We study the pigeonhole principle for $\Sigma_2$-definable injections with domain twice as large as the codomain, and the weak K\"onig lemma for $\Delta^0_2$-definable trees in which every level has at least half of the possible nodes. We…

Let $S$ be a Scott set, or even an $\omega$-model of $\mathsf{WWKL}$. Then for each $A\in S$, either there is $X \in S$ that is weakly 2-random relative to $A$, or there is $X\in S$ that is 1-generic relative to $A$. It follows that if…

The graph removal lemma is a fundamental result in extremal graph theory which says that for every fixed graph $H$ and $\varepsilon > 0$, if an $n$-vertex graph $G$ contains $\varepsilon n^2$ edge-disjoint copies of $H$ then $G$ contains…

A numbering of a countable family $S$ is a surjective map from the set of natural numbers $\omega$ onto $S$. The paper studies Rogers semilattices, i.e. upper semilattices induced by the reducibility between numberings, for families…

We study the properties of sets $\Sigma$ having the minimal length (one-dimensional Hausdorff measure) over the class of closed connected sets $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ satisfying the inequality $\mbox{max}_{y \in M}…

Motivated by an application in community detection, we consider an \ER random graph conditioned on the rare event that all connected components are fully connected. Such graphs can be considered as partitions of vertices into cliques.…

We consider the class of standard weighted Bergman spaces $A^2_{\alpha}(\mathbb{D})$ and the set $SF^N(\mathbb{T})$ of simple partial fractions of degree $N$ with poles on the unit circle. We prove that under certain conditions, the simple…

The Dushnik-Miller dimension of a partially-ordered set $P$ is the smallest $d$ such that one can embed $P$ into a product of $d$ linear orders. We prove that the dimension of the divisibility order on the interval $\{1, \dotsc, n\}$, is…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a positive line bundle over a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ defined over $\mathbb{R}$. We prove that sections $s$ of $\mathcal{L}^d$, $d\gg 0$, whose number of real zeros $\#Z_s$ deviates from the expected one are rare. We…

A standard tool for classifying the complexity of equivalence relations on $\omega$ is provided by computable reducibility. This reducibility gives rise to a rich degree structure. The paper studies equivalence relations, which induce…

Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, an $(\alpha, \beta)$-ruling set is a subset $S \subseteq V$ such that the distance between any two vertices in $S$ is at least $\alpha$, and the distance between any vertex in $V$ and the closest vertex in $S$ is…

We prove the following higher-order Szego theorems: if a measure on the unit circle has absolutely continuous part $w(\theta)$ and Verblunsky coefficients $\alpha$ with square-summable variation, then for any positive integer $m$, $\int…

We prove that for any integers $\alpha, \beta > 1$, the existential fragment of the first-order theory of the structure $\langle \mathbb{Z}; 0,1,<, +, \alpha^{\mathbb{N}}, \beta^{\mathbb{N}}\rangle$ is decidable (where $\alpha^{\mathbb{N}}$…

We introduce the notion of $\epsilon$-irreducibility for arithmetic cycles meaning that the degree of its analytic part is small compared to the degree of its irreducible classical part. We will show that for every $\epsilon>0$ any…

Meshalkin's theorem states that a class of ordered p-partitions of an n-set has at most $\max \binom{n}{a_1,...,a_p}$ members if for each k the k'th parts form an antichain. We give a new proof of this and the corresponding LYM inequality…

We show that static data structure lower bounds in the group (linear) model imply semi-explicit lower bounds on matrix rigidity. In particular, we prove that an explicit lower bound of $t \geq \omega(\log^2 n)$ on the cell-probe complexity…

In a graph $G$, a set $D\subseteq V(G)$ is called 2-dominating set if each vertex not in $D$ has at least two neighbors in $D$. The 2-domination number $\gamma_2(G)$ is the minimum cardinality of such a set $D$. We give a method for the…

This is the fourth paper in a series. We prove a conjecture made independently by Boston et al and Shalev. The conjecture asserts that there is an absolute positive constant delta such that if G is a finite simple group acting transitively…

For positive integers $s$ and $L \geq 3$, Berkovich and Uncu (Ann. Comb. $23$ ($2019$) $263$--$284$) conjectured an inequality between the sizes of two closely related sets of partitions whose parts lie in the interval $\{s, \ldots, L+s\}$.…

Let $\mathbf{M}$ be the basic set theory that consists of the axioms of extensionality, emptyset, pair, union, powerset, infinity, transitive containment, $\Delta_0$-separation and set foundation. This paper studies the relative strength of…
