Let ${\mathcal H}$ denote the class of all normalized complex-valued harmonic functions $f=h+\bar{g}$ in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$, and let $K=H+\bar{G}$ denote the harmonic Koebe function. Let $a_n,b_n, A_n, B_n$ denote the Maclaurin…

Let $E\subset \mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$, be a set of finite perimeter with $|E|=|B|$, where $B$ denotes the unit ball. When $n=2$, since convexification decreases perimeter (in the class of open connected sets), it is easy to prove the…

Given a graph G, we construct a simple, convex polytope whose face poset is based on the connected subgraphs of G. This provides a natural generalization of the Stasheff associahedron and the Bott-Taubes cyclohedron. Moreover, we show that…

A multi-objective optimization problem is $C^r$ weakly simplicial if there exists a $C^r$ surjection from a simplex onto the Pareto set/front such that the image of each subsimplex is the Pareto set/front of a subproblem, where $0\leq r\leq…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be the subdivision of $\mathbb{R}^d$ induced by $m$ convex polyhedra having $n$ facets in total. We prove that $\mathcal{A}$ has combinatorial complexity $O(m^{\lceil d/2 \rceil} n^{\lfloor d/2 \rfloor})$ and that this…

Given any order ideal $U$ consisting of color-squarefree monomials involving variables with $d$ colors, we associate to it a balanced $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complex $\Delta_{\mathrm{bal}}(U)$ that we call a balanced squeezed…

Let P be a polygonal curve in R^d of length n, and S be a point-set of size k. We consider the problem of finding a polygonal curve Q on S such that all points in S are visited and the Fr\'echet distance from $P$ is less than a given…

Properties of two classes of generally convex sets in the n-dimentional real Euclidean space, called m-semiconvex and weakly m-semiconvex, 1<=m<n, are investigated in the present work. In particular, it is established that an open set with…

D.Bayer and D.Mumford introduced the degree complexity of a projective scheme for the given term order as the maximal degree of the reduced Gr\"{o}bner basis. It is well-known that the degree complexity with respect to the graded reverse…

We investigate the arithmetic formula complexity of the elementary symmetric polynomials S(k,n). We show that every multilinear homogeneous formula computing S(k,n) has size at least k^(Omega(log k))n, and that product-depth d multilinear…

This paper focuses on vertices of the master corner polyhedra $P(G,g_0),$ the core of the group-theoretical approach to integer linear programming. We introduce two combinatorial operations that transform each vertex of $P(G,g_0)$ to…

We generalize the classical Henneberg minimal surface by giving an infinite family of complete, finitely branched, non-orientable, stable minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These surfaces can be grouped into subfamilies depending on a…

We consider the following problem: minimize the functional $\int_\Omega f(\nabla u(x))\, dx$ in the class of concave functions $u: \Omega \to [0,M]$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ is a convex body and $M > 0$. If $f(x) = 1/(1 +…

The cyclohedron (Bott-Taubes polytope) arises both as the polyhedral realization of the poset of all cyclic bracketings of a circular word and as an essential part of the Fulton-MacPherson compactification of the configuration space of n…

We consider a smooth Euclidean solid cone endowed with a smooth homogeneous density function used to weight Euclidean volume and hypersurface area. By assuming convexity of the cone and a curvature-dimension condition we prove that the…

In this paper, we classify the congruence classes of $\mathbf{F}^5_{n(2)}$-polyhedra, i.e. $(n-1)$-connected, at most $(n+5)$-dimensional polyhedra with 2-torsion free homology. The proof relies on the matrix problem technique which was…

We continue the study of counting complexity begun in [Buergisser, Cucker 04] and [Buergisser, Cucker, Lotz 05] by proving upper and lower bounds on the complexity of computing the Hilbert polynomial of a homogeneous ideal. We show that the…

This paper deals with the numerical computation of the least singular value of a rectangular matrix $A$ relative to a pair of closed convex cones $(P,Q)$, which is defined as the optimal value of the non-convex optimization problem of…

We say that two classes of topological spaces are equivalent if each member of one class has a homeomorphic copy in the other class and vice versa. Usually when the Borel complexity of a class of metrizable compacta is considered, the class…

Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring, containing a field $k$, with $1/2\in k$, $\dim A=d$, and let $P$ be a projective $A$-module or $rank(P)=n$. In continuation of \cite{MM}, we study Homotopy obstructions for $P$ to split off a free…
