Looking for N-dimensional spheres in the configuration space of the colorful Tverberg problem

Here we use standard notation for Tverberg's theorem: Dimension $d$, number of partition blocks $r$, and $N=(r-1)(d+1)$. The configuration space of Tverberg's theorem is the simplicial complex ...

Are lightface \Delta-1-1 classes of reals describable with hyperarthmetic formulae?

I'd appreciate if someone could check my reasoning. Suppose $S$ is a lightface $\Delta^1_1$ class of reals. I want to argue that there is a computable $\Delta^0_\alpha$ formula $\phi(Y)$, for ...

Borel-Serre compactification of $\mathbb{H}^3 / SL_2(\mathcal{O}_K)$

Let $\mathbb{H}^3$ be the three-dimensional hyperbolic space. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic number field and $\mathcal{O}_K$ its ring of integers. Then $SL_2(\mathcal{O}_K)$ acts on $\mathbb{H}^3$ ...

Modular form, number of divisors

The Fourier expansion of Eisenstein series $E_k$ $(k \ge 4)$, which are modular forms, as well as the quasimodular $E_2$, involves powers-of-divisors $\sigma_{k-1}(n) = \sum_{d|n} d^{k-1}$. Is there ...

Is there a group-theoretic proof of the Riemann rearrangement theorem? [on hold]

The analytic proofs are easy to understand but they don't explain why commutativity breaks down when you go from finite sums to infinite sums of real numbers. I suspect that this involves the action ...
