We say that a 0-1 matrix $N$ of size $a\times b$ can be found in a collection of sets $\mathcal{H}$ if we can find sets $H_{1}, H_{2}, \dots, H_{a}$ in $\mathcal{H}$ and elements $e_1, e_2, \dots, e_b$ in $\cup_{H \in \mathcal{H}} H$ such…

We study the question of the growth of Betti numbers of certain arithmetic varieties in tower of congruence coverings. In fact, our results are about Siegel varieties and varieties associated to orthogonal groups. We explain how a theorem…

We generalize the absolute logarithmic Weil height from elements of the multiplicative group of algebraic numbers modulo torsion, to finitely generated subgoups. The height of a finitely generated subgroup is shown to equal the volume of a…

Starting with a lattice with an action of $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{R}$, we build a Helly graph or an injective metric space. We deduce that the $\ell^\infty$ orthoscheme complex of any bounded graded lattice is injective. We also prove a…

We study the Whitney numbers of the first kind of combinatorial geometries. The first part of the paper is devoted to general results relating the M\"{o}bius functions of nested atomistic lattices, extending some classical theorems in…

Brauer and Thrall conjectured that a finite-dimensional algebra over a field of bounded representation type is actually of finite representation type and a finite-dimensional algebra (over an infinite field) of infinite representation type…

We consider a tuple $\Phi = (\phi_1,\ldots,\phi_m)$ of commuting maps on a finitary matroid $X$. We show that if $\Phi$ satisfies certain conditions, then for any finite set $A\subseteq X$, the rank of $\{\phi_1^{r_1}\cdots\phi_m^{r_m}(a):a…

Let $G$ be an acylindrically hyperbolic group on a $\delta$-hyperbolic space $X$. Assume there exists $M$ such that for any finite generating set $S$ of $G$, the set $S^M$ contains a hyperbolic element on $X$. Suppose that $G$ is…

The illumination conjecture is a classical open problem in convex and discrete geometry, asserting that every compact convex body~$K$ in $\mathbb R^n$ can be illuminated by a set of no more than $2^n$ points. If $K$ has smooth boundary, it…

A well-known conjecture states that the Whitney numbers of the second kind of a geometric lattice (simple matroid) are logarithmically concave. We show this conjecture to be equivalent to proving an upper bound on the number of new copoints…

We prove a new fractional Helly theorem for families of sets obeying topological conditions. More precisely, we show that the nerve of a finite family of open sets (and of subcomplexes of cell complexes) in R^d is k-Leray where k depends on…

We announce new results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the Betti numbers of higher rank locally symmetric spaces as their volumes tend to infinity. Our main theorem is a uniform version of the L\"uck Approximation Theorem…

Let $X$ be a projective variety and let $E$ be a reduced divisor. We study the asymptotic growth of the dimension of the space of global sections of powers of a divisor $D$ on $X\backslash E$. We show that it is always bounded by a…
