In this paper we introduce and study the strip planarity testing problem, which takes as an input a planar graph $G(V,E)$ and a function $\gamma:V \rightarrow \{1,2,\dots,k\}$ and asks whether a planar drawing of $G$ exists such that each…
Let $F$ be a finite set of monomials of the same degree $d\geq 2$ in a polynomial ring $R=k[x_1,...,x_n]$ over an arbitrary field $k$. We give some necessary and/or sufficient conditions for the birationality of the ring extension…
We classify spectrum-preserving endomorphisms of stable continuous-trace C^*-algebras up to inner automorphism by a surjective multiplicative invariant taking values in finite dimensional vector bundles over the spectrum. Specializing to…
We study equivariant affine embeddings of homogeneous spaces and their equivariant automorphisms. An example of a quasiaffine, but not affine, homogeneous space with finitely many equivariant automorphisms is presented. We prove the…
We raise the problem of realisability of rings as $\{X,X\}$ the ring of stable homotopy classes of self-maps of a space $X$. By focusing on $A_n^2$-polyhedra, we show that the direct sum of three endomorphism rings of abelian groups, one of…
An automorphism $F$ of the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field of characteristic zero is said to be {\it co-tame} if the subgroup of the automorphism group of the polynomial ring generated by $F$ and affine automorphisms contains…
We address a number of problems concerning the (im)possibility of either extending locally trivial subbundles of possibly singular Banach/$C^*$ bundles globally, embedding subhomogeneous bundles into homogeneous ones, or recovering locally…
We construct a simply connected $2-$complex $C$ embeddable in $3-$space such that for any embedding of $C$ in $\mathbb S^3$, any edge contraction forms a minor of the $2-$complex not embeddable in $3-$space. We achieve this by proving that…
In this paper we characterize real bivariate polynomials which have a small range over large Cartesian products. We show that for every constant-degree bivariate real polynomial $f$, either $|f(A,B)|=\Omega(n^{4/3})$, for every pair of…
In recent decades, linear affine threefolds have enabled researchers to solve some of the challenging problems on affine spaces. Koras-Russell threefolds, especially the Russell Cubic over $\mathbb{C}$ and Asanuma threefolds over a field of…
We construct an explicit de Rham isomorphism relating the cohomology rings of Banagl's de Rham and spatial approach to intersection space cohomology for stratified pseudomanifolds with isolated singularities. Intersection space…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $B \subseteq V(G)$. We introduce the \emph{bivariate $B$-restricted clique polynomial} \[ C_B(G;x,y) = \sum_{\substack{K \subseteq V \\ K \text{ is a clique}}} x^{|K|} y^{|K \cap B|}, \] where the…
Given a space X we study the topology of the space of embeddings of X into $\mathbb{R}^d$ through the combinatorics of triangulations of X. We give a simple combinatorial formula for upper bounds for the largest dimension of a sphere that…
We prove that the closure (for the Zariski topology) of the set of polynomial automorphisms of the complex affine plane whose polydegree is (cd-1,b,a) contains all triangular automorphisms of degree cd+a, where a,b >1 and c>0 are integers…
Let $Y=(f,g,h):\mathbb{R}^{3} \to \mathbb{R}^{3}$ be a $C^{2}$ map and let $\spec(Y)$ denote the set of eigenvalues of the derivative $DY_p$, when $p$ varies in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We begin proving that if, for some $\epsilon>0,$ $\spec(Y)\cap…
Let $A$ be an algebra over a commutative ring $k$. We prove that braidings on the category of $A$-bimodules are in bijective correspondence to canonical R-matrices, these are elements in $A\ot A\ot A$ satisfying certain axioms. We show that…
Let $X$ be a compact metric space which is locally absolutely retract and let $\phi: C(X)\to C(Y, M_n)$ be a unital homomorphism, where $Y$ is a compact metric space with ${\rm dim}Y\le 2.$ It is proved that there exists a sequence of $n$…
We consider the problem of deciding whether an input graph G admits a topological embedding into a two-dimensional simplicial complex C. This problem includes, among others, the embeddability problem of a graph on a surface and the…
This article concerns a question asked by M. V. Nori on homotopy of sections of Projective modules defined on the polynomial algebra over a smooth affine domain $R$. While this question has an affirmative answer, it is known that the…
Let $K$ be a closed polydisc or ball in $\C^n$, and let $Y$ be a quasi projective algebraic manifold which is Zariski locally equivalent to $\C^p$, or a complement of an algebraic subvariety of codimension $\ge 2$ in such manifold. If $r$…
