In this paper we define several notions of term expansion, used to define terms with less sharing, but with the same computational properties of terms typable in an intersection type system. Expansion relates terms typed by associative,…

This work addresses the existence of transitive extensions of certain infinite permutation groups which arise as the automorphism groups of model-theoretic structures which are generic in the Fra\"iss\'e sense. The study of transitive…

We introduce the notion of \emph{topo-symmetric extensions} of topological groups, a new generalization of classical group extensions that incorporates both topological and symmetry constraints. We define morphisms between such extensions,…

The concept of cutting is first explicitly introduced. By the concept, a convex expansion for finite distributive lattices is considered. Thus, a more general method for drawing the Hasse diagram is given, and the rank generating function…

The maps $x \mapsto ax^{2^k}+b$ defined over finite fields of characteristic two can be related to the duplication map over binary supersingular elliptic curves. Relying upon the structure of the group of rational points of such curves we…

We define two classes of topological infinite degree covering maps modeled on two families of transcendental holomorphic maps. The first, which we call exponential maps of type $(p,q)$, are branched covers and is modeled on transcendental…

In this paper, we study the non-singular extension problem of horizontal stable fold maps. This problem asks what conditions ensure the existence of a submersion whose restriction to the boundary coincides with a given map, called a…

In 1980's, Thurston established a combinatorial characterization for post-critically finite rational maps. This criterion was then extended by Cui, Jiang, and Sullivan to sub-hyperbolic rational maps. The goal of this paper is to present a…

This is a significantly expanded version of the survey paper "Mixing and decay of correlations in non-uniformly expanding maps: a survey of recent results" math/0301319. We discuss recent results on decay of correlations for non-uniformly…

We investigate non-homeomorphic mappings of Riemannian surfaces of Sobolev class. We have obtained some estimates of distortion of moduli of families of curves. We have proved that, under some conditions, these mappings have a continuous…

In this correspondence, first-tier indirect (direct) discernible constellation expansions are defined for generalized orthogonal designs. The expanded signal constellation, leading to so-called super-orthogonal codes, allows the achievement…

We show that an entire branched cover of finite distortion cannot have a compact branch set if its distortion satisfies a certain asymptotic growth condition. We furthermore show that this bound is strict by constructing an entire,…

Extension dimension is characterized in terms of $\omega$-maps. We apply this result to prove that extension dimension is preserved by refinable maps between metrizable spaces. It is also shown that refinable maps preserve some…

We study singularities of constant positive Gaussian curvature surfaces and determine the way they bifurcate in generic 1-parameter families of such surfaces. We construct the bifurcations explicitly using loop group methods. Constant…

We develop techniques that lay out a basis for generalizations of the famous Thurston's Topological Characterization of Rational Functions for an infinite set of marked points and branched coverings of infinite degree. Analogously to the…

Given a sub-hyperbolic semi-rational branched covering which is not CLH-equivalent a rational map, it must have the non-empty canonical Thurston obstruction. By using this canonical Thurston obstruction, we decompose this dynamical system…

Using the concept of dynamical mappings, two symmetry conserving nonperturbative approaches are presented. The first is based on the 1/N-expansion and sorted out using Holstein-Primakoff mapping. The second consists of dynamically mapping…

This expository paper explores the interaction of group ordering with topological questions, especially in dimensions 2 and 3. Among the topics considered are surfaces, braid groups, 3-manifolds and their structures such as foliations and…

We study the possibility of a continuous extension of a class of mappings to an isolated point on the boundary of a domain. We show that if some characteristic of this mapping is integrable on almost all spheres in the neighborhood of at…

A family of discontinuous symplectic maps on the cylinder is considered. This family arises naturally in the study of nonsmooth Hamiltonian dynamics and in switched Hamiltonian systems. The transformation depends on two parameters and is a…
