For the ordered set $[n]$ of $n$ elements, we consider the class $\Bscr_n$ of bases $B$ of tropical Pl\"ucker functions on $2^{[n]}$ such that $B$ can be obtained by a series of mutations (flips) from the basis formed by the intervals in…

Define the complete n-complex on N vertices to be the n-skeleton of an (N-1)-simplex. We show that embeddings of sufficiently large complete n-complexes in R^{2n+1} necessarily exhibit complicated linking behaviour, thereby extending known…

The Wigner-Eckart theorem is a well known result for tensor operators of su(2) and, more generally, any compact Lie algebra. In this paper the theorem will be generalized to the particular non-compact case of sl(2,R). In order to do so,…

Illumination complexes are examples of 'flat polyhedral complexes' which arise if several copies of a convex polyhedron (convex body) Q are glued together along some of their common faces (closed convex subsets of their boundaries). A…

We prove a complex polynomial plank covering theorem for not necessarily homogeneous polynomials. As the consequence of this result, we extend the complex plank theorem of Ball to the case of planks that are not necessarily centrally…

This paper consists of two prongs. Firstly, we prove that any Specht module labelled by a 2-separated partition is semisimple and we completely determine its decomposition as a direct sum of graded simple modules. Secondly, we apply these…

Using the theory of resolving classes, we show that if $X$ is a CW complex of finite type such that $\map_*(X, S^{2n+1})\sim *$ for all sufficiently large $n$, then $\map_*(X, K) \sim *$ for every simply-connected finite-dimensional CW…

There is a belief that the Ehrenfest theorem holds true universally. We demonstrate that for a classically nonrelativistic particle constrained on an $N-1$ ($N\geq 2$) curved hypersurface embedded in $N$ flat space, the theorem breaks down.

We study topological spaces with a distinguished set of paths, called directed paths. Since these directed paths are generally not reversible, the directed homotopy classes of directed paths do not assemble into a groupoid, and there is no…

Recently, [{arXiv:0810.3134}] is accepted and published. We present ultimate version of no-hidden-variables theorem. We derive a proposition concerning the quantum theory under the existence of the Bloch sphere in a single spin-1/2 system.…

The conditions for fully supersymmetric backgrounds of general N=2 locally supersymmetric theories are derived based on the off-shell superconformal multiplet calculus. This enables the derivation of a non-renormalization theorem for a…

Consider the regular $n$-simplex $\Delta_n$ - it is formed by the convex-hull of $n+1$ points in Euclidean space, with each pair of points being in distance exactly one from each other. We prove an exact bound on the width of $\Delta_n$…

The aim of this note is to show that the "usual" proof of the Maschke Theorem in the case of a real and complex field can not be generalized at least to the case of a field of rational functions on a non-singular curve.

We construct a 3-dimensional cell complex that is the 3-skeleton for an Eilenberg--MacLane classifying space for the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. Our complex starts with the presentation for $\mathfrak{S}_n$ with $n-1$ adjacent…

The shape of homogeneous, generic, smooth convex bodies as described by the Euclidean distance with nondegenerate critical points, measured from the center of mass represents a rather restricted class M_C of Morse-Smale functions on S^2.…

We publicise a proof of the Jordan Curve Theorem which relates it to the Phragmen-Brouwer Property, and whose proof uses the van Kampen theorem for the fundamental groupoid on a set of base points.

In analogy with classical submanifold theory, we introduce morphisms of real metric calculi together with noncommutative embeddings. We show that basic concepts, such as the second fundamental form and the Weingarten map, translate into the…

It was pointed out long ago by Vainshtein [Phys. Lett. 39B, 393 (1972)] that the weak-field perturbation expansion of generic theories (of the nonlinear Fierz-Pauli type) involving massive spin-2 excitations breaks down below a certain…

We employ projective Fra\"iss\'e theory to define the "generic combinatorial $n$-simplex" as the pro-finite, simplicial complex that is canonically associated with a family of simply defined selection maps between finite triangulations of…

A weak version of Birkhoff's generalization of the Perron-Frobenius theorem states that every endomorphism of a finite-dimensional real vector that leaves invariant a non-degenerate closed convex cone has an eigenvector in that cone. Here,…
