We demonstrate that when a graph exhibits a specific type of symmetry, it satisfies the Union Closed Conjecture(UCC). Additionally, we show that certain graph classes, such as Cylindrical Grid Graphs and Torus Grid Graphs also satisfy the…

We study the class of selfless C*-probability spaces introduced by Robert. It is known that a selfless tracial algebra has strict comparison and a unique trace. We prove that for separable tracial C*-algebras, selflessness is equivalent to…

Axiomatizing mathematical structures and theories is an objective of Mathematical Logic. Some axiomatic systems are nowadays mere definitions, such as the axioms of Group Theory; but some systems are much deeper, such as the axioms of…

The union-closed sets conjecture, attributed to P\'eter Frankl from 1979, states that for any non-empty finite union-closed family of finite sets not consisting of only the empty set, there is an element that is in at least half of the sets…

Causal DAGs (also known as Bayesian networks) are a popular tool for encoding conditional dependencies between random variables. In a causal DAG, the random variables are modeled as vertices in the DAG, and it is stipulated that every…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a locally compact Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoid. We call a tracial state $\tau$ on a general groupoid $C^*$-algebra $C_\nu^*(\mathcal{G})$ canonical if $\tau=\tau|_{C_0(\mathcal{G}^{(0)})} \circ E$, where…

We provide a simple proof for the union-closed sets conjecture, a long-standing open problem in set theory with immediate applications to graph theory, number theory, and order-theory.

Suitable reachability conditions can make two different fixed point semantics of a transition system coincide. For instance, the total and partial expected reward semantics on Markov chains (MCs) coincide whenever the MC at hand is almost…

We show that the decidability of the first-order theory of the language that combines Boolean algebras of sets of uninterpreted elements with Presburger arithmetic operations. We thereby disprove a recent conjecture that this theory is…

We prove the Baum--Connes conjecture with arbitrary coefficients for some classes of groups: (1) Linear algebraic groups over a non-archimedean local field. (2) Linear algebraic groups over the adeles of a global field k, provided that at…

We study possibilities for algebraic closures, differences between definable and algebraic closures in first-order structures, and variations of these closures with respect to the bounds of cardinalities of definable sets and given sets of…

We are given a set $A$ of buyers, a set $B$ of houses, and for each buyer a preference list, i.e., an ordering of the houses. A house allocation is an injective mapping $\tau$ from $A$ to $B$, and $\tau$ is strictly better than another…

In 1979 Frankl conjectured that in a finite non-trivial union-closed collection of sets there has to be an element that belongs to at least half the sets. We show that this is equivalent to the conjecture that in a finite non-trivial graph…

Let $G$ be an abelian group, and $F$ a downward directed family of subsets of $G$. The finest topology $\mathcal{T}$ on $G$ under which $F$ converges to $0$ has been described by I.Protasov and E.Zelenyuk. In particular, their description…

We introduce the notion of an M-family of infinite subsets of $\nn$ which is implicitly contained in the work of A. R. D. Mathias. We study the structure of a pair of orthogonal hereditary families $\aaa$ and $\bbb$, where $\aaa$ is…

Through careful analysis of types inspired by [AGTW21] we characterize a notion of definable compactness for definable topologies in general o-minimal structures, generalizing results from [PP07] about closed and bounded definable sets in…

We define an easily verifiable notion of an atomic formula having uniformly bounded arrays in a structure $M$. We prove that if $T$ is a complete $L$-theory, then $T$ is mutually algebraic if and only if there is some model $M$ of $T$ for…

We will say that a group G possesses the Magnus property if for any two elements u,v in G with the same normal closure, u is conjugate to v or v^{-1}. We prove that some one-relator groups, including the fundamental groups of closed…

We study the dependence of a cluster algebra on the choice of coefficients. We write general formulas expressing the cluster variables in any cluster algebra in terms of the initial data; these formulas involve a family of polynomials…

Let I_g,* denote the (pointed) Torelli group. This is the group of homotopy classes of homeomorphisms of the genus g >= 2 surface S_g with a marked point, acting trivially on H := H_1(S_g). In 1983 Johnson constructed a beautiful family of…
