In this note, we present a conjecture on intersections of set families, and a rephrasing of the conjecture in terms of principal downsets of Boolean lattices. The conjecture informally states that, whenever we can express the measure of a…
A $k$-connected set in an infinite graph, where $k > 0$ is an integer, is a set of vertices such that any two of its subsets of the same size $\ell \leq k$ can be connected by $\ell$ disjoint paths in the whole graph. We characterise the…
We present a framework to obtain valid inequalities for a reverse convex set: the set of points in a polyhedron that lie outside a given open convex set. Reverse convex sets arise in many models, including bilevel optimization and…
A tie-point of a compact space is analogous to a cut-point: the complement of the point falls apart into two relatively clopen non-compact subsets. Set-theoretically a tie-point of N* is an ultrafilter whose dual maximal ideal can be…
A coordinate cone in R^n is an intersection of some coordinate hyperplanes and open coordinate half-spaces. A semi-monotone set is a defnable in an o-minimal structure over the reals, open bounded subset of R^n such that its intersection…
We give a complete classification of the ideals of the core of the C*-algebras associated with self-similar maps under a certain condition. Any ideal is completely determined by the intersection with the coefficient algebra C(K) of the…
An open (resp., closed) subset A of a topological space (X, T ) is called C-open (resp., C-closed) set if cl(A) \ A (resp., A \ int(A)) is a countable set. This paper aims to present the concept of C-open and C-closed sets. We first…
For self-similar sets, there are two important separation properties: the open set condition and the weak separation condition introduced by Zerner, which may be replaced by the formally stronger finite type property of Ngai and Wang. We…
Given a coloring of the k-element subsets of an uncountable separable metric space, we show that there exists an infinite monochromatic subset which contains its limit point.
We obtain sufficient conditions under which the limit of a sequence of functions exhibits a particular dynamical behaviour at a point like expansivity, shadowing, mixing, sensitivity and transitivity. We provide examples to show that the…
Let $n > k > 1$ be integers, $[n] = \{1, \ldots, n\}$. Let $\mathcal F$ be a family of $k$-subsets of~$[n]$. The family $\mathcal F$ is called intersecting if $F \cap F' \neq \emptyset$ for all $F, F' \in \mathcal F$. It is called almost…
We present examples of realcompact spaces with closed subsets that are C*-embedded but not C-embedded, including one where the closed set is a copy of the space of natural numbers.
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be any collection of linearly separable sets of a set $P$ of $n$ points either in $\mathbb{R}^2$, or in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We show that for every natural number $k$ either one can find $k$ pairwise disjoint sets in…
A multiple (loc. Cohen Macaulay) structure, X, on a space curve C in P3 is said to be primitive if X is locally contained in a smooth surface. We give numerical conditions for C to be a "primitive" set theoretic complete intersection (i.e.…
We address some of the most commonly raised questions about entanglement, especially with regard to so-called occupation number entanglement. To answer unambiguously whether entanglement can exist in a one-atom delocalized state, we propose…
In this short note we show that Helly's Intersection Theorem holds for convex sets in uniquely geodesic spaces (in particular in CAT(0) spaces) without the assumption that the convex sets are open or closed.
The study of Lipschitz equivalence of fractals is a very active topic in recent years. It is natural to ask when two fractal sets are strictly H\"older equivalent. In the present paper, we completely characterize the strict H\"older…
Symmetry breaking--the phenomenon in which the symmetry of a system is not inherited by its stable states--underlies pattern formation, superconductivity, and numerous other effects. Recent theoretical work has established the possibility…
We show that Sturm's classical separation theorem on the interlacing of the zeros of linearly independent solutions of real second order two-term ordinary differential equations necessarily fails in the presence of a unique turning point in…
Homoclinic classes of generic $C^1$-diffeomorphisms are maximal transitive sets and pairwise disjoint. We here present a model explaining how two different homoclinic classes may intersect, failing to be disjoint. For that we construct a…
