A ballean (or coarse structure) is a set endowed with some family of subsets, the balls, is such a way that balleans with corresponding morphisms can be considered as asymptotic counterparts of uniform topological spaces. For a ballean…
A ballean $\mathcal{B}$ (or a coarse structure) on a set $X$ is a family of subsets of $X$ called balls (or entourages of the diagonal in $X\times X$) defined in such a way that $\mathcal{B}$ can be considered as the asymptotic counterpart…
A set $X$ endowed with a coarse structure is called ballean or coarse space. For a ballean $(X, \mathcal{E})$, we say that two subsets $A$, $B$ of $X$ are close (linked) if there exists an entourage $E\in \mathcal{E}$ such that $A\subseteq…
A ballean is a set endowed with some family of its subsets which are called the balls. We postulate the properties of the family of balls in such a way that the balleans can be considered as the asymptotic counterparts of the uniform…
By a ballean we understand a set $X$ endowed with a family of entourages which is a base of some coarse structure on $X$. Given two unbounded ballean $X,Y$ with normal product $X\times Y$, we prove that the balleans $X,Y$ have bounded…
A ballean is a set $X$ endowed with some family $\F$ of its subsets, called the balls, in such a way that $(X,\F)$ can be considered as an asymptotic counterpart of a uniform topological space. Given a cardinal $\kappa$, we define $\F$…
A ballean (or coarse space) is a set endowed with a coarse structure. A ballean $X$ is called normal if any two asymptotically disjoint subsets of $X$ are asymptotically separated. We say that a ballean $X$ is ultranormal (extremely normal)…
We survey and analyze different ways in which bornologies, coarse structures and uniformities on a group agree with the group operations.
The purpose of this note is to work out the details of the concrete incarnation of a few categorical constructions (products, coproducts, pullbacks, pushouts, equalizers, coequalizers, and exponentials) in some useful and basic categories:…
A vector balleans is a vector space over $\mathbb{R}$ endowed with a coarse structure in such a way that the vector operations are coarse mappings. We prove that, for every ballean $(X, \mathcal{E})$, there exists the unique free vector…
Let $B_{x}\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ denote the Euclidean ball with diameter $[0,x]$, i.e. with with center at $\frac{x}{2}$ and radius $\frac{\left|x\right|}{2}$. We call such a ball a petal. A flower $F$ is any union of petals, i.e.…
We present an algebraic approach to the internal structure of baryons in terms of three constituents. We investigate a collective model in which the nucleon is regarded as a rotating and vibrating oblate top with a prescribed distribution…
We construct embeddings of simplicial complexes into a (surface of a) simplicial ball whose triangulation has bounded degrees and low volume. This construction can be used either to efficiently "simplify a complicated space" by realizing it…
We define the bounded coarse structure attached to a family of pseudometrics and give some counterexamples to conjectures that arise naturally.
We characterise when a set of simple closed curves in an orientable surface forms a bouquet, in terms of relations between the corresponding Dehn twists.
A bornology on a set $X$ is a family $\mathcal{B}$ of subsets of $X$ closed under taking subsets, finite unions and such that $\cup \mathcal{B}=X$. We prove that, for a bornology $\mathcal{B}$ on $X$, the following statements are…
A chain poset, by definition, consists of chains of ordered elements in a poset. We study the chain posets associated to two posets: the Boolean algebra and the poset of isotropic flags. We prove that, in both cases, the chain posets…
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 develop a coarse notion of bundle and use it to understand the coarse geometry of group extensions and, more generally, groups acting on proper metric spaces. The results are particularly sharp for groups acting on (locally finite) trees…
For a tensor triangulated category which is well generated in the sense of Neeman, it is shown that the collection of Bousfield classes forms a set. This set has a natural structure of a complete lattice which is then studied, using the…
