In this article, we explore the combinatorics of balanced collections. A collection of subsets of the set $[n] = \{1, \dots, n\}$ is called \emph{balanced} if the relative interior of the convex hull of the corresponding characteristic…
In the paper, we describe all total orders $\succ$ compatible with addition on additive subsemigroup $S$ of finite dimensional spaces over rational numbers. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition under which a finitely generated…
Let G be an almost simple reductive group with Weyl group W. Let B be a Borel subgroup of G. Let C be an elliptic conjugacy class in W and let w be an element of minimal length of C. We investigate the existence of a semisimple class of G…
We study the minimal gap statistic for fractional parts of sequences of the form $\mathcal A^\alpha = \{\alpha a(n)\}$ where $\mathcal A = \{a(n)\}$ is a sequence of distinct of integers. Assuming that the additive energy of the sequence is…
Let W be a compact simply connected triangulated manifold with boundary and $K \subset W$ be a subpolyhedron. We construct an algebraic model of the rational homotopy type of the complement $W \setminus K$ out of a model of the map of pairs…
A subset of a Polish space $X$ is called universally small if it belongs to each ccc $\sigma$-ideal with Borel base on $X$. Under CH in each uncountable Abelian Polish group $G$ we construct a universally small subset $A_0\subset G$ such…
Denote by $\mathcal{NA}$ and $\mathcal{MA}$ the ideals of null-additive and meager-additive subsets of~$2^\omega$, respectively. We prove in ZFC that $\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{NA})=\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{NA})$ and introduce a new (Polish)…
For every $\epsilon > 0$ and $k \in \mathbb{N}$, Haight constructed a set $A \subset \mathbb{Z}_N$ ($\mathbb{Z}_N$ stands for the integers modulo $N$) for a suitable $N$, such that $A-A = \mathbb{Z}_N$ and $|kA| < \epsilon N$. Recently,…
Let $A$ be an element of the copositive cone ${\cal C}_n$. A zero $u$ of $A$ is a nonzero nonnegative vector such that $u^TAu = 0$. The support of $u$ is the index set $\mbox{supp}u \subset \{1,\dots,n\}$ corresponding to the positive…
We consider quasiconformal deformations of $\mathbb{C}\setminus\mathbb{Z}$. We give some criteria for infinitely often punctured planes to be quasiconformally equivalent to $\mathbb{C}\setminus\mathbb{Z}$. In particular, we characterize the…
For a finite abelian group $G$ with subsets $A$ and $B$, the sumset $AB$ is $\{ab \mid a\in A, b \in B\}$. A fundamental problem in additive combinatorics is to find a lower bound for the cardinality of $AB$ in terms of the cardinalities of…
The minus partial order is already known for sets of matrices over a field and bounded linear operators on arbitrary Hilbert spaces. Recently, this partial order has been studied on Rickart rings. In this paper, we extend the concept of the…
We consider families F of sequences converging to +infinity that F satisfies the following condition (C): (C): if an open set U in the real line is unbounded above then there exists a sequence belonging to F, which has an infinite number of…
A subset $S$ of an integral domain $R$ is called a semidomain if the pairs $(S,+)$ and $(S, \cdot)$ are semigroups with identities; additionally, we say that $S$ is additively reduced provided that $S$ contains no additive inverses. Given…
Compact sets in constructive mathematics capture our intuition of what computable subsets of the plane (or any other complete metric space) ought to be. A good representation of compact sets provides an efficient means of creating and…
This article is an exposition of recent results on self-similar sets, asserting that if the dimension is smaller than the trivial upper bound then there are almost overlaps between cylinders. We give a heuristic derivation of the theorem…
Summand absorbing submodules are common in modules over (additively) idempotent semirings, for example, in tropical algebra. A submodule $W$ of $V$ is summand absorbing, if $x + y \in W$ implies $x \in W, \; y \in W $ for any $x, y \in V$.…
Let $\mathcal W$ be a nontrivial variety of lattices, and let $L$ be a finite lattice in $\mathcal W$. The congruence density of $L$ with respect to $\mathcal W$ is the number of congruences of $L$ divided by the maximum number of…
The simplest condition characterizing quasi-finite CW complexes $K$ is the implication $X\tau_h K\implies \beta(X)\tau K$ for all paracompact spaces $X$. Here are the main results of the paper: Theorem: If $\{K_s\}_{s\in S}$ is a family of…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. For a finitely generated $R$-module $M$, the notion of associated prime submodules of $M$ is defined. It is shown that this notion inherits most of essential properties of the usual notion of…
