We show that very weak topological assumptions are enough to ensure the existence of a Helly-type theorem. More precisely, we show that for any non-negative integers $b$ and $d$ there exists an integer $h(b,d)$ such that the following…

We study the relation between two kinds of topological amplitudes of non-compact D-branes on conifold. In the A-model, D-branes are represented by fermion operators in the melting crystal picture and the amplitudes are given by the quantum…

We give a geometric interpretation for D-branes in the c=1 string theory. The geometric description is provided by complex curves which arise in both CFT and matrix model formulations. On the CFT side the complex curve appears from the…

We apply machine-learning to the study of dessins d'enfants. Specifically, we investigate a class of dessins which reside at the intersection of the investigations of modular subgroups, Seiberg-Witten curves and extremal elliptic K3…

In this paper we continue the study of perturbative renormalizations in an $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ supersymmetric model. Previously we analyzed one-loop graphs in the heterotically deformed CP$(N-1)$ models. Now we extend the analysis of the…

A set $D \subseteq V$ of a graph $G=(V, E)$ is a dominating set of $G$ if each vertex $v\in V\setminus D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D,$ whereas a set $D_2\subseteq V$ is a $2$-dominating (double dominating) set of $G$ if each…

We study harmonic Besov spaces $b^p_\alpha$ on the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$, where $0<p<1$ and $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$. We provide characterizations in terms of partial and radial derivatives and certain radial differential operators that…

Given a digraph $D$, we denote by $\vec{\alpha}(D)$ the maximum size of an acyclic set of $D$ (i.e. a set of vertices which induces a subdigraph with no directed cycles), and by $\vec\chi(D)$ the minimum number of acyclic sets into which…

We prove the following results. 1. If $X$ is a $\alpha$-favourable space, $Y$ is a regular space, in which every separable closed set is compact, and $f:X\times Y\to\mathbb R$ is a separately continuous everywhere jointly discontinuous…

Borodin and Kostochka conjectured that every graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta \ge 9$ satisfies $\chi \le \max\{\omega, \Delta-1\}$. We carry out an in-depth study of minimum counterexamples to the Borodin-Kostochka conjecture. Our main…

A fruitful contemporary paradigm in graph theory is that almost all graphs that do not contain a certain subgraph have common structural characteristics. The "almost" is crucial, without it there is no structure. In this paper we transfer…

We present a spectral sequence which efficiently computes Betti numbers of a closed semi-algebraic subset of RP^n defined by a system of quadratic inequalities and the image of the homology homomorphism induced by the inclusion of this…

Suppose $v(x,y):\mathbb C\rightarrow \mathbb R$ is an entire harmonic polynomial with no critical points in the right half plane. Let $z_1, z_2\in\mathbb C$ lie on a level set of $v$ , and assume ${\rm Re}(z_2)>{\rm Re}(z_1)\geq0$. We give…

We have calculated the first-order beta-functions for a sigma-model ( with dilaton) dualized with respect to an arbitrary Lie group that acts without isotropy. We find that non-abelian duality preserves conformal invariance for semi-simple…

Motivated by a question of Rubel, we consider the problem of characterizing which noncompact hypersurfaces in $\RR^n$ can be regular level sets of a harmonic function modulo a $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism, as well as certain generalizations to…

Let $M(d,\chi)$ with $(d,\chi)=1$ be the moduli space of semistable sheaves on $\mathbb{P}^2$ supported on curves of degree $d$ and with Euler characteristic $\chi$. The cohomology ring $H^*(M(d,\chi),\mathbb{Z})$ of $M(d,\chi)$ is…

We consider the special roles of the zero loci of the Weierstrass invariants $g_2(\tau(z))$, $g_3(\tau(z))$ in F-theory on an elliptic fibration over $P^1$ or a further fibration thereof. They are defined as the zero loci of the coefficient…

Let $P_1, P_2,\ldots, P_{d+1}$ be pairwise disjoint $n$-element point sets in general position in $d$-space. It is shown that there exist a point $O$ and suitable subsets $Q_i\subseteq P_i \; (i=1, 2, \ldots, d+1)$ such that $|Q_i|\geq…

In 1977, Borodin and Kostochka conjectured that every graph with maximum degree $\Delta \geq 9$ is $(\Delta-1)$-colourable, unless it contains a clique of size $\Delta$. In 1999, Reed confirmed the conjecture when $\Delta\geq 10^{14}$. We…

We study the negative beta transformations $T_{-\beta}:=-\beta x +\lfloor\beta x\rfloor+1$ for $x\in(0,1]$ and $\beta>1$. We present a complete characterization of pairs of dstinct non-integers with the same $T_{-\beta}$-invariant measure:…
