The author presents a new proof of injectivity of the composition of the inverse of the rational Chern Character in homology applied to the classifying space BG of a (countable) discrete group G, restricted to dimensions less or equal than…
We prove that given a planar embedding of a graph in the sphere the expansion of the graph structure by predicates encoding separation of vertices by simple cycles of the graph is dp-minimal.
Modern categorical logic as well as the Kripke and topological models of intuitionistic logic suggest that the interpretation of ordinary "propositional" logic should in general be the logic of subsets of a given universe set. Partitions on…
Let $G$ denotes a finite abelian group of order $n$ and Davenport constant $D$, and put $m= n+D-1$. Let $x=(x_1, ..., x_m)\in G^m$ be a sequence with a maximal repetition $\ell$ attained by $x_m$ and put $r=\min(D,\ell)$. Let $w=(w_1, ...,…
The Union Closed Sets Conjecture is one of the most renowned problems in combinatorics. Its appeal lies in the simplicity of its statement contrasted with the potential complexity of its resolution. The conjecture posits that, in any union…
The set of acyclic orientations of a connected graph with a given sink has a natural poset structure. We give a geometric proof of a result of Jim Propp: this poset is the disjoint union of distributive lattices.
A new method is given for computing generators of the homology groups with integer coefficients for any finite $T_0$-space. An important role in this method is played by irreducible cycles which are defined here and give rise to continuous…
An abstract, Hales-Jewett type extension of the polynomial van der Waerden Theorem [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 9 (1996),725-753] is established: Theorem. Let r,d,q \in \N. There exists N \in \N such that for any r-coloring of the set of subsets of…
Motivated by representation theory we exhibit an interior structure to Catalan sequences and many generalisations thereof. Certain of these coincide with well known (but heretofore isolated) structures. The remainder are new.
In this paper we have shown that a double sequence in a topological space satisfies certain conditions which in turn are capable to generate a topology on a non empty set. Also we have used the idea of I-convergence of double sequences to…
Let $p$ and $q$, where $pq-qp=1$, be the standard generators of the first Weyl algebra $A_1$ over a field of characteristic zero. Then the spectrum of the inner derivation $ad(pq)$ on $A_1$ are exactly the set of integers. The algebra $A_1$…
This expository paper starts with a brief survey on the relation between partitions and surjections of sets, and then gives a quick introduction to the theories of incidence algebras, Segal groupoids and combinatorial species. The aim is to…
When the plane is pie-sliced in $n\leq 4$ parts (with nonempty interior and common vertex at the origin) our main result provides a sufficient condition for any map $L$, that is continuous and piecewise linear relatively to this slicing, to…
We give an approximate Menger-type theorem for when a graph $G$ contains two $X-Y$ paths $P_1$ and $P_2$ such that $P_1 \cup P_2$ is an induced subgraph of $G$. More generally, we prove that there exists a function $f(d) \in O(d)$, such…
We present an exact formula for the ordinary generating series of the simple paths between any two vertices of a graph. Our formula involves the adjacency matrix of the connected induced subgraphs and remains valid on weighted and directed…
Consider a string of $n$ positions, i.e. a discrete string of length $n$. Units of length $k$ are placed at random on this string in such a way that they do not overlap, and as often as possible, i.e. until all spacings between neighboring…
For an arbitrary partially ordered set $P$ its {\em dual} $P^*$ is built as the collection of all monotone mappings $P\to\2$ where $\2=\{0,1\}$ with $0<1$. The set of mappings $P^*$ is proved to be a complete lattice with respect to the…
Let $G$ be an undirected graph of order $n$ and let $C_i$ be an $i$-cycle graph. $G$ is called pancyclic if $G$ contains a $C_i$ for any $i\in \{3,4,\ldots,n\}$. We show that the pancyclicity of specific Cayley graphs and the Cartesian…
This is a translation. I have added translations for (possibly) outdated definitions in an appendix at the end. In this paper, we define distributive groups and show some properties of them. We then concern ourselves with the homogeinity of…
In this paper, we prove that each injective simplicial map of the arc complex of a compact, connected, orientable surface with nonempty boundary is induced by a homeomorphism of the surface. We deduce, from this result, that the group of…
