Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be a prime field, and ${\mathcal E}$ a set in $\mathbb{F}_p^2$. Let $\Delta({\mathcal E})=\{||x-y||: x,y \in {\mathcal E} \}$, the distance set of ${\mathcal E}$. In this paper, we provide a quantitative connection…

We introduce the block elimination distance as a measure of how close a graph is to some particular graph class. Formally, given a graph class ${\cal G}$, the class ${\cal B}({\cal G})$ contains all graphs whose blocks belong to ${\cal G}$…

A finite set of distinct vectors $\mathcal{X}$ in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called a $2$-distance set, if the set of mutual distances between distinct elements of $\mathcal{X}$ has cardinality exactly $2$. In…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \geq 0$, let $G$ be a simple simply connected classical linear algebraic group of rank $\ell$ and let $T$ be a maximal torus in $G$ with rational character group $X(T)$. For a…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a commutative semigroup, and let $T$ be a sequence of terms from the semigroup $\mathcal{S}$. We call $T$ an (additively) {\sl irreducible} sequence provided that no sum of its some terms vanishes. Given any element $a$…

We prove that if $R$ is a ring that is object unital and strongly graded by a groupoid $\Gamma$, and if $\Delta$ is a wide subgroupoid of $\Gamma$, then $R/R_\Delta$ is separable if and only if, for each $e \in \Gamma_0$, there exist $f \in…

A graph $G$ is $\ell$-distance-balanced if for each pair of vertices $x$ and $y$ at distance $\ell$ in $G$, the number of vertices closer to $x$ than to $y$ is equal to the number of vertices closer to $y$ than to $x$. A complete…

We introduce a number of tools for finding and studying \emph{hierarchically hyperbolic spaces (HHS)}, a rich class of spaces including mapping class groups of surfaces, Teichm\"{u}ller space with either the Teichm\"{u}ller or…

We report on some findings concerning Connes' noncommutative distance $d$ on a weighted undirected graph $G$. Our main result is the lower bound $\ell/\Delta(G)\le d$ where $\ell$ is the geodesic distance and $\Delta(G)$ the degree of $G$.…

For an arbitrary finite monoid $M$ and subgroup $K$ of the unit group of $M$, we prove that there is a bijection between irreducible representations of $M$ with nontrivial $K$-fixed space and irreducible representations of $\mathcal{H}_K$,…

A factorization of an element $x$ in a monoid $(M, \cdot)$ is an expression of the form $x = u_1^{z_1} \cdots u_k^{z_k}$ for irreducible elements $u_1, \ldots, u_k \in M$, and the length of such a factorization is $z_1 + \cdots + z_k$. We…

Let B be the Lie algebra with basis {L_{i,j},C|i,j\in Z} and relations [L_{i,j},L_{k,l}]=((j+1)k-i(l+1))L_{i+k,j+l}+i\delta_{i,-k}\delta_{j+l,-2}C, [C,L_{i,j}]=0. It is proved that an irreducible highest weight B-module is quasifinite if…

In this paper, a notion of Schauder equivalence relation $\mathbb R^\mathbb N/L$ is introduced, where $L$ is a linear subspace of $\mathbb R^\mathbb N$ and the unit vectors form a Schauder basis of $L$. The main theorem is to show that the…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set ${\cal A} \subseteq \mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ vectors of ${\cal A}$ include an orthogonal pair. We prove…

We introduce a non-linear criterion which allows us to determine when a function can be written as a sum of functions belonging to homogeneous fractional spaces: for $\ell \in \mathbb{N}^*$, $s_i\in (0, 1)$ and $p_i \in [1, +\infty)$, $u :…

We give a complete and self-contained proof of a folklore theorem which says that in an Alexandrov space the distance between a point $\gamma(t)$ on a geodesic $\gamma$ and a compact set $K$ is a right-differentiable function of $t$.…

We introduce the dimension monoid of a lattice L, denoted by Dim L. The monoid Dim L is commutative and conical, the latter meaning that the sum of any two nonzero elements is nonzero. Furthermore, Dim L is given along with the dimension…

We study the problem of representing all distances between $n$ points in $\mathbb R^d$, with arbitrarily small distortion, using as few bits as possible. We give asymptotically tight bounds for this problem, for Euclidean metrics, for…

We use a map to quantum error-correcting codes and a subspace projection to get lower bounds for minimal homological distances in a tensor product of two chain complexes of vector spaces over a finite field. Homology groups of such a…
