Convex geometries (Edelman and Jamison, 1985) are finite combinatorial structures dual to union-closed antimatroids or learning spaces. We define an operation of resolution for convex geometries, which replaces each element of a base convex…

A convex geometry is a closure space satisfying the anti-exchange axiom. For several types of algebraic convex geometries we describe when the collection of closed sets is order scattered, in terms of obstructions to the semilattice of…

The following article treats about convex geometries which are lower semi-modular and join semi-distributive lattices. Firstly, it is shown that there is a class $K$ of infinite convex geometries which can be build out of finite ones by…

Very recently Richter and Rogers proved that any convex geometry can be represented by a family of convex polygons in the plane. We shall generalize their construction and obtain a wide variety of convex shapes for representing convex…

We study the algebraic boundary of a convex semi-algebraic set via duality in convex and algebraic geometry. We generalize the correspondence of facets of a polytope to the vertices of the dual polytope to general semi-algebraic convex…

In 1980, Las Vergnas defined a notion of discrete convexity for oriented matroids, which Edelman subsequently related to the theory of anti-exchange closure functions and convex geometries. In this paper, we use generalized matroid activity…

We study structural and topological properties of nested set complexes of matroids with arbitrary building sets, proving that these complexes are vertex decomposable and admit convex ear decompositions. These results unify and generalize…

In the paper we consider convex cones in infinite-dimensional real vector spaces which are endowed with no topology. The main purpose is to study an internal geometric structure of convex cones and to obtain an analytical description of…

Various characterizations of finite convex geometries are well known. This note provides similar characterizations for possibly infinite convex geometries whose lattice of closed sets is strongly coatomic and lower continuous. Some classes…

A convex geometry is a closure system satisfying the anti-exchange property. This paper, following the work of K. Adaricheva and M. Bolat (2016) and the Polymath REU 2020 team, continues to investigate representations of convex geometries…

In this paper we study convex subcomplexes of spherical buildings. We pay special attention to fixed point sets of type-preserving isometries of spherical buildings. This sets are also convex subcomplexes of the natural polyhedral structure…

The notion of "antimatroid with repetition" was conceived by Bjorner, Lovasz and Shor in 1991 as a multiset extension of the notion of antimatroid. When the underlying set consists of only two elements, such two-dimensional antimatroids…

A closure system with the anti-exchange axiom is called a convex geometry. One geometry is called a sub-geometry of the other if its closed sets form a sublattice in the lattice of closed sets of the other. We prove that convex geometries…

Given a finite set $E$ and an operator $\sigma:2^{E}\longrightarrow2^{E}$, two sets $X,Y\subseteq E$ are \textit{cospanning} if $\sigma\left( X\right) =\sigma\left( Y\right) $. Corresponding \textit{cospanning equivalence relations} were…

Representation of convex geometry as an appropriate join of compatible total orderings of the base set can be achieved, when closure operator of convex geometry is algebraic, or finitary. This bears to the finite case proved by P.H.~Edelman…
