Toll convexity is a variation of the so-called interval convexity. A tolled walk $T$ between $u$ and $v$ in $G$ is a walk of the form $T: u,w_1,\ldots,w_k,v,$ where $k\ge 1$, in which $w_1$ is the only neighbor of $u$ in $T$ and $w_k$ is…
We present a single, connected tile which can tile the plane but only non-periodically. The tile is hexagonal with edge markings, which impose simple rules as to how adjacent tiles are allowed to meet across edges. The first of these rules…
An aperiodic tile set was first constructed by R. Berger while proving the undecidability of the domino problem. It turned out that aperiodic tile sets appear in many topics ranging from logic (the Entscheidungsproblem) to physics…
The correspondence between 2-parameter families of oriented lines in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ and surfaces in $T{\Bbb{P}}^1$ is studied, and the geometric properties of the lines are related to the complex geometry of the surface. Congruences…
We introduce a square tiling/tetragonal strip representation to the P, D, and G triply periodic minimal surfaces. This approach is useful in identifying mixtures and grain boundaries of these surfaces that might be useful for material…
Let $X$ be a measure space with a measure-preserving action $(g,x) \mapsto g \cdot x$ of an abelian group $G$. We consider the problem of understanding the structure of measurable tilings $F \odot A = X$ of $X$ by a measurable tile $A…
Let $S$ be a standard graded polynomial ring over a field, and $I$ be a homogeneous ideal that contains a regular sequence of degrees $d_1,\ldots,d_n$. We prove the Eisenbud-Green-Harris conjecture when the forms of the regular sequence…
We study the dissection of a square into congruent convex polygons. Yuan \emph{et al.} [Dissecting the square into five congruent parts, Discrete Math. \textbf{339} (2016) 288-298] asked whether, if the number of tiles is a prime number…
We extend to several dimensions the result of K. Seip and Y.I. Lyubarskii that proves the existence of Riesz basis of exponentials for a finite union of intervals with equals lengths.
Given a log smooth scheme $(X,D)$, and a log \'etale modification $(\tilde{X},\tilde{D}) \rightarrow (X,D)$, we relate the punctured Gromov-Witten theory of $(\tilde{X},\tilde{D})$ to the punctured Gromov-Witten theory of $(X,D)$,…
A recent article of J.P. Bell, K. Huang, W. Peng and T.J. Tucker establishes an analog of the Tits alternative for semigroups of endomorphisms of the projective line. The proof involves a ping-pong argument on arithmetic height functions.…
We prove that the gcd of certain infinite number of integers associated to generalised arithmetic progressions remains bounded independent of the progression. Using this we also get bounds on the indices of certain congruence subgroups of…
In this revised version (August 2025), we add a survey of \infty-categorical (co)limits and a replacement lemma for higher functoriality (Lem. 1.4.5), a framework for explicit models of punctured tubular neighborhoods ({\S}3.4), and a new…
For an abelian variety over a finite field, Clozel (1999) showed that l-homological equivalence coincides with numerical equivalence for infinitely many l, and the author (1999) gave a criterion for the Tate conjecture to follow from Tate's…
The linear stability of closed timelike geodesics (CTGs) is analyzed in two spacetimes with cylindrical sources, an infinite rotating dust cylinder, and a cylindrical cloud of static cosmic strings with a central spinning string. We also…
A tiling of $\mathbb{R}^d$ is repulsive if no $r$-patch can repeat arbitrarily close to itself, relative to $r$. This is a characteristic property of aperiodic order, for a non repulsive tiling has arbitrarily large local periodic patterns.…
We give criteria of total incomparability for certain classes of mixed Tsirelson spaces. We show that spaces of the form $T[(M_k,\theta_k)_{k=1}^{\ell}]$ with index $i(M_k)$ finite are either $c_0$ or $\ell_p$ saturated for some $p$ and we…
We develop a geometric framework that unifies several different combinatorial fixed-point theorems related to Tucker's lemma and Sperner's lemma, showing them to be different geometric manifestations of the same topological phenomena. In…
The Hales-Jewett theorem for alphabet of size 3 states that whenever the Hales-Jewett cube [3]^n is r-coloured there is a monochromatic line (for n large). Conlon and Kamcev conjectured that, for any n, there is a 2-colouring of [3]^n for…
