Let X be a 2-dimensional simplicial complex. The degree of an edge e is the number of 2-faces of X containing e. The complex X is an \epsilon-expander if the coboundary d_1(\phi) of every Z_2-valued 1-cochain \phi \in C^1(X;Z_2) satisfies…

M\"untz's theorem asserts, for example, that the even powers $1, x^2, x^4,\dots$ are dense in $C([0,1])$. We show that the associated expansions are so inefficient as to have no conceivable relevance to any actual computation. For example,…

The article presents a formula expressing Macaulay constants of a numerical polynomial through its minimizing coefficients. From this, we have that Macaulay constants of Kolchin dimension polynomials do not decrease. For the minimal…

The starting point is the class of the following simplicial complexes $\Delta$ with 2-linear resolutions. The facets of $\Delta$ are $F_1,\ldots,F_n$, and we demand that for each $i$ $F_i\cap (F_1\cup \cdots\cup F_{i-1}\cup…

We prove that, modulo any power of a prime $p$, the absolute integral closure of an excellent noetherian domain is Cohen-Macaulay. A graded analog is also established, yielding variants of Kodaira vanishing "up to finite covers" in mixed…

We define the uniform face ideal of a simplicial complex with respect to an ordered proper vertex colouring of the complex. This ideal is a monomial ideal which is generally not squarefree. We show that such a monomial ideal has a linear…

We prove that for $d\geq 3$, the 1-skeleton of any $(d-1)$-dimensional doubly Cohen Macaulay (abbreviated 2-CM) complex is generically $d$-rigid. This implies the following two corollaries (by Kalai and Lee respectively): Barnette's lower…

We prove a combinatorial formula for the Macdonald polynomial H_mu(x;q,t) which had been conjectured by the first author. Corollaries to our main theorem include the expansion of H_mu(x;q,t) in terms of LLT polynomials, a new proof of the…

We study the degeneration problem for maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules and give several examples of such degenerations. It is proved that such degenerations over an even-dimensional simple hypersurface singularity of type $(A_n)$ are given by…

The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomial associated with a compact set $K$ consisting of a finite number of continua in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case…

The Thue-Morse set is the set of those nonnegative integers whose binary expansions have an even number of $1$. We obtain an exact formula for the state complexity of the multiplication by a constant of the Thue-Morse set $\mathcal{T}$ with…

We review and provide simplified proofs related to the Magnus expansion, and improve convergence estimates. Observations and improvements concerning the Baker--Campbell--Hausdorff expansion are also made. In this Part IA, we consider…

Cosystolic expansion is a high-dimensional generalization of the Cheeger constant for simplicial complexes. Originally, this notion was motivated by the fact that it implies the topological overlapping property, but more recently it was…

We consider N-complexes as functors over an appropriate linear category in order to show first that the Krull-Schmidt Theorem holds, then to prove that amplitude cohomology only vanishes on injective functors providing a well defined…

For a tree $T$, we show that for many positive integer values of $n$, and an integer $s \geq 2$, the higher topological complexity $TC_s$ of the unordered configuration spaces of trees $U\mathcal{C}^nT$, is maximal. In other words, we prove…

By providing equivalent definitions of fractional Brauer configuration algebras in certain special cases, we associate to each monomial algebra some combinatorial data called a fractional Brauer configuration, from which we construct a…

For $q>1$ we consider expansions in base $q$ over the alphabet $\{0,1,q\}$. Let $\mathcal{U}_q$ be the set of $x$ which have a unique $q$-expansions. For $k=2, 3,\cdots,\aleph_0$ let $\mathcal{B}_k$ be the set of bases $q$ for which there…

We study cohomological properties of complex manifolds. In particular, under suitable metric conditions, we extend to higher dimensions a result by A. Teleman, which provides an upper bound for the Bott-Chern cohomology in terms of Betti…

We obtain convergent inverse factorial expansions for the sum $S_n(a,b;c)$ of the first $n$ terms of the Gauss hypergeometric function of unit argument valid for $n\geq 1$. The form of these expansions depends on the location of the…

We provide optimal upper bounds on the growth of iterated sumsets $hA=A+\dots+A$ for finite subsets $A$ of abelian semigroups. More precisely, we show that the new upper bounds recently derived from Macaulay's theorem in commutative algebra…
