The pseudo-circle is known to be nonhomogeneous. The original proofs of this fact were discovered independently by L. Fearnley and J.T. Rogers, Jr. The purpose of this paper is to provide an alternative, very short proof based on a result…
We establish a structure theorem for the family of Ammann A2 tilings of the plane. Using that theorem we show that every Ammann A2 tiling is self-similar in the sense of [B. Solomyak, Nonperiodicity implies unique composition for…
The integrability problem for transitive Lie algebroids can be looked at from different perspectives, revealing an interplay between cohomological methods and homotopical constructions. Mackenzie introduced a cohomological obstruction…
We introduce a theory of stratifications of noncommutative stacks (i.e. presentable stable $\infty$-categories), and we prove a reconstruction theorem that expresses them in terms of their strata and gluing data. This reconstruction theorem…
A fake octagon is a genus two translation surface with only one singular point and the same periods as the octagon. Existence of infinitely many fakes was first established by McMullen in 2007, and more generally follows from dynamical…
We prove the existence of ``pure tone'' nonlinear sound waves of all frequencies. These are smooth, space and time periodic, oscillatory solutions of the $3\times3$ compressible Euler equations in one space dimension. Being perturbations of…
I give a survey of different combinatorial forms of alternating-sign matrices, starting with the original form introduced by Mills, Robbins and Rumsey as well as corner-sum matrices, height-function matrices, three-colorings, monotone…
This paper aims to better understand the link better understand the links between aperiodicity in subshifts and pattern complexity. Our main contribution deals with substitutive subshifts, an equivalent to substitutive tilings in the…
It was shown by Connes, Douglas, Schwarz[1] that one can compactify M(atrix) theory on noncommutative torus. We prove that compactifications on Morita equivalent tori are physically equivalent. This statement can be considered as a…
In the course of the proof of the irrationality of zeta(2) R. Apery introduced numbers b_n = \sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k}^2{n+k \choose k}. Stienstra and Beukers showed that for the prime p > 3 Apery numbers satisfy congruence b((p-1)/2) =…
We introduce an elementary method to give unified proofs of the Dyson, Morris, and Aomoto identities for constant terms of Laurent polynomials. These identities can be expressed as equalities of polynomials and thus can be proved by…
Moir\'e patterns are omnipresent. They are important for any overlapping periodic phenomenon, from vibrational and electromagnetic, to condensed matter. Here we show, both theoretically and via experimental simulations by ultracold atoms,…
I present a simple, elementary proof of Morley's theorem, highlighting the naturalness of this theorem.
We give a combinatorial extension of the classical inequalities of Maclaurin about symmetric functions of several variables. We discuss two problems - one analytical and another combinatorial - and show that they are in some sense…
Mills, Robbins, and Rumsey conjectured, and Zeilberger proved, that the number of alternating sign matrices of order $n$ equals $A(n):={{1!4!7! ... (3n-2)!} \over {n!(n+1)! ... (2n-1)!}}$. Mills, Robbins, and Rumsey also made the stronger…
The so-called "einstein problem" (a pun playing with the famous scientist's name and the German term "ein Stein" for "one stone") asks for a simply connected prototile only allowing nonperiodic tilings without need of any matching rule. So…
We produce a new, shorter construction of a minor-universal planar graph.
An alternative form of Fermats equation[1] is proposed. It represents a portion of the identity that includes three terms of Fermats original equation. This alternative form permits an elementary and compact proof of the first case of…
This text is a presentation (without proofs) of some of my recent results on the singular terms of asymptotic expansions of period-integrals using (a,b)-modules. I try to explain why this simple algebraic structure is interesting and…
A variety of algebras is called Cross if it is finitely based, finitely generated, and has finitely many subvarieties. In present article, we classify all Cross varieties of aperiodic monoids with commuting idempotents.
