Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a finite-dimensional subspace of $C(\mathcal{X};\mathbb{R})$, where $\mathcal{X}$ is a locally compact Hausdorff space, and $\mathsf{A}=\{f_1,\dots,f_m\}$ a basis of $\mathcal{A}$. A sequence $s=(s_j)_{j=1}^m$ is called…
Given a probability measure $\mu $ on ${\mathbb R}^n$, Tukey's half-space depth is defined for any $x\in {\mathbb R}^n$ by $\varphi_{\mu }(x)=\inf\{\mu (H):H\in {\cal H}(x)\}$, where ${\cal H}(x)$ is the set of all half-spaces $H$ of…
Let X be a set definable in a sharply o-minimal structure. We consider the problem of counting the number of points where X intersects algebraic varieties V over Q of dimension k < codim X, as a function of T := deg(V) + h(V), where h(V) is…
We define the discrete degree of symmetry $disc-sym(X)$ of a closed $n$-manifold $X$ as the biggest $m\geq 0$ such that $X$ supports an effective action of $({\mathbf Z}/r)^m$ for arbitrarily big values of $r$. We prove that if $X$ is…
Let $k$ be a Brauer field, that is, a field over which every diagonal form in sufficiently many variables has a nonzero solution; for instance, $k$ could be an imaginary quadratic number field. Brauer proved that if $f_1, \ldots, f_r$ are…
Let X and Y be Banach spaces and F a subset of B_{Y^*}. Endow Y with the topology \tau_F of pointwise convergence on F. Let T: X^* \to Y be a bounded linear operator which is (w^*, \tau_F) continuous. Assume that every vector in the range…
We generalize [Vav] to give sufficient conditions, primarily on coarse geometry, to ensure that a subset of a Cayley graph is a finite Hausdorff distance from a subgroup. Using this result, we prove a partial converse to the Flat Torus…
Recently geometric hypergraphs that can be defined by intersections of pseudohalfplanes with a finite point set were defined in a purely combinatorial way. This led to extensions of earlier results about points and halfplanes to…
We introduce a new variant of quantitative Helly-type theorems: the minimal \emph{"homothetic distance"} of the intersection of a family of convex sets to the intersection of a subfamily of a fixed size. As an application, we establish the…
In this article, we extend the foundations of the theory of differential inclusions in the space of compactly supported probability measures, introduced recently by the authors, to the setting of general Wasserstein spaces. In this context,…
Let k be a number field, and denote by k^[d] the compositum of all degree d extensions of k in a fixed algebraic closure. We first consider the question of whether all algebraic extensions of k of degree less than d lie in k^[d]. We show…
Let $F$ be an $n$-point set in $\mathbb{K}^d$ with $\mathbb{K}\in\{\mathbb{R},\mathbb{Z}\}$ and $d\geq 2$. A (discrete) X-ray of $F$ in direction $s$ gives the number of points of $F$ on each line parallel to $s$. We define…
Integral Cauchy theorem is used to derive closed-form expressions of the roots of a univariate polynomial of any degree as integrals of elementary functions.
We consider the Erd\H{o}s-P\'osa property for immersions and topological minors in tournaments. We prove that for every simple digraph $H$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$, and tournament $T$, the following statements hold: (i) If in $T$ one cannot find…
This paper deals with the subject of infinitesimal variations of Euclidean submanifolds with arbitrary dimension and codimension. The main goal is to establish a Fundamental theorem for these geometric objects. Similar to the theory of…
Halfspace (or Tukey) depth is a fundamental and robust measure of centrality of data points in multivariate datasets. Computing the depth of a point with respect to the uniform distribution on an open convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a…
B\'ar\'any's colorful generalization of Carath\'eodory's Theorem combines geometrical and combinatorial constraints. Kalai-Meshulam (2005) and Holmsen (2016) generalized B\'ar\'any's theorem by replacing color classes with matroid…
In this paper, we prove that if a Carath\'eodory hyperbolic analytic space $X$ is $C_X$-complete, then its natural topology is induced by the Carath\'eodory distance on $X$. This is an improvement of Sibony's result, which concludes the…
The classical Steinitz theorem states that if the origin belongs to the interior of the convex hull of a set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, then there are at most $2d$ points of $S$ whose convex hull contains the origin in the interior.…
In this paper we show that there exists a constant $C>0$ such that for any graph $G$ on $Ck\ln k$ vertices either $G$ or its complement $\bar{G}$ has an induced subgraph on $k$ vertices with minimum degree at least $\frac12(k-1)$. This…
