For integers $q\ge p\ge r\ge2$, we say that an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ has property $(q,p)$, if for any $q$-vertex subset $Q$ of $V(H)$, there exists a $p$-vertex subset $P$ of $Q$ spanning a clique in $H$. Let $T_{r}(n,q,p)=\min\{ e(H):…

Given a proper map f : M $\rightarrow$ Q, having cell-like point-inverses, from a manifold-without-boundary M onto an ANR Q, it is a much-studied problem to find when f is approximable by homeomorphisms, i.e., when the decomposition of M…

We prove that for a topological space X with the property that $H_p(U)=0$ for $p\geq d$ and every open subset $U$ of $X$, a finite family of open sets in $X$ has nonempty intersection if for any subfamily of size $j$, $1\leq j \leq d+1$,…

A separated $d$-interval is defined as a disjoint union of $d$ convex sets from the real line $\mathbb R$. In this paper, we establish a series of Helly-type theorems for convexity spaces derived from separated $d$-intervals. Our results…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic zero. For any positive integer $n$ and any scalar $a\in\Bbbk$, we construct a family of Artin-Schelter regular algebras $R(n,a)$, which are quantisations of Poisson structures on…

We compute the deformation space of quadratic letterplace ideals $L(2,P)$ of finite posets $P$ when its Hasse diagram is a rooted tree. These deformations are unobstructed. The deformed family has a polynomial ring as the base ring. The…

Let X and Y be finite dimensional normed spaces, F(X,Y) a collection of all mappings from X into Y. A mapping $P\in F(X,Y)$ is said to be piecewise affine if there exists a finite family of convex polyhedral subsets covering X and such that…

If the conformal holonomy group $Hol(\mathcal{T})$ of a simply connected space with conformal structure of signature $(2p-1,2q-1)$ is reduced to $\U(p,q)$ then the conformal holonomy is already contained in the special unitary group…

The set of isotopy classes of nontrivial torus knots $T(p,q)$ in $S^3$ is in bijection with the set of coprime integer pairs $(p,q)$ satisfying $|p|>q\geq 2$. We verify the AJ conjecture for the connected sums $T(p,q)\# T(a,b)$ when $p$ and…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two nonnegative integers with $p+q>0$ and $n>0$. We call $\mathcal{F} \subset \mathcal{P}([n])$ a \textit{(p,q)-tilted Sperner family with patterns on [n]} if there are no distinct $F,G \in \mathcal{F}$ with: $$(i) \ \…

We construct a family of countexamples to a conjecture of Galvin [5], which stated that for any $n$-vertex, $d$-regular graph $G$ and any graph $H$ (possibly with loops), \[\hom(G,H) \leq \max\left\lbrace\hom(K_{d,d}, H)^{\frac{n}{2d}},…

The topological Tverberg theorem claims that for any continuous map of the (q-1)(d+1)-simplex to R^d there are q disjoint faces such that their images have a non-empty intersection. This has been proved for affine maps, and if $q$ is a…

A convex polygon $A$ is related to a convex $m$-gon $K= \bigcap_{i=1}^m k_i^+$, where $k_1^+,..., k_m^+$ are the $m$ halfplanes whose intersection is equal to $K$, if $A$ is the intersection of halfplanes $a_1^+,...,a_l$, each of which is a…

For $n\leq d$, a family ${\cal F}=\{C_0,C_1,\ldots, C_n\}$ of compact convex sets in $R^d$ is called an $n$-critical family provided any $n$ members of ${\cal F}$ have a non-empty intersection, but $\bigcap_{i=0}^n C_i=\varnothing$. If…

In this paper, we describe a new infinite family of $\frac{q^{2}-1}{2}$-tight sets in the hyperbolic quadrics $\mathcal{Q}^{+}(5,q)$, for $q \equiv 5 \mbox{ or } 9 \bmod{12}$. Under the Klein correspondence, these correspond to…

We interpret a recent formula for counting orbits of $GL(d,F_q)$ in terms of counting fixed points as addition in the affine braided line. The theory of such braided groups (or Hopf algebras in braided categories) allows us to obtain the…

We say that a subset of C^n is hypoconvex if its complement is the union of complex hyperplanes. Let D be the closed unit disk in C, T the unit circle. We prove two conjectures of Helton and Marshall. (See ``Frequency domain design and…

A subset $\mathcal{S}$ of a conic $\mathcal{C}$ in the projective plane $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$ is called almost complete (AC-subset for short) if it can be extended to a larger arc in $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$ only by the points of…
