Given a homotopy equivalence f between two topological spaces we assemble well known pieces and unfold them into an explicit formula for a strong deformation retraction of the mapping cylinder of f onto its top.

Embedding models trained separately on similar data often produce representations that encode stable information but are not directly interchangeable. This lack of interoperability raises challenges in several practical applications, such…

In this note, we address formally the issue of symmetry for probabilities of different dynamical pathways in the forward and reverse directions of a conformational transition. Our discussion is based on a decomposition of equilibrium into…

We study cut algebras which are toric rings associated to graphs. The key idea is to consider suitable retracts to understand algebraic properties and invariants of such algebras like being a complete intersection, having a linear…

The usual notion of set-convexity, valid in the classical Euclidean context, metamorphoses into several distinct convexity types in the more general Riemannian setting. By studying this phenomenon in reverse, we characterize complete…

Many examples of obstruction theory can be formulated as the study of when a lift exists in a commutative square. Typically, one of the maps is a cofibration of some sort and the opposite map is a fibration, and there is a functorial…

By introducing the notion of relative derangements of type $B$, also called signed relative derangements, which are defined in terms of signed permutations, we obtain a type $B$ analogue of the well-known relation between relative…

We study an assignment system of intersection types for a lambda-calculus with records and a record-merge operator, where types are preserved both under subject reduction and expansion. The calculus is expressive enough to naturally…

Pattern avoidance classes of permutations that cannot be expressed as unions of proper subclasses can be described as the set of subpermutations of a single bijection. In the case that this bijection is a permutation of the natural numbers…

In this paper, we show that there is a close relation between consistency in a constraint network and set intersection. A proof schema is provided as a generic way to obtain consistency properties from properties on set intersection. This…

We discuss combinatorial conditions for the existence of various types of reductions between equivalence relations, and in particular identify necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of injective reductions.

Working in a variant of the intersection type assignment system of Coppo, Dezani-Ciancaglini and Venneri [1981], we prove several facts about sets of terms having a given intersection type. Our main result is that every strongly normalizing…
