We prove that for every $n\geq 2$ the class of all finite $n$-partite tournaments (orientations of complete $n$-partite graphs) has the extension property for partial automorphisms, that is, for every finite $n$-partite tournament $G$ there…

A given subset $A$ of natural numbers is said to be complete if every element of $\mathbb{N}$ is the sum of distinct terms taken from $A$. This topic is strongly connected to the knapsack problem which is known to be NP complete.…

We study existence of random elements with partially specified distributions. The technique relies on the existence of a positive extension for linear functionals accompanied by additional conditions that ensure the regularity of the…

Let X be a complex projective variety of dimension n with only isolated normal singularities. In this paper we prove, using mixed Hodge theory, that if the link of each singular point of X is (n-2)-connected, then X is a formal topological…

Let $A$ be a random subset of $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ obtained by including each element of $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ in $A$ independently with probability $p$. We say that $A$ is \emph{linear} if the only Freiman homomorphisms are given by the…

A finite relational structure A is called compact if for any infinite relational structure B of the same type, the existence of a homomorphism from B to A is equivalent to the existence of homomorphisms from all finite substructures of B to…

We show that if there exists a countable Borel equivalence relation which is hyper-hyperfinite but not hyperfinite then the complexity of hyperfinite countable Borel equivalence relations is as high as possible, namely,…

It is shown that if T is a connected nontrivial graph and X is an arbitrary finite simplicial complex, then there is a graph G such that the complex Hom(T,G) is homotopy equivalent to X. The proof is constructive, and uses a nerve lemma.…

We examine ordered graphs, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, from the perspective of homomorphisms (and colorings) and their complexities. We demonstrate the corresponding computational and parameterized complexities, along…

We consider the conjugacy problem for the automorphism groups of a number of countable homogeneous structures. In each case we find the precise complexity of the conjugacy relation in the sense of Borel reducibility.

Deciding whether two simplicial complexes are homotopy equivalent is a fundamental problem in topology, which is famously undecidable. There exists a combinatorial refinement of this concept, called simple-homotopy equivalence: two…

For bipartite graphs the NP-completeness is proved for the problem of existence of maximum matching which removal leads to a graph with given lower(upper)bound for the cardinality of its maximum matching.
