We explore various combinatorial problems mostly borrowed from physics, that share the property of being continuously or discretely integrable, a feature that guarantees the existence of conservation laws that often make the problems…

An extension of the divisibility relation on $\mathbb{N}$ to the set $\beta\mathbb{N}$ of ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ was defined and investigated in several papers during the last ten years. Here we make a survey of results obtained so…

The purpose of this paper is to produce restrictions on fundamental groups of manifolds admitting good complexifications by proving the following Cheeger-Gromoll type splitting theorem: Any closed manifold $M$ admitting a good…

In classical works, Hurewicz and Menger introduced two diagonalization properties for sequences of open covers. Hurewicz found a combinatorial characterization of these notions in terms of continuous images. Recently, Scheepers has shown…

This paper deals with properties of filtrations on vector spaces indexed by partially ordered finitely generated abelian groups, which we call multifiltrations. We discuss the usual properties of filtrations, like exhaustivity and…

We investigate three combinatorial problems considered by Erd\"os, Rivat, Sark\"ozy and Sch\"on regarding divisibility properties of sum sets and sets of shifted products of integers in the context of function fields. Our results in this…

We study various combinatorial properties, and the implications between them, for filters generated by infinite-dimensional subspaces of a countable vector space. These properties are analogous to selectivity for ultrafilters on the natural…

We introduce the split principles and show that they bear tight connections to large cardinal properties such as inaccessibility, weak compactness, subtlety, almost ineffability and ineffability, as well as classical combinatorial objects…

In this paper we extend previous studies of selection principles for families of open covers of sets of real numbers to also include families of countable Borel covers. The main results of the paper could be summarized as follows: 1. Some…

We study the partition properties enjoyed by the "next best thing to a P-point'' ultrafilters introduced recently in joint work with Dobrinen and Raghavan. That work established some finite-exponent partition relations, and we now analyze…

We show that, for a certain class of partitions and an even number of variables of which half are reciprocals of the other half, Schur polynomials can be factorized into products of odd and even orthogonal characters. We also obtain related…

A split graph is a graph whose vertices can be partitioned into a clique and a stable set. We investigate the combinatorial species of split graphs, providing species-theoretic generalizations of enumerative results due to B\'ina and…

We introduce multi-split continuous functions between topological spaces, a weaker form of continuity that generalizes split continuity while being stable under compositions. We will define the associated star multifunction and…

Let M be a (possibly non-orientable) compact 3-manifold with (possibly empty) boundary consisting of tori and Klein bottles. Let $X\subset\partial M$ be a trivalent graph such that $\partial M\setminus X$ is a union of one disc for each…

We continue the exploration of various aspects of divisibility of ultrafilters, adding one more relation to the picture: multiplicative finite embeddability. We show that it lies between divisibility relations $\mid_M$ and…

Splitting invariants describe how a plane curve "splits" by the pull-back under a Galois cover over the projective plane whose branch locus contains no component of the plane curve. They enable us to distinguish the embedded topology of…

In this thesis, we introduce the subject of D-spaces and some of its most important open problems which are related to well known covering properties. We then introduce a new approach for studying D-spaces and covering properties in…

We show that splitting forcing does not have the weak Sacks property below any condition, answering a question of Laguzzi, Mildenberger and Stuber-Rousselle. We also show how some partition results for splitting trees hold or fail and we…

The work in this article is concerned with two different types of families of finite sets: separating families and splitting families (they are also called "systems"). These families have applications in combinatorial search, coding theory,…

A class of matroids is introduced which is very large as it strictly contains all paving matroids as special cases. As their key feature these split matroids can be studied via techniques from polyhedral geometry. It turns out that the…
