We aim at studying collections of algebraic structures defined over a commutative ring and investigating the complexity of significant constructions carried out on these objects. The assignment of measures of size, via a multiplicity…

Shnirel'man's inequality and Shnirel'man's basis theorem are fundamental results about sums of sets of positive integers in additive number theory. It is proved that these results are inherently order-theoretic and extend to partially…

Given an ordered set partition, when one insert a number of bars in-between the blocks of the ordered set partition the result is a barred preferential arrangement. In this study, using the notion of barred preferential arrangements we…

An algebraic integer is said large if all its real or complex embeddings have absolute value larger than $1$. An integral ideal is said \emph{large} if it admits a large generator. We investigate the notion of largeness, relating it to some…

Szemer\'edi's Theorem states that a set of integers with positive upper density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Bergelson and Leibman generalized this, showing that sets of integers with positive upper density contain…

We investigate the structure of finite sets $A \subseteq \Z$ where $|A+A|$ is large. We present a combinatorial construction that serves as a counterexample to natural conjectures in the pursuit of an "anti-Freiman" theory in additive…

Answering a question of Hegyv\'ari and Ruzsa , we show that if A is a set of integers having positive upper Banach density, then the set A+A-A:= {a+b-c: a, b, c are in A} contains Bohr neighborhoods of many elements of A, where the radius…

The study of sums of finite sets of integers has mostly concentrated on sets with very small sumsets (Freiman's theorem and related work) and on sets with very large sumsets (Sidon sets and $B_h$-sets). This paper considers the full range…

Given a group $G$ and an integer $n\geq2$ we construct a new group $\tilde{{\cal K}}(G,n)$. Although this construction naturally occurs in the context of finding new invariants for complex algebraic surfaces, it is related to the theory of…

Let $A$ be a subset of $\mathbb{Z} / N\mathbb{Z}$ and let $\mathcal{R}$ be the set of large Fourier coefficients of $A$. Properties of $\mathcal{R}$ have been studied in works of M.-- C. Chang, B. Green and the author. In the paper we…

We present a self-contained analysis of infinity from two mathematical perspectives: set theory and algebra. We begin with cardinal and ordinal numbers, examining deep questions such as the continuum hypothesis, along with foundational…

A very useful fact in additive combinatorics is that analytic expressions that can be used to count the number of structures of various kinds in subsets of Abelian groups are robust under quasirandom perturbations, and moreover that…

If $A$ is a set of integers having positive upper Banach density and $r,s,t$ are nonzero integers whose sum is zero, a theorem of Bergelson and Ruzsa says that the set $rA+sA+tA:=\{ra_1+sa_2+ta_3:a_i\in A\}$ contains a Bohr neighborhood of…

Whether explicit or implicit, sets are a critical part of many pieces of software. As a result, it is necessary to develop abstractions of sets for the purposes of abstract interpretation, model checking, and deductive verification.…

We introduce and study higher order Jacobian ideals, higher order and mixed Hessians, higher order polar maps, and higher order Milnor algebras associated to a reduced projective hypersurface. We relate these higher order objects to some…

The combinatorial Hopf algebra on building sets $BSet$ extends the chromatic Hopf algebra of simple graphs. The image of a building set under canonical morphism to quasi-symmetric functions is the chromatic symmetric function of the…

In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…

We extend some classical constructions in commutative algebra to the setting of modules over orders in (non-commutative) semisimple algebras. Our theory incorporates, inter alia, `reduced' versions of the notions of higher Fitting…

Using the theory of noncommutative symmetric functions, we introduce the higher order peak algebras, a sequence of graded Hopf algebras which contain the descent algebra and the usual peak algebra as initial cases (N = 1 and N = 2). We…

We describe general connections between intersective properties of sets in Abelian groups and positive exponential sums. In particular, given a set $A$ the maximal size of a set whose difference set avoids $A$ will be related to positive…
