For a finite set $X$, we say that a set $H\subseteq X$ crosses a partition ${\cal P}=(X_1,\dots,X_k)$ of $X$ if $H$ intersects $\min (|H|,k)$ partition classes. If $|H|\geq k$, this means that $H$ meets all classes $X_i$, whilst for…

Let a and b be positive integers with a \leq b. An (a,b)-triple is a set {x,ax+d,bx+ 2d}, where x,d \geq 1. Define T(a,b;r) to be the least positive integer n such that any r-coloring of {1,2...,n} contains a monochromatic (a,b)-triple.…

The Rado-Horn theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions for when a collection of vectors can be partitioned into a fixed number of linearly independent sets. Such partitions exist if and only if every subset of the vectors…

B\'ar\'any's "topological Tverberg conjecture" from 1976 states that any continuous map of an $N$-simplex $\Delta_N$ to $\mathbb{R}^d$, for $N\ge(d+1)(r-1)$, maps points from $r$ disjoint faces in $\Delta_N$ to the same point in…

We show that for every $r \geq 1$, and all $r$ distinct (sufficiently large) primes $p_1,..., p_r > p_0(r)$, there exist infinitely many integers $n$ such that ${2n \choose n}$ is divisible by these primes to only low multiplicity. From a…

In this paper, we investigate the minimum number of triangles, denoted by $t(n,k)$, in $n$-vertex $k$-regular graphs, where $n$ is an odd integer and $k$ is an even integer. The well-known Andr\'asfai-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Theorem has established…

We study $\mathbb{R}^2\oplus\mathbb{R}$-separately convex hulls of finite sets of points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, as in KirchheimMullerSverak2003. This notion of convexity, which we call $2+1$ convexity, corresponds to rank-one convex convexity,…

The type A colored Tverberg theorem of Blagojevi\'{c}, Matschke, and Ziegler provides optimal bounds for the colored Tverberg problem, under the condition that the number of intersecting rainbow simplices is a prime number. We extend this…

Euler's theorem asserts that $A(n)=B(n)$ where $A(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts and $B(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts. In this paper, it is proved that for $n>0$, \begin{align*}…

Hadwiger's conjecture asserts that if a simple graph $G$ has no $K_{t+1}$ minor, then its vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned into $t$ stable sets. This is still open, but we prove under the same hypotheses that $V(G)$ can be partitioned…

For $k\geq i\geq 1$, let $B_{k,i}(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ such that part 1 appears at most $i-1$ times, two consecutive integers l and $l+1$ appear at most $k-1$ times and if l and $l+1$ appear exactly $k-1$ times then…

The Heilbronn triangle problem asks for the placement of $n$ points in a unit square that maximizes the smallest area of a triangle formed by any three of those points. In $1972$, Schmidt considered a natural generalization of this problem.…

Consider some convex body $K\subset\mathbb R^d$. Let $X_1,\dots, X_k$, where $k\leq d$, be random points independently and uniformly chosen in $K$, and let $\xi_k$ be a uniformly distributed random linear $k$-plane. We show that for…

Scott asked the question of determining $c_d$ such that if $D$ is a digraph with $m$ arcs and minimum outdegree $d\ge 2$ then $V(D)$ has a partition $V_1, V_2$ such that $\min\left\{e(V_1,V_2),e(V_2, V_1)\right\}\geq c_dm$, where…

The classical Steinitz theorem states that if the origin belongs to the interior of the convex hull of a set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, then there are at most $2d$ points of $S$ whose convex hull contains the origin in the interior.…

Mubayi and Verstraete conjectured that if $T$ is a tree on $t + 1$ vertices, then any $n$-vertex graph $G$ with average degree $d$ contains at least \[ n d(d - 1) \cdots (d - t + 1) \] labeled copies of $T$ as long as $d$ is sufficiently…

We study some measure partition problems: Cut the same positive fraction of $d+1$ measures in $\mathbb R^d$ with a hyperplane or find a convex subset of $\mathbb R^d$ on which $d+1$ given measures have the same prescribed value. For both…

In 1975 Bollob\'as, Erd\H os, and Szemer\'edi asked the following question: given positive integers $n, t, r$ with $2\le t\le r-1$, what is the largest minimum degree $\delta(G)$ among all $r$-partite graphs $G$ with parts of size $n$ and…

We prove that if the Hausdorff dimension of $E \subset {\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 3$, is greater than $\min \left\{ \frac{dk+1}{k+1}, \frac{d+k}{2} \right\},$ then the ${k+1 \choose 2}$-dimensional Lebesgue measure of $T_k(E)$, the set of…
