This work is concerned with the prime factor decomposition (PFD) of strong product graphs. A new quasi-linear time algorithm for the PFD with respect to the strong product for arbitrary, finite, connected, undirected graphs is derived.…
We study the problem of embedding bipartite graphs in Ahlfors-David regular sets of large dimension using results from extremal graph theory. Our main theorem states that any graph satisfying a power-improving bound on the extremal number…
Equiangular tight frames (ETFs) and biangular tight frames (BTFs) - sets of unit vectors with basis-like properties whose pairwise absolute inner products admit exactly one or two values, respectively - are useful for many applications. A…
We introduce a new family $\mathcal{A}_{n,k}$ of Schur positive symmetric functions, which are defined as sums over totally symmetric plane partitions. In the first part, we show that, for $k=1$, this family is equal to a multivariate…
We classify affine varieties with an action of a connected, reductive algebraic group such that the group is isomorphic to an open orbit in the variety. This is accomplished by associating a set of one-parameter subgroups of the group to…
This article gives an elementary and formal 2-categorical construction of a bicategory of right fractions analogous to anafunctors, starting from a 2-category equipped with a family of covering maps that are fully faithful and co-fully…
Let n,p,k be three positive integers. We prove that the numbers binomial (n,k) 3F2 (1-k, -p, p-n ; 1, 1-n ; 1) are positive integers which generalize the classical binomial coefficients. We give two generating functions for these integers,…
Let $F$ be a function from $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ to itself and $\delta$ a positive integer. $F$ is called zero-difference $\delta$-balanced if the equation $F(x+a)-F(x)=0$ has exactly $\delta$ solutions for all non-zero $a\in\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$.…
In this paper we develop a classification of real functions based on growth rates of repeated iteration. We show how functions are naturally distinguishable when considering inverses of repeated iterations. For example, $n+2\to 2n\to 2^n\to…
We study the two families of AdS$_3\times S^3\times S^2\times \Sigma_2$ solutions to massive Type IIA supergravity with small and large $(0,4)$ supersymmetries constructed recently in the literature, in connection with the AdS$_7\times…
We study a family of variants of Jensen's\emph{subcomplete forcing axiom}, $\mathsf{SCFA}$ and \emph{subproper forcing axiom}, $\mathsf{SubPFA}$. Using these we develop a general technique for proving non-implications of $\mathsf{SCFA}$,…
In this paper, we construct a new family of $(q^4+1)$-tight sets in $Q(24,q)$ or $Q^-(25,q)$ according as $q=3^f$ or $q\equiv 2\pmod 3$. The novelty of the construction is the use of the action of the exceptional simple group $F_4(q)$ on…
We extend the theory of local constants to l-adic families of representations of GL_n(F) where F is a p-adic field with l not equal to p. We construct zeta integrals and gamma factors for representations coming from the conjectural "local…
We introduce and study the family of uniformly super McDuff II$_1$ factors. This family is shown to be closed under elementary equivalence and also coincides with the family of II$_1$ factors with the Brown property introduced in…
There is an ``algebraisation'' of the notion of weak factorisation system (w.f.s.) known as a natural weak factorisation system. In it, the two classes of maps of a w.f.s. are replaced by two categories of maps-with-structure, where the…
A graph $G$ is pseudo 2--factor isomorphic if the parity of the number of cycles in a 2--factor is the same for all 2--factors of $G$. In \cite{ADJLS} we proved that pseudo 2--factor isomorphic $k$--regular bipartite graphs exist only for…
We consider a family of two-valued "fully evaluated left-sequential logics" (FELs), of which Free FEL (defined by Staudt in 2012) is most distinguishing (weakest) and immune to atomic side effects. Next is Memorising FEL, in which…
We classify a one-parameter family, $\mathfrak{confcarr}_z(d+1)$, of conformal extensions of the Carroll algebra in arbitrary dimension with $z$ being the anisotropic scaling exponent. We further obtain their infinite-dimensional…
Algebraic weak factorisation systems (AWFS) refine weak factorisation systems by requiring that the assignations sending a map to its first and second factors should underlie an interacting comonad--monad pair on the arrow category. We…
We characterize when a size-2 positive semidefinite (psd) factorization of a positive matrix of rank 3 and psd rank 2 is unique. The characterization is obtained using tools from rigidity theory. In the first step, we define…
