Alternative novel measures of the distance between any two partitions of a n-set are proposed and compared, together with a main existing one, namely 'partition-distance' D(.,.). The comparison achieves by checking their restriction to…
We show that the slicing problem holds true for subspaces of $L_p,p>2$ in the setting of arbitrary measures in place of volume. This generalizes a result of Milman for the original slicing problem.
A (continuous) necklace is simply an interval of the real line colored measurably with some number of colors. A well-known application of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem asserts that every $k$-colored necklace can be fairly split by at most $k$…
Let X_t be a totally disconnected subset of the real line R for each t in R. We construct a partition {Y_t | t in R} of R into nowhere dense Lebesgue null sets Y_t such that for every t in R there exists an increasing homeomorphism from X_t…
Let T be a tile in the Cartesian plane made up of finitely many rectangles whose corners have rational coordinates and whose sides are parallel to the coordinate axes. This paper gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a square to be…
An emergent theory of quantum measurement arises directly by considering the particular subset of many body wavefunctions that can be associated with classical condensed matter and its interaction with delocalized wavefunctions. This…
Let $A$ and $B$ be finite sets and consider a partition of the \emph{discrete box} $A \times B$ into \emph{sub-boxes} of the form $A' \times B'$ where $A' \subset A$ and $B' \subset B$. We say that such a partition has the…
In the papers Ziegler(2001) and Goldstein(2012) it was previously shown that any subset of the Boolean cube $ S \subset \{0,1\}^n $ for $ n \leq 9 $ can be partitioned into $n+1$ parts of smaller diameter, i.e., the Borsuk conjecture holds…
In the absence of the axiom of choice, new results concerning sequential, Fr\'echet-Urysohn, $k$-spaces, very $k$-spaces, Loeb and Cantor completely metrizable spaces are shown. New choice principles are introduced. Among many other…
We prove that a compact metric space (or more generally an analytic subset of a complete separable metric space) of Hausdorff dimension bigger than $k$ can be always mapped onto a $k$-dimensional cube by a Lipschitz map. We also show that…
We show that the set of all measures on any measurable space is a complete lattice, i.e. every collection of measures has both a greatest lower bound and a least upper bound.
It is known that in $\mathbb{R}^n,n\geq 2$, a compact set which contains $n-1$ spheres with all radii in $[1/2,1]$ or with all possible centres in $[0,1]^n$ has full Hausdorff dimension. In fact the later set has positive Lebesgue measure.…
The current work focuses on the Gaussian-Minkowski problem in dimension 2. In particular, we show that if the Gaussian surface area measure is proportional to the spherical Lebesgue measure, then the corresponding convex body has to be a…
Two planar sets are circularly separable if there exists a circle enclosing one of the sets and whose open interior disk does not intersect the other set. This paper studies two problems related to circular separability. A linear-time…
In this paper a generalization of Urysohn's metrization theorem is given for higher cardinals. Namely, it is shown that a topological space with a basis of cardinality at most $|\omega_\mu|$ or smaller is $\omega_\mu$-metrizable if and only…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for a measure to be an extreme point of the set of measures (on an abstract measurable space) with prescribed generalized moments are given, as well as an application to extremal problems over such moment…
It is well known due to Hahn and Mazurkiewicz that every Peano continuum is a continuous image of the unit interval. We prove that an assignment, which takes as an input a Peano continuum and produces as an output a continuous mapping whose…
We prove the $L^p (p > 3/2)$ boundedness of the directional Hilbert transform in the plane relative to measurable vector fields which are constant on suitable Lipschitz curves.
Various authors have calculated how many pairwise incomparable points can be selected from a partially ordered set. We tackle this question for the family of subsets of a finite set obtained by removing or adding a bounded number of…
The aim of this paper is to provide the results that answer the Kuratowski problem posed in 1935 concerning the existence of nonmeasurable sets. The Kuratowski problem was considered for partitions, here we provide a generalization to…
