In domains, categories, and toposes, the Sierpi\'nski cone construction glues onto a space a universal closed point lying below all the other points. Although this is a lax colimit, it also enjoys a well-known right-handed universal…
We prove analogues of the Szemer\'edi-Trotter theorem and other incidence theorems using $\delta$-tubes in place of straight lines, assuming that the $\delta$-tubes are well-spaced in a strong sense.
We study generalized minimizers in the soap film capillarity model introduced in [arXiv:1807.05200,arXiv:1907.00551]. Collapsed regions of generalized minimizers are shown to be smooth outside of dimensionally small singular sets, which are…
We prove that certain $L^p$-regularity functional inequality holds on \emph{generalized Sierpi\'nski carpets}. This gives an affirmative answer to an open question raised by Fabrice Baudoin. Our technique originates from an old idea of Alf…
We prove a limit curve theorem for incomplete metric spaces. Our main application is to Sormani and Vegas' null distance, where our results give strong control on the Lorentzian lengths of limit curves. We also show that regular…
We introduce an alternative way of constructing continuous flexible tubes and tubular structures based on a discrete, semi-discrete and smooth construction of surfaces known as T-hedra in the discrete case and profile-affine surfaces in the…
We give a subclass L of Non-linear Lalley-Gatzouras carpets and an open set U in L such that any carpet in U has a unique ergodic measure of full dimension. In particular, any Lalley-Gatzouras carpet which is close to a non-trivial general…
Superhydrophobic surfaces reduce drag by combining hydrophobicity and roughness to trap gas bubbles in a micro- and nanoscopic texture. Recent work has focused on specific cases, such as striped grooves or arrays of pillars, with limited…
In this article we study covering spaces of symplectic toric orbifolds and symplectic toric orbifold bundles. In particular, we show that all symplectic toric orbifold coverings are quotients of some symplectic toric orbifold by a finite…
Generalizing a result of T\"ornquist and Weiss, we study the connection between the existence of $\varSigma_2^1$ Sierpi\'{n}ski's coverings of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and a cardinal invariant of the upper semi-lattice of constructibility degrees…
Wiener process with instantaneous reflection in narrow tubes of width {\epsilon}<<1 around axis x is considered in this paper. The tube is assumed to be (asymptotically) non-smooth in the following sense. Let $V^{\epsilon}(x)$ be the volume…
We prove that all Sierpi\'nski spaces in ${\mathbb{S}}^n$, $n\geq 2$, are non-removable for (quasi)conformal maps, generalizing the result of the first named author arXiv:1809.05605. More precisely, we show that for any Sierpi\'nski space…
In [BNRR], it was shown that tiling of general regions with two rectangles is NP-complete, except for a few trivial special cases. In a different direction, R\'emila showed that for simply connected regions by two rectangles, the…
We show that the sum of the squares of the diameters of the complementary connected components of the CLE$_\kappa$ carpet/gasket is almost surely finite for $\kappa \in (8/3, 4) \cup (4, 8)$. This is a prerequisite for the application of a…
Given an extended real-valued submeasure $\nu$ defined on a field of subsets $\Sigma$ of a given set, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for which the pseudometric $d_\nu$ defined by $d_{\nu}(A,B):=\min\{1,\nu(A\bigtriangleup…
We continue our study of Sierpinski-type colourings. In contrast to the prequel paper, we focus here on colourings for ideals stratified by their completeness degree. In particular, improving upon Ulam's theorem and its extension by Hajnal,…
In this article we show that any finite cover of the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces of $g$ genus with $g\geq 2$ does not admit any complete finite-volume Hermitian metric of non-negative scalar curvature. Moreover, we also show…
We show that closed aspherical manifolds supporting an affine structure, whose holonomy map is injective and contains a pure translation, must have vanishing simplicial volume. This provides some further evidence for the veracity of the…
We prove that if we fill without gaps a bag with infinitely many potatoes, in such a way that they touch each other in few points, then the total surface area of the potatoes must be infinite. In this context potatoes are measurable subsets…
The Hurewicz property is a classical generalization of $\sigma$-compactness and Sierpi\'nski sets (whose existence follows from CH) are standard examples of non-$\sigma$-compact Hurewicz spaces. We show, solving a problem stated by Szewczak…
