It is shown that for a constant $t\in \mathbb{N}$, every simple topological graph on $n$ vertices has $O(n)$ edges if it has no two sets of $t$ edges such that every edge in one set is disjoint from all edges of the other set (i.e., the…

We construct differential equivariant K-theory of representable smooth orbifolds as a ring valued functor with the usual properties of a differential extension of a cohomology theory. For proper submersions (with smooth fibres) we construct…

We use equivariant methods to establish basic properties of orbifold K-theory. We introduce the notion of twisted orbifold K-theory in the presence of discrete torsion, and show how it can be explicitly computed for global quotients.

We define the notion of a twisted topological graph algebra associated to a topological graph and a $1$-cocycle on its edge set. We prove a stronger version of a Vasselli's result. We expand Katsura's results to study twisted topological…

Perturbations due to round-off errors in computer modeling are discontinuous and therefore one cannot use results like KAM theory about smooth perturbations of twist maps. We elaborate a special approximation scheme to construct two smooth…

Let $\cal T$ be a tiling of the plane with equilateral triangles no two of which share a side. We prove that if the side lengths of the triangles are bounded from below by a positive constant, then $\cal T$ is periodic and it consists of…

We show that a compact quaternionic-K\"ahler manifold with positive scalar curvature and nonnegative sectional curvature is isometric to a symmetric space. This extends a classical theorem of Berger.

We prove that on the typical translation surface the flow in almost every pair of directions are not isomorphic to each other and are in fact disjoint. It was not known if there were any translation surfaces other than torus covers with…

After a review of the problems associated with the conventional treatment of particle oscillations, an oscillation formula is derived within the framework of quantum field theory. The oscillating particle is represented by its propagator…

We study transverse conformal Killing forms on foliations and prove a Gallot-Meyer theorem for foliations. Moreover, we show that on a foliation with $C$-positive normal curvature, if there is a closed basic 1-form $\phi$ such that…

A co-oriented foliation F of an oriented 3-manifold M is taut if and only if there is a map from M to the 2-sphere whose restriction to every leaf is a branched cover.

The combination of words ``discrete curvature'' is only an apparent contradiction. In this survey we describe curvature notions associated with polygons, polyhedral surfaces, and with abstract polyhedral manifolds. Several theorems about…

By the investigation of $k$-orbits symmetry properties it is obtained a simple proof of the B. Fein, W. M. Kantor and M. Schacher Theorem: any transitive permutation group contains a non-trivial fixed-point-free prime-power element. Key…

Kerr-Schild formalism is generalized by incorporation of the Kerr Theorem with polynomials of higher degrees in $Y\in CP^1.$ It leads to multisheeted twistor spaces and multiparticle solutions.

The Milnor-Wood inequality states that if a (topological) oriented circle bundle over an orientable surface of genus $g$ has a smooth transverse foliation, then the Euler class of the bundle satisfies $$|\mathcal{E}|\leq 2g-2.$$ We give a…

The Tait conjecture states that reduced alternating diagrams of links in S^3 have the minimal number of crossings. It has been proved in 1987 by M. Thistlethwaite, L.H. Kauffman and K. Murasugi studying the Jones polynomial. In this paper…

Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Here a weaker result is obtained: there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal…

As many will agree, it feels good to complement a cup of tea by a donut or two. This sweet relationship is also a guiding principle of non-commutative geometry known as Serre Theorem. We explain the algebra behind this theorem and prove…

This work is a continuation of [13]. We study the linear disjointness between higher-order oscillating sequences and nonlinear dynamical systems. Specifically, we prove that any oscillating sequence of order $m=d+k-1$ and any simple…

Menger's Edge Theorem asserts that there exist $k$ pairwise edge-disjoint paths between two vertices in an undirected graph if and only if a deletion of any $k-1$ or less edges does not disconnect these two vertices. Alternatively, there…
