(Abridged) We demonstrate that the tenet of hierarchical structure growth leads directly to a robust, falsifiable prediction for the correlation between stellar fraction (fstar) and total system mass (M500) of galaxy groups and clusters.…

We consider two types of convolutions ($\ast$ and $\star$) of functions on spaces of finite configurations (finite subsets of a phase space), and some their properties are studied. A connection of the $\ast$-convolution with the convolution…

For a finite group $G$, let $\H_{g,G,\xi}$ be the stack of admissible $G$-covers $C\to D$ of stable curves with ramification data $\xi$, $g(C)=g$ and $g(D)=g'$. There are source and target morphisms $\phi\colon \H_{g,G,\xi}\to \M_{g,r}$ and…

Let $A\subseteq B$ be a ring extension and $\mathcal{G}$ be a set of $A$-submodules of $B$. We introduce a class of closure operations on $\mathcal{G}$ (which we call \emph{multiplicative operations on $(A,B,\mathcal{G})$}) that generalizes…

Young stellar clusters harbour complex spatial structures emerging from the star formation process. Identifying stellar over-densities is a key step to constrain better how these structures are formed. The high accuracy of distances derived…

For a semifield extension $T /S$, an action of a finite group $G$ on $T$ is Galois if $(1)$ the $G$-invariant subsemifield of $T$ is $S$ and $(2)$ subgroups of $G$ whose invariant semifields coincide are equal. We show that for a finite…

In this paper we extensively investigate the class of conditionally positive definite operators, namely operators generating conditionally positive definite sequences. This class itself contains subnormal operators, $2$- and $3$-isometries…

This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…

We study the star/galaxy classification efficiency of 13 different decision tree algorithms applied to photometric objects in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release Seven (SDSS DR7). Each algorithm is defined by a set of parameters…

In this paper we establish a new characterisation of star-regular categories, using a property of internal reflexive graphs, which is suggested by a recent result due to O. Ngaha Ngaha and the first author. We show that this property is, in…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The structure theorem says that $R$ is a PIR (resp., UFR, general ZPI-ring, $\pi$-ring) if and only if $R$ is a finite direct product of PIDs (resp., UFDs, Dedekind domains, $\pi$-domains) and…

Popov classified crystallographic complex reflection groups by determining lattices they stabilize. These analogs of affine Weyl groups have infinite order and are generated by reflections about affine hyperplanes; most arise as the…

Some aspects of basic category theory are developed in a finitely complete category $\C$, endowed with two factorization systems which determine the same discrete objects and are linked by a simple reciprocal stability law. Resting on this…

Star complexes are the largest globular regions of star formation in galaxies. If there is a spiral density wave, nuclear ring, tidal arm, or other well-defined stellar structure, then gravitational instabilities in the gaseous component…

The concept of slice regular function over the real algebra $\mathbb{H}$ of quaternions is a generalization of the notion of holomorphic function of a complex variable. Let $\Omega$ be an open subset of $\mathbb{H}$, which intersects…

We prove a recently conjectured star-star relation, which plays the role of an integrability condition for a class of 2D Ising-type models with multicomponent continuous spin variables. Namely, we reduce this relation to an identity for…

Let $\mathfrak{T}$ denote the full Toeplitz algebra on the Bergman space of the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_n.$ For each subset $G$ of $L^{\infty},$ let $\mathfrak{CI}(G)$ denote the closed two-sided ideal of $\mathfrak{T}$ generated by all…

We study the distribution of line-of-sight velocities of galaxies in the vicinity of SDSS redMaPPer galaxy clusters. Based on their velocities, galaxies can be split into two categories: galaxies that are dynamically associated with the…

Let $G$ be a group and let ${\mathcal G}$ be a free factor system of $G$, namely a free splitting of $G$ as $G=G_1*\dots*G_k*F_r$. In this paper, we study the set of train track points for ${\mathcal G}$-irreducible automorphisms $\phi$…

Let X be a normal affine T-variety of complexity at most one over a perfect field k, where T stands for the split algebraic torus. Our main result is a classification of additive group actions on X that are normalized by the T-action. This…
