We combine several folklore observations to provide a working framework for iterating constructions which contradict the axiom of choice. We use this to define a model in which any kind of structural failure must fail with a proper class of…
A discrete set in the $p$-dimensional Euclidian space is {\it almost periodic}, if the measure with the unite masses at points of the set is almost periodic in the weak sense. We propose to construct positive almost periodic discrete sets…
We prove that in every compact space of Delone sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which is minimal with respect to the action by translations, either all Delone sets are uniformly spread, or continuously many distinct bounded displacement equivalence…
A Delone set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a set such that (a) the distance between any two of its points is uniformly bounded below by a strictly positive constant and such that (b) the distance from any point to the remaining points in the set is…
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…
Questions that seek to determine whether a hyperplane arrangement property, be it geometric, arithmetic or topological, is of a combinatorial nature (that is determined by the intersection lattice) are abundant in the literature. To tackle…
Let $X = G/\Gamma$ be a quotient of a real Lie group by a non-uniform lattice. Consider a one-parameter subgroup $F$ of $G$ that is $\operatorname{Ad}$-diagonalizable over $\mathbb{C}$ and whose action on $(X,m_X)$ is mixing. In this…
The problem of covering a region of the plane with a fixed number of minimum-radius identical balls is studied in the present work. An explicit construction of bi-Lipschitz mappings is provided to model small perturbations of the union of…
We introduce a new theory of generalised solutions which applies to fully nonlinear PDE systems of any order and allows for merely measurable maps as solutions. This approach bypasses the standard problems arising by the application of…
We prove that most one-dimensional projections of a discrete subset of a plane are either dense in R (the real line), or form a discrete subset of R. More precisely, the set E of exceptional directions (for which the indicated dichotomy…
Given two arbitrary closed sets in Euclidean space, a simple transversality condition guarantees that the method of alternating projections converges locally, at linear rate, to a point in the intersection. Exact projection onto nonconvex…
We study random compact subsets of R^3 which can be described as "random Menger sponges". We use those random sets to construct a pair of compact sets A and B in R^3 which are of the same positive measure, such that A can be covered by…
We consider a large class of deformations of continuous and discrete biorthogonal ensembles and investigate their behavior in the limit of a large number of particles. We provide sufficient conditions to ensure that if a biorthogonal…
There is a growing body of results in the theory of discrete point sets and tiling systems giving conditions under which such systems are pure point diffractive. Here we look at the opposite direction: what can we infer about a discrete…
We present a definition of chaotic Delone set, and establish the genericity of chaos in the space of $(\epsilon,\delta)$-Delone sets for $\epsilon\geq \delta$. We also present a hyperbolic analogue of the cut-and-project method that…
In this article we construct the first examples of strongly aperiodic linearly repetitive Delone sets in non-abelian Lie groups by means of symbolic substitutions. In particular, we find such sets in all $2$-step nilpotent Lie groups with…
This is the second of two papers treating faithful actions of simple algebraic groups on irreducible modules and on the associated Grassmannian varieties; in the first paper we considered the module itself and its projective space, while…
By a rectangular distributive lattice we mean the direct product of two non-singleton finite chains. We prove that the retracts (ordered by set inclusion and together with the empty set) of a rectangular distributive lattice $G$ form a…
Model sets (also called cut and project sets) are generalizations of lattices. Here we show how the self-similarities of model sets are a natural replacement for the group of translations of a lattice. This leads us to the concept of…
In 1998 Burago and Kleiner and (independently) McMullen gave examples of separated nets in Euclidean space which are non-bilipschitz equivalent to the integer lattice. We study weaker notions of equivalence of separated nets and demonstrate…
