A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that has different lengths in two directions. We develop the basic theory of projective rectangles including incidence properties, projective subplanes, configuration counts, a partial…
We propose some new method of constructing configurations, which consists in consecutive inscribing copies of one underlying configuration. A uniform characterization of the obtained class and the one introduced in our paper untitled…
We survey noncommutative Choquet theory and some of its applications.
This is a short expository article on alternating knots and is to appear in the Concise Encyclopedia of Knot Theory.
This paper is a survey on Deduction modulo theory
These are the notes from my courses on the arithmetic of quadratic forms.
The aim of this survey article is to highlight several notoriously intractable problems about knots and links, as well as to provide a brief discussion of what is known about them.
This note contains a new combinatorial proof of Cramer's rule based on the Gessel-Viennot-Lindstrom Lemma.
We provide a simple proof for the union-closed sets conjecture, a long-standing open problem in set theory with immediate applications to graph theory, number theory, and order-theory.
These Notes deal with various areas of mathematics, and seek reciprocal combinations, explore mutual relations, ranging from abstract objects to problems in physics.
In this dissertation, we explore the structure of inversion graphs of permutations--a class of graphs that naturally arises by representing each permutation as a graph, where vertices correspond to entries and edges encode inversions.…
A combinatorial object representing schemas of, possibly skew, perspectives, called {\em a configuration of skew perspective} is defined. Some classifications of skew perspectives are presented.
The aim of this paper is to give a simple construction of the free skew-brace over a set $X$.
Trees are partial orders in which every element has a linearly ordered set of predecessors. Here we initiate the exploration of the structural theory of trees with the study of different notions of \emph{branching in trees} and of…
Simple constructions are given for finite semifields that include as special cases both old semifields and recently constructed semifields.
This paper argues that mathematical objects are constructions and that constructions introduce a flexibility in the ways that mathematical objects are represented (as sets of binary sequences for example) and presented (in a particular…
We present the basic ideas of forms (a generalization of Ehresmann's sketches) and their theories and models, more explicitly than in previous expositions. Forms provide the ability to specify mathematical structures and data types in any…
We describe a notion of (abstract) projective line over a field as a set equipped with a certain first order structure, and a projectivity between projective lines as a bijection preserving this structure. The structure in question is that…
These notes are a self-contained introduction to Galois theory, designed for the student who has done a first course in abstract algebra.
In this paper, we present a method to construct the Leech lattice from other Niemeier lattices.
