This work focuses on the combinatorial properties of glued semigroups and provides its combinatorial characterization. Some classical results for affine glued semigroups are generalized and some methods to obtain glued semigroups are…

Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are quasiconvex and complete metric spaces, that $G\subset X$ and $G'\subset Y$ are domains, and that $f: G\to G'$ is a homeomorphism. Our main result is the following subinvariance property of the class of uniform…

In the present paper, we study the existence of best proximity pairs in ultrametric spaces. We show, under suitable assumptions, that the proximinal pair $(A,B)$ has a best proximity pair. As a consequence we generalize a well known best…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space which is locally absolutely retract and let $\phi: C(X)\to C(Y, M_n)$ be a unital homomorphism, where $Y$ is a compact metric space with ${\rm dim}Y\le 2.$ It is proved that there exists a sequence of $n$…

It is known that PQ-symmetric maps on the boundary characterize the quasi-isometry type of visual hyperbolic spaces, in particular, of geodesically complete \br-trees. We define a map on pairs of PQ-symmetric ultrametric spaces which…

A graph is said to be equimatchable if all its maximal matchings are of the same size. In this work we introduce two extensions of the property of equimatchability by defining two new graph parameters that measure how far a graph is from…

Finite mixture models have long been used across a variety of fields in engineering and sciences. Recently there has been a great deal of interest in quantifying the convergence behavior of the \emph{mixing measure}, a fundamental object…

Using a probabilistic approach, we derive some interesting combinatorial identities involving gamma and beta functions. These results generalize certain well-known combinatorial identities involving binomial coefficients and special…

We establish common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings using an auxiliary function of two variables. Unlike classical results, our theorems do not assume continuity of the mappings and require completeness…

This paper discusses a more general contractive condition for a class of extended cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same…

Parametrization of qutrits on the complex projective plane CP^2 = SU(3)/U(2) is given explicitly. A set of constraints that characterize mixed state density matrices is found.

A common approach for describing classes of functions and probability measures on a topological space $\mathcal{X}$ is to construct a suitable map $\Phi$ from $\mathcal{X}$ into a vector space, where linear methods can be applied to address…

Consider a mapping $f\colon X\to Y$ between two metric measure spaces. We study generalized versions of the local Lipschitz number $\mathrm{Lip} f$, as well as of the distortion number $H_f$ that is used to define quasiconformal mappings.…

In here, I present a series of combinatorial equalities derived using a graph based approach. Different nodes in the graphs are visited following probabilistic dynamics of a moving dot. The results are presented in such a way that the…

We construct universal mixers, incompressible flows that mix arbitrarily well general solutions to the corresponding transport equation, in all dimensions. This mixing is exponential in time (i.e., essentially optimal) for any initial…

We study countable embedding-universal and homomorphism-universal structures and unify results related to both of these notions. We show that many universal and ultrahomogeneous structures allow a concise description (called here a finite…

We investigate properties of families $F$ of subsets of a finite set in a situation where subsets are incomparable by the binary inclusion relation and a) for any $A\notin F$, there is such set $A'\in F$ that either $A\subset A'$ or…

Notions of compatible and almost compatible pseudo-Riemannian metrics, which are motivated by the theory of compatible (local and nonlocal) Poisson structures of hydrodynamic type and generalize the notion of flat pencil of metrics, are…

Let phi and psi be endomorphisms of the projective line of degree at least 2, defined over a noetherian commutative ring R with unity. From a dynamical perspective, a significant question is to determine whether phi and psi are conjugate…

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve $y^2 = f(x)$ over a discretely valued field $K$. The $p$-adic distances between the roots of $f(x)$ can be described by a completely combinatorial object known as the cluster picture. We show that the…
