We prove that any definable family of subsets of a definable infinite set $A$ in an o-minimal structure has cardinality at most $|A|$. We derive some consequences in terms of counting definable types and existence of definable topological…

We study test sets: subfamilies of sequences converging to a point P that still suffice to detect every discontinuity of real-valued functions at P. Ordered by inclusion, these test sets form a poset. Under natural hypotheses at P, we prove…

We give constructive proofs for the existence of uniquely hamiltonian graphs for various sets of degrees. We give constructions for all sets with minimum 2 (a trivial case added for completeness), all sets with minimum 3 that contain an…

We prove the ideal-adic semi-continuity of minimal log discrepancies on surfaces.

We prove that the Gauss curvature and the curvature of the normal connection of any minimal surface in the four dimensional Euclidean space satisfy an inequality, which generates two classes of minimal surfaces: minimal surfaces of general…

We prove that a class of graphs with an excluded minor and with the maximum degree sublinear in the number of edges is maximally modular, that is, modularity tends to 1 as the number of edges tends to infinity.

We consider the classical problem of determining the largest possible cardinality of a minimal presentation of a numerical monoid with given embedding dimension and multiplicity. Very few values of this cardinality are known. In addressing…

We give upper and lower bounds on the number of graphs of fixed degree which have a positive density of triangles. In particular, we show that there are very few such graphs, when compared to the number of graphs without this restriction.…

We introduce in this article a new method to estimate the minimum distance of codes from algebraic surfaces. This lower bound is generic, i.e. can be applied to any surface, and turns out to be ``liftable'' under finite morphisms, paving…

We obtain a complete classification of minimal simple unitary $W$-algebras.

We analyse an extremal question on the degrees of the link graphs of a finite regular graph, that is, the subgraphs induced by non-trivial spheres. We show that if $G$ is $d$-regular and connected but not complete then some link graph of…

An embedded cubic graph consisting of segments of geodesics such that the angles at any vertex are equal to $2\pi/3$ is a closed local minimal net. This net is regular if all segments of geodesics are equal. The problem of classification of…

A connected graph $G$ with at least two vertices is matching covered if each of its edges lies in a perfect matching. A matching covered graph is minimal if the removal of any edge results in a graph that is no longer matching covered. An…

We calculate the minimal degree for a class of finite complex reflection groups $G(p,p,q)$, for $p$ and $q$ primes and establish relationships between minimal degrees when these groups are taken in a direct product.

Given closed possibly nonorientable surfaces $M,N$, we prove that if a map $f:M\to N$ has degree $d>0$, then $\chi(M)\le d\cdot\chi(N)$. We give all necessary comments on the definition and properties of geometric degree, which can be…

Given a finitely presented Graded Commutative Differential Algebra (GCDA), we present a method to compute its minimal model, together with a map that is a quasi-isomorphism up to a given degree. The method works by adding generators one by…

A minimal family of curves on an embedded surface is defined as a 1-dimensional family of rational curves of minimal degree, which cover the surface. We classify such minimal families using constructive methods. This allows us to compute…

It is known that complete graphs and complete multipartite graphs have modularity zero. We show that the least number of edges we may delete from the complete graph $K_n$ to obtain a graph with non-zero modularity is $\lfloor n/2\rfloor…

We determine some of the derived equivalences of a class of gentle algebras called surface algebras. These algebras are constructed from an unpunctured Riemann surface of genus 0 with boundary and marked points by introducing cuts in…

In this article we present an elementary introduction to the theory of minimal surfaces in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb R^n$ for $n\ge 3$ by using only elementary calculus of functions of several variables at the level of a typical second-year…
