For an arrangement of $n$ pseudolines in the real projective plane let us denote by $t_i$ the number of vertices incident to $i$ lines. We obtain a linear on $t_i$ inequality similar to the Hirzebruch one, but with an elementary proof. We…

In this article we prove that the elliptic, hyperbolic and nilpotent (or unipotent) additive (or multiplicative) Jordan components of an endomorphism $X$ (or an isomorphism $g$) of a finite dimensional vector space are given by polynomials…

The Brattelli diagram associated with a given bicolored Dynkin-Coxeter graph of type $A_n$ determines planar fractal sets obtained by infinite dissections of a given triangle. All triangles appearing in the dissection process have angles…

We show that for each pair of positive integers g and n, there are infinitely many tunnel number one knots, whose exteriors contain an essential meridional surface of genus g, and with 2n boundary components. We also show that for each…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic not equal to $2$. If $n\ge 2$, we show that an arbitrary map $\phi : M_n(\mathbb{F}) \to M_n(\mathbb{F})$ is Jordan multiplicative,…

We show that in every dimension $N\geq3$ there are many bounded domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$, having only finite symmetries, in which the Bahri-Coron problem \[-\Delta u=|u| ^{4/(N-2)}u\text{\in}\Omega,\text{\ \}u=0\text{\…

B\'ar\'any, Kalai, and Meshulam recently obtained a topological Tverberg-type theorem for matroids, which guarantees multiple coincidences for continuous maps from a matroid complex to d-dimensional Euclidean space, if the matroid has…

The sequence of middle divisors is shown to be unbounded. For a given number $n$, $a_{n,0}$ is the number of divisors of $n$ in between $\sqrt{n/2}$ and $\sqrt{2n}$. We explicitly construct a sequence of numbers $n(i)$ and a list of…

We study the contact structure of totally separable} packings of translates of a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, that is, packings where any two touching bodies have a separating hyperplane that does not intersect the interior of any…

We consider discretization of the 'geometric cover problem' in the plane: Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and a compact planar object $T_0$, find a minimum cardinality collection of planar translates of $T_0$ such that the union…

In this article we answer a question raised by N. Feldman in \cite{Feldman} concerning the dynamics of tuples of operators on $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, we prove that for every positive integer $n\geq 2$ there exist $n$ tuples $(A_1,…

Let $\mathfrak{M}(\mathbb{D}, m, n, P)$ be the ring of all $m \times n$ matrices over a division ring $\mathbb{D}$, with the product given by $A \bullet B=A P B$, where $P$ is a fixed $n \times m$ matrix over $\mathbb{D}$. When $2\leq m, n…

We investigate relations between the properties of an algebra and its varieties of finite-dimensional module structures, on the example of the Jordan plane $R=k<x,y>/ (xy-yx-y^2)$. Complete description of irreducible components of the…

We introduce a sequence P_d of monic reciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients having the central coefficients fixed as well as the peripheral coefficients. We prove that the ratio between number of nonunimodular roots of P_d and its…

We prove that if an $n$-dimensional space $X$ satisfies certain topological conditions then any triangulation of $X$ as well as any its representation as a simplicial set with contractible faces has at least $2^n$ faces of dimension $n$.…

Let ${\mathcal{T}}$ be a triangular algebra. We say that $D=\{D_{n}: n\in N\}\subseteq L({\mathcal{T}})$ is a Jordan higher derivable mapping at $G$ if $D_{n}(ST+TS)=\sum_{i+j=n}(D_{i}(S)D_{j}(T)+D_{i}(T)D_{j}(S))$ for any $S,T\in…

A classical result of Dowker (Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 50: 120-122, 1944) states that for any plane convex body $K$ in the Euclidean plane, the areas of the maximum (resp. minimum) area convex $n$-gons inscribed (resp. circumscribed) in $K$…

We obtain the generic real Jordan canonical forms for $n\times n$ matrices with real entries. More precisely, we prove that the set of $n\times n$ real matrices is the union of the closures of $\lfloor n/2\rfloor+1$ sets, which are called…
