Abstract We demonstrate the breakdown of several fundamentals of Lorentzian causality theory in low regularity. Most notably, chronological futures (defined naturally using locally Lipschitz curves) may be non-open and may differ from the corresponding sets defined via piecewise $$C^1$$C1-curves. By refining the notion of a causal bubble from Chruściel and Grant (Class Quantum Gravity 29(14):145001, 2012), we characterize spacetimes for which such phenomena can occur, and also relate these to the possibility of deforming causal curves of positive length into timelike curves (push-up). The phenomena described here are, in particular, relevant for recent synthetic approaches to low-regularity Lorentzian geometry where, in the absence of a differentiable structure, causality has to be based on locally Lipschitz curves.

Given a simple graph, we associate with every set of paths of the same positive length a closure operator on the (vertex set of the) graph. These closure operators are then studied. In particular, it is shown that the connectedness with respect to them is a certain kind of path connectedness. Closure operators associated with sets of paths in some graphs with the vertex set Z2 are discussed which include the well known Marcus-Wyse and Khalimsky topologies used in digital topology. This demonstrates possible applications of the closure operators investigated in digital image analysis.

Given an undirected graph G = (V, E) with n vertices and a positive length w(e) on each edge e ∈ E, we consider Minimum Average Distance (MAD) spanning trees i.e., trees that minimize the path length summed over all pairs of vertices. One of the first results on this problem is due to Wong who showed in 1980 that a Distance Preserving (DP) spanning tree rooted at the median of G is a 2-approximate solution. On the other hand, Dankelmann has exhibited in 2000 a class of graphs where no MAD spanning tree is distance preserving from a vertex. We establish here a new relation between MAD and DP trees in the particular case where the lengths are integers. We show that in a MAD spanning tree of G, each subtree H′ = (V′, E′) consisting of a vertex [Formula: see text] and the union of branches of [Formula: see text] that are each of size less than or equal to [Formula: see text], where w+ is the maximum edge-length in G, is a distance preserving spanning tree of the subgraph of G induced by V′.

In this paper, we consider the elliptic systems [Formula: see text] where u ∈ W1, 2(R2, RK) and f ∈ L ln + L, and Ω belongs to L2(R2, MK(R)⊗R2) which is antisymmetric. In the first part we prove a compactness theorem for this system. As a corollary, we obtain the compactness theorem for a sequence of mappings from a Riemannian surface to a compact Riemannian manifold with tension fields bounded in L ln + L. In the second part we prove the energy identity for a sequence of mappings from a surface to a sphere with tension fields bounded in L ln + L. In the last section we construct a blow-up sequence of mappings from B1 to S2 with tension fields bounded in L ln + L but there exists a neck with positive length during blowing up.

We study the balanced Allen–Cahn problem in a singular perturbation setting. We are interested in the behaviour of clusters of layers, i.e. a family of solutions uε(x) with an increasing number of layers as ε → 0. In particular, we give a characterization of cluster of layers with asymptotically positive length by means of a limit energy function and, conversely, for a given admissible pattern, i.e. for a given a limit energy function, we construct a family of solutions with the corresponding behaviour.

Let F+(X) be the set of words of positive length over a finite set X. By an automaton mapping (over (X,Y)) we understand a mapping of F+(X) into a finite set Y where |Y|?1). The family of all mappings over (X,Y) may be considered as an infinite automaton U having 2? states. U has at most 2^{2?} subautomata and at most 2? countable subautomata. We show that these bounds are actually attained.
