چکیده
We study Einstein metrics on smooth compact 4-manifolds with an edge-cone singularity of specified cone angle along an embedded 2-manifold. To do so, we first derive modified versions of the Gauss–Bonnet and signature theorems for arbitrary Riemannian 4-manifolds with edge-cone singularities, and then show that these yield non-trivial obstructions in the Einstein case. We then use these integral formulæ to obtain interesting information regarding gravitational instantons which arise as limits of such edge-cone manifolds.

Mathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society Complete Erdos Space Is Unstable
It is proved that the countably infinite power of complete Erdős space Ec is not homeomorphic to Ec. The method by which this result is obtained consists of showing that Ec does not contain arbitrarily small closed subsets that are one-dimensional at every point. This observation also produces solutions to several problems that were posed by Aarts, Kawamura, Oversteegen and Tymchatyn. In additi...

We prove that if q 5 is an integer, then every qth power of an integer contains at least 5 nonzero digits in its binary expansion. This is a particular instance of one of a collection of rather more general results, whose proofs follow from a combination of refined lower bounds for linear forms in Archimedean and non-Archimedean logarithms with various local arguments.
