We describe a new approach based on tropical optimization techniques to solve the problem of rating alternatives from pairwise comparison data. The problem is formulated to approximate, in the log-Chebyshev sense, pairwise comparison…

We address a version of the set-cover problem where we do not know the sets initially (and hence referred to as covert) but we can query an element to find out which sets contain this element as well as query a set to know the elements. We…

We propose some problems on the classification of toric manifolds from the viewpoint of topology and survey related results.

$\tau$-tilting theory can be thought of as a generalization of the classical tilting theory which allows mutations at any indecomposable summand of a support $\tau$-tilting pair. Indeed, for any algebra $\Lambda$ its tilting modules…

We aim to solve a topology optimization problem where the distribution of material in the design domain is represented by a density function. To obtain candidates for local minima, we want to solve the first order optimality system via…

Covering-based rough set theory is an extension to classical rough set. The main purpose of this paper is to study covering rough sets from a topological point of view. The relationship among upper approximations based on topological spaces…

We establish a comparison principle for viscosity subsolutions and supersolutions of a broad class of second-order quasilinear, maximally subelliptic PDEs on general manifolds. In fact, we prove the comparison theorem for a larger class of…

We treat the $\tau$-tilting finiteness of those minimal representation-infinite (min-rep-infinite) algebras which are non-distributive. Building upon the new results of Bongartz, we fully determine which algebras in this family are…

In this paper we study the problem of correlation clustering under fairness constraints. In the classic correlation clustering problem, we are given a complete graph where each edge is labeled positive or negative. The goal is to obtain a…

Various real-world problems consist of partitioning a set of locations into disjoint subsets, each subset spread in a way that it covers the whole set with a certain radius. Given a finite set S, a metric d, and a radius r, define a subset…

In these notes we solve a class of Riemann-Hilbert (inverse monodromy) problems with quasi-permutation monodromy groups which correspond to non-singular branched coverings of $\CP1$. The solution is given in terms of Szeg\"o kernel on the…

We extend the definition of topological pressure to locally compact Hausdorff spaces, and we demonstrate a "variational principle" comparing the topological and measure theoretic pressures. Given a continuous $\mathbb{Z}_+^N$-action $T$…
