We give two characterizations of $\mathcal P$-like continua $X$ that do not have the fixed point property. Both characterizations are stated in terms of sequences of open covers of $X$ that follow fixed-point-free patterns. We use these to…
Suppose that a $X$ is an \emph{unshielded} plane continuum (i.e., $X$ coincides with the boundary of the unbounded complementary component of $X$). Then there exists a \emph{finest monotone} map $m:X\to L$, where $L$ is a locally connected…
We discuss the asymptotic structure of spacetimes, presenting a new construction of ideal points at infinity and introducing useful topologies on the completed space. Our construction is based on structures introduced by Geroch, Kronheimer,…
A planar integral point set is a set of non-collinear points in plane such that for any pair of the points the Euclidean distance between the points is integral. We discuss the classification of planar integral point sets and provide…
The paper identifies families of quasi-stationary initial conditions for infinite Brownian particle systems within a large class and provides a construction of the particle systems themselves started from such initial conditions. Examples…
We study the vibrational spectrum of a constrained classical ring. Due to the presence of 2-order exceptional points, a topologically trivial band at the infinity can make the vibrational band topologically nontrivial. The symmetry, which…
Given a closed subscheme $Z$ of a polarized abelian variety $(A,\ell)$ we define its vanishing threshold with respect to $\ell$ and relate it to the Seshadri constant of the ideal defining $Z.$ As a particular case, we introduce the notion…
We consider the Poisson Boolean percolation model in $\mathbb{R}^2$, where the radii of each ball is independently chosen according to some probability measure with finite second moment. For this model, we show that the two thresholds, for…
We study the sets of planes in an even dimensional real vector space $V$ which are simultaneously stabilised by a pair of complex structures on $V$. We completely describe these sets of planes for pairs of orthogonal complex structures.…
The recent proliferation of correlated percolation models---models where the addition of edges/vertices is no longer independent of other edges/vertices---has been motivated by the quest to find discontinuous percolation transitions. The…
The connected components of the zero set of any conformal vector field $v$, in a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of arbitrary signature, are of two types, which may be called `essential' and `nonessential'. The former consist of points…
We describe a search for plane-filling curves traversing all edges of a grid once. The curves are given by Lindenmayer systems with only one non-constant letter. All such curves for small orders on three grids have been found. For all…
Continuous models used in physics and other areas of mathematics applications become discrete when they are computerized, e.g., utilized for computations. Besides, computers are controlling processes in discrete spaces, such as films and…
We propose to model the topology of three-dimensional (3D) continua by Yin sets, regular open semianalytic sets with bounded boundary. Our model differs from manifold-based models in that singular points of a 3D continuum, i.e., boundary…
We show, under some natural conditions, that the set of abelian points on the non-anomalous subset of a closed irreducible subvariety $X$ intersected with the union of connected algebraic subgroups of codimension at least $\dim X$ in a…
The equidistant set of two nonempty subsets $K$ and $L$ in the Euclidean plane is a set all of whose points have the same distance from $K$ and $L$. Since the classical conics can be also given in this way, equidistant sets can be…
Since ancient times mathematicians consider geometrical objects with integral side lengths. We consider plane integral point sets $\mathcal{P}$, which are sets of $n$ points in the plane with pairwise integral distances where not all the…
We propose a new constructive model of the real continuum based on the notion of fractal definability. Rather than assuming the continuum as a completed uncountable totality, we view it as the cumulative result of a vast space of stratified…
We consider a simple model of a one dimensional universe embedded in the Euclidean plane. In this model, a circle travelling at constant speed intersects the line in a pair of points which first separate and then rejoin. We interpret this…
The Endpoint Theorem links the existence of a sequence (curve), without accumulation points, in a manifold to the existence of an open embedding of that manifold so that the image of the given sequence (curve) has a unique endpoint. It…
