This paper deals with properties of filtrations on vector spaces indexed by partially ordered finitely generated abelian groups, which we call multifiltrations. We discuss the usual properties of filtrations, like exhaustivity and…

The group $C(\Om,\Z)/\E$ is determined for tilings which are invariant under a locally invertible primitive \sst\ which forces its \saum. In case the tiling may be obtained by the generalized dual method from a regular grid this group…

We establish the existence of a regular functional $M$-position, in the sense of Pisier, for geometric log-concave functions. This provides a functional analogue of Pisier's regular $M$-positions for convex bodies and yields uniform control…

For nonempty subsets $X$ and $Y$ of a group $G$, we say that $(X,Y)$ is a tiling of $G$ if every element of $G$ can be uniquely expressed as $xy$ for some $x\in X$ and $y\in Y$. In 1966, Rothaus and Thompson studied whether the symmetric…

L$^\natural$ (natural)-convex functions encompass a large class of nonlinear functions over general integer domains and arise in a wide range of real-world applications. We explore the minimization of L$^\natural$-convex functions, of…

Let $d_1,...,d_r$ be positive integers and let $I = (F_1,...,F_r)$ be an ideal generated by general forms of degrees $d_1,...,d_r$, respectively, in a polynomial ring $R$ with $n$ variables. When all the degrees are the same we give a…

For all natural numbers a,b and d > 0, we consider the function f_{a,b,d} which associates n/d to any integer n when it is a multiple of d, and an + b otherwise; in particular f_{3,1,2} is the Collatz function. Coding in base a > 1 with b <…

We develop a method to study sufficient conditions for perfect mixed tilings. Our framework allows the embedding of bounded degree graphs $H$ with components of sublinear order. As a corollary, we recover and extend the work of K\"uhn and…

Functions with uniform level sets can represent orders, preference relations or other binary relations and thus turn out to be a tool for scalarization that can be used, e.g., in multicriteria optimization, decision theory, mathematical…

We define a convolution operation on the set of polyominoes and use it to obtain a criterion for a given polyomino not to tile the plane (rotations and translations allowed). We apply the criterion to several families of polyominoes, and…

We give sufficient geometric conditions, not involving capacities, for a compact null set to be removable for the Sobolev functions on weighted $\mathbb R^n$, defined as the closure of smooth functions in the weighted Sobolev norm. Our…

We prove that Tietze Extension does not always exist in constructive mathematics if closed sets on which the function we are extending are defined as sequentially closed sets. Firstly, we take a discrete metric space as our topological…

There are two objectives to this work: to classify all tame integer tilings and to classify all tame integer hypertilings. Motivation for the first objective comes from Conway and Coxeter's modelling of positive integer friezes using…

Let $m$ be an even positive integer. A Boolean bent function $f$ on $\GF{m-1} \times \GF {}$ is called a \emph{cyclic bent function} if for any $a\neq b\in \GF {m-1}$ and $\epsilon \in \GF{}$, $f(ax_1,x_2)+f(bx_1,x_2+\epsilon)$ is always…

A basic assumption of tiling theory is that adjacent tiles can meet in only a finite number of ways, up to rigid motions. However, there are many interesting tiling spaces that do not have this property. They have "fault lines", along which…

In this article, we characterize completely alternating functions on an abelian semigroup $S$ in terms of completely monotone functions on the product semigroup $S\times \mathbb Z_+$. We also discuss completely alternating sequences induced…

We introduce a new family of nonperiodic tilings, based on a substitution rule that generalizes the pinwheel tiling of Conway and Radin. In each tiling the tiles are similar to a single triangular prototile. In a countable number of cases,…

We study the weighted partition function for lozenge tilings, with weights given by multivariate rational functions originally defined by Morales, Pak and Panova (2019) in the context of the factorial Schur functions. We prove that this…

The local structure of a tiling is described in terms of a multiplicative structure on its pattern classes. The groupoid associated to the tiling is derived from this structure and its integer group of coinvariants is defined. This group…

Is there a fixed dimension $n$ such that translational tiling of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ with a monotile is undecidable? Several recent results support a positive answer to this question. Greenfeld and Tao disprove the periodic tiling conjecture by…
