Circle packings are arrangement of circles satisfying specified tangency requirements. Many problems about packing of circles and spheres occur in nature particularly in material design and protein structure. Surprisingly, little is known…
The problem of completing a low-rank matrix from a subset of its entries is often encountered in the analysis of incomplete data sets exhibiting an underlying factor model with applications in collaborative filtering, computer vision and…
This paper studies the properties of two kinds of matroids: (a) algebraic matroids and (b) finite and infinite matroids whose ground set have some canonical symmetry, for example row and column symmetry and transposition symmetry. For (a)…
Mathematical theories are classified in two distinct classes : {\it rigid}, and on the other hand, {\it non-rigid} ones. Rigid theories, like group theory, topology, category theory, etc., have a basic concept - given for instance by a set…
We consider matrices with entries in a local ring, Mat(m,n;R). Fix an action of group G on Mat(m,n;R), and a subset of allowed deformations, \Sigma in Mat(m,n;R). The standard question (along the lines of Singularity Theory) is the…
We give a negative answer to the rigidity conjecture of He and Schramm by constructing a rigid circle domain $\Omega$ on the Riemann sphere with conformally non-removable boundary. Here rigidity means that every conformal map from $\Omega$…
We introduce the concept of strongly independent matrices over any field, and prove the existence of such matrices for certain fields and the non-existence for algebraically closed fields. Then we apply strongly independent matrices over…
We show that under certain boundedness condition, a $C^{r}$ conservative irrational pseudo-rotations on $\mathbb{T}^2$ with a generic rotation vector is $C^{r-1}$-rigid. We also obtain $C^0$-rigidity for H\"older pseudo-rotations with…
Hadamard ideals were introduced in 2006 as a set of nonlinear polynomial equations whose zeros are uniquely related to Hadamard matrices with one or two circulant cores of a given order. Based on this idea, the cocyclic Hadamard test enable…
A matrix is \emph{simple} if it is a (0,1)-matrix and there are no repeated columns. Given a (0,1)-matrix $F$, we say a matrix $A$ has $F$ as a \emph{configuration}, denoted $F\prec A$, if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and…
In this paper a variety of issues are discussed, Schur ring, $S$-sets, circulant orbits, decimation operator and Hadamard matrices and their relation between them is shown. Firstly we define the complete $S$-sets. Next, we study the…
A compact space $X$ is said to be minimal if there exists a map $f:X\to X$ such that the forward orbit of any point is dense in $X$. We consider rigid minimal spaces, motivated by recent results of Downarowicz, Snoha, and Tywoniuk [J. Dyn.…
We study the existence and construction of circulant matrices $C$ of order $n\geq2$ with diagonal entries $d\geq0$, off-diagonal entries $\pm1$ and mutually orthogonal rows. These matrices generalize circulant conference ($d=0$) and…
Primary Cyclic matrices were used (but not named) by Holt and Rees in their version of Parker's MEAT-AXE algorithm to test irreducibility of finite matrix groups and algebras. They are matrices $X$ with at least one cyclic component in the…
We show that the property of F-regularity does not deform, and thereby settle this longstanding open question in the theory of tight closure. Specifically, we construct a three dimensional domain R which is not F-regular (or even F-pure),…
In this paper, the notion of proper proximality (introduced in [BIP18]) is studied and classified in various families of groups. We show that if a group acts non-elementarily by isometries on a tree such that for any two edges, the…
We look at $d$-point extensions of a rotation of angle $\alpha$ with $r$ marked points, generalizing the examples of Veech 1969 and Sataev 1975, together with the square-tiled interval exchange transformations of \cite{fh2}. We study the…
A linearly constrained framework in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a point configuration together with a system of constraints which fixes the distances between some pairs of points and additionally restricts some of the points to lie in given affine…
We define the rigidity of a Feynman integral to be the smallest dimension over which it is non-polylogarithmic. We argue that massless Feynman integrals in four dimensions have a rigidity bounded by 2(L-1) at L loops, and we show that this…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a matrix for its centralizer in $\sf{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})$ to be polycyclic, or equivalently in this case, not to contain a non-abelian free subgroup. We give a simple condition on the matrix…
