THE SPACE OF n POINTS ON A TROPICAL LINE IN d-SPACE
نویسنده
چکیده
The tropical semiring (R,min,+) has enjoyed a recent renaissance, owing to its connections to mathematical biology as well as optimization and algebraic geometry. In this paper, we investigate the space of n points on a tropical line in d-space, which is interpretable as the space of n-species phylogenetic trees. This is equivalent to the space of n × d matrices of tropical rank two, a simplicial complex. We prove that this simplicial complex is shellable for dimension d = 3 and compute its homology in this case, conjecturing that this complex is shellable in general. We also investigate the space of d× n matrices of Barvinok rank two, a subcomplex directly related to optimization, giving a complete description of this subcomplex in the case d = 3.

ON THE STRUCTURE OF FINITE PSEUDO- COMPLEMENTS OF QUADRILATERALS AND THEIR EMBEDDABILITY
A pseudo-complement of a quadrilateral D of order n, n, > 3, is a non-trivial (n+l)- regular linear space with n - 3n + 3 points and n + n - 3 lines. We prove that if n > 18 and D has at least one line of size n - 1, or if n > 25 , then the set of lines of D consists of three lines of size n -1, 6(n - 2) lines of size n - 2, and n - 5n + 6 lines of size n - 3. Furthermore, if n > 21 and D...
متن کاملOn the Structure of Metric-like Spaces
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce several concepts of the metric-like spaces. For instance, we define concepts such as equal-like points, cluster points and completely separate points. Furthermore, this paper is an attempt to present compatibility definitions for the distance between a point and a subset of a metric-like space and also for the distance between two subsets of a metr...

In this paper we prove an analogue of Banach and Kannan fixed point theorems by generalizing the Lipschitz constat $k$, in generalized Lipschitz mapping on cone metric space over Banach algebra, which are answers for the open problems proposed by Sastry et al, [K.

متن کاملSOME POINTS ON CASIMIR FORCES
Casimir forces of massive ferrnionic Dirac fields are calculated for parallel plates geometry in spatial space with dimension d and imposing bag model boundary conditions. It is shown that in the range of ma>>l where m is mass of fields quanta and a is the separation distance of the plates, it is equal to massive bosonic fields Casimir force for each degree of freedom. We argue this equalit...
