We investigate the 2-center problem for arbitrary strictly convex, centrally symmetric curves instead of usual circles. In other words, we extend the 2-center problem (from the Euclidean plane) to strictly convex normed planes, since any…
We give rigorous foundations for parametrized homotopy theory in this monograph. After preliminaries on point-set topology, base change functors, and proper actions of non-compact Lie groups, we develop the homotopy theory of equivariant…
In recent years there has been a lot of interest in the study of isometry invariant Poisson processes of $k$-flats in $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$, for $0\le k\le d-1$. A phenomenon that has no counterpart in euclidean…
It is proved that a basic superembedding equation for the 2-dimensional worldsheet superspace $\S^{(2|8+8)}$ embedded into D=10 type IIB superspace $M^{(10|16+16)}$ provides a universal, S-duality invariant description of a fundamental…
Following ideas of Nori, Biswas, ..., we show that given an integer r>0, a noetherian scheme X, and an effective Cartier divisor D on it, the parabolic vector bundles on (X,D) with weights multiples of 1/r (in the sense of…
A plank is the part of space between two parallel planes. The following open problem, posed 45 years ago, can be viwed as the converse of Tarski's plank problem (Bang's theorem): Is it true that if the total width of a collection of planks…
The notion of a translation map in a quantum principal bundle is introduced. A translation map is then used to prove that the cross sections of a quantum fibre bundle $E(B,V,A)$ associated to a quantum principal bundle $P(B,A)$ are in…
We present bijections for planar maps with boundaries. In particular, we obtain bijections for triangulations and quadrangulations of the sphere with boundaries of prescribed lengths. For triangulations we recover the beautiful factorized…
We determine the Picard number and the Ulrich complexity of general bidouble covers of the projective plane, providing the first systematic study of Ulrich bundles on non-cyclic abelian covers. For a bidouble plane branched along three…
We "solve" the Freed-Witten anomaly equation, i.e., we find a geometrical classification of the B-field and A-field configurations in the presence of D-branes that are anomaly-free. The mathematical setting being provided by the geometry of…
In this note we give a complete description of all the hyperplane section of the projective bundle associated to the tangent bundle of $\mathbb{P}^2$ under its natural embedding in $\mathbb{P}^7.$ As an application one obtains a description…
This paper provides an overview of selected results and open problems in the theory of hyperplane arrangements, with an emphasis on computations and examples. We give an introduction to many of the essential tools used in the area, such as…
The Pak-Stanley labeling is a bijection between the regions of the $m$-Shi arrangement and the $m$-parking functions. Mazin generalized this labeling to every deformation of the braid arrangement and proved that this labeling is always…
In the paper, we introduce the terminology equivariant pointwise clutching map. By using this, we give details on how to glue an equivariant vector bundle over a finite set so as to obtain a new Lie group representation such that the…
Working on doubling metric spaces, we construct generalised dyadic cubes adapting ultrametric structure. If the space is complete, then the existence of such cubes and the mass distribution principle lead into a simple proof for the…
This paper proposes a Hilbert space embedding for Dirichlet Process mixture models via a stick-breaking construction of Sethuraman. Although Bayesian nonparametrics offers a powerful approach to construct a prior that avoids the need to…
In $d$-dimensional space (over any field), given a set of lines, a joint is a point passed through by $d$ lines not all lying in some hyperplane. The joints problem asks to determine the maximum number of joints formed by $L$ lines, and it…
We study the problem of transforming bipartite graphs into bicluster graphs. Abu-Khzam, Isenmann, and Merchad [IWOCA '25] introduced two variants of this problem. In both problems, the goal is to transform a bipartite graph into a bicluster…
It has long been known that $d$-dimensional Euclidean point sets admit $(1+\epsilon)$-stretch spanners with lightness $W_E = \epsilon^{-O(d)}$, that is total edge weight at most $W_E$ times the weight of the minimum spaning tree of the set…
We introduce a randomized iterative fragmentation procedure for finite metric spaces, which is guaranteed to result in a polynomially large subset that is $D$-equivalent to an ultrametric, where $D\in (2,\infty)$ is a prescribed target…
