For any non-trivial convex and bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space, we show that outside of a $\sigma$-porous subset of the space of non-expansive mappings $C\to C$, all mappings have the maximal Lipschitz constant one witnessed locally at…

We show that a persistence module (for a totally ordered indexing set) consisting of finite-dimensional vector spaces is a direct sum of interval modules. The result extends to persistence modules with the descending chain condition on…

Let A be a subset of $\F_p^n$, the $n$-dimensional linear space over the prime field $\F_p$ of size at least $\de N$ $(N=p^n)$, and let $S_v=P^{-1}(v)$ be the level set of a homogeneous polynomial map $P:\F_p^n\to\F_p^R$ of degree $d$, and…

Persistent homology encodes the evolution of homological features of a multifiltered cell complex in the form of a multigraded module over a polynomial ring, called a multiparameter persistence module, and quantifies it through invariants…

In this paper, we study the extremal behaviour of deep holes in polyominoes. We determine the maximum number, $h_n$ of deep holes that an $n$-omino can enclose, ensuring that the boundary of each hole is disjoint from the boundaries of any…

We prove a sharp representation stability result for graph complexes with a distinguished vertex, and prove that the chains realizing this sharp bound pass to non-trivial families of graph homology classes. This result may be interpreted as…

We prove the uniqueness theorem for static higher dimensional charged black holes spacetime containing an asymptotically flat spacelike hypersurface with compact interior and with both degenerate and non-degenerate components of the event…

We propose a functorial framework for persistent homology based on finite topological spaces and their associated posets. Starting from a finite metric space, we associate a filtration of finite topologies whose structure maps are…

Stable matching is a classical combinatorial problem that has been the subject of intense theoretical and empirical study since its introduction in 1962 in a seminal paper by Gale and Shapley. In this paper, we provide a new upper bound on…

We consider black hole production at the LHC in a generic scenario with many extra dimensions where the Standard Model fields are confined to a brane. With $\sim 20$ dimensions the hierarchy problem is shown to be naturally solved without…

Let $p_{k}$ denote the $k$-th prime and $d(p_{k}) = p_{k} - p_{k - 1}$, the difference between consecutive primes. We denote by $N_{\epsilon}(x)$ the number of primes $\leq x$ which satisfy the inequality $d(p_{k}) \leq (\log p_{k})^{2 +…

We consider warped equilibrium configurations for stellar and gaseous disks in the Keplerian force-field of a supermassive black hole, assuming that the self-gravity of the disk provides the only acting torques. Modeling the disk as a…

We construct stable configurations of n overlapping discs of radius r in a unit square, with r = O(1/n). By a result of Diaconis, Lebeau, and Michel, this result is best possible, up to a constant factor. A consequence is that the…

Persistent cycles, especially the minimal ones, are useful geometric features functioning as augmentations for the intervals in a purely topological persistence diagram (also termed as barcode). In our earlier work, we showed that computing…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the continuity equation with a bounded nearly incompressible vector field $b\colon (0,T) \times \mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R^d$, $T>0$. This class of vector fields arises in the context of hyperbolic…

For integers $d \geq 2$ and $k \geq d+1$, a $k$-hole in a set $S$ of points in general position in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a $k$-tuple of points from $S$ in convex position such that the interior of their convex hull does not contain any point…

We prove existence of Helly numbers for crystals and for cut-and-project sets with convex windows. Also we show that for a two-dimensional crystal consisting of $k$ copies of a single lattice the Helly number does not exceed $k+6$.

The extension complexity $\mathsf{xc}(P)$ of a polytope $P$ is the minimum number of facets of a polytope that affinely projects to $P$. Let $G$ be a bipartite graph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and no isolated vertices. Let…

According to the Erd\H{o}s discrepancy conjecture, for any infinite $\pm 1$ sequence, there exists a homogeneous arithmetic progression of unbounded discrepancy. In other words, for any $\pm 1$ sequence $(x_1,x_2,...)$ and a discrepancy…

For a set of $n$ points $V \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ let $G(V, p)$ be the random graph on $V$ where each possible edge is present independently with probability $p$. We call a subset $U \subseteq V$ {\emph {reconstructible}} if every injection…
