A d-interval hypergraph has d disjoint copies of the unit interval as its vertex set, and each edge is the union of d subintervals, one on each copy. Extending a classical result of Gallai on the case d = 1, Tardos and Kaiser used…

NOTE: Unfortunately, most of the results mentioned here were already known under the name of "d-separated interval piercing". The result that T_d(m) exists was first proved by Gya\'rfa\'s and Lehel in 1970, see [5]. Later, the result was…

Let $m$ be a positive integer and $D_m(\mathcal {A})$ be the $m$-periodic derived category of a finitary hereditary abelian category $\mathcal {A}$. Applying the derived Hall numbers of the bounded derived category $D^b(\mathcal {A})$, we…

Let $m$ be an odd positive integer and $D_m(\mathcal {A})$ be the $m$-periodic derived category of a finitary hereditary abelian category $\mathcal {A}$. In this note, we prove that there is an embedding of algebras from the derived Hall…

We demonstrate that the topological Helly theorem and the algebraic Auslander-Buchsbaum may be viewed as different versions of the same phenomenon. Using this correspondence we show how the colorful Helly theorem of I.Barany and its…

In this work, we develop Extraction Theorems for classes of geometric objects with small extraction numbers. These classes include intervals, axis-parallel segments, axis-parallel rays, and octants. We investigate these classes of objects…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $n$ axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $\alpha\in (1-1/d,1]$ a real number. There exists a real number $\beta(\alpha )>0$ such that if there are $\alpha {n\choose 2}$ intersecting pairs in…

There are significant differences between Helmholtz and Hodge's decomposition theorems, but both share a common flavor. This paper is a first step to bring them together. We here produce Helmholtz theorems for differential 1-forms and…

In this paper we study Hardy spaces $\mathcal{H}^{p,q}(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $0<p,q<\infty$, modeled over amalgam spaces $(L^p,\ell^q)(\mathbb{R}^d)$. We characterize $\mathcal{H}^{p,q}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ by using first order classical Riesz…

A family $F$ of sets is said to satisfy the $(p,q)$-property if among any $p$ sets of $F$ some $q$ intersect. The celebrated $(p,q)$-theorem of Alon and Kleitman asserts that any family of compact convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that…

This paper presents a new variation of Tverberg's theorem. Given a discrete set $S$ of $R^d$, we study the number of points of $S$ needed to guarantee the existence of an $m$-partition of the points such that the intersection of the $m$…

Given a point set $S$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, a family of sets is $S$-intersecting if its members have a point in common in $S$. Recently, Edwards and Sober\'{o}n proved a fractional version of Halman's theorem for axis-parallel boxes, showing…

Let $K$ be a simplicial complex on vertex set $V$. $K$ is called $d$-Leray if the homology groups of any induced subcomplex of $K$ are trivial in dimensions $d$ and higher. $K$ is called $d$-collapsible if it can be reduced to the void…

In some recent papers the classical `splitting necklace theorem' is linked in an interesting way with a geometric `pattern avoidance problem'. We explore the topological constraints on the existence of a (relaxed) measurable coloring of R^d…

Many results in mass partitions are proved by lifting $\mathbb{R}^d$ to a higher-dimensional space and dividing the higher-dimensional space into pieces. We extend such methods to use lifting arguments to polyhedral surfaces. Among other…

Carath\'eodory's, Helly's and Radon's theorems are three basic results in discrete geometry. Their max-plus counterparts have been proved by various authors. In this paper, more advanced results in discrete geometry are shown to have also…

We prove a new fractional Helly theorem for families of sets obeying topological conditions. More precisely, we show that the nerve of a finite family of open sets (and of subcomplexes of cell complexes) in R^d is k-Leray where k depends on…

Let $X$ be a metric space and $BCl(X)$ the collection of nonempty bounded closed subsets of $X$. We show that Hausdorff distance $d_H$ belongs to a specific family of real-valued distances on $BCl(X)$, each of which can be expressed as the…

Interval temporal logics provide a general framework for temporal reasoning about interval structures over linearly ordered domains, where intervals are taken as the primitive ontological entities. In this paper, we identify all fragments…

We generalize the ham sandwich theorem for the case of well separated measures. Given convex bodies $K_1,...,K_d$ in $\mathbb{R_d}$ and numbers $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_d \in [0, 1]$, we give a sufficient condition for existence and uniqueness…
