In this paper we consider Kakutani's extension of the Brouwer fixed point theorem within the framework of Bishop's constructive mathematics. Kakutani's fixed point theorem is classically equivalent to Brouwer's fixed point theorem. The…
We give an elementary, self-contained and quick proof of Belyi's theorem. As a by-product of our proof we obtain an explicit bound for the degree of the defining number field of a Belyi surface.
The celebrated Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture states that for every fixed $e$, every $3$-uniform hypergraph with $\Omega(n^2)$ edges contains $e$ edges spanned by $e+3$ vertices. Up to this date all the approaches towards resolving this…
This is a draft of a book submitted for publication by the AMS. Its theme is the remarkable interplay, accelerating in the last few decades, between topology and the theory of orderable groups, with applications in both directions. It…
We prove a combination theorem for PD(n)-pairs.
In this paper, we proved a special case of the DDVV Conjecture.
We discuss various forms of the classical van der Corput's difference theorem and explore applications to and connections with the theory of uniform distribution, ergodic theory, topological dynamics and combinatorics.
A new proof of the decomposition theorem is established using a relation with a version of the local purity theorem of Deligne and Gabber adapted to complex algebraic varieties.
A one-line proof of a minimax theorem due to Steinerberger is given.
The singly periodic genus-one helicoid was in the origin of the discovery of the first example of a complete minimal surface with finite topology but infinite total curvature, the celebrated Hoffman-Karcher-Wei's genus one helicoid. The…
This is the English translation of Leonhard Euler's Latin paper "De solidis quorum superficiem in planum explicare licet". Euler explains several methods to obtain equations for developable surfaces. Therefore, this paper might be…
An technically interesting proof of a known theorem.
This is a detailed survey -- with rigorous and self-contained proofs -- of some of the basics of elementary combinatorics and algebra, including the properties of finite sums, binomial coefficients, permutations and determinants. It is…
The Hanani--Tutte theorem is a classical result proved for the first time in the 1930s that characterizes planar graphs as graphs that admit a drawing in the plane in which every pair of edges not sharing a vertex cross an even number of…
Suppose for closed surfaces $M,N$ there exists a continuous map $f:M\to N$ of geometric degree $d>0$. Then $\chi(M)\le d\cdot\chi(N)$. This inequality was first proved by Kneser in case of orientable surfaces and by Edmonds for arbitrary…
Coincidence site lattices of oblique planar lattices are algebraically characterized using as basic tool the Cartan-Dieudonn\'e theorem, that is, the decomposition of an orthogonal transformation as a product of reflections. The case of…
In this work, we prove a refinement of the Gallai-Edmonds structure theorem for weighted matching polynomials by Ku and Wong. Our proof uses a connection between matching polynomials and branched continued fractions. We also show how this…
We prove combination theorems in the spirit of Klein and Maskit in the context of discrete convergence groups acting geometrically finitely on their limit sets. As special cases, we obtain combination theorems for geometrically finite…
In this paper, we prove several fixed point theorems on both of normal partially ordered Banach spaces and regular partially ordered Banach spaces by using the normality, regularity, full regularity, and chain -complete property. Then, by…
A problem from Democritus is used to illustrate the building, and use, of infinitesimal covectors from its regularized, finite, counterpart.
