We investigate geometric properties of homogeneous parabolic geometries with generalized symmetries. We show that they can be reduced to a simpler geometric structures and interpret them explicitly. For specific types of parabolic…

We shall define a general notion of dimension, and study groups and rings whose interpretable sets carry such a dimensio. In particular, we deduce chain conditions for groups, definability results for fields and domains, and show that…

We start an analysis of geometric properties of a structure relative to a reduct. In particular, we look at definability of groups and fields in this context. In the relatively one-based case, every definable group is isogenous to a…

The lists of facets -- $298,592$ in $86$ orbits -- and of extreme rays -- $242,695,427$ in $9,003$ orbits -- of the hypermetric cone $HYP_8$ are computed. The first generalization considered is the hypermetric polytope $HYPP_n$ for which we…

We obtain explicit formulas for the number of non-isomorphic elliptic curves with a given group structure (considered as an abstract abelian group). Moreover, we give explicit formulas for the number of distinct group structures of all…

Every polyhedron can be decomposed into a Minkowski sum (or vector sum) of a bounded polyhedron and a polyhedral cone. This paper establishes similar statements for some classes of discrete sets in discrete convex analysis, such as…

Equifacetal simplices, all of whose codimension one faces are congruent to one another, are studied. It is shown that the isometry group of such a simplex acts transitively on its set of vertices, and, as an application, equifacetal…

We provide a unified treatment of several results concerning full groups of ample groupoids and paradoxical decompositions attached to them. This includes a criterion for the full group of an ample groupoid being amenable as well as…

A tutorial introduction is given to general Hopf algebras and to general compact quantum groups. In the definition and further treatment of compact quantum groups C*-algebras are avoided. Contact with Woronowicz's compact matrix quantum…

We classify general square systems of polynomial equations solvable in radicals. Expectedly, they are almost in a 1-to-1 correspondence with tuples of lattice polytopes of mixed volume not exceeding 4. The proof is based on the computation…

In this paper we study polycubes: orthogonal polyhedra with axis-aligned quadrilateral faces. We present a complete characterization of polycubes of any genus based on their dual structure: a collection of oriented loops which run in each…

We establish a lower bound for the representation dimension of all the classical Hecke algebras of types A, B and D. For all the type A algebras, and most of the algebras of types B and D, we also establish upper bounds. Moreover, we…

For a given family of similar shapes, what we call a "unit shape" strongly analogizes the role of the unit circle within the family of all circles. Within many such families of similar shapes, we present what we believe is naturally and…

The mix of two maniplexes is the minimal maniplex that covers both. This construction has many important applications, such as finding the smallest regular cover of a maniplex. If one of the maniplexes is an abstract polytope, a natural…

We define basic notions in the category of conic representations of a topological group and prove elementary facts about them. We show that a conic representation determines an ordinary dynamical system of the group together with a…

Can one build an arbitrary polytope from any polytope inside by iteratively stacking pyramids onto facets, without losing the convexity throughout the process? We prove that this is indeed possible for (i) 3-polytopes, (ii) 4-polytopes…

A finite-dimensional unital and associative algebra over $\mathbb{R}$, or what we shall call simply "an algebra" in this paper for short, generalities the construction by which we derive the complex numbers by "adjoining an element $i$" to…

A polytrope is a tropical polytope which at the same time is convex in the ordinary sense. A $d$-dimensional polytrope turns out to be a tropical simplex, that is, it is the tropical convex hull of $d+1$ points. This statement is equivalent…

Quadric bundles on a compact Riemann surface X generalise orthogonal bundles and arise naturally in the study of the moduli space of representations of $\pi_1(X)$ in Sp(2n,R). We prove some basic results on the moduli spaces of quadric…

We determine the combinatorial types of all the 3-dimensional simple convex polytopes in R^3 that can be realized as mean curvature convex (or totally geodesic) Riemannian polyhedra with non-obtuse dihedral angles in Riemannian 3-manifolds…
