We study the interaction of a ground state with a class of trapping potentials. We track the precise asymptotic behavior of the solution if the interaction is weak, either because the ground state moves away from the potential or is very…
This paper presents the main results in my Ph.D. thesis. In what follows several proofs of SCH are presented introducing a family of covering properties which implies both SCH and the failure of various forms of square. These covering…
If you walk on sand, it supports your weight. How do the disordered forces between particles in sand organize, to keep you from sinking? This simple question is surprisingly difficult to answer experimentally: measuring forces in three…
We show that a map between fibrant objects in a closed model category is a weak equivalence if and only if it has the right homotopy extension lifting property with respect to all cofibrations. The dual statement holds for maps between…
We show that magnetic susceptibility can reveal spin entanglement between individual constituents of a solid, while magnetisation describes their local properties. We then show that these two thermodynamical quantities satisfy complementary…
The two model-theoretic concepts of weak saturation and weak amalgamation property are studied in the context of accessible categories. We relate these two concepts providing sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of weakly…
Granular packings display a wealth of mechanical features which are of widespread significance. One of these features is creep: the slow deformation under applied stress. Creep is common for many other amorphous materials such as many…
This article is devoted to the interplay between forcing with fusion and combinatorial covering properties. We illustrate this interplay by proving that in the Laver model for the consistency of the Borel's conjecture, the product of any…
The multiple exchange property for matroid bases has recently been generalized for valuated matroids and M$^{\natural}$-concave set functions. This paper establishes a stronger form of this multiple exchange property that imposes a…
In this paper we show a density property for fractional weighted Sobolev spaces. That is, we prove that any function in a fractional weighted Sobolev space can be approximated by a smooth function with compact support. The additional…
Kinetic exchange models have been successful in explaining the shape of the income/wealth distribution in the economies. However, such models usually make some ad-hoc assumptions when it comes to determining the savings factor. Here, we…
We introduce the weaker forms of the Scheepers property, namely almost Scheepers (${\sf aS}$), weakly Scheepers in the sense of Sakai (${\sf wS}$) and weakly Scheepers in the sense of Ko\v{c}inac (${\sf wS_k}$). We explore many topological…
We give a reformulation of the inverse shadowing property with respect to the class of all pseudo-orbits. This reformulation bears witness to the fact that the property is far stronger than might initially seem. We give some implications of…
In this short paper we define the wealth process in a spin model for market microstructure, for individual agents and in aggregate. The agents in our model try to balance their desire to belong to the local majority (herding behavior),…
We prove the equivalence of the frame property and the closedness for a weighted shift-invariant space. We also construct a sequence $\Phi^{2k+1}$ and the sequence of spaces $V^p_\mu(\Phi^{2k+1})$, $k\in{\mathbb{N}}$, on $\mathbb{R},$ with…
In this short note, we shall prove some observations regarding the connection between indestructible $\omega_1$-guessing models and the $\omega_1$-approximation property of forcing notions.
The interlock drive system generates traction by inserting narrow articulated spikes into the ground and by leveraging the soil's strength to resist horizontal draft forces. The system promises high tractive performance in low gravity…
The study of the Banach-Saks property in Banach spaces has a long and illustrious history. Of late, motivated by applications in financial mathematics, interest has arisen in the Banach-Saks type properties with respect to order…
We prove a rigidity result for maps between \v{C}ech-Stone remainders under fairly mild forcing axioms.
We construct an equation of state of strange quark matter in strong magnetic field within a confining model. The confinement is modeled by means of the Richardson potential for quark-quark interaction modified suitably to account for strong…
