How can we arrange $n$ lines through the origin in three-dimensional Euclidean space in a way that maximizes the minimum interior angle between pairs of lines? Conway, Hardin and Sloane (1996) produced line packings for $n \leq 55$ that…
We consider matchings with diametral disks between two sets of points R and B. More precisely, for each pair of matched points p in R and q in B, we consider the disk through p and q with the smallest diameter. We prove that for any R and B…
We study a variant of the Erd\H os unit distance problem, concerning angles between successive triples of points chosen from a large finite point set. Specifically, given a large finite set of $n$ points $E$, and a sequence of angles…
For the pure $\psi$-class intersection numbers $D(\textbf{e})=\langle \tau_{e_1} \cdots \tau_{e_n} \rangle_g$ on the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ of stable curves, we determine for which choices of $\textbf{e}=(e_1, \ldots,…
Matroid is a generalization of many fundamental objects in combinatorial mathematics , and matroid intersection problem is a classical subject in combinatorial optimization . However , only the intersection of two matroids are well…
In this paper, we address several intersection problems for $r$-cross $t$-intersecting families of partitions. A $k$-partition of an $n$-set $X$ is a set of $k$ pairwise disjoint non-empty subsets whose union is $X$. For $1\leq i\leq r$,…
A cyclic ordering of the points in a Mendelsohn triple system of order $v$ (or MTS$(v)$) is called a sequencing. A sequencing $D$ is $\ell$-good if there does not exist a triple $(x,y,z)$ in the MTS$(v)$ such that (1) the three points…
In this paper, we study the maximum matching problem in RDV graphs, i.e., graphs that are vertex-intersection graphs of downward paths in a rooted tree. We show that this problem can be reduced to a problem of testing (repeatedly) whether a…
In this paper we analyze a continuous version of the maximal covering location problem, in which the facilities are required to be interconnected by means of a graph structure in which two facilities are allowed to be linked if a given…
A geometric intersection graph is constructed over a set of geometric objects, where each vertex represents a distinct object and an edge connects two vertices if and only if the corresponding objects intersect. We examine the problem of…
A family of graphs F is said to be triangle-intersecting if for any two graphs G,H in F, the intersection of G and H contains a triangle. A conjecture of Simonovits and Sos from 1976 states that the largest triangle-intersecting families of…
For a positive integer $s$, an $s$-club in a graph $G$ is a set of vertices inducing a subgraph with diameter at most $s$. As generalizations of cliques, $s$-clubs offer a flexible model for real-world networks. This paper addresses the…
Let $\mathcal G$ be a family of subsets of an $n$-element set. The family $\mathcal G$ is called non-trivial $3$-wise intersecting if the intersection of any three subsets in $\mathcal G$ is non-empty, but the intersection of all subsets is…
We propose a unifying setting for dealing with monodromically atypical intersections that goes beyond the usual Zilber-Pink conjecture. In particular we obtain a new proof of finiteness of the maximal atypical orbit closures in each stratum…
The present paper is devoted to studying of minimal parametric fillings of finite metric spaces (a version of optimal connection problem) by methods of Linear Programming. The estimate on the multiplicity of multi-tours appearing in the…
We study the diametric problem (i.e., optimal anticodes) in the space of permutations under the Ulam distance. That is, let $S_n$ denote the set of permutations on $n$ symbols, and for each $\sigma, \tau \in S_n$, define their Ulam distance…
For a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$, define the minimum positive codegree $\delta_i^+(\mathcal{H})$ to be the largest integer $k$ such that every $i$-set which is contained in at least one edge of $\mathcal{H}$ is contained in at least $k$…
This paper introduces the \emph{$d$-distance $b$-matching problem}, in which we are given a bipartite graph $G=(S,T;E)$ with $S=\{s_1,\dots,s_n\}$, a weight function on the edges, an integer $d\in\mathbb{Z}_+$ and a degree bound function…
We consider ternary disc packings of the plane, i.e. the packings using discs of three different radii. Packings in which each ''hole'' is bounded by three pairwise tangent discs are called triangulated. There are 164 pairs $(r,s)$,…
A subset $M$ of the edge set of a graph $G$ is an induced matching of $G$ if given any two $e_1,e_2 \in M$, none of the vertices on $e_1$ is adjacent to any of the vertices on $e_2$. Suppose that $MIM_G$, a positive integer, is the largest…
