The combination of words ``discrete curvature'' is only an apparent contradiction. In this survey we describe curvature notions associated with polygons, polyhedral surfaces, and with abstract polyhedral manifolds. Several theorems about…
Wojtkowski's system of $N$, $N \geq 2$, falling balls is a nonuniformly hyperbolic smooth dynamical system with singularities. It is still an open question whether this system is ergodic. We contribute towards an affirmative answer, by…
We use a Heegaard splitting of the topological 3-sphere as a guiding principle to construct a family of its noncommutative deformations. The main technical point is an identification of the universal C*-algebras defining our quantum…
High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to spherical, Euclidean and…
The study of shape restrictions of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ have several applications in many areas, being convexity, $r$-convexity, and positive reach, some of the most famous, and typically imposed in set estimation. The following…
The problem of a disc and a ball rolling on a horizontal plane without slipping is considered. Differential constrained equations are shown to be integrated when the trajectory of the point of contact is taken in a form of the natural…
In intuitionistic mathematics, the Brouwer Continuity Theorem states that all total real functions are (uniformly) continuous on the unit interval. We study this theorem and related principles from the point of view of Reverse Mathematics…
Let $\mathbf D=\bar{\mathbb D}$ be the closed unit disk in $\mathbb C$ and $\mathbf B_n=\bar{\mathbb B_n}$ the closed unit ball in $\mathbb C^n$. For a compact subset $K$ in $\mathbb C^n$ with nonempty interior, let $A(K)$ be the uniform…
This paper is concerned with the study of the rolling without slipping of a dynamically symmetric (in particular, homogeneous) heavy ball on a cone which rotates uniformly about its symmetry axis. The equations of motion of the system are…
In Newtonian theory, gravity inside a constant density static sphere is independent of spacetime dimension. Interestingly this general result is also carried over to Einsteinian as well as higher order Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (Lovelock)…
Using properties of the nonstandard physical world, a new fundamental derivation for all of the effects of the Special Theory of Relativity is given. This fundamental derivation removes all the contradictions and logical difficulties in the…
The present paper consists of two parts. In the first part, we prove a noncommutative analogue of the Riesz(-Markov-Kakutani) theorem on representation of functionals on an algebra of continuous functions by regular measures on the…
A one parameter set of noncommutative complex algebras is given. These may be considered deformation quantisation algebras. The commutative limit of these algebras correspond to the algebra of polynomial functions over a manifold or…
A new type of singularity theorem, based on spatial averages of physical quantities, is presented and discussed. Alternatively, the results inform us of when a spacetime can be singularity-free. This theorem provides a decisive…
We provide a simple proof for the union-closed sets conjecture, a long-standing open problem in set theory with immediate applications to graph theory, number theory, and order-theory.
We give a sketch of proof that any two (Lebesgue) measurable subsets of the unit sphere in $R^n$, for $n\ge 3$, with non-empty interiors and of the same measure are equidecomposable using pieces that are measurable.
We discuss Lomonosov's proof of the Pontryagin-Krein Theorem on invariant maximal non-positive subspaces, prove the refinement of one theorem from \cite{OShT} on common fixed points for a group of fractional-linear maps of operator ball and…
It is shown that early suggested derivation of the Boltzmann kinetic equation for dilute hard sphere gas from the time-reversible BBGKY equations is incorrect since in fact a priori substitutes for them definite irreversible equations.…
In this article we prove a reducibility result for the linear Schr\"odinger equation on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n}$ with quasi-periodic in time perturbation. Our result includes the case of unbounded perturbation that we assume to be of…
We consider non oscillatory functions and prove an everywhere Fourier Inversion Theorem for functions of very moderate decrease. The proofs rely on some ideas in nonstandard analysis.
