We review remarkable results in several mathematical scenarios, including graph theory, division algebras, cross product formalism and matroid theory. Specifically, we mention the following subjects: (1) the Euler relation in graph theory,…

Let $\mathscr{F}$ be a family of graphs. A graph $G$ is $\mathscr{F}$-free if $G$ does not contain any $F\in \mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. The general Tur\'an number, denoted by $ex(n, H,\mathscr{F})$, is the maximum number of copies of $H$…

According to the O'Nan--Scott Theorem, a finite primitive permutation group either preserves a structure of one of three types (affine space, Cartesian lattice, or diagonal semilattice), or is almost simple. However, diagonal groups are a…

We show that every hypersurface in $\R^s\times \R^s$ contains a large grid, i.e., the set of the form $S\times T$, with $S,T\subset \R^s$. We use this to deduce that the known constructions of extremal $K_{2,2}$-free and $K_{3,3}$-free…

For a family of graphs $\F$, a graph is called $\F$-free if it does not contain any member of $\F$ as a subgraph. The generalized Tur\'an number $\ex(n,K_r,\F)$ is the maximum number of $K_r$ in an $n$-vertex $\F$-free graph and…

We prove two isomorphism-invariance theorems for groupoids associated with ultragraphs. These theorems characterize ultragraphs for which the topological full group of an associated groupoid is an isomorphism invariant. These results extend…

We prove a general duality theorem for tangle-like dense objects in combinatorial structures such as graphs and matroids. This paper continues, and assumes familiarity with, the theory developed in [6]

Let $n$ be a positive integer, $q$ be a prime power, and $V$ be a vector space of dimension $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $G := V \rtimes G_0$, where $G_0$ is an irreducible subgroup of ${\rm GL}(V)$ which is maximal by inclusion with…

The geometric dimension for proper actions $\underline{\mathrm{gd}}(G)$ of a group $G$ is the minimal dimension of a classifying space for proper actions $\underline{E}G$. We construct for every integer $r\geq 1$, an example of a virtually…

Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $\mathrm{SO}_0(n, 1)$. We prove that if the associated locally symmetric space contains infinitely many maximal totally geodesic subspaces of dimension at least $2$, then $\Gamma$ is arithmetic. This answers a…

The mapping class group $\Gamma$ of the complement of a Cantor set in the plane arises naturally in dynamics. We show that the ray graph, which is the analog of the complex of curves for this surface of infinite type, has infinite diameter…

A (non-commutative) Ulam quasimorphism is a map $q$ from a group $\Gamma$ to a topological group $G$ such that $q(xy)q(y)^{-1}q(x)^{-1}$ belongs to a fixed compact subset of $G$. Generalizing the construction of Barge and Ghys, we build a…

There are theories of coverings of $C^*$-algebras which can be included into a following list: coverings of commutative $C^*$-algebras, coverings of $C^*$-algebras of groupoids and foliations, coverings of noncommutative tori, the double…

The paper contains results that characterize the Donkin-Koppinen filtration of the coordinate superalgebra $K[G]$ of the general linear supergroup $G=GL(m|n)$ by its subsupermodules $C_{\Gamma}=O_{\Gamma}(K[G])$. Here, the supermodule…

Let $G_n=\mathbb{Z}_n\times \mathbb{Z}_n$ for $n\geq 4$ and $S=\{(i,0),(0,i),(i,i): 1\leq i \leq n-1\}\subset G_n$. Define $\Gamma(n)$ to be the Cayley graph of $G_n$ with respect to the connecting set $S$. It is known that $\Gamma(n)$ is a…

We study in general spacetime dimension the symmetry of the theory obtained by gauging a non-anomalous finite normal Abelian subgroup $A$ of a $\Gamma$-symmetric theory. Depending on how anomalous $\Gamma$ is, we find that the symmetry of…

A general framework is described which associates geometrical structures to any set of $D$ finite-dimensional hermitian matrices $X^a, \ a=1,...,D$. This framework generalizes and systematizes the well-known examples of fuzzy spaces, and…

We consider a finite-dimensional vector space $W\subset K^E$ over an arbitrary field $K$ and an arbitrary set $E$. We show that the set $C(W)\subset 2^E$ consisting of the minimal supports of $W$ are the circuits of a matroid on $E$. In…

Let $\Gamma$ be a crystallographic group of dimension $n,$ i.e. a discrete, cocompact subgroup of $\operatorname{Isom}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ = $O(n)\ltimes\mathbb{R}^n.$ For any $n\geq 2,$ we construct a crystallographic group with a trivial…

The commuting graph of a group G, denoted by Gamma(G), is the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the non-central elements of G and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they commute. Let Z_m be the commutative ring of…
