We give an upper bound on the volume vol(P*) of a polytope P* dual to a d-dimensional lattice polytope P with exactly one interior lattice point, in each dimension d. This bound, expressed in terms of the Sylvester sequence, is sharp, and…
In this paper we model discontinuous extended real functions in pointfree topology following a lattice-theoretic approach, in such a way that, if $L$ is a subfit frame, arbitrary extended real functions on $L$ are the elements of the…
We show that h*-vectors of alcoved polytopes P in R^n (of Lie type A) are unimodal if they contain interior lattice points and their facets have lattice distance 1 to the set of interior lattice points. The maximal possible such distance…
The paper deals with special types of $L$-ordered set, $L$-fuzzy complete lattices, and fuzzy directed complete posets (fuzzy $dcpo$s). First, a theorem for constructing monotone maps is proved, a characterization for monotone maps on an…
A lattice in Euclidean $d$-space is called well-rounded if it contains $d$ linearly independent vectors of minimal length. This class of lattices is important for various questions, including sphere packing or homology computations. The…
A lattice $L$ is said lowly finite if the set $[\mathsf{0},a]$ is finite for every element $a$ of $L$. We mainly aim to provide a complete proof that, if $M$ is a subset of a complete lowly finite distributive lattice $L$ containing its…
We investigate the set-theoretic properties of the lattice of projections in the Calkin algebra of a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space in relation to those of the Boolean algebra $P(\omega)/{\rm fin}$, which is isomorphic to the…
For a closure space (P,f) with f(\emptyset)=\emptyset, the closures of open subsets of P, called the regular closed subsets, form an ortholattice Reg(P,f), extending the poset Clop(P,f) of all clopen subsets. If (P,f) is a finite convex…
An integral domain $D$ is called a finite factorization domain (FFD) if every nonzero nonunit element of $D$ has only finitely many non-associate divisors. In 1998, for an integral domain $D$ and a cancellative torsion-free monoid $S$ such…
For a nonempty polyhedral set $P\subset \mathbb R^d$, let $\mathcal F(P)$ denote the set of faces of $P$, and let $N(P,F)$ be the normal cone of $P$ at the nonempty face $F\in\mathcal F(P)$. We prove that the function $\sum_{F\in\mathcal…
It has been shown by Soprunov that the normalized mixed volume (minus one) of an $n$-tuple of $n$-dimensional lattice polytopes is a lower bound for the number of interior lattice points in the Minkowski sum of the polytopes. He defined…
We introduce a pointfree theory of convergence on lattices and coframes. A convergence lattice is a lattice $L$ with a monotonic map $\lim_L$ from the lattice of filters on $L$ to $L$, meant to be an abstract version of the map sending…
In his seminal 1951 paper "Extreme forms" Coxeter \cite{cox51} observed that for $n \ge 9$ one can add vectors to the perfect lattice $\sfA_9$ so that the resulting perfect lattice, called $\sfA_9^2$ by Coxeter, has exactly the same set of…
We establish a lower bound theorem for the number of $k$-faces ($1\le k\le d-2$) in a $d$-dimensional polytope $P$ (abbreviated as a $d$-polytope) with $2d+2$ vertices, extending the previously known case for $k=1$. We identify all…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring of prime characteristic $p$ and $f:R\to R$ the Frobenius ring homomorphism. For $e\ge 1$ let $R^{(e)}$ denote the ring $R$ viewed as an $R$-module via $f^e$. Results of Peskine, Szpiro, and…
Let $D$ be the set of $n\times n$ positive semidefinite matrices of trace equal to one, also known as the set of density matrices. We prove two results on the hardness of approximating $D$ with polytopes. First, we show that if $0 <…
We consider classes of arbitrary (finite or infinite) graphs of bounded shrub-depth, specifically the class $\mathrm{TM}_{r, p}(d)$ of $p$-labeled arbitrary graphs whose underlying unlabeled graphs have tree models of height $d$ and $r$…
We show various properties of smooth projective D-affine varieties. In particular, any smooth projective D-affine variety is algebraically simply connected and its image under a fibration is D-affine. In characteristic zero such D-affine…
An $(n-1)$-tuple $a = (a(1), \dots, a(n-1))$ consisting of positive integers is said to be asymptotically hollow if there exist infinitely many positive integers $N$ such that the convex hull, $K(a(n))$, in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space…
The aim of this book is to show that the use of f-analytic families of finite type cycles (cycles having finitely many irreducible components, but not compact in general) in a given complex space may be useful in complex geometry, despite…
