We establish an upper bound on the cardinality of a minimal generating set for the fundamental group of a large family of connected, balanced simplicial complexes and, more generally, simplicial posets.

In this paper we introduce a path complex that can be regarded as a generalization of the notion of a simplicial complex. The main motivation for considering path complexes comes from directed graphs(digraphs). We obtain a new notion of the…

Simplicial complexes are extensively studied in the field of algebraic topology. They have gained attention in recent time due to their applications in fields like theoretical distributed computing and simplicial neural networks. Graphs are…

We describe the groups that have the same holomorph as a finite perfect group. Our results are complete for centerless groups. When the center is non-trivial, some questions remain open. The peculiarities of the general case are illustrated…

It is pointed out that the equations $\sum_{i=1}^d [X_i,[X_i,X_j]]=0$ (and its super-symmetrizations, playing a central role in M-theory matrix models) describe noncommutative minimal surfaces -- and can be solved as such.

We study approximations of theories both in general context and with respect to some natural classes of theories. Some kinds of approximations are considered, connections with finitely axiomatizable theories and minimal generating sets of…

Abstract argumentation frameworks (AFs) provide a formal setting to analyze many forms of reasoning with conflicting information. While the expressiveness of general infinite AFs make them a tempting tool for modeling many kinds of…

The intersection matrix of a finite simplicial complex has as each of its entries the rank of the intersection of its respective simplices. We prove that such matrix defines the triangulation of a closed connected surface up to isomorphism.

Given a shifted order ideal $U$, we associate to it a family of simplicial complexes $(\Delta_t(U))_{t\geq 0}$ that we call squeezed complexes. In a special case, our construction gives squeezed balls that were defined and used by Kalai to…

It is shown that there exists a finitely generated infinite simple group of infinite commutator width, and that the commutator width of a finitely generated infinite boundedly simple group can be arbitrarily large. Besides, such groups can…

We construct words with small image in a given finite alternating or unimodular group. This shows that word width in these groups is unbounded in general.

By the famous ADE classification rational double points are simple. Rational triple points are also simple. We conjecture that the simple normal surface singularities are exactly those rational singularities, whose resolution graph can be…

The finitistic dimension of a triangulated category is introduced. For the category of perfect complexes over a ring it is shown that this dimension is finite if and only if the small finitistic dimension of the ring is finite.

The simplicial LS-category of a finite abstract simplicial complex is a new invariant of the strong homotopy type, defined in purely combinatorial terms, that generalizes to arbitrary simplicial complexes the well known notion of arboricity…

We consider closed simplicial and cubical $n$-complexes in terms of link of their $(n-2)$-faces. Especially, we consider the case, when this link has size 3 or 4, i.e., every $(n-2)$-face is contained in 3 or 4 $n$-faces. Such simplicial…

Groups definable in simple theories retain the chain conditions and decomposition properties known from stable groups, up to commensurability. In the small case, if a generic type of G is not foreign to some type q, there is a q-internal…
