We provide explicit counterexamples to the so-called Complement Problem in every dimension $n\geq3$, i.e. pairs of non-isomorphic irreducible hypersurfaces $H_1, H_2\subset\mathbb{C}^{n}$ whose complements $\mathbb{C}^{n}\setminus H_1$ and…

The partitioning of space by hyperplanes in the context of discrete classification problem is considered. We obtain some relations for the number of partitions and establish a recurrence relation for the maximal number of partitions of R^n…

In this article we consider $S$ to be a set of points in $d$-space with the property that any $d$ points of $S$ span a hyperplane and not all the points of $S$ are contained in a hyperplane. The aim of this article is to introduce the…

Certain types of bilinearly defined sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ exhibit a higher degree of linearity than what is apparent by inspection.

Suppose that each proper subset of a set $S$ of points in a vector space is contained in the union of planes of specified dimensions, but $S$ itself is not contained in any such union. How large can $|S|$ be? We prove a general upper bound…

Entanglement detection typically relies on linear inequalities for mean values of certain observables (entanglement witnesses), where violation indicates entanglement. We provide a general method to improve any of these inequalities for…

In this note, we completely describe the shape of the bisector of two given points in a two-dimensional normed vector space. More precisely, we show that, depending on the position of two given points with respect to the shape of the unit…

We propose a "decomposition method" to prove non-asymptotic bound for the convergence of empirical measures in various dual norms. The main point is to show that if one measures convergence in duality with sufficiently regular observables,…

In this paper we investigate measures over bounded lattices, extending and giving a unifying treatment to previous works. In particular, we prove that the measures of an arbitrary bounded lattice can be represented as measures over a…

In this note we prove that in a metric measure space $(X, d, m)$ verifying the measure contraction property with parameters $K \in \mathbb{R}$ and $1< N< \infty$, any optimal transference plan between two marginal measures is induced by an…

It is shown that the structure of the generalized quadrangle of order two is fully encoded in the properties of the Desargues configuration. A point of the quadrangle is represented by a geometric hyperplane of the Desargues configuration…

We show that the number of lines in an $m$--homogeneous supersolvable line arrangement is upper bounded by $3m-3$ and we classify the $m$--homogeneous supersolvable line arrangements with two modular points up-to lattice-isotopy. A lower…

For natural numbers $n$ and $l > d \geq 2$, let $ES_d(l,n)$ be the minimum $N$ such that any set of at least $N$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ contains either $l$ points contained in a common $(d-1)$-dimensional hyperplane or $n$ points in…

We study finitely additive extensions of the asymptotic density to all the subsets of natural numbers. Such measures are called density measures. We consider a class of density measures constructed from free ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ and…

We introduce a concept of porosity for measures and study relations between dimensions and porosities for two classes of measures: measures on $R^n$ which satisfy the doubling condition and strongly porous measures on $R$.

A generalization of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem to Stiefel manifolds is considered. This theorem is applied to derive bounds on $d$ that guarantee-for a given set of $m$ measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$-the existence of $k$ mutually orthogonal…

The Shi arrangement ${\mathcal S}_n$ is the arrangement of affine hyperplanes in ${\mathbb R}^n$ of the form $x_i - x_j = 0$ or $1$, for $1 \leq i < j \leq n$. It dissects ${\mathbb R}^n$ into $(n+1)^{n-1}$ regions, as was first proved by…

The set of chambers of a real hyperplane arrangement may be ordered by separation from some fixed chamber. When this poset is a lattice, Bjorner, Edelman, and Ziegler proved that the chambers are in natural bijection with the biconvex sets…

We present a measure of entanglement that can be computed effectively for any mixed state of an arbitrary bipartite system. We show that it does not increase under local manipulations of the system, and use it to obtain a bound on the…

Given a point and an expanding map on the unit interval, we consider the set of points for which the forward orbit under this map is bounded away from the given point. For maps like multiplication by an integer modulo 1, such sets have full…
