For every pair of vertices u and v with d(u; v) = n, Wun G v denotes the set of all vertices of G that are closer to u than to v. In this paper, we introduce quasi-({\lambda}; n)-distance-balanced graphs and then study some properties of…
Unconventional superconductors exhibit multiple broken symmetries and exceed the range of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory. For instance, time-reversal symmetry can be broken in addition to the gauge symmetry, resulting in…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of nearly convex set-valued mappings and investigate fundamental properties of these mappings. Additionally, we establish a geometric approach for generalized differentiation of nearly convex…
We define a $C(k)$ to be a family of $k$ sets $F_1,\dots,F_k$ such that $\textrm{conv}(F_i\cup F_{i+1})\cap \textrm{conv}(F_j\cup F_{j+1})=\emptyset$ when $\{i,i+1\}\cap \{j,j+1\}=\emptyset$ (indices are taken modulo $k$). We show that if…
A combinatorial design is a family of sets that are almost disjoint, which is applied in pseudo random number generations and randomness extractions. The parameter, $\rho$, quantifying the overlap between the sets within the family, is…
We show that there exists an absolute constant $C>0$ such that any family $\mathcal{F}\subset \{0,1\}^n$ of size at least $Cn^3$ has dual VC-dimension at least 3. Equivalently, every family of size at least $Cn^3$ contains three sets such…
We introduce a new quasi-isometry invariant of 2-dimensional right-angled Coxeter groups, the hypergraph index, that partitions these groups into infinitely many quasi-isometry classes, each containing infinitely many groups. Furthermore,…
The beta family owes its privileged status within unit interval distributions to several relevant features such as, for example, easyness of interpretation and versatility in modeling different types of data. However, its flexibility at the…
The Hosoya polynomial is a well known vertex-distance based polynomial, closely correlated to the Wiener index and the hyper-Wiener index, which are widely used molecular-structure descriptors. In the present paper we consider the edge…
We consider the family of graphs whose vertex set is $\mathbb{Z}^n$ where two vertices are connected by an edge when their $\ell_\infty$-distance is 1. Towards an edge isoperimetric inequality for this graph, we calculate the edge boundary…
Limits of densities belonging to an exponential family appear in many applications, {e.g.} Gibbs models in Statistical Physics, relaxed combinatorial optimization, coding theory, critical likelihood computations, Bayes priors with singular…
A convex code is a binary code generated by the pattern of intersections of a collection of open convex sets in some Euclidean space. Convex codes are relevant to neuroscience as they arise from the activity of neurons that have convex…
Spectral measurements of boundary localized in-gap modes are commonly used to identify topological insulators via the bulk-boundary correspondence. This can be extended to high-order topological insulators for which the most striking…
Finite convex geometries are combinatorial structures. It follows from a recent result of M.\ Richter and L.G.\ Rogers that there is an infinite set $T_{rr}$ of planar convex polygons such that $T_{rr}$ with respect to geometric convex…
We develop a formalism that describes the bending and twisting of axoneme-like filament bundles. We obtain general formulas to determine the relative sliding between any arbitrary filaments in a bundle subjected to unconstrained…
We show that if $A$ is a closed subset of the Heisenberg group whose vertical projections are nowhere dense, then the complement of $A$ is quasiconvex. In particular, closed sets which are null sets for the cc-Hausdorff $3$-measure have…
Every link is shown to be presentable as a boundary of an unknotted flat banded surface. A (flat) banded link is defined as a boundary of an unknotted (flat) banded surface. A link's (flat) band index is defined as the minimum number of…
In this paper infinite families of linear binary nested completely regular codes are constructed. They have covering radius $\rho$ equal to $3$ or $4$, and are $1/2^i$-th parts, for $i\in\{1,\ldots,u\}$ of binary (respectively, extended…
The notion of $(k,m)$-agreeable society was introduced by Deborah Berg et al.: a family of convex subsets of $\R^d$ is called $(k,m)$-agreeable if any subfamily of size $m$ contains at least one non-empty $k$-fold intersection. In that…
We characterize the fractional Dehn twist coefficient (FDTC) on the $n$-stranded braid group as the unique homogeneous quasimorphism to the real numbers of defect at most 1 that equals 1 on the positive full twist and vanishes on the…
