In the affine fragment of continuous logic, type spaces are compact convex sets. I study some model theoretic properties of extreme types. It is proved that every complete theory $T$ has an extremal model, i.e. a model which realizes only…

Motivated by classification, up to order isomorphism, of some dense subgroups of Euclidean space that are free of minimal rank, we obtain apparently new invariants for an equivalence relation (intermediate between Hermite and Smith) on…

A planar (upper) semimodular lattice $L$ is slim if the five-element nondistributive modular lattice $M_3$ does not occur among its sublattices. (Planar lattices are finite by definition.) Slim rectangular lattices as particular slim planar…

We consider divergent orbits of the group of diagonal matrices in the space of lattices in Euclidean space. We define two natural numerical invariants of such orbits: The discriminant - an integer - and the type - an integer vector. We then…

The concept of spherical $t$-design, which is a finite subset of the unit sphere, was introduced by Delsarte-Goethals-Seidel (1977). The concept of Euclidean $t$-design, which is a two step generalization of spherical design in the sense…

Erd\H{o}s proved an upper bound on the number of edges in an $n$-vertex non-Hamiltonian graph with given minimum degree and showed sharpness via two members of a particular graph family. F\"{u}redi, Kostochka and Luo showed that these two…

Nearly orthogonal lattices were formally defined in [4], where their applications to image compression were also discussed. The idea of ``near orthogonality" in $2$-dimensions goes back to the work of Gauss. In this paper, we focus on…

Groups $\Pi_k(X;\sigma)$ of "flagged homotopies" are introduced of which the usual (abelian for $k>1$) homotopy groups $\pi_k(X;p)$ is the limit case for flags $\sigma$ contracted to a point $p$. Calculus of exterior forms with values in…

In this article we prove new results about the existence of 2-cells in disc diagrams which are extreme in the sense that they are attached to the rest of the diagram along a small connected portion of their boundary cycle. In particular, we…

We prove properties of extremal graphs of girth 5 and order 20 <=v <= 32. In each case we identify the possible minimum and maximum degrees, and in some cases prove the existence of (non-trivial) embedded stars. These proofs allow for…

As a consequence of the classification of the finite simple groups, it has been possible in recent years to characterize Steiner t-designs, that is t-(v,k,1) designs, mainly for t = 2, admitting groups of automorphisms with sufficiently…

The concept of a $\lambda$-lattice was introduced by V. Sn\'a\v sel in order to generalize some lattice concepts for directed posets whose elements need not have suprema or infima. We extend the concept of semimodularity from lattices to…

We review a lattice construction arising from quaternion algebras over number fields and use it to obtain some known extremal and densest lattices in dimensions 8 and 16. The benefit of using quaternion algebras over number fields is that…

We combinatorially characterize the number $\mathrm{cc}_2$ of conjugacy classes of involutions in any Coxeter group in terms of higher rank odd graphs. This notion naturally generalizes the concept of odd graphs, used previously to count…

This paper explores alternative statements of the axioms for lattice gluing, focusing on lattices that are modular, locally finite, and have finite covers, but may have infinite height. We give a set of "maximal" axioms that maximize what…

We investigate a conventional tight-binding model for graphene, where distortion of the honeycomb lattice is allowed, but penalized by a quadratic energy. We prove that the optimal 3-periodic lattice configuration has Kekul\'e O-type…

We provide a new class of Z_N x Z_M heterotic orbifolds on non-factorisable tori, whose boundary conditions are defined by Lie lattices. Generally, point groups of these orbifolds are generated by Weyl reflections and outer automorphisms of…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a locally compact group to be isomorphic to a closed cocompact subgroup in the isometry group of a Diestel-Leader graph. As a consequence of this condition, we see that every cocompact…

Inspired by recent work of Aslanyan and Daw, we introduce the notion of $\Sigma$-orbits in the general framework of distinguished categories. In the setting of connected Shimura varieties, this concept contains many instances of…

Finite (upper) nearlattices are essentially the same mathematical entities as finite semilattices, finite commutative idempotent semigroups, finite join-enriched meet semilattices, and chopped lattices. We prove that if an $n$-element…
