We present a surprisingly short proof that for any continuous map $f : \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m$, if $n>m$, then there exists no bound on the diameter of fibers of $f$. Moreover, we show that when $m=1$, the union of small…

We say that $f:[0,1]\to [0,1]$ is a {\it piecewise continuous interval map} if there exists a partition $0=x_0<x_1<\cdots<x_{d}<x_{d+1}=1$ of $[0,1]$ such that $f\vert_{(x_{i-1},x_i)}$ is continuous and the lateral limits $w_0^+=\lim_{x\to…

This note deals with the direct and inverse spectral analysis for a class of infinite band symmetric matrices. This class corresponds to operators arising from difference quations with usual and inner boundary conditions. We give a…

McConnell [FOCS 2001] presented a flipping transformation from circular-arc graphs to interval graphs with certain patterns of representations. Beyond its algorithmic implications, this transformation is instrumental in identifying all…

In this article, we investigate the relationship between the shadowing property of set-valued maps and their associated inverse limit systems. We show that if a set-valued map is expansive and open in the context of set-valued dynamics,…

We prove asymptotic 0-1 Laws satisfied by diagrams of unimodal sequences of positive integers. These diagrams consist of columns of squares in the plane, and the upper boundary is called the shape. For various types, we show that, as the…

We generalise clones, which are sets of functions $f:A^n \rightarrow A$, to sets of mappings $f:A^n \rightarrow A^m$. We formalise this and develop language that we can use to speak about it. We then look at bijective mappings, which have…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges. A subset $C\subseteq V$ is called \emph{identifying} if for every vertex $x\in V$ the intersection of $C$ and the closed neighbourhood of $x$ is nonempty, and these…

The edges surrounding a face of a map $M$ form a cycle $C$, called the boundary cycle of the face, and $C$ is often not a simple cycle. If the map $M$ is arc-transitive, then there is a cyclic subgroup of automorphisms of $M$ which leaves…

In this paper we recall some results and some criteria on the convergence of matrix continued fractions. The aim of this paper is to give some properties and results of continued fractions with matrix arguments. Then we give continued…

Although inverse limits with factor spaces indexed by the positive integers are most commonly studied, Ingram and Mahavier have defined inverse limits with set-valued functions broadly enough for any directed index set to be used. In this…

Consider d uniformly random permutation matrices on n labels. Consider the sum of these matrices along with their transposes. The total can be interpreted as the adjacency matrix of a random regular graph of degree 2d on n vertices. We…

A field $k$ is called large if every irreducible $k$-curve with a $k$-rational smooth point has infinitely many $k$-points. Let $k$ be a perfect large field and let $f \in k[x]$. Consider the evaluation map $f_k: k \to k$. Assume that $f_k$…

Guided by classical concepts, we define the notion of \emph{ends} of an iterated function system and prove that the number of ends is an upper bound for the number of nondegenerate components of its attractor. The remaining isolated points…

For maps of one complex variable, $f$, given as the sum of a degree $n$ power map and a degree $d$ polynomial, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions that the geometric limit as $n$ approaches infinity of the set of points that…

Elek and Lippner (2010) showed that the convergence of a sequence of bounded-degree graphs implies the existence of a limit for the proportion of vertices covered by a maximum matching. We provide a characterization of the limiting…

We describe the framework for the notion of a restricted inverse limit of categories, with the main motivating example being the category of polynomial representations of the group $GL_{\infty}$. This category is also known as the category…

We discuss asymptotics for large random planar maps under the assumption that the distribution of the degree of a typical face is in the domain of attraction of a stable distribution with index $\alpha\in(1,2)$. When the number $n$ of…

In the paper we study what sets can be obtained as $\alpha$-limit sets of backward trajectories in graph maps. We show that in the case of mixing maps, all those $\alpha$-limit sets are $\omega$-limit sets and for all but finitely many…

The \emph{fractional matching preclusion number} of a graph $G$, denoted by $fmp(G)$, is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph that has no fractional perfect matchings. In this paper, we first give some sharp upper…
