We introduce the notion of reflexivity for combinatory algebras. Reflexivity can be thought of as an equational counterpart of the Meyer-Scott axiom of combinatory models, which indeed allows us to characterise an equationally definable…

We give elementary self-contained proofs of the strong Mason conjecture recently proved by Anari at. al. (arXiv:1811.01600) and Br\"and\'en--Huh (arXiv:1902.03719), and of the classical Alexandrov--Fenchel inequality. Both proofs use the…

We analyse the logical complexity and absoluteness of natural statements about Ulam sequences, with particular emphasis on the rigidity phenomena introduced by Hinman, Kuca, Schlesinger and Sheydvasser for the family $U(1,n)$. For each pair…

We first provide a classical analysis proof of a version of the Alexandroff-Bakelman-Pucci inequality (ABP) for compactly supported $C^2$ functions in dimension $2$, inspired by the symplectic geometry proof method of Viterbo, which avoids…

Automata learning is a popular technique for inferring minimal automata through membership and equivalence queries. In this paper, we generalise learning to the theory of coalgebras. The approach relies on the use of logical formulas as…

We study commutative algebras with Gorenstein duality, i.e. algebras $A$ equipped with a non-degenerate bilinear pairing such that $\langle ac,b\rangle=\langle a,bc\rangle$ for any $a,b,c\in A$. If an algebra $A$ is Artinian, such pairing…

The \emph{strong collapse} of a simplicial complex, proposed by Barmak and Minian (\emph{Disc. Comp. Geom. 2012}), is a combinatorial collapse of a complex onto its sub-complex. Recently, it has received attention from computational…

For a pair $(P,Q)$ of finite posets the generators of the ideal $L(P,Q)$ correspond bijectively to the isotone maps from $P$ to $Q$. In this note we determine all pairs $(P,Q)$ for which the Alexander dual of $L(P,Q)$ coincides with…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We prove that the arithmetic $p$-adic pro-\'etale cohomology of smooth partially proper spaces over $K$ satisfies a duality, as conjectured by Colmez, Gilles and Nizio{\l}. We derive it from…

Classical algebraic structures require exact satisfaction of their defining axioms. We propose similarity algebra, a framework extending algebraic and Lie structures to settings where operations satisfy quantitative bounds up to a tolerance…

We consider twisted standard filtrations of Soergel bimodules associated to arbitrary Coxeter groups and show that the graded multiplicities in these filtrations can be interpreted as structure constants in the Hecke algebra. This…
