We prove a common strengthening of B\'ar\'any's colorful Carath\'eodory theorem and the KKMS theorem. In fact, our main result is a colorful polytopal KKMS theorem, which extends a colorful KKMS theorem due to Shih and Lee [Math. Ann. 296…
This paper details the lesser known conditions on ${\mathbb {R}}^{n}$ for the integrability of pfaffian forms, or 1-forms. Emphasis is given to locality of these conditions, and proofs in some additional detail are provided for theorems due…
We give a simple proof of Gromov's Theorem on nilpotentization of vector fields, and exhibit a new method for obtaining quantitative estimates of comparing geometries of two different local Carnot groups in Carnot--Carath\'{e}odory spaces…
Asymptotic properties of matrices are, in general, difficult to analyze with classical mathematical techniques. In very specific cases, there is a well-known connection between the asymptotic behavior of a matrix's leading eigenvector and…
We prove a general version of the classical Perron-Frobenius convergence property for reducible matrices. We then apply this result to reducible substitutions and use it to produce limit frequencies for factors and hence invariant measures…
The paper introduces and studies differentially positive systems, that is, systems whose linearization along an arbitrary trajectory is positive. A generalization of Perron Frobenius theory is developed in this differential framework to…
The Carath\'eodory form of the calculus of variations belongs to the class of Lepage equivalents of first-order Lagrangians in field theory. Here, this equivalent is generalized for second- and higher-order Lagrangians by means of intrisic…
The Frobenius-Perron theory of an endofunctor of a category was introduced in recent years [12, 13]. We apply this theory to monoidal (or tensor) triangulated structures of quiver representations.
Deciding the positivity of a sequence defined by a linear recurrence with polynomial coefficients and initial condition is difficult in general. Even in the case of recurrences with constant coefficients, it is known to be decidable only…
We give an elementary proof of a Caratheodory-type result on the invertibility of a sum of matrices, due first to Facchini and Barioli. The proof yields a polynomial identity, expressing the determinant of a large sum of matrices in terms…
Electron pairing at low temperatures leads to superconductivity. A fundamental question is whether more complex states - characterized by order in four-electron composite objects, termed electron quadrupling or composite order - can exist…
The Frobenius-Perron theory of an endofunctor of a $\Bbbk$-linear category (recently introduced in [CG]) provides new invariants for abelian and triangulated categories. Here we study Frobenius-Perron type invariants for derived categories…
In this paper we study the (classical) Frobenius problem, namely the problem of finding the largest integer that cannot be represented as a nonnegative integral combination of given relatively prime (strictly) positive integers (known as…
We prove a common extension of Bang's and Kadets' lemmas for contact pairs, in the spirit of the Colourful Carath\'eodory Theorem. We also formulate a generalized version of the affine plank problem and prove it under special assumptions.…
For any cubic graph in a closed orientable surface and a perfect matching, the Penrose-Kauffman polynomial is a sum of chromatic polynomials of a collection of associated graphs. A knot-theoretic perspective affords elementary proofs of old…
An exterior differential calculus in the general framework of generalized Lie algebroids is presented. A theorem of Maurer-Cartan type is obtained. All results with details proofs are presented and a new point of view over exterior…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a finite-dimensional subspace of $C(\mathcal{X};\mathbb{R})$, where $\mathcal{X}$ is a locally compact Hausdorff space, and $\mathsf{A}=\{f_1,\dots,f_m\}$ a basis of $\mathcal{A}$. A sequence $s=(s_j)_{j=1}^m$ is called…
Carath\'eodorys Theorem of convex hulls plays an important role in convex geometry. In 1982, B\'ar\'any formulated and proved a more general version, called the Colorful Carath\'eodory. This colorful version was even more generalized by…
Motivated by works on extension sets in standard domains we introduce a notion of the Carath\'eodory set that seems better suited for the methods used in proofs of results on characterization of extension sets. A special stress is put on a…
We introduce a finiteness property for braided fusion categories, describe a conjecture that would characterize categories possessing this, and verify the conjecture in a number of important cases. In particular we say a category has F if…
