We present constructions of symmetric complete sum-free sets in general finite cyclic groups. It is shown that the relative sizes of the sets are dense in $[0,\frac{1}{3}]$, answering a question of Cameron, and that the number of those…
Murphy and the second author showed that a generic closed Riemannian manifold has no totally geodesic submanifolds, provided it is at least four dimensional. Lytchak and Petrunin established the same thing in dimension 3. For the higher…
Let $K$ and $L$ be two convex bodies in ${\mathbb R^4}$, such that their projections onto all $3$-dimensional subspaces are directly congruent. We prove that if the set of diameters of the bodies satisfy an additional condition and some…
In this paper we show that if a compact set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 3$, has Hausdorff dimension greater than $\frac{(4k-1)}{4k}d+\frac{1}{4}$ when $3 \leq d<\frac{k(k+3)}{(k-1)}$ or $d- \frac{1}{k-1}$ when $\frac{k(k+3)}{(k-1)}…
Menger's conjecture that Menger spaces are /sigma-compact is false; it is true for analytic subspaces of Polish spaces and undecidable for more complex definable subspaces of Polish spaces. For non-metrizable spaces, analytic Menger spaces…
We show that there exist reduced polytopes in three-dimensional Euclidean space. This partially answers the question posed by Lassak on the existence of reduced polytopes in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space for $d\geq 3$. Moreover, we prove…
It is our purpose to study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space. First of all, we show some examples of complete self-shrinkers without polynomial volume growth. By making use of the generalized maximum principle for…
Since the end of the 19th century, and after the works of F. Klein and H. Poincar\'e, it is well known that models of elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry can be given using projective geometry, and that Euclidean geometry can be seen…
We consider some natural sets of real numbers arising in ergodic theory and show that they are, respectively, complete in the classes $\mathcal D_2 (\mathbf\Pi^0_3)$ and $\mathcal D_\omega (\mathbf \Pi^0_3)$, that is, the class of sets…
Erd\H{o}s asked the following question: given $n$ points in the plane in almost general position (no 4 collinear), how large a set can we guarantee to find that is in general position (no 3 collinear)? F\"uredi constructed a set of $n$…
It is a classical fact, that given an arbitrary n-dimensional convex body, there exists an appropriate sequence of Minkowski symmetrizations (or Steiner symmetrizations), that converges in Hausdorff metric to a Euclidean ball. Here we…
A dichotomy for expansions of the real field is established: Either the set of integers is definable or every nonempty bounded nowhere dense definable subset of the real numbers has Minkowski dimension zero.
We show that for any n divisible by 3, almost all order-n Steiner triple systems have a perfect matching (also known as a parallel class or resolution class). In fact, we prove a general upper bound on the number of perfect matchings in a…
Makeev conjectured that every constant-width body is inscribed in the dual difference body of a regular simplex. We prove that homologically, there are an odd number of such circumscribing bodies in dimension 3, and therefore geometrically…
The classical Minkowski formula is extended to spacelike codimension-two submanifolds in spacetimes which admit "hidden symmetry" from conformal Killing-Yano two-forms. As an application, we obtain an Alexandrov type theorem for spacelike…
In this paper, we generalize Minkowski's theorem. This theorem is usually stated for a centrally symmetric convex body and a lattice both included in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In some situations, one may replace the lattice by a more general set for…
By correcting an example by Polyanskii, we show that there exist reduced polytopes in three-dimensional Euclidean space. This partially answers the question posed by Lassak on the existence of reduced polytopes in $d$-dimensional Euclidean…
Below, by space we mean a separable metrizable zero-dimensional space. It is studied when the space can be embedded in a Cantor set while maintaining the algebraic structure. Main results of the work: every space is an open retract of a…
The aim of this paper is to give two complete and simple characterizations of Minkowski norms N on an arbitrary topological real vector space such that the sublevel sets of N are strictly convex. We first show that this property is…
Consider groups such as Mordell-Weil groups of abelian varieties over number fields, odd algebraic $K$-theory groups of number fields, or finitely generated subgroups of the multiplicative groups of number fields. They are all equipped with…
