We establish a bijection between the set of finite topological $T_0$-spaces (or partially ordered sets) and equivalence classes of square matrices. The absolute value of the determinant or the rank of these matrices serve as simple homotopy…
Having developed a description of indefinite extrinsic symmetric spaces by corresponding infinitesimal objects in the preceding paper we now study the classification problem for these algebraic objects. In most cases the transvection group…
A hermitian matrix can be parametrized by a set consisting of its determinant and the eigenvalues of its submatrices. We established a group of equations which connect these variables with the mixing parameters of diagonalization. These…
Testing the unimodular equivalence of two full-dimensional integral simplices can be reduced to testing unimodular permutation (UP) equivalence of two nonsingular matrices. We conduct a systematic study of UP-equivalence, which leads to the…
For a finite lattice $\Lambda$, $\Lambda$-ultrametric spaces have, among other reasons, appeared as a means of constructing structures with lattices of equivalence relations embedding $\Lambda$. This makes use of an isomorphism of…
Working in a theory with an integer-valued dimension on interpretable sets, we classify pseudofinite definably primitive permutation groups acting on one-dimensional sets which satisfy a version of chain condition on centralizers and on…
For finite dimensional hermitean inner product spaces $V$, over $*$-fields $F$, and in the presence of orthogonal bases providing form elements in the prime subfield of $F$, we show that quantifier free definable relations in the subspace…
\noindent Let $M\to N$ (resp.\ $C\to N$) be the fibre bundle of pseudo-Riemannian metrics of a given signature (resp.\ the bundle of linear connections) on an orientable connected manifold $N$. A geometrically defined class of first-order…
A method for finding an optimum $n$-dimensional commutative group code of a given order $M$ is presented. The approach explores the structure of lattices related to these codes and provides a significant reduction in the number of…
Let $\mathcal A:U\to V$ be a linear mapping between vector spaces $U$ and $V$ over a field or skew field $\mathbb F$ with symmetric, or skew-symmetric, or Hermitian forms $\mathcal B:U\times U\to\mathbb F$ and $\mathcal C:V\times…
The category $\bcalNT$ is a category of certain commutative graded algebras over a field. It was introduced in \cite{Lobos2} as a generalization of algebras generated by Jucys-Murphy elements in the many \textbf{End} algebras of the…
We apply a novel method for the equivalence group and its infinitesimal generators to the investigation of invariants of linear ordinary differential equations. First, a comparative study of this method is illustrated by an example. Next,…
We study a family of equivalence relations on $S_n$, the group of permutations on $n$ letters, created in a manner similar to that of the Knuth relation and the forgotten relation. For our purposes, two permutations are in the same…
An isomorphism between two hermitian unitals is proved, and used to treat isomorphisms of classical groups that are related to the isomorphism between certain simple real Lie algebras of types A and D (and rank 3).
In this paper we study a homological version of the higher-dimensional divergence invariants defined by Brady and Farb. We show that they are quasi-isometry invariants in the class of proper cocompact Hadamard spaces in the sense of…
We prove an inequality of the form $\gamma_n\geq C_n(\gamma_{n-1})$ giving a lower bound for the Hermite constant $\gamma_n$ in dimension $n$ in terms of $\gamma_{n-1}$. Iterating this inequality yields a new proof of the Minkowski-Hlawka…
We formulate a systematic algorithm for constructing a whole class of Hermitian position-dependent-mass Hamiltonians which, to lowest order of perturbation theory, allow a description in terms of PT-symmetric Hamiltonians. The method is…
We propose a class of semimetrics for preference relations any one of which is an alternative to the classical Kemeny-Snell-Bogart metric. (We take a fairly general viewpoint about what constitutes a preference relation, allowing for any…
We consider the equivalence relation ~ on the symmetric group S_n generated by the interchange of two adjacent elements a_i and a_{i+1} of w=a_1 ... a_n in S_n such that |a_i - a_{i+1}|=1. We count the number of equivalence classes and the…
K-Theory for hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type, as developed recently by the authors, allows to put Cartan's classification into a homological perspective. We apply this method to the case of inductive limits of finite…
