A linear map $\Phi :\mathbb{M}_n \to \mathbb{M}_k$ is called completely copositive if the resulting matrix $[\Phi (A_{j,i})]_{i,j=1}^m$ is positive semidefinite for any integer $m$ and positive semidefinite matrix $[A_{i,j}]_{i,j=1}^m$. In…

Suppose $H$ is a finite dimensional reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions on $X.$ If $H$ has the complete Pick property then there is an isometric map, $\Phi,$ from $X,$ with the metric induced by $H,$ into complex hyperbolic space,…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital complex Banach algebras having no quotients isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}$ or $M_2(\mathbb{C})$. Assume additionally that $B$ is semisimple. If a surjective additive mapping $\Phi\colon A\to B$ satisfies…

We prove that two infinite p-adic semi-algebraic sets are isomorphic (i.e. there exists a semi-algebraic bijection between them) if and only if they have the same dimension.

Milner's bigraphs are a general framework for reasoning about distributed and concurrent programming languages. Notably, it has been designed to encompass both the pi-calculus and the Ambient calculus. This paper is only concerned with…

Let $\Phi(x,y)\in\mathbb{C}[x,y]$ be a symmetric polynomial of partial degree $d$. The graph $G(\Phi)$ is defined by taking $\mathbb{C}$ as set of vertices and the points of $\mathbb{V}(\Phi(x,y))$ as edges. We study the following problem:…

In analogy with the semi-Fibonacci partitions studied recently by Andrews, we define semi-Pell compositions and semi-$m$-Pell compositions. We find that these are in bijection with certain weakly unimodal $m$-ary compositions. We give…

This survey studies pairs $(G,\mathcal{P})$ with $G$ a finitely generated group and $\mathcal{P}$ a (finite) collection of subgroups of $G$. We explore the notion of quasi-isometry of such pairs and the notion of a qi-characteristic…

We show that the metric structure of morphisms $f\colon Y\to X$ between quasi-smooth compact Berkovich curves over an algebraically closed field admits a finite combinatorial description. In particular, for a large enough skeleton…

Let M be a 7-manifold with a G2-structure defined by \phi \in\Omega^{3}_{+}(M). We prove that {\phi} is conformal-Killing with respect to the associated metric g(\phi) if and only if the G2-structure is nearly parallel. Let M be an…

A small part of real line which is very close to zero has rich combinatorial properties. The aim of this paper is to express and then prove some locally combinatorial concepts near a virtual idempotent by considering the…

A partial automorphism of a semigroup $S$ is any isomorphism between its subsemigroups, and the set all partial automorphisms of $S$ with respect to composition is the inverse monoid called the partial automorphism monoid of $S$. Two…

We continue the analysis of definably compact groups definable in a real closed field $\mathcal{R}$. In [3], we proved that for every definably compact definably connected semialgebraic group $G$ over $\mathcal{R}$ there are a connected…

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are important for biological functions. In contrast to folded proteins, molecular recognition among certain IDPs is "fuzzy" in that their binding and/or phase separation are stochastically governed…

Given a flat metric one may generate a local Hamiltonian structure via the fundamental result of Dubrovin and Novikov. More generally, a flat pencil of metrics will generate a local bi-Hamiltonian structure, and with additional…

The goal of this chapter is to illustrate a generalization of the Fibonacci word to the case of 2-dimensional configurations on $\mathbb{Z}^2$. More precisely, we consider a particular subshift of $\mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{Z}^2}$ on the…

In this paper, we study properties of asymptotic resemblance relations induced by compatible coarse structures on groups. We generalize the notion of asymptotic dimensiongrad for groups with compatible coarse structures and show this notion…

We consider arrangements of $n$ pseudo-lines in the Euclidean plane where each pseudo-line $\ell_i$ is represented by a bi-infinite connected $x$-monotone curve $f_i(x)$, $x \in \mathbb{R}$, s.t.\ for any two pseudo-lines $\ell_i$ and…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. Then $H$ is called a weakly $S\Phi$-supplemented subgroup of $G$, if there exists a subgroup $T$ of $G$ such that $G =HT$ and $H \cap T \leq \Phi (H) H_{sG}$, where $H_{sG}$ denotes…

Crystal graphs are powerful combinatorial tools for working with the plactic monoid and symmetric functions. Quasi-crystal graphs are an analogous concept for the hypoplactic monoid and quasi-symmetric functions. This paper makes a…
