We prove that the number of connected components in the intersection of two open opposite Schubert cells in the variety of complete real n-dimensional flags equals 3*2^{n-1} for n>5.
A lattice L is slim if it is finite and the set of its join-irreducible elements contains no three-element antichain. Slim, semimodular lattices were previously characterized by G. Cz\'edli and E.T. Schmidt as the duals of the lattices…
The highest possible minimal norm of a unimodular lattice is determined in dimensions n <= 33. There are precisely five odd 32-dimensional lattices with the highest possible minimal norm (compared with more than 8*10^20 in dimension 33).…
The sets of all neutral, distributive and lower-modular elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties are finite, countably infinite and uncountably infinite, respectively. In 2018, we established that there are precisely three neutral…
In an earlier paper (math.NT/9906019) we showed that any integral unimodular lattice L of rank n which is not isometric with Z^n has a characteristic vector of norm at most n-8. [A "characteristic vector" of L is a vector w in L such that…
The notion of $n$-normal residuated lattice, as a class of residuated lattices in which every prime filter contains at most $n$ minimal prime filters, is introduced and studied. Before that, the notion of $\omega$-filter is introduced and…
In this expository note, we introduce the reader to compositions of a natural number, e.g., $2+1+2+1+7+1$ is a composition of 14, and $1+2$ and $2+1$ are two different compositions of 3. We discuss some simple restricted forms of…
We survey results concerning special elements of nine types (modular, lower-modular, upper-modular, cancellable, distributive, codistributive, standard, costandard and neutral elements) in the lattice of all semigroup varieties and certain…
Lattices are simplified by removing some of their doubly irreducible elements, resulting in smaller lattices called racks. All vertically indecomposable modular racks of $n \le 40$ elements are listed, and the numbers of all modular…
A lattice is $(1+1+2)$-generated if it has a four-element generating set such that exactly two of the four generators are comparable. We prove that the lattice Quo$(n)$ of all quasiorders (also known as preorders) of an $n$-element set is…
In this note, we obtain an upper bound on the maximum number of distinct non-empty palindromes in starlike trees. This bound implies, in particular, that there are at most $4n$ distinct non-empty palindromes in a starlike tree with three…
Extremal problems related to the enumeration of graph substructures, such as independent sets, matchings, and induced matchings, have become a prominent area of research with the advancement of graph theory. A subset of vertices is called a…
For every integer $n$ with $n \geq 6$, we prove that the Boolean dimension of a poset consisting of all the subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ equipped with the inclusion relation is strictly less than $n$.
A modular form for an even lattice L of signature (2,n) is said to be 2-reflective if its zero divisor is set-theoretically contained in the Heegner divisor defined by the (-2)-vectors in L. We prove that there are only finitely many even…
We give bijective results between several variants of lattice paths of length $2n$ (or $2n-2$) and integer compositions of n, all enumerated by the seemingly innocuous formula $4^{n-1}$. These associations lead us to make new connections…
Motivated by the recent result of Farhi we show that for each $n\equiv \pm 1\pmod{6}$ the title Diophantine equation has at least two solutions in integers. As a consequence, we get that each (even) perfect number is a sum of three cubes of…
We describe $\{2,3\}$-groups in which the order of a product of any two elements of orders at most $4$ does not exceed $9$ and the centralizer of every involution is a locally cyclic $2$-subgroup. In particular, we will prove that these…
For a positive integer $s$, a lattice $L$ is said to be $s$-integrable if $\sqrt{s}\cdot L$ is isometric to a sublattice of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ for some integer $n$. Conway and Sloane found two minimal non $2$-integrable lattices of rank $12$…
The set of all cancellable elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties has recently been shown to be countably infinite. But the description of all cancellable elements of the lattice $\mathbb{MON}$ of monoid varieties remains unknown.…
The principle result of this article is the determination of the possible finite subgroups of arithmetic lattices in U(2,1).
