Kakeya sets are compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that contain a unit line segment pointing in every direction. The Kakeya conjecture states that such sets must have Hausdorff dimension $n$. The property of stickiness was first discovered…

The dominant rational maps of finite degree from a fixed variety to varieties of general type, up to birational isomorphisms, form a finite set. This has been known as the Iitaka-Severi conjecture, and is nowdays an established result, in…

We present a generalized set of complex rays for a qutrit in terms of parameter $q=e^{i2\pi/k}$, a $k$-th root of unity. Remarkably, when $k=2,3$, the set reduces to two well known state-independent contextuality (SIC) sets: the Yu-Oh set…

Let $\mathcal{K}$ be a discrete valued field with finite residue field. In analogy with orthogonality in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, there is a well-studied notion of "ultrametric orthogonality" in $\mathcal{K}^n$. In this paper,…

Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra and $H$ a Hilbert space. The cone $\CP(A,B(H))$ of completely positive maps carries the Bures metric $\beta$, closely related to the cb-norm. We introduce a family of Bures--Kuratowski (BK) metrics on…

Combinatorial aspects of R-subgroups of finite dimensional Beidleman near-vector spaces over nearfields are studied. A characterization of R-subgroups is used to obtain the smallest possible size of a generating set of a subgroup, which is…

The VC-dimension, introduced by Vapnik and Chervonenkis in 1968 in the context of learning theory, has in recent years provided a rich source of problems in combinatorial geometry. Given $E\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^d$ or $E\subseteq…

TO APPEAR IN AEQUATIONES MATHEMATICAE - WITHOUT THEOREM 2. THEOREM 2 IS CORRECTLY PROVED IN PREVIOUS VERSIONS 1 AND 2. AUTHOR'S VERSION 3 (WITH A NEW FIGURE 6A) IS UNNECESSARY. Let F \subseteq R denote the field of numbers which are…

In this paper, we improve the finiteness constant for the finiteness principles for $C^m(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{R}^d)$ and $C^{m-1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{R}^D)$ selection proven by Fefferman, Israel, and the second author and extend the more…

An infinite structure has the finite length property (over a given field) if, for each of its finite powers, chains of equivariant subspaces in the corresponding free vector space are bounded in length. Prior work showed that the countable…

We show that bounded type implies finite type for a constructible subcategory of the module category of a finitely generated algebra over a field, which is a variant of the first Brauer-Thrall conjecture. A full subcategory is constructible…

The Hirzebuch-Riemann-Roch (HRR) and Lefschetz type formulas for finite dimensional elementary algebras of finite global dimension are explicitly given. They have cohomological, homological, Hochschild cohomological and Hochschild…

We derive lower estimates for the approximation of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean ball by polytopes with a fixed number of $k$-dimensional faces, $k\in\{0,1,\ldots,d-1\}$. The metrics considered include the intrinsic volume difference and…

Let $R$ be a semiartinian (von Neumann) regular ring with primitive factors artinian. The dimension sequence $\mathcal D _R$ is an invariant that captures the various skew-fields and dimensions occurring in the layers of the socle sequence…

We give several characterizations of those finite dimensional HSRK with complete Pick kernels which are model spaces. One characterization involves the size of the solution to a multiplier problem. Another involves having a conjugation…

Let n and d be positive integers, let k be a field and let P(n,d;k) be the space of the polynomials in n variables of degree at most d with coefficients in k. Let B(n,d) be the set of the Bernstein-Sato polynomials of all polynomials in…

For any compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^3$ we define a number $r(K)$ that is either a nonnegative integer or $\infty$. Intuitively, $r(K)$ provides some information on how wildly $K$ sits in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We show that attractors for…

Let $K$ be a field and $V$ be a set of rank one valuations of $K$. The corresponding Tate-Shafarevich group of a $K$-torus $T$ is $Sha(T , V) = \ker\left(H^1(K , T) \to \prod_{v \in V} H^1(K_v , T)\right)$. We prove that if $K = k(X)$ is…

We define normalized versions of Berkovich spaces over a trivially valued field $k$, obtained as quotients by the action of $\mathbb R_{>0}$ defined by rescaling semivaluations. We associate such a normalized space to any special formal…

It is well known that the description of topological and geometric properties of bisectors in normed spaces is a non-trivial subject. In this paper we introduce the concept of bounded representation of bisectors in finite dimensional real…
