Consider two paths $f,g:[0;1]\to [0;1]^2$ on the unit square such that $f(0)=(0,0)$, $f(1)=(1,1)$, $g(0)=(0,1)$, $g(1)=(1,0)$, $f(0;1)\subseteq (0;1)^2$ and $g(0;1)\subseteq (0;1)^2$. By continuity of $f$ and $g$ there is a point of…

Let us say that an element of a given family $\A$ of subsets of $\R^d$ can be reconstructed using $n$ test sets if there exist $T_1,...,T_n \subset \R^d$ such that whenever $A,B\in \A$ and the Lebesgue measures of $A \cap T_i$ and $B \cap…

We construct a family F of compact and pathwise connected subsets of the Euclidean plane such that (i) the cardinality of F is that of the continuum (and hence extremely large) and (ii) if X,Y are distinct spaces in F then there never…

Given positive integers $k\leq d$ and a finite field $\mathbb{F}$, a set $S\subset\mathbb{F}^{d}$ is $(k,c)$-subspace evasive if every $k$-dimensional affine subspace contains at most $c$ elements of $S$. By a simple averaging argument, the…

The classical Cantor's intersection theorem states that in a complete metric space $X$, intersection of every decreasing sequence of nonempty closed bounded subsets, with diameter approaches zero, has exactly one point. In this article, we…

Consider two paths $\phi,\psi:[0;1]\to [0;1]^2$ in the unit square such that $\phi(0)=(0,0)$, $\phi(1)=(1,1)$, $\psi(0)=(0,1)$ and $\psi(1)=(1,0)$. By continuity of $\phi$ and $\psi$ there is a point of intersection. We prove that from…

Let K be a simplicial complex with vertex set V = {v_1,..., v_n}. The complex K is d-representable if there is a collection {C_1,...,C_n} of convex sets in R^d such that a subcollection {C_{i_1},...,C_{i_j}} has a nonempty intersection if…

Large algebraic structures are found inside the space of sequences of continuous functions on a compact interval having the property that, the series defined by each sequence converges absolutely and uniformly on the interval but the series…

Compositional graphoids are fundamental discrete structures which appear in probabilistic reasoning, particularly in the area of graphical models. They are semigraphoids which satisfy the Intersection and Composition properties. These…

Starting from compact symmetric spaces of inner type, we provide infinite families of compact homogeneous spaces carrying invariant non-flat Bismut connections with vanishing Ricci tensor. These examples turn out to be generalized symmetric…

An almost complete intersection ideal can be seen as a $d$-sequence ideal with the minimal number of generators being one more than its height. In this paper, we give exact formulas for the regularity of powers of graded almost complete…

In this article, we investigate some properties of the coincidence point set of digitally continuous maps. Following the Rosenfeld graphical model which seems more combinatorial than topological, we expect to achieve results that might not…

In this paper a generalisation of the notion of polarity is exhibited which allows to completely describe, in an incidence-geometric way, the linear complexes of $h$-subspaces. A generalised polarity is defined to be a partial map which…

For a compact surface $S$ with constant negative curvature $-\kappa$ (for some $\kappa>0$) and genus $g\geq2$, we show that the tails of the distribution of $i(\alpha,\beta)/l(\alpha)l(\beta)$ (where $i(\alpha,\beta)$ is the intersection…

We compute the automorphism scheme of a generic odd dimensional $(2,2)$-complete intersection in characteristic $2$. This is the only case for complete intersections having a non-trivial identity component in automorphism schemes apart from…

The aim of the present article is to introduce a concept which allows to generalise the notion of Poissonian pair correlation, a second-order equidistribution property, to higher dimensions. Roughly speaking, in the one-dimensional setting,…

In this paper we introduce a method which allows us to study properties of the random uniform simplicial complex. That is, we assign equal probability to all simplicial complexes with a given number of vertices and then consider properties…

A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…

This short article serves as the appendix for [Tran and Wang, 2022]. We prove that a complete intersection of $n$ generic polyhedral hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is $(d-n-1)$-connected for $d\geq 2, d>n$.

Consider a finite collection of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb R^d$. The hyperplanes dissect $\mathbb R^d$ into finitely many polyhedral chambers. For a point $x\in \mathbb R^d$ and a chamber $P$ the metric projection of $x$ onto $P$ is the…
