Let $\mathcal{I}$ be an ideal on $\omega$ and $X$ be a topological space. A sequence $(x_n)_{n\in \omega}$ in $X$ is $\mathcal{I}$-convergent if there is $x\in X$ such that $\{n\in \omega:x_n\notin U\}\in\mathcal{I}$ for every open…

We consider the problem of partitioning effectively a given symmetric (and irreflexive) rational relation R into two asymmetric rational relations. This problem is motivated by a recent method of embedding an R-independent language into one…

We show that if $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$, defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ by a cubic form that splits off two forms, with $n\geq 11$, then $X(\mathbb{Q})$ is non-empty. The same holds for an $(m_1,m_2)$-form with $m_1\geq 4$ and $m_2\geq 5$.

Let $G$ be a simple graph on the vertex set $\{v_{1},\ldots,v_{n}\}$. An algebraic object attached to $G$ is the toric ideal $I_G$. We say that $I_G$ is subgraph splittable if there exist subgraphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ of $G$ such that…

Let X and Y be curves over a finite field. In this article we explore methods to determine whether there is a rational map from Y to X by considering L-functions of certain covers of X and Y and propose a specific family of covers to…

Interval graphs and interval orders are deeply linked. In fact, edges of an interval graphs represent the incomparability relation of an interval order, and in general, of different interval orders. The question about the conditions under…

We investigate the poset (P(X),\subset), where P(X) is the set of isomorphic suborders of a countable ultrahomogeneous partial order X. For X different from (resp. equal to) a countable antichain the order types of maximal chains in…

A group topology is said to be linear if open subgroups form a base of neighborhoods of the identity element. It is proved that the existence of a nondiscrete extremally disconnected group of Ulam nonmeasurable cardinality with linear…

None of the first-order modal logics between $\mathsf{K}$ and $\mathsf{S5}$ under the constant domain semantics enjoys Craig interpolation or projective Beth definability, even in the language restricted to a single individual variable. It…

Given two messages - as linear sequences of letters, it is immediate to determine whether one can be transformed into the other by simple substitution cipher of the letters. On the other hand, if the letters are carried as labels on nodes…

We prove that if $1 \leq p, q \leq \infty$, then the spaces $L_p +L_q$ and $L_p \cap L_q$ are isomorphic if and only if $p = q$. In particular, $L_2 +L_{\infty}$ and $L_2 \cap L_{\infty}$ are not isomorphic which is an answer to a question…

We prove a categorical duality between a class of abstract algebras of partial functions and a class of (small) topological categories. The algebras are the isomorphs of collections of partial functions closed under the operations of…

Let A = Z[c], where c is an irrational number whose square is rational, or let A = Z[1/r], where r > 1 is a square-free natural number. We show that no finite-index subgroup of SL(2,A) is left orderable. (Equivalently, these subgroups have…

We study poset limits given by sequences of finite interval orders or, as a special case, finite semiorders. In the interval order case, we show that every such limit can be represented by a probability measure on the space of closed…

It is known that the set of tautologies of second order intuitionistic propositional logic, $\mathrm{IPC} 2$, is undecidable. Here, we prove that the sets of formulas of $\mathrm{IPC} 2$ which are true in the algebra of open subsets of…

It was recently shown \cite{STV} that satisfiability is polynomially solvable when the incidence graph is an interval bipartite graph (an interval graph turned into a bipartite graph by omitting all edges within each partite set). Here we…

Let $A$ and $B$ be finite ordered sets. We show that if the ordered sets of isotone self-maps $A^A$ and $B^B$ (ordered pointwise) are isomorphic, then $A$ and $B$ are isomorphic. This resolves a question originating with D. Duffus in 1978,…

A linear-interval order is the intersection of a linear order and an interval order. For this class of orders, several structural results have been known. This paper introduces a new subclass of linear-interval orders. We call a partial…

We prove that for a bijective, unital, linear map between absolute order unit spaces is an isometry if, and only if, it is absolute value preserving. We deduce that, on (unital) $JB$-algebras, such maps are precisely Jordan isomorphisms.…

This work can be thought as a contribution to the model theory of group extensions. We study the groups G which are interpretable in the disjoint union of two structures (seen as a two-sorted structure). We show that if one of the two…
