We explore two constructions of oligomorphic Jordan permutation groups preserving a `limit of betweenness relations' and a `limit of $D$-relations', from \cite{bhattmacph2006jordan} and \cite{almazaydeh2021jordan} respectively. Several…

The general theory developed by Ben Yaacov for metric structures provides Fra\"iss\'e limits which are approximately ultrahomogeneous. We show here that this result can be strengthened in the case of relational metric structures. We give an…

We construct via Fra\"iss\'e amalgamation an $\omega$-categorical structure whose automorphism group is an infinite oligomorphic Jordan primitive permutation group preserving a `limit of $D$-relations'. The construction is based on a…

We apply a categorical lens to the study of betweenness relations by capturing them within a topological category, fibred in lattices, and study several subcategories of it. In particular, we show that its full subcategory of finite objects…

Two subsets $A, B$ of the plane are betweenness isomorphic if there is a bijection $f\colon A\to B$ such that, for every $x,y,z\in A$, the point $f(z)$ lies on the line segment connecting $f(x)$ and $f(y)$ if and only if $z$ lies on the…

Betweenness as a relation between three individual points has been widely studied in geometry and axiomatized by several authors in different contexts. The article proposes a more general notion of betweenness as a relation between three…

The ternary betweenness relation of a tree, B(x,y,z) expresses that y is on the unique path between x and z. This notion can be extended to order-theoretic trees defined as partial orders such that the set of nodes larger than any node is…

A linking system of difference sets is a collection of mutually related group difference sets, whose advantageous properties have been used to extend classical constructions of systems of linked symmetric designs. The central problems are…

The aim of this paper is to define and study the constructions of alternating and symmetric (super)powers of metric generalized Jordan (super)pairs. These constructions are obtained by transference via the Faulkner construction. The…

The paper is devoted to modal properties of the ternary strict betweenness relation as used in the development of various systems of geometry. We show that such a relation is non-definable in a basic similarity type with a binary operator…

The arrow relation, a central concept in extremal set theory, captures quantitative relationships between families of sets and their traces. Formally, the arrow relation $(n, m) \rightarrow (a, b)$ signifies that for any family $\mathcal{F}…

We present a construction, called the limit of a tree system of spaces (or, less formally, a tree of spaces). The construction is designed to produce compact metric spaces that resemble fractals, out of more regular spaces, such as closed…

In this paper, six constructions of difference families are presented. These constructions make use of difference sets, almost difference sets and disjoint difference families, and give new point of views of relationships among these…

The ternary relation $B(x,y,z)$ of betweenness states that an element $y$ is between the elements $x$ and $z$, in some sense depending on the considered structure. In a partially ordered set $(N,\leq)$, $B(x,y,z):\Longleftrightarrow…
