In this paper we describe all, up to isomorphism, left unital, right unital and unital algebra structures on two-dimensional vector space over any algebraically closed field and $\mathbb{R}$. We tabulate the algebras with the units.

We prove that, given any covering of any separable infinite-dimensional uniformly rotund and uniformly smooth Banach space $X$ by closed balls each of positive radius, some point exists in $X$ which belongs to infinitely many balls.

We define the class of weakly approximately divisible unital C*-algebras and show that this class is closed under direct sums, direct limits, any tensor product with any C*-algebra, and quotients. A nuclear C*-algebra is weakly…

We prove that an infinite (bounded) involution lattice and even pseudo--Kleene algebra can have any number of congruences between $2$ and its number of elements or equalling its number of subsets, regardless of whether it has as many ideals…

In this note, we study the geometry of the unit ball of the Banach space generated by the adequate family of all subsets of branches of the infinite binary tree, and answer several open questions related to slicely countably determined…

We find a class of algebras A satisfying the following property: for every nontrivial noncommutative polynomial, the linear span of all its values in A equals A. This class includes the algebras of all bounded and all compact operators on…

Using Wederburn's main theorem and a result of Gerstenhaber we prove that, over a field of characteristic zero, the maximal dimension of a proper unital subalgebra in the $n \times n$ matrix algebra is $n^2 - n + 1$ and furthermore this…

We study the volume of the intersection of two unit balls from one of the classical matrix ensembles GOE, GUE and GSE, as the dimension tends to infinity. This can be regarded as a matrix analogue of a result of Schechtman and…

Consider the set $\uu$ of real numbers $q \ge 1$ for which only one sequence $(c_i)$ of integers $0 \le c_i \le q$ satisfies the equality $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} c_i q^{-i} = 1$. In this note we show that the set of algebraic numbers in $\uu$…

We investigate the decomposition problem of balls into finitely many congruent pieces in dimension $d=2k$. In addition, we prove that the $d$ dimensional unit ball $B_d$ can be divided into finitely many congruent pieces if $d=4$ or $d\ge…

We prove that the highest density of non-overlapping translates of a given centrally symmetric convex domain relative to its outer parallel domain of given outer radius is attained by a lattice packing in the Euclidean plane. This…

We prove that if a topological sphere smoothly embedded into $\mathbb{R}^3$ with normal curvatures absolutely bounded by $1$ is contained in an open ball of radius $2$, then the region it bounds must contain a unit ball. This result…

We prove existence of partitions of an open set $\Omega$ with a given number of phases, which minimize the sum of the fractional perimeters of all the phases, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In two dimensions we show that, if the…

Following partially a suggestion by Pyber, we prove that the diameter of a product of non-abelian finite simple groups is bounded linearly by the maximum diameter of its factors. For completeness, we include the case of abelian factors and…

We show that a set $A \subset \{0,1\}^{n}$ with edge-boundary of size at most $|A| (\log_{2}(2^{n}/|A|) + \epsilon)$ can be made into a subcube by at most $(2 \epsilon/\log_{2}(1/\epsilon))|A|$ additions and deletions, provided $\epsilon$…

There exists a unique natural extension of higher Koszul brackets to every unitary associative algebras in a way that every square zero operator of degree 1 gives a curved L-infinity structure.

This paper studies absolute retracts in congruence modular varieties of universal algebras. It is shown that every absolute retract with finite dimensional congruence lattice is a product of subdirectly irreducible algebras. Further, every…

We resolve a few questions regarding the uniformity and size of microsets of subsets of Euclidean space. First, we construct a compact set $K\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with Assouad dimension arbitrarily close to $d$ such that every microset of…

Let $D$ be a non-pseudoconvex open set in $\C^3$ and $S$ be the union of all two-dimensional planes with non-empty and non-pseudoconvex intersection with $D.$ Sufficient conditions are given for $\C^3\setminus S$ to belong to a complex…

A zone of width $\omega$ on the unit sphere is the set of points within spherical distance $\omega/2$ of a given great circle. We show that the total width of any collection of zones covering the unit sphere is at least $\pi$, answering a…
