We present a short proof of Szemer\'edi's Theorem using a dynamical system enriched by ideas from model theory. The resulting proof contains features reminiscent of proofs based on both ergodic theory and on hypergraph regularity.

The characteristic sequence of hypergraphs $<P_n : n<\omega>$ associated to a formula $\phi(x;y)$, introduced in [arXiv:0908.4111], is defined by $P_n(y_1,... y_n) = (\exists x) \bigwedge_{i\leq n} \phi(x;y_i)$. This paper continues the…

In this paper, we present several density-type theorems which show how to find a copy of a sparse bipartite graph in a graph of positive density. Our results imply several new bounds for classical problems in graph Ramsey theory and improve…

We prove an analog of the Szemer\'edi-Trotter theorem in the plane for definable curves and points in any o-minimal structure over an arbitrary real closed field $\mathrm{R}$. One new ingredient in the proof is an extension of the well…

We define a graph to be $S$-regular if it contains an equitable partition given by a matrix $S$. These graphs are generalizations of both regular and bipartite, biregular graphs. An $S$-regular matrix is defined then as a matrix on an…

If $\Gamma$ is a graph for which every edge is in exactly one clique of order $\omega$, then one can form a new graph with vertex set equal to these cliques. This is a generalization of the line graph of $\Gamma$. We discover many general…

We consider the random geometric graph on $n$ vertices drawn uniformly from a $d$--dimensional sphere. We focus on the sparse regime, when the expected degree is constant independent of $d$ and $n$. We show that, when $d$ is larger than $n$…

The Spectral Excess Theorem (SPET) for distance-regular graphs states that a regular (connected) graph is distance-regular if and only if its spectral-excess equals its average excess. Recently, some local or global approaches to the SPET…

We examine the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of adjacency matrices of sparse regular random graphs. We find that when the degree sequence of the graph slowly increases to infinity with the number of…

In the present paper we propose generalizations of the regularity and counting lemmas for multidimensional matrices under a finite alphabet. Firstly, we prove a variant of a multidimensional regularity lemma with the help of a translation…

Sparse graphs with bounded average degree form a rich class of discrete structures where local geometry strongly influences global behavior. The Benjamini-Schramm (BS) convergence offers a natural framework to describe their asymptotic…

Let the integers $1,\ldots,n$ be assigned colors. Szemer\'edi's theorem implies that if there is a dense color class then there is an arithmetic progression of length three in that color. We study the conditions on the color classes forcing…

We investigate various forms of (model-theoretic) stability for hypergraphs and their corresponding strengthenings of the hypergraph regularity lemma with respect to partitions of vertices. On the one hand, we provide a complete…

We develop a new method for constructing approximate decompositions of dense graphs into sparse graphs and apply it to longstanding decomposition problems. For instance, our results imply the following. Let $G$ be a quasi-random $n$-vertex…

We present a unified approach to proving Ramsey-type theorems for graphs with a forbidden induced subgraph which can be used to extend and improve the earlier results of Rodl, Erdos-Hajnal, Promel-Rodl, Nikiforov, Chung-Graham, and…

It is well-known that if $(A,B)$ is an $\tfrac{\varepsilon}{2}$-regular pair (in the sense of Szemer\'edi) then there exist sets $A'\subset A$ and $B'\subset B'$ with $|A'|\leq \varepsilon|A|$ and $|B'|\leq \varepsilon|B|$ so that the…

We generalize the stable graph regularity lemma of Malliaris and Shelah to the case of finite structures in finite relational languages, e.g., finite hypergraphs. We show that under the model-theoretic assumption of stability, such a…

The regularity lemma is a stringent condition of the possible ranks of tensor blow-ups of linear subspaces of matrices. It was proved by Ivanyos, Qiao and Subrahmanyam when the underlying field is sufficiently large. We show that if the…

We study properties of random subcomplexes of partitions returned by (a suitable form of) the Strong Hypergraph Regularity Lemma, which we call regular slices. We argue that these subcomplexes capture many important structural properties of…

We show, for any positive integer k, that there exists a graph in which any equitable partition of its vertices into k parts has at least ck^2/\log^* k pairs of parts which are not \epsilon-regular, where c,\epsilon>0 are absolute…
