Denote the collection of all $k$-flats in $AG(n,\mathbb{F}_q)$ by $\mathscr{M}(k,n)$. Let $\mathscr{F}_1\subset\mathscr{M}(k_1,n)$ and $\mathscr{F}_2\subset\mathscr{M}(k_2,n)$ satisfy $\dim(F_1\cap F_2)\ge t$ for any $F_1\in\mathscr{F}_1$…

In this paper we determine the maximum number of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which form exactly $t$ distinct triangles, where we restrict ourselves to the case of $t = 1$. We denote this quantity by $F_d(t)$. It was known from the work of…

Codes in finite projective spaces equipped with the subspace distance have been proposed for error control in random linear network coding. The resulting so-called \emph{Main Problem of Subspace Coding} is to determine the maximum size…

We investigate the problem of packing and covering odd $(u,v)$-trails in a graph. A $(u,v)$-trail is a $(u,v)$-walk that is allowed to have repeated vertices but no repeated edges. We call a trail odd if the number of edges in the trail is…

Analyzing and identifying the shortcomings of current subdivision methods for finding intersections of rays with fibers defined by the surface of a circular contour swept along a B\'ezier curve, we present a new algorithm that improves…

A matching is compatible to two or more labeled point sets of size $n$ with labels $\{1,\dots,n\}$ if its straight-line drawing on each of these point sets is crossing-free. We study the maximum number of edges in a matching compatible to…

We use computational experiments to find the rectangles of minimum area into which a given number n of non-overlapping congruent circles can be packed. No assumption is made on the shape of the rectangles. Most of the packings found have…

Given a mixed hypergraph $\mathcal{F}=(V,\mathcal{A}\cup \mathcal{E})$, functions $f,g:V\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_+$ and an integer $k$, a packing of $k$ spanning mixed hyperarborescences is called $(k,f,g)$-flexible if every $v \in V$ is the…

We study the problem of finding maximum-area triangles that can be inscribed in a polygon in the plane. We consider eight versions of the problem: we use either convex polygons or simple polygons as the container; we require the triangles…

Let $n$, $r$, $k_1,\ldots,k_r$ and $t$ be positive integers with $r\geq 2$, and $\mathcal{F}_i\ (1\leq i\leq r)$ a family of $k_i$-subsets of an $n$-set $V$. The families $\mathcal{F}_1,\ \mathcal{F}_2,\ldots,\mathcal{F}_r$ are said to be…

We consider real polynomial systems $f=g=0$ in two variables where $f$ has $t\geq 3$ monomial terms and $g$ has $3$ monomials terms. We prove that the number of positive isolated solutions of such a system does not exceed $3\cdot 2^{t-2} -…
