Recently there has been several works estimating the number of $n\times n$ matrices with elements from some finite sets $\mathcal X$ of arithmetic interest and of a given determinant. Typically such results are compared with the trivial…
We consider the concept of rank as a measure of the vertical levels and positions of elements of partially ordered sets (posets). We are motivated by the need for algorithmic measures on large, real-world hierarchically-structured data…
An achievement set of a series is a set of all its subsums. We study the properties of achievement sets of conditionally convergent series in finite dimensional spaces. The purpose of the paper is to answer some of the open problems…
We construct 2D and 3D finite element de Rham sequences of arbitrary polynomial degrees with extra smoothness. Some of these elements have nodal degrees of freedom (DoFs) and can be considered as generalisations of scalar Hermite and…
We consider spline functions over simplicial meshes in $\RR^n$. We assume that the spline pieces join together with some finite order of smoothness but the pieces themselves are infinitely smooth. Such splines can have extra orders of…
The rank of a ring $R$ is the supremum of minimal cardinalities of generating sets of $I$ as $I$ ranges over ideals of $R$. Matson showed that every positive integer occurs as the rank of some ring $R$. Motivated by the result of Cohen and…
Links between uniform Aztec diamonds and random matrices are numerous in the literature. In particular \cite{johansson2006eigenvalues,Forrester} established that, under correct rescaling, the probability density function of a certain…
This paper presents a theorem which solves the problem of reduction of the determinant order by means of a transformation of it, into other determinant whose each element are a determinant of second order. This implies that, if the process…
Erd\"os conjectured the existence of an infinite Sidon sequence of positive integers which is also an asymptotic basis of order 3. We make progress towards this conjecture in several directions. First we prove the conjecture for all cyclic…
The superamalgamation property is a strong form of the amalgamation property which applies to ordered structures; it has found many applications in algebraic logic. We show that superamalgamation has some interest also from the pure…
Idempotents yield much insight in the structure of finite semigroups and semirings. In this article, we obtain some results on (multiplicatively) idempotents of the endomorphism semiring of a finite chain. We prove that the set of all…
Semi-regular sequences over $\mathbb{F}_2$ are sequences of homogeneous elements of the algebra $ B^{(n)}=\mathbb{F}_2[X_1,...,X_n]/(X_1^2,...,X_n^2) $, which have as few relations between them as possible. They were introduced in order to…
Algorithmic decidability is established for two order-theoretic properties of downward closed subsets defined by finitely many obstructions in two infinite posets. The properties under consideration are: (a) being atomic, i.e. not being…
We introduce the finitistic extension degree of a ring and investigate rings for which it is finite. The Auslander-Reiten Conjecture is proved for rings of finite finitistic extension degree and these rings are also shown to have finite…
In this note we introduce and characterize a class of finite groups for which the element orders satisfy a certain inequality. This is contained in some well-known classes of finite groups.
Continuous reducibilities are a proven tool in computable analysis, and have applications in other fields such as constructive mathematics or reverse mathematics. We study the order-theoretic properties of several variants of the two most…
We study the semigroup identities satisfied by finite rank plactic monoids. We find a new set of semigroup identities of the plactic monoid of rank $n$ for $n \geq 4$, which are shorter than those previously known when $n \geq 6$. Using…
Restriction is a natural quasi-order on $d$-way tensors. We establish a remarkable aspect of this quasi-order in the case of tensors over a fixed finite field -- namely, that it is a well-quasi-order: it admits no infinite antichains and no…
We introduce a class of group endomorphisms -- those of finite combinatorial rank -- exhibiting slow orbit growth. An associated Dirichlet series is used to obtain an exact orbit counting formula, and in the connected case this series is…
In this article, we construct an arithmetic hyperbolic $6-$orbifold $\mathcal{O}$ such that, any square-rootable Salem number of degree at most $4$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ is realized as the exponential of the length of a closed geodesic in…
