We show that for a metric space with an even number of points there is a 1-Lipschitz map to a tree-like space with the same matching number. This result gives the first basic version of an unoriented Kantorovich duality. The study of the…

We describe $\sigma$-matching, interchangeable and, as a consequence, totally compatible products on null-filiform associative algebras.

A commutative algebra is exact if its multiplication endomorphisms are trace-free and is Killing metrized if its Killing type trace-form is nondegenerate and invariant. A Killing metrized exact commutative algebra is necessarily neither…

Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…

We investigate a relations of almost isometric embedding and almost isometry between metric spaces and prove that with respect to these relations: (1) There is a countable universal metric space. (2) There may exist fewer than continuum…

We consider second-order partial differential operators $H$ in divergence form on $\Ri^d$ with a positive-semidefinite, symmetric, matrix $C$ of real $L_\infty$-coefficients and establish that $H$ is strongly elliptic if and only if the…

We prove the following: Let $A$ be a C$^{\ast}$-algebra. Then for $a, b \in A^+ \setminus\{ 0 \}$, we have $a b = 0$ if and only is $\Vert \Vert c \Vert^{-1} c + \Vert d \Vert^{-1} d \Vert = 1$ whenever $0 < c \le a$ and $0 < d \le b$ in…

In this article we introduce the study of the number of pairs of non-comparable elements in a distributive lattice $\L$. We give several tight lower and upper bounds for the number and give as an application the lattices precisely for which…

The elliptic genus for arbitrary two dimensional $N=2$ Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds is computed. This is used to search for possible mirror pairs of such models. An important aspect of this work is that there is no restriction to theories for…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open interval, and let $p>1$ and $q\in\left(0,p-1\right) $. Let $m\in L^{p^{\prime}}\left(\Omega\right) $ and $0\leq c\in L^{\infty}\left(\Omega\right) $. We study existence of strictly positive solutions for…

Let A be a subspace arrangement with a geometric lattice such that codim(x) > 1 for every x in A. Using rational homotopy theory, we prove that the complement M(A) is rationally elliptic if and only if the sum of the orthogonal subspaces is…

Let A,B be matrices in SL(2,R) having trace greater than or equal to 2. Assume the pair A,B is coherently oriented, that is, can be conjugated to a pair having nonnegative entries. Assume also that either A,B^(-1) is coherently oriented as…

We give examples of pairs of isotopic algebras with non-isomorphic congruence lattices. This answers the question of whether all isotopic algebras have isomorphic congruence lattices.

We prove two results intended to streamline proofs about cellularity that pass through mutual algebraicity. First, we show that a countable structure $M$ is cellular if and only if $M$ is $\omega$-categorical and mutually algebraic. Second,…

Let G be a classical group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2 and let C be an elliptic conjugacy class in the Weyl group. In a previous paper the first named author associated to C a unipotent conjugacy class \Phi(C) in…

A compatible associative algebra is a vector space endowed with two associative multiplication operations that satisfy a natural compatibility condition. In this paper, we investigate and classify compatible pairs of associative algebras of…

Let $\F$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $\V$ be a vector space equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric or symplectic bilinear form $B$ over $\F$. Suppose the characteristic of $\F$ is \emph{large}, i.e. either zero or greater than…

The theory of two binary relations has the strong amalgamation property when the first relation is assumed to be coarser than the second relation, and each relation satisfies a chosen set of properties from the following list: transitivity,…

We characterize when the elementary diagram of a mutually algebraic structure has a model complete theory, and give an explicit description of a set of existential formulas to which every formula is equivalent. This characterization yields…

We prove the following vanishing theorem. Let M be an irreducible symmetric space of noncompact type whose dimension exceeds 2 and $M\ne SO_0(2,2)/SO(2)\tm SO(2).$ Let E be any vector bundle over M, Then any E-valued $L^2$ harmonic 1-form…
