We present a bijection between non-crossing partitions of the set $[2n+1]$ into $n+1$ blocks such that no block contains two consecutive integers, and the set of sequences $\{s_{i}\}_{1}^{n}$ such that $1 \leq s_{i} \leq i$, and if…

We find bijections on 2-distant noncrossing partitions, 12312-avoiding partitions, 3-Motzkin paths, UH-free Schr{\"o}der paths and Schr{\"o}der paths without peaks at even height. We also give a direct bijection between 2-distant…

Set partitions avoiding $k$-crossing and $k$-nesting have been extensively studied from the aspects of both combinatorics and mathematical biology. By using the generating tree technique, the obstinate kernel method and Zeilberger's…

We construct a direct natural bijection between descending plane partitions without any special part and permutations. The directness is in the sense that the bijection avoids any reference to nonintersecting lattice paths. The advantage of…

In this paper we shall give a short proof of the result originally obtained by Ashutosh Kumar that for each $A\subset \mathbb{R}$ there exists $B\subset A$ full in $A$ such that no distance between two distinct points from $B$ is rational.…

A k-triangulation of a convex polygon is a maximal set of diagonals so that no k+1 of them mutually cross in their interiors. We present a bijection between 2-triangulations of a convex n-gon and pairs of non-crossing Dyck paths of length…

In this note a bijection is constructed between the set of partitions of n simultaneously s-regular and t-distinct, and those simultaneously t-regular and s-distinct. Some implications of the map are discussed. As a generalized version of…

We prove that a generic second order differential equation in the projective plane has no algebraic solutions when the bidegree is big enough. We also proof an analogous result for webs on $\mathbb{P}}^{2}$.

A theorem of Andrews equates partitions in which no part is repeated more than 2k-1 times to partitions in which, if j appears at least k times, all parts less than j also do so. This paper proves the theorem bijectively, with some of the…

For a cardinal $\mathfrak{a}$, let $\mathrm{fin}(\mathfrak{a})$ be the cardinality of the set of all finite subsets of a set which is of cardinality $\mathfrak{a}$. It is proved without the aid of the axiom of choice that for all infinite…

The Schr\"oder-Bernstein theorem states that, for any two sets P and Q, if there exists an injection from P to Q and an injection from Q to P, then there must exist a bijection between the two sets. Classically, it follows that the ordering…

We prove the joints conjecture, showing that for any $N$ lines in ${\Bbb R}^3$, there are at most $O(N^{{3 \over 2}})$ points at which 3 lines intersect non-coplanarly. We also prove a conjecture of Bourgain showing that given $N^2$ lines…

Let n be finite >2. We show that any class between S\Nr_n\CA_{n+3} and RCA_n is not atom canonical, and any class containing the class of completely representable algebras and contained in S_c\Nr_n\CA_{n+3} is not elementary. We show that…

We study the possible structures which can be carried by sets which have no countable subset, but which fail to be `surjectively Dedekind finite', in two possible senses, that there is a surjection to $\omega$, or alternatively, that there…

The main question here is the possible generalization of the following theorem on ``simple'' equivalence relation on 2^omega to higher cardinals. Theorem: (1) Assume that: (a) E is a Borel 2-place relation on 2^omega, (b) E is an…

We present a direct bijection between descending plane partitions with no special parts and permutation matrices. This bijection has the desirable property that the number of parts of the descending plane partition corresponds to the…

A sub-problem of the open problem of finding an explicit bijection between alternating sign matrices and totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions consists in finding an explicit bijection between so-called $(n,k)$ Gog…

B\`{e}s and Choffrut recently showed that there are no intermediate structures between $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ and $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\mathbb{Z})$. We prove a generalization: if $\mathcal{R}$ is an o-minimal expansion of $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ by…

We prove that there exists a constant $\gamma_{\mathrm{crit}}\approx .17566$ such that if $G\sim \mathbb{G}(n,1/2)$ then for any $\varepsilon > 0$ with high probability $G$ has a equipartition such that each vertex has…

Let R be Alexandroff's long ray. We prove that the homotopy classes of continuous maps R^n \to R are in bijection with the antichains of P({1,...,n}). The proof uses partition properties of continuous maps R^n \to R. We also provide a…
