We report some group divisible designs with block size five, including types $6^{15}$ and $10^{15}$. As a consequence we are able to extend the known spectrum for 5-GDDs of type $g^u$.
Block designs are combinatorial structures in which each pair of a set of varieties appears together in a fixed number of blocks. Complete graphs are graphs in which every pair of vertices are adjacent. We present some new constructions of…
It is well-known that the sequence of iterations of the composition of projections onto closed affine subspaces converges linearly to the projection onto the intersection of the affine subspaces when the sum of the corresponding linear…
We investigate the 1D version of the notable Bressan's mixing conjecture, and introduce various formulation in the classical optimal transport setting, the branched optimal transport setting and a combinatorial optimization. In the discrete…
We continue the work of Eriksen, Freij, and Wastlund [3], who study derangements that descend in blocks of prescribed lengths. We generalize their work to derangements that ascend in some blocks and descend in others. In particular, we…
For a polyhedron $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, denote by $|P|$ its combinatorial complexity, i.e., the number of faces of all dimensions of the polyhedra. In this paper, we revisit the classic problem of preprocessing polyhedra independently so…
A series of longstanding questions in harmonic analysis ask if the intersection of all prime ``$p$-adic versions" of an object, such as a doubling measure, or a Muckenhoupt or reverse H\"older weight, recovers the full object. Investigation…
In this paper, we consider solving multiple-block separable convex minimization problems using alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). Motivated by the fact that the existing convergence theory for ADMM is mostly limited to the…
In this paper, we consider first order Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) equations posed on a ``junction'', that is to say the union of a finite number of half-lines with a unique common point. For this continuous HJ problem, we propose a finite…
We study the 3-Calabi-Yau categories $\mathcal{D}$ arising from quivers with potential associated to a decorated marked surface $\mathbf{S}_\bigtriangleup$ introduced by the first author. We prove two conjectures in the prequel, that under…
We give a recipe to compute the geometric intersection number of an integral lamination with a particular type of integral lamination on an n-times punctured disk. This provides a way to find the geometric intersection number of two…
Following a combinatorial observation made by one of us recently in relation to a problem in quantum information [Nakata et al., Phys. Rev. X 7:021006 (2017)], we study what are the possible intersection cardinalities of a $k$-dimensional…
Subspace codes are collections of subspaces of a projective space such that any two subspaces satisfy a pairwise minimum distance criterion. Recent results have shown that it is possible to construct optimal $(5,3)$ subspace codes from…
We describe how to compute the intersection of two Lucas sequences of the forms $\{U_n(P,\pm 1) \}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ or $\{V_n(P,\pm 1) \}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ with $P\in\mathbb{Z}$ that includes sequences of Fibonacci, Pell, Lucas, and Lucas-Pell…
Since 1997 a considerable effort has been spent on the study of the swap (switch) Markov chains on graphic degree sequences. Several results were proved on rapidly mixing Markov chains on regular simple, on regular directed, on half-regular…
The discrete cube $\{0,1\}^d$ is a fundamental combinatorial structure. A subcube of $\{0,1\}^d$ is a subset of $2^k$ of its points formed by fixing $k$ coordinates and allowing the remaining $d-k$ to vary freely. The subcube structure of…
Enumeration of all combinatorial types of point configurations and polytopes is a fundamental problem in combinatorial geometry. Although many studies have been done, most of them are for 2-dimensional and non-degenerate cases. Finschi and…
We generalise the existence of combinatorial designs to the setting of subset sums in lattices with coordinates indexed by labelled faces of simplicial complexes. This general framework includes the problem of decomposing hypergraphs with…
The study of intersection problems in Extremal Combinatorics dates back perhaps to 1938, when Paul Erd\H{o}s, Chao Ko and Richard Rado proved the (first) `Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem' on the maximum possible size of an intersecting family of…
Let $G=(V,E))$ be a directed graph. A $2$-twinless block in $G$ is a maximal vertex set $B\subseteq V$ of size at least $2$ such that for each pair of distinct vertices $x,y \in B$, and for each vertex $w\in V\setminus\left\lbrace x,y…
