Locally ordered spaces can be used as topological models of concurrent programs: the local order models the irreversibility of time during execution. Under certain conditions, one can even work with locally ordered manifolds. In this paper,…
Binary codes are constructed from incidence matrices of hypergraphs. A combinatroial description is given for the minimum distances of such codes via a combinatorial tool called ``eonv". This combinatorial approach provides a faster…
In this paper we establish a general framework in which the verification of support theorems for generalized convex functions acting between an algebraic structure and an ordered algebraic structure is still possible. As for the domain…
This is both an expository and research paper where we advocate a systematic study of continuous analogues of finite partially ordered sets, convex polytopes, oriented matroids, arrangements of subspaces, finite simplicial complexes, and…
Baranyai's theorem is a well-known theorem in the theory of hypergraphs. A corollary of this theorem says that one can partition the family of all $u$-subsets of an $n$-element set into ${n-1\choose u-1}$ sub-families such that each…
A small cover was introduced by Davis and Januszkiewicz as an $n$-dimensional closed manifold with a locally standard $Z_2)^n$-action such that its orbit space is a simple convex polytope. There exist a one-to-one correspondence between…
A decade ago two groups of authors, Karasev, Hubard and Aronov, and Blagojevi\'c and Ziegler, have shown that the regular convex partitions of a Euclidean space into $n$ parts yield a solution to the generalised Nandakumar and Ramana-Rao…
We study monoids equipped with a second binary operation that captures the structure of the endomorphisms of an object $X$ such that $X=X\times X$. We construct a universal monoid of this type and examine some of its rich combinatorial…
By using a combination of algebraic, geometric, and dynamical techniques, together with input from higher dimensional Diophantine approximation, we give a complete characterization of all linearly repetitive cut and project sets with…
We consider countable linear orders and study the quasi-order of convex embeddability and its induced equivalence relation. We obtain both combinatorial and descriptive set-theoretic results, and further extend our research to the case of…
Let $P_{n}$ be a set of $n$ points, including the origin, in the unit square $U = [0,1]^2$. We consider the problem of constructing $n$ axis-parallel and mutually disjoint rectangles inside $U$ such that the bottom-left corner of each…
It is well known that finite-dimensional polyhedral convex sets can be generated by finitely many points and finitely many directions. Representation formulas in this spirit are obtained for convex polyhedra and generalized convex polyhedra…
The uniform Kruskal theorem extends the original result for trees to general recursive data types. As shown by A. Freund, M. Rathjen and A. Weiermann, it is equivalent to $\Pi^1_1$-comprehension, over $\mathsf{RCA_0}$ with the chain…
In a previous work arXiv:physics/0611108v2, it was shown that the volume spanned by a molecular system in its conformational space can be effectively bounded by a polyhedral cone, this cone is described by means of a simple combinatorial…
Ben-Sasson and Sudan (RSA 2006) showed that repeated tensor products of linear codes with a very large distance are locally testable. Due to the requirement of a very large distance the associated tensor products could be applied only over…
Research on Helly-type theorems in combinatorial convex geometry has produced volumetric versions of Helly's theorem using witness sets and quantitative extensions of Doignon's theorem. This paper combines these philosophies and presents…
We give a general method to build categories of combinatorial manifolds, i.e. categories of combinatorial objects satisfying some local property at every "point", as coreflective subcategories of categories of relational presheaves. To do…
We establish a general framework for construction of small ensembles of capacity achieving linear codes for a wide range of (not necessarily memoryless) discrete symmetric channels, and in particular, the binary erasure and symmetric…
Euler showed that the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts. This theorem was generalized by Glaisher and further by Franklin. Recently, Beck made three conjectures on…
Extending results of Suss and Hadwiger (proved by them for the case of convex bodies and positive ratios), we show that compact (respectively, closed) convex sets in the Euclidean space of dimension n are homothetic provided for any given…
