An infinite regular three-dimensional network is composed of identical resistors each of resistance joining adjacent nodes. What is the equivalent resistance between the lattice site and the lattice site, when two bonds are removed from the…
The minimal vertex-cover (or maximal independent-set) problem is studied on random graphs of finite connectivity. Analytical results are obtained by a mapping to a lattice gas of hard spheres of (chemical) radius one, and they are found to…
The simple cubic lattice defines a set of points at regular distances. The volume of the Voronoi cells around each point may serve as a weight for integration over the entire space. We add interstitial points to this grid according to the…
A lattice model of radiative decay (so-called spin-boson model) of a two level atom and at most two photons is considered. The location of the essential spectrum is described. For any coupling constant the finiteness of the number of…
In set theory without the Axiom of Choice (AC), we observe new relations of the following statements with weak choice principles. 1. Every locally finite connected graph has a maximal independent set. 2. Every locally countable connected…
Let $\lambda$ and $\kappa$ be cardinal numbers such that $\kappa$ is infinite and either $2\leq \lambda\leq \kappa$, or $\lambda=2^\kappa$. We prove that there exists a lattice $L$ with exactly $\lambda$ many congruences, $2^\kappa$ many…
Suppose L and M are full-rank lattices in Euclidean space, such that vol(L) < vol(M). Answering a question of Han and Wang from 2001, we show how to construct a bounded measurable set F (we can even take F to be a finite union of polytopes)…
Recall that a subset $X$ of a group $G$ is 'product-free' if $X^2\cap X=\varnothing$, ie if $xy\notin X$ for all $x,y\in X$. Let $G$ be a group definable in a distal structure. We prove there are constants $c>0$ and $\delta\in(0,1)$ such…
For an integer $n\geq 2$, let NCSL$(n)$ denote the set of sizes of congruence lattices of $n$-element semilattices. We find the four largest numbers belonging to NCSL$(n)$, provided that $n$ is large enough to ensure that $|$NCSL$(n)|\geq…
It is shown that the numbers $c_i$ of chains of length $i$ in the proper part $L\setminus\{0,1\}$ of a distributive lattice $L$ of length $\ell +2$ satisfy the inequalities $$c_0<...<c_{\lfloor{\ell /2}\rfloor} \quad{and}\quad c_{\lfloor{3…
In the present paper we introduce and study finite point subsets of a special kind, called optimum distributions, in the n-dimensional unit cube. Such distributions are closely related with known (delta,s,n)-nets of low discrepancy. It…
The set of all cancellable elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties has recently been shown to be countably infinite. But the description of all cancellable elements of the lattice $\mathbb{MON}$ of monoid varieties remains unknown.…
We completely determine upper-modular, codistributive and costandard elements in the lattice of all commutative semigroup varieties. In particular, we prove that the properties of being upper-modular and codistributive elements in the…
We prove that the very simple lattices which consist of a largest, a smallest and $2n$ pairwise incomparable elements where $n$ is a positive integer can be realized as the lattices of intermediate subfactors of finite index and finite…
For a given complete lattice L, we investigate whether L can be decomposed as a direct product of directly indecomposable lattices. We prove that this is the case if every element of L is a join of join-irreducible elements and dually, thus…
A graph is perfectly divisible if for each of its induced subgraph $H$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(H[B]) < \omega(H)$, and a graph $G$ is perfectly weight divisible if for every…
A discrete set in the Euclidian space is almost periodic, if the measure with the unite masses at points of the set is almost periodic in the weak sense. We prove the following result: if A is a discrete almost periodic set and the set A-A…
The problem of determining which infinite lattices are (isomorphic to) sublattices of free lattices is in general unsolved and extremely difficult. In this note, we reduce the problem by proving that all locally finite sublattices of free…
Given a bounded lattice $L$ with bounds $0$ and $1$, it is well known that the set $\mathsf{Pol}_{0,1}(L)$ of all $0,1$-preserving polynomials of $L$ forms a natural subclass of the set $\mathsf{C}(L)$ of aggregation functions on $L$. The…
A new method based on the concept of probability distribution is proposed to analyze the finite volume energy spectrum in lattice QCD. Using synthetic lattice data, we demonstrate that for the channel with quantum numbers of the…
