A partition of $n$ is called a $t$-core partition if none of its hook number is divisible by $t.$ In 2019, Hirschhorn and Sellers \cite{Hirs2019} obtained a parity result for $3$-core partition function $a_3(n)$. Motivated by this result,…
A set partition technique that is useful for identifying wires in cables can be recast in the language of 0--1 matrices, thereby resolving an open problem stated by R.~L. Graham in Volume 1 of this journal. The proof involves a construction…
A classical open problem in combinatorial geometry is to obtain tight asymptotic bounds on the maximum number of k-level vertices in an arrangement of n hyperplanes in d dimensions (vertices with exactly k of the hyperplanes passing below…
We analytically explore the scaling properties of a general class of nested subgraphs in complex networks, which includes the $K$-core and the $K$-scaffold, among others. We name such class of subgraphs $K$-nested subgraphs due to the fact…
Given an initial family of sets, we may take unions, intersections and complements of the sets contained in this family in order to form a new collection of sets; our construction process is done recursively until we obtain the last family.…
Kneser-Haken Finiteness asserts that for each compact 3-manifold M there is an integer c(M) such that any collection of k>c(M) closed, essential, 2-sided surfaces in M must contain parallel elements. We show here that if M is closed then…
Given a metric space $(X,d)$, a set $S\subseteq X$ is called a $k$-\emph{metric generator} for $X$ if any pair of different points of $X$ is distinguished by at least $k$ elements of $S$. A $k$-\emph{metric basis} is a $k$-metric generator…
The Sequential Multiple Knapsack Problem is a special case of Multiple knapsack problem in which the items sizes are divisible. A characterization of the optimal solutions of the problem and a description of the convex hull of all the…
In the classical best approximation pair (BAP) problem, one is given two nonempty, closed, convex and disjoint subsets in a finite- or an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, and the goal is to find a pair of points, each from each subset,…
A family of general Master theorems for analytic integration over the real (or imaginary) axis with various reciprocal hyperbolic (trig) kernels ($\sinh and/or \cosh$) with varying arguments is developed. Several examples involving…
Classification and invariants, with respect to basis changes, of finite dimensional algebras are considered. An invariant open, dense (in the Zariscki topology) subset of the space of structural constants is defined. The algebras with…
Motivated by questions about the typical sizes of gaps $|f(n+1)-f(n)|$ in the sequence $(f(n))_n$, where $f$ is an integer-valued multiplicative function, we investigate the set of solutions $$ \{n \in \mathbb{N} : f(n+a) = f(n) + b\},…
We introduce and study the Separation Problem for infinite graphs, which involves determining whether a connected graph splits into at least two infinite connected components after the removal of a given finite set of edges. We prove that…
For $s=3,4$, we prove the existence of arbitrarily long sequences of consecutive integers none of which is a sum of $s$ nonnegative $s$-th powers. More generally, we study the existence of gaps between the values $\leq N$ of diagonal forms…
Motivated by a question of S\'ark\"ozy, we study the gaps in the product sequence $\B=\A ... \A=\{b_n=a_ia_j, a_i,a_j\in \A\}$ when $\A$ has upper Banach density $\alpha>0$. We prove that there are infinitely many gaps $b_{n+1}-b_n\ll…
The independence polynomial of a graph $G$ is the generating polynomial corresponding to its independent sets of different sizes. More formally, if $a_k(G)$ denotes the number of independent sets of $G$ of size $k$ then \[I(G,z) \as…
It is a classical result that any complex analytic Lie supergroup $\mathcal{G}$ is split \cite{kosz}, that is its structure sheaf is isomorphic to the structure sheaf of a certain vector bundle. However, there do exist non-split complex…
Finding k disjoint paths (kDP) is a fundamental problem in graph analysis. For vertices s and t, paths from s to t are said to be disjoint if any two of them share no common vertex except s and t. In practice, disjoint paths are widely…
Reidl, S\'anchez Villaamil, and Stravopoulos (2019) characterized graph classes of bounded expansion as follows: A class $\mathcal{C}$ closed under subgraphs has bounded expansion if and only if there exists a function $f:\mathbb{N} \to…
This note is purely expository. In the course of the Kolmogorov-Arnold solution of Hilbert's 13th problem on superpositions there appeared the notion of basic embedding. A subset K of R^2 is basic if for each continuous function f:K->R…
