In various application fields, such as fluid-, cell-, or crowd-simulations, spatial data structures are very important. They answer nearest neighbor queries which are instrumental in performing necessary computations for, e.g., taking the…

Let K be a field of any characteristic and let R be an algebra generated by two elements satisfying quadratic equations. Then R is a homomorphic image of F=K<x,y | x^2+ax+b=0,y^2+cy+d=0> for suitable a,b,c,d in K. We establish that F can be…

We show that if the neighbor complex, as defined by H.~Scarf, of an infinite subset of $\Z^n$ has finite dimension, then each vertex has finitely many neighbors.

By combining well-known techniques from both noncommutative algebra and computational commutative algebra, we observe that an algorithmic approach can be applied to the study of irreducible representations of finitely presented algebras. In…

In this article, we prove the following results:\\ \noindent \text{(1).} Let $R$ be a smooth affine algebra of dimension $3$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ with $3!\in K$, then we show that $\Um_4(R)=e_1\Sp_4(R)$ and $\Um_4(R…

Given a graph $G$, an arithmetical structure on $G$ is a pair of positive integer vectors $({\bf d},{\bf r})$ such that $\mathrm{gcd}({\bf r}_v\, | \,v\in V(G))=1$ and \[ (\mathrm{diag}({\bf d})-A){\bf r}=0, \] where $A$ is the adjacency…

The aim of this article is to give a rigorous geometric interpretation of the completion of a ring with respect to an ideal. To this end, we define the infinitesimal neighbourhood of an immersion of formal schemes as the largest possible…

Let $R$ be either the ring of Lipschitz quaternions, or the ring of Hurwitz quaternions. Then, $R$ is a subring of the division ring $\mathbb{D}$ of rational quaternions. For $S \subseteq R$, we study the collection $\rm{Int}(S,R) = \{f \in…

We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…

A definable set in a pair (K, k) of algebraically closed fields is co-analyzable relative to the subfield k of the pair if and only if it is almost internal to k. To prove this and some related results for tame pairs of real closed fields…

Let $X$ be a connected space. An element $[f]\in \pi_n(X)$ is called rationally inert if $\pi_*(X)\otimes \mathbb Q \to \pi_*(X\cup_fD^{n+1})\otimes \mathbb Q$ is surjective. We extend the results obtained in the simply connected case, and…

The quotient set, or ratio set, of a set of integers $A$ is defined as $R(A) := \left\{a/b : a,b \in A,\; b \neq 0\right\}$. We consider the case in which $A$ is the image of $\mathbb{Z}^+$ under a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, and we…

A map $f\colon K\to \mathbb R^d$ of a simplicial complex is an almost embedding if $f(\sigma)\cap f(\tau)=\emptyset$ whenever $\sigma,\tau$ are disjoint simplices of $K$. Theorem. Fix integers $d,k\ge2$ such that $d=\frac{3k}2+1$. (a)…

This paper continues a research program on constructive investigations of non-commutative Ore localizations, initiated in our previous papers, and particularly touches the constructiveness of arithmetics within such localizations. Earlier…

Let $f_{1}, \ldots, f_{k}$ be polynomials defining an algebraic set in affine $n$-space over a finite field. Suppose $k>n$. We prove that there exists a system of polynomials $g_{1}, \ldots, g_{n}$, each being a linear combination with…

When can $n$ given numbers be combined using arithmetic operators from a given subset of $\{+, -, \times, \div\}$ to obtain a given target number? We study three variations of this problem of Arithmetic Expression Construction: when the…

We prove that for a continuum $K\subset \mathbb R^n$ the sum $K^{+n}$ of $n$ copies of $K$ has non-empty interior in $\mathbb R^n$ if and only if $K$ is not flat in the sense that the affine hull of $K$ coincides with $\mathbb R^n$.…

We prove an assortment of results on (commutative and unital) NIP rings, especially $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebras. Let $R$ be a NIP ring. Then every prime ideal or radical ideal of $R$ is externally definable, and every localization $S^{-1}R$ is…

Let $(Q,\mathfrak{n})$ be a regular local ring of dimension $c \geq 2$ with algebraically closed residue field $k = Q/\mathfrak{n}$. Let $f_1, f_2, \ldots f_{c-1}, g$ be a regular sequence in $Q$ such that $ f_i \in \mathfrak{n}^2$ for all…

Let H stand for the set of homeomorphisms on [0,1]. We prove the following dichotomy for Borel subsets A of [0,1]: either there exists a homeomorphism f in H such that the image f(A) contains no 3-term arithmetic progressions; or, for every…
