Let $\mathcal{C}(G)$ denote the Chabauty space of closed subgroups of the locally compact group $G$. In this paper, we first prove that $\mathcal{C} (\mathbb{Q}_p^\times)$ is a proper compactification of $\mathbb{N}$, identified with the…
For each Cantor set C in $R^{3}$, all points of which have bounded local genus, we show that there are infinitely many inequivalent Cantor sets in $R^{3}$ with complement having the same fundamental group as the complement of C. This…
We describe a procedure for classifying 4D N=2 superconformal theories of the type introduced by Davide Gaiotto. Any punctured curve, C, on which the 6D (2,0) SCFT is compactified, may be decomposed into 3-punctured spheres, connected by…
We discuss three problems of Koszmider on the structure of the spaces of continuous functions on the Stone compact $K_{\mathcal A}$ generated by an almost disjoint family $\mathcal A$ of infinite subsets of $\omega$ -- we present a solution…
Let $K(\gamma)$ be the weakly equilibrium Cantor type set introduced in [10]. It is proven that the monic orthogonal polynomials $Q_{2^s}$ with respect to the equilibrium measure of $K(\gamma)$ coincide with the Chebyshev polynomials of the…
Let $C$ be the middle-third Cantor set. Define $C*C=\{x*y:x,y\in C\}$, where $*=+,-,\cdot,\div$ (when $*=\div$, we assume $y\neq0$). Steinhaus \cite{HS} proved in 1917 that \[ C-C=[-1,1], C+C=[0,2]. \] In 2019, Athreya, Reznick and Tyson…
We extend the cosmological bootstrap to correlators involving massless particles with spin. In de Sitter space, these correlators are constrained both by symmetries and by locality. In particular, the de Sitter isometries become conformal…
In this note we show that if a continuous-time, nonlinear, time-invariant, finite-dimensional system evolves on a compact subset of Rn and if the Jacobian of the vector field is Hurwitz at each point of the compact set, then there is a…
We show that for every finite subgroup $G$ of $Aut(F_n)$, the fixed point subcomplex $X_n^G$ is contractible, where $F_n$ is the free group on $n$ letters and $X_n$ is the spine of ``auter space'' constructed by Hatcher and Vogtmann. In…
This paper investigates topological reconstruction, related to the reconstruction conjecture in graph theory. We ask whether the homeomorphism types of subspaces of a space $X$ which are obtained by deleting singletons determine $X$…
A central result in extremal set theory is the celebrated theorem of Sperner from 1928, which gives the size of the largest family of subsets of [n] not containing a 2-chain. Erdos extended this theorem to determine the largest family…
Virtually every known pair of isospectral but nonisometric manifolds - with as most famous members isospectral bounded $\mathbb{R}$-planar domains which makes one "not hear the shape of a drum" [13] - arise from the (group theoretical)…
Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an $\mathrm{NIP}$ expansion of $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ by closed subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and continuous functions $f : \mathbb{R}^m \to \mathbb{R}^n$. Then $\mathcal{R}$ is generically locally o-minimal. It follows that if…
We show that there are locally compact spaces that can be condensed onto separable spaces but not onto compact separable spaces. We also show that for every cardinal $\kappa$ there is a locally compact topological group of cardinality…
We construct a family of non-PCF dendrites $K$ in a plane, such that in each of them all subarcs have the same Hausdorff dimension $s$, while the set of $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measures of subarcs connecting the given point and a…
An $r$-skeleton on a compact space is a family of continuous retractions having certain rich properties. The $r$-skeletons have been used to characterized the Valdivia compact spaces and the Corson compact spaces. Here, we characterized a…
We extend the previous analysis of (locally) asymptotically flat solutions of Kaluza-Klein (KK) theory by assuming that the dilaton charge is an independent parameter. This corresponds to a general nondegenerate matrix of charges within the…
We consider triholomorphic maps from an almost hyper-Hermitian manifold $\mathcal{M}^{4m}$ into a hyperK\"ahler manifold $\mathcal{N}^{4n}$. This means that $u \in W^{1,2}$ satisfies a quaternionic del-bar equation. We work under the…
Given $\lambda\in (0,1/2)$, let \begin{equation*} C_\lambda=\set{(1-\lambda)\sum_{i=1}^\infty d_i\lambda^{i-1}:d_i\in\set{0,1}} \end{equation*} be the middle Cantor sets with convex hull $[0, 1]$. We are interested in the set…
A 1910 theorem of Brouwer characterizes the Cantor set as the unique totally disconnected, compact metric space without isolated points. A 1920 theorem of Sierpinski characterizes the rationals as the unique countable metric space without…
