Given a finite simple undirected graph $G$, let $T_1(G)$ denote the subset of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex of $T_1(G)$ belongs to at least one subgraph isomorphic to a graph obtained by connecting a single vertex to two vertices…

We show that every transformation is disjoint from almost every interval exchange transformation (IET), answering a question of Bufetov. In particular, we prove that almost every pair of IETs is disjoint. It follows that the product of…

A topologized semilattice $X$ is complete if each non-empty chain $C\subset X$ has $\inf C\in\bar C$ and $\sup C\in\bar C$. It is proved that for any complete subsemilattice $X$ of a functionally Hausdorff semitopological semilattice $Y$…

A set $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$ is a set of pointwise recurrence if for all minimal dynamical systems $(X, T)$, all $x \in X$, and all open neighborhoods $U \subseteq X$ of $x$, there exists a time $n \in A$ such that $T^n x \in U$. The set…

A minimal subshift $(X,T)$ is linearly recurrent if there exists a constant $K$ so that for each clopen set $U$ generated by a finite word $u$ the return time to $U$, with respect to $T$, is bounded by $K|u|$. We prove that given a linearly…

Let $B$ be a bidirected multigraph with signing $\sigma$, let $X$ be a set of vertices in $B$, and let $k$ be a non-negative integer. For any pair of vertex sets $S,T\subset V(B)$ satisfying $X\cap S = X\cap T$, we denote by $B_{S,T}$ the…

We prove that a set of finite perimeter is indecomposable if and only if it is, up to a choice of suitable representative, connected in the 1-fine topology. This gives a topological characterization of indecomposability which is new even in…

Hadwiger's conjecture asserts that if a simple graph $G$ has no $K_{t+1}$ minor, then its vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned into $t$ stable sets. This is still open, but we prove under the same hypotheses that $V(G)$ can be partitioned…

We consider the situation where one is given a set S of points in the plane and a collection D of unit disks embedded in the plane. We show that finding a minimum cardinality subset of D such that any path between any two points in S is…

We study minimal idempotents $J^{\mathrm{min}}(X)$ in the Ellis semigroup $E(X)$ associated with a Floyd-Auslander system $(X,T)$. We show that $(X,T)$ is non-tame if and only if $|J^{\mathrm{min}}(X)| > 2^{\aleph_0}$, which happens exactly…

We call a finite undirected graph minimally k-matchable if it has at least k distinct perfect matchings but deleting any edge results in a graph which has not. An odd subdivision of some graph G is any graph obtained by replacing every edge…

The Tree Decomposition Conjecture by Bar\'at and Thomassen states that for every tree $T$ there exists a natural number $k(T)$ such that the following holds: If $G$ is a $k(T)$-edge-connected simple graph with size divisible by the size of…

A metric continuum $X$ is indecomposable if it cannot be put as the union of two of its proper subcontinua. A subset $R$ of $X$ is said to be continuumwise connected provided that for each pair of points $p,q\in R$, there exists a…

We investigate the structure of a digraph having a transitive automorphism group where every cutset of minimal cardinality consists of all successors or all predecessors of some vertex. We improve most of the existing results in this area.

For separable metrizable spaces $X,Y$ and a metrizable topological group $Z$ by $S(X\times Y,Z)$ we denote the space of all separately continuous functions $f:X\times Y\to Z$ endowed with the topology of layer-wise uniform convergence,…

The Decomposition Problem in the class $LIP(\mathbb{S}^2)$ is to decompose any bi-Lipschitz map $f:\mathbb{S}^2 \to \mathbb{S}^2$ as a composition of finitely many maps of arbitrarily small isometric distortion. In this paper, we construct…

This paper explores the concept of topological transitivity in nonautonomous dynamical systems, which are defined as sequences of continuous maps from a compact metric space to itself. It investigates various conditions (including…

Suppose $T$ is totally transcendental and every minimal non-locally-modular type is nonorthogonal to a nonisolated minimal type over the empty set. It is shown that a finite rank type $p=tp(a/A)$ is isolated if and only if $a$ is…

We show that if $X$ is a separable locally compact Hausdorff connected space with fewer than $\mathfrak c$ non-cut points, then $X$ embeds into a dendrite $D\subseteq \mathbb R ^2$, and the set of non-cut points of $X$ is a nowhere dense…

We say that a topological space $X$ is selectively highly divergent (SHD) if for every sequence of non-empty open sets $\{U_n\mid n\in\omega \}$ of $X$, we can find $x_n\in U_n$ such that the sequence $(x_n)$ has no convergent subsequences.…
