A sublattice of the three-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb Z^3$ is called cubic sublattice if there exists a basis of the sublattice whose elements are pairwise orthogonal and of equal lengths. We show that for an integer vector…
We investigate models of (1+d)-D Lorentzian semi-random lattices with one random (space-like) direction and d regular (time-like) ones. We prove a general inversion formula expressing the partition function of these models as the inverse of…
Reay's relaxed Tverberg conjecture and Conway's thrackle conjecture are open problems about the geometry of pairwise intersections. Reay asked for the minimum number of points in Euclidean d-space that guarantees any such point set admits a…
Let $\# K$ be a number of integer lattice points contained in a set $K$. In this paper we prove that for each $d\in {\mathbb N}$ there exists a constant $C(d)$ depending on $d$ only, such that for any origin-symmetric convex body $K \subset…
We study the fractional Hardy inequality on the integer lattice. We prove null-criticality of the Hardy weight and hence optimality of the constant. More specifically, we present a family of Hardy weights with respect to a parameter and…
The ball hypergraph of a graph $G$ is the family of balls of all possible centers and radii in $G$. It has Helly number at most $k$ if every subfamily of $k$-wise intersecting balls has a nonempty common intersection. A graph is $k$-Helly…
We prove that if any $\lfloor3d/2 \rfloor$ or fewer elements of a finite family of linear operators $\mathbb K^d\to \mathbb K^d$ ($\mathbb K$ is an arbitrary field) have a common eigenvector then all operators in the family have a common…
We show that when we formulate the lattice Boltzmann equation with a small time step $\Delta$t and an associated space scale $\Delta$x, a Taylor expansion joined with the so-called equivalent equation methodology leads to establish…
The quaternionic numerical range of matrices over the ring of quaternions is not necessarily convex. We prove Toeplitz-Hausdorff like theorem, that is, for any given quaternionic matrix every section of its quaternionic numerical range is…
We prove that the set of directions of lines intersecting three disjoint balls in $R^3$ in a given order is a strictly convex subset of $S^2$. We then generalize this result to $n$ disjoint balls in $R^d$. As a consequence, we can improve…
We define the Helly number of a polyomino $P$ as the smallest number $h$ such that the $h$-Helly property holds for the family of symmetric and translated copies of $P$ on the integer grid. We prove the following: (i) the only polyominoes…
Let $N$ be a lattice of rank $n$ and let $M = N^{\vee}$ be its dual lattice. In this note we show that given two compact, bounded, full-dimensional convex sets $K_1 \subseteq K_2 \subseteq M_{\R} \coloneqq M \otimes_{\Z} \R$, there is a…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
Holmsen, Kyn\v{c}l and Valculescu recently conjectured that if a finite set $X$ with $\ell n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is colored by $m$ different colors can be partitioned into $n$ subsets of $\ell$ points each, such that each subset…
Let $\Gamma$ be an irreducible lattice in $\PSL_2(\RR)^d$ ($d\in\NN$) and $z$ a point in the $d$-fold direct product of the upper half plane. We study the discrete set of componentwise distances ${\bf D}(\Gm,z)\subset \RR^d$ defined in (1).…
We embed multidimensional Farey fractions in large horospheres and explain under which conditions they become uniformly distributed in the ambient homogeneous space. This question has recently been investigated in the case of SL(d,Z) to…
In this work, the classical Borsuk conjecture is discussed, which states that any set of diameter 1 in the Euclidean space $ {\mathbb R}^d $ can be divided into $ d+1 $ parts of smaller diameter. During the last two decades, many…
Let K be a simplicial complex with vertex set V = {v_1,..., v_n}. The complex K is d-representable if there is a collection {C_1,...,C_n} of convex sets in R^d such that a subcollection {C_{i_1},...,C_{i_j}} has a nonempty intersection if…
The main results here are two Helly type theorems for the sum of (at most) unit vectors in a normed plane. Also, we give a new characterization of centrally symmetric convex sets in the plane.
We derive a sharp scaling law for deviations of edge-isoperimetric sets in the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$ from the limiting Wulff shape in arbitrary dimensions. As the number $n$ of elements diverges, we prove that the symmetric difference to…
