We give a universal kernel that renders all the regular languages linearly separable. We are not able to compute this kernel efficiently and conjecture that it is intractable, but we do have an efficient $\eps$-approximation.

Let $X$ be an irreducible projective variety and $f$ a morphism $X \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$. We give a new proof of the fact that the preimage of any linear variety of dimension $k\ge n+1-\dim f(X)$ is connected. We prove that the…

We provide a complete classification of all algebras of generalised dihedral type, which are natural generalizations of algebras which occurred in the study of blocks with dihedral defect groups. This gives a description by quivers and…

We demonstrate that the functorial properties of the symplectic field theory under strong cobordisms and surgery cobordisms can produce finite algebraic (planar) torsions from simple examples, which gives a unified treatment of most of the…

The geometry of graded principal bundles is discussed in the framework of graded manifold theory of Kostant-Berezin-Leites. In particular, we prove that a graded principal bundle is globally trivial if and only if it admits a global graded…

The equidistant set of two nonempty subsets $K$ and $L$ in the Euclidean plane is a set all of whose points have the same distance from $K$ and $L$. Since the classical conics can be also given in this way, equidistant sets can be…

In accordance with P. Vogel, a set of algebra structures in Chern-Simons theory can be made universal, independent of a particular family of simple Lie algebras. In particular, this means that various quantities in the adjoint…

We generalize the classical K\"onig's and B\"ottcher's Theorems in complex dynamics to certain quasiregular mappings in the plane. Our approach to these results is unified in the sense that it does not depend on the local injectivity, or…

Linear algebra's main concerns are sets of vectors, linear functions, subspaces, linear systems, matrices and concepts about those, such as whether the solution of linear system exists or is unique; a set of vectors is linearly independent…

We obtain universal models for several types of locally conformal symplectic manifolds via pullback or reduction. The relation with recent embedding results for locally conformal K\"ahler manifolds is discussed.

A general definition has been proposed recently of a linear connection and a metric in noncommutative geometry. It is shown that to within normalization there is a unique linear connection on the quantum plane and there is no metric.

In topology, the notions of the fundamental group and the universal cover are closely intertwined. By importing usual notions from topology into the algebraic and arithmetic setting, we construct a fundamental group family from a universal…

Fix a point in a finite-dimensional complex vector space and consider the sequence of iterates of this point under the composition of a unitary map with the orthogonal projection on the hyperplane orthogonal to the starting point. We prove…

The quantum Kepler-Coulomb system in 3 dimensions is well known to be 2nd order superintegrable, with a symmetry algebra that closes polynomially under commutators. This polynomial closure is also typical for 2nd order superintegrable…

We discuss the rigidity (or lack thereof) imposed by different notions of having an abundance of zero curvature planes on a complete Riemannian 3-manifold. We prove a rank rigidity theorem for complete 3-manifolds, showing that having…

We prove a complex polynomial plank covering theorem for not necessarily homogeneous polynomials. As the consequence of this result, we extend the complex plank theorem of Ball to the case of planks that are not necessarily centrally…

In this note we give a short and elementary proof of a more general version of Whitney's theorem that 3-connected planar graphs have a unique embedding in the plane. A consequence of the theorem is that cubic plane graphs cannot be embedded…

Motivated by the analogies between the projective and the almost quaternionic geometries, we study the generalized planar curves and mappings. We follow, recover, and extend the classical approach as developed by Mikes and Sinyukov. Then we…

Across various scientific and engineering domains, a growing interest in flexible and deployable structures is becoming evident. These structures facilitate seamless transitions between distinct states of shape and find broad applicability…

A result due to Burago and Zalgaller (1960, 1995) states that every orientable polyhedral surface, one that is obtained by gluing Euclidean polygons, has an isometric piecewise linear (PL) embedding into Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^3$. A…
