Tiling planar regions with dominoes is a classical problem in which the decision and counting problems are polynomial. We prove a variety of hardness results (both NP- and #P-completeness) for different generalizations of dominoes in three…

The 1-2-3 conjecture has been solved positively in 2024 for finite graphs and by extension for infinite graphs which are locally finite. The solution is non-constructive, and finding explicit solutions for large (or infinite) graphs is very…

The solvability in Sobolev spaces is proved for divergence form complex-valued higher order parabolic systems in the whole space, on a half space, and on a Reifenberg flat domain. The leading coefficients are assumed to be merely measurable…

The Diophantine problem for a monoid $M$ is the decision problem to decide whether any given system of equations has a solution in $M$. In this note, we give a simple example of a context-free, word-hyperbolic, finitely presented, special…

We study the existence of nontrivial unbounded domains $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ such that the overdetermined problem $$ -\Delta u = 1 \quad \text{in $\Omega$}, \qquad u=0, \quad \partial_\nu u=\textrm{const} \qquad \text{on $\partial…

We study the existence of periodic solutions in a class of planar Filippov systems obtained from non-autonomous periodic perturbations of reversible piecewise smooth differential systems. It is assumed that the unperturbed system presents a…

We construct an example of a group $G = \mathbb{Z}^2 \times G_0$ for a finite abelian group $G_0$, a subset $E$ of $G_0$, and two finite subsets $F_1,F_2$ of $G$, such that it is undecidable in ZFC whether $\mathbb{Z}^2\times E$ can be…

We consider the characteristic problem for the ultrahyperbolic equation in the Euclidean space. The value of a solution is prescribed on the characteristic hyperplane. A well-posed set-up of the problem is discussed. We obtain a certain…

R. Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise incongruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Recently a negative answer was given by Kupavskii, Pach and Tardos. Still one may ask for weaker versions of the…

Aperiodic tiling is a well-know area of research. First developed by mathematicians for the mathematical challenge they represent and the beauty of their resulting patterns, they became a growing field of interest when their practical use…

We investigate the problem of deciding whether a system of linear equations, together with divisibility conditions on the variables, has a solution over holomorphy subrings of global fields. We obtain decidability results when we allow…

The periodic tiling conjecture asserts that any finite subset of a lattice $\mathbb{Z^d}$ which tiles that lattice by translations, in fact tiles periodically. We announce here a disproof of this conjecture for sufficiently large $d$, which…

In this paper we consider the hyperelastic rod equation on the Sobolev spaces $H^s(\R)$, $s > 3/2$. Using a geometric approach we show that for any $T > 0$ the corresponding solution map, $u(0) \mapsto u(T)$, is nowhere locally uniformly…
