Inspired by the classic problem of Boolean function monotonicity testing, we investigate the testability of other well-studied properties of combinatorial finite set systems, specifically \emph{intersecting} families and \emph{union-closed}…

Alternating bilinear maps with few relations allow to define a combinatorial closure similarly as in [2]. For the $\aleph_0$-categorical case we show that this closure is part of the algebraic closure.

Given a finite set $X$ and an ordering $\succeq$ over its subsets, the $l$-out-of-$d$ maximin-share of $X$ is the maximal (by $\succeq$) subset of $X$ that can be constructed by partitioning $X$ into $d$ parts and picking the worst union of…

This document seeks to prove there are infinitely many primes whose difference is 2, referred to as twin prime pairs. This proof's methodology involves constructing a function that approximates the number of positive integers, less than a…

P. Hrube\v s, S. Natarajan Ramamoorthy, A. Rao and A. Yehudayoff proved the following result: Let $p$ be a prime and let $f\in \mathbb F _p[x_1,\ldots,x_{2p}]$ be a polynomial. Suppose that $f(\mathbf{v_F})=0$ for each $F\subseteq [2p]$,…

We prove that if there are $\mathfrak c$ incomparable selective ultrafilters then, for every infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$, there exists a group topology on the free Abelian group of cardinality $\kappa$…

Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, it is proved that for $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\mathbb{Q},\,\beta\in\mathbb{R}$ and $0<\theta<10/1561$, there…

We study $\mathcal I$-maximal eventually different families of functions from the set of natural numbers into itself where $\mathcal I$ is an arbitrary ideal on the set of natural numbers that includes the ideal of all finite sets…

For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…

A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a total dominating set of $G$ if every vertex is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. The total domination number $\gamma_t(G)$ is the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set of $G$. The total…

An eternal dominating family of graph $G$ in the eviction game is a collection $\mathcal{D}_{k}=\{D_{1},...,D_{l}\}$ of dominating sets of $G$ such that (a) $|D_{i}|=|D_{j}|$ for all $i,j\in\{1,2,...,l\}$, and (b) for any $i\in…

It is known that the dynamics of $f$ and $g$ vary to a large extent from that of its composite entire functions. Using Approximation theory of entire functions, we have shown the existence of entire functions $f$ and $g$ having infinite…

Two families $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set are called $s$-almost cross-$t$-intersecting if each member in $\mathcal{F}$ (resp. $\mathcal{G}$) is $t$-disjoint with at most $s$ members in $\mathcal{G}$ (resp.…

A set $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a total dominating set if every vertex of $G$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $D$. The total domination number of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of any total dominating set of $G$ and is denoted…

We examine how closely a multiplicative function resembles an additive function. Given a multiplicative function $g$ and an additive function $f$, we examine the size of the quantity $E(f,g;x)=\# \{n\leq x:f(n)=g(n)\}$. We establish a lower…

Let $ G $ be a graph. A subset $S \subseteq V(G) $ is called a total dominating set if every vertex of $G$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $S$. The total domination number, $\gamma_{t}$($G$), is the minimum cardinality of a total…

In a recent breakthrough, Gilmer proved the union closed conjecture up to a constant factor. Using Gilmer's method and additional ideas, Chase and Lovett proved an optimal result for almost union-closed set systems. Here that result is…
