We study lower bounds for the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions of the algebraic sum E+K of two subsets E and K of d-dimensional Euclidean space.

Building on and extending tools from variational analysis, we prove Kuratowski convergence of sets of simplicial area minimizers to minimizers of the smooth Douglas-Plateau problem under simplicial refinement. This convergence is with…

Higher chromatic numbers $\chi_s$ of simplicial complexes naturally generalize the chromatic number $\chi_1$ of a graph. In any fixed dimension $d$, the $s$-chromatic number $\chi_s$ of $d$-complexes can become arbitrarily large for…

In this paper, based on the Fokas, Gel'fand et al approach [15,16], we provide a symmetry characterization of continuous deformations of soliton surfaces immersed in a Lie algebra using the formalism of generalized vector fields, their…

This paper presents three main results on coloring discrete $d$-pseudomanifolds: $(1)$ the general chromatic bounds $d+1 \leq X(K) \leq 2d+2$ for any $d$-pseudomanifold $K$; $(2)$ an improved bound $X(K) \leq 2d+1$ for pseudomanifolds…

In this paper we settle long-standing questions regarding the combinatorial complexity of Minkowski sums of polytopes: We give a tight upper bound for the number of faces of a Minkowski sum, including a characterization of the case of…

Let $C_1,\dots,C_{d+1}\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be $d+1$ point sets, each containing the origin in its convex hull. We call these sets color classes, and we call a sequence $p_1, \dots, p_{d+1}$ with $p_i \in C_i$, for $i = 1, \dots, d+1$, a…

In this work, we present a generalization of Gale's lemma. Using this generalization, we introduce two combinatorial sharp lower bounds for ${\rm conid}({\rm B}_0(G))+1$ and ${\rm conid}({\rm B}(G))+2$, two famous topological lower bounds…

A simplicial complex of dimension $d-1$ is said to be balanced if its graph is $d$-colorable. Juhnke-Kubitzke and Murai proved an analogue of the generalized lower bound theorem for balanced simplicial polytopes. We establish a…

We give a sharp lower bound to the largest possible Euclidean norm of signed sums of $n$ vectors in the plane. This is achieved by connecting the signed vector sum problem to the isoperimetric problem for the circumradius of polygons. In…

We define an (r,s)-coloring of an abstract simplicial complex to be a coloring using r colors of the vertices so that in any simplex at most s vertices have the same color. We translate the problem of finding an (r,s)-coloring of a given…

In pioneering works of Meyer and of McMullen in the early 1970s, the set of Minkowski summands of a polytope was shown to be a polyhedral cone called the type cone. Explicit computations of type cones are in general intractable.…

We give a complete combinatorial characterization of weakly $d$-Tverberg complexes. These complexes record which intersection combinatorics of convex hulls necessarily arise in any sufficiently large general position point set in $\mathbb…

In this paper, we explore algebraic approaches to $d$-improper and $t$-clustered colourings, where the colouring constraints are relaxed to allow some monochromatic edges. Bilu [J. Comb. Theory Ser. B, 96(4):608-613, 2006] proved a…

By a finite type-graph we mean a graph whose set of vertices is the set of all $k$-subsets of $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ for some integers $n\ge k\ge 1$, and in which two such sets are adjacent if and only if they realise a certain order type…

Submersions with definite folds are submersions on manifolds with boundary whose restrictions to the boundary are definite fold maps. In this paper, we study the properties from the viewpoint of differential topology of manifolds with…

We prove the following optimal colorful Tverberg-Vrecica type transversal theorem: For prime r and for any k+1 colored collections of points C^l of size |C^l|=(r-1)(d-k+1)+1 in R^d, where each C^l is a union of subsets (color classes) C_i^l…

One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume of an o-symmetric convex body whose only interior lattice…

We give superexponential lower and upper bounds on the number of coloured $d$-dimensional triangulations whose underlying space is an oriented manifold, when the number of simplices goes to infinity and $d\geq 3$ is fixed. In the special…

We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…
