ the inequality \[ \sup\limits_{\Vert x \Vert_{\mathbb R^n} =1} \vert \langle x, v_1 \rangle \cdots \langle x, v_n\rangle\vert \ge n^{-n/2} \] holds for…

For a planar point-set $P$, let D(P) be the minimum number of pairwise-disjoint empty disks such that each point in $P$ lies on the boundary of some disk. Further define D(n) as the maximum of D(P) over all n-element point sets. Hosono and…

We study the minimal free resolution of the Veronese modules of the polynomial ring in n variables, by giving a formula for the Betti numbers in terms of the reduced homology of some skeleton of a simplicial complex. We characterize when…

In this note we show that every discrete polymatroid is $M$-shellable. This gives, in a partial case, a positive answer to a conjecture of Chari and improves a recent result of Schweig where he proved that the $h$-vector of a lattice path…

The main goal of this paper is to show that shellability is NP-hard for triangulated d-balls (this also gives hardness for triangulated d-manifolds/d-pseudomanifolds with boundary) as soon as d is at least 3. This extends our earlier work…

Let $f(n)$ be the largest integer such that every poset on $n$ elements has a $2$-dimensional subposet on $f(n)$ elements. What is the asymptotics of $f(n)$? It is easy to see that $f(n)\geqslant n^{1/2}$. We improve the best known upper…

We formulate several conjectures which shed light on the structure of Veronese syzygies of projective spaces. Our conjectures are based on experimental data that we derived by developing a numerical linear algebra and distributed…
