### metrizable neighborhoods of compact subsets

This is a question about general topology: Assume we are given a first countable Hausdorff space and a compact subset K. Is it possible to find a countable basis of open neighborhoods of K ? ...

### a generalization of the annihilator of cokernel ideal

Let $R$ be a (commutative, associative, unital) ring, consider a homomorphism of some (finitely generated) free $R$-modules $F\stackrel{A}{\rightarrow}G$. Its basic invariants are the Fitting ideals, ...

### Conditional Form of Rosenthal's Inequality

Rosenthal's Inequality as stated in the book "Martingale Limit Theory and Its Application" by Hall and Heyde states the following: If $\{S_i, \mathcal{F}_i, 1\leq i \leq n\}$ is a martingale and ...

### Handelman's positivstellensatz for symmetric matrix-valued polynomials

For certain classes of sets $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, there exist algebraic characterizations of real valued polynomials $p: \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ that are positive on $S$. Several ...

### Does the algorithm to construct the edge-colored graphs with this special property have any importance? [closed]

I found a semi-general solution to the following open-ended question and obtained the explicit algorithms to construct the edge-colored graphs with the following special property. But does my solution ...

### Which groups may be obtained as $K$-homology groups?

Recently I asked the following question, about the separability of the underlying $C^*$-algebra in the definition of $K$-homology: mathoverflow.net/questions/181361 As far as I understood, ...

### Semigroups with group like behavior

I'm trying to generalize some results done to groups to the semigroup case. I noticed that the results will not work with a general semigroup, I decided to try to extend the results to the inverse ...

### What can be said of the structure of a metric space without isosceles triangles?

This is a question that has been bothering me in the back of my head for quite some time. Suppose we have a metric space $X$ with metric $\mathrm{d}$. By an isosceles triangle we mean a tuple of ...

### Canonical bundle of moduli space of rational curves and automorphisms

Let $\overline{M}_{0,n}$ be the usual Deligne-Mumford compactification of $M_{0,n}$ the moduli space of smooth $n$-pointed rational curves. The canonical divisor $K_{\overline{M}_{0,n}}$ can be ...

### Induced subgraphs on a Laminar family of vertices with constant diameter

$X$ is a family of subsets of $V$. $X$ is called a Laminar family on $V$ if for all $A,B\in X$, either $A\cap B=\emptyset$, $A\subset B$ or $B\subset A$. Let $X$ be a family of subsets of $V$. A ...

### convergence of L-functions of curves

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve over $\mathbb{Q}$. Its associated L-function is defined by $$L(C, s)=\prod_{p \text{ prime}} L_p(C, s),$$ where, if $p$ is a prime of good reduction, ...

### Cancellative semigroup on a distributive lattice

Let $(S,\le)$ be a distributive lattice. Is there a semigroup structure on $S$ such that $S$ is cancellative and always $(x\wedge y)(x\vee y)=xy$?

### The unit tangent bundle of 2- or 4-manifolds as a principal $S^{1}$- or $S^{3}$-bundle

What type of obstructions have been studied so that the unit tangent bundle of a Riemannian 2-(4-)manifold have a structure of a principal $S^{1}$-($S^{3}$-)bundle?
I know this question this doesn't belong here. However, I am not getting a satisfactory reply from the mathematica forum. Consider $2\times 2$ real symmetric matrices $\mathbf{A}_1$ and ...
