Let $r$ be a positive integer, and let $A$ be a nonempty finite set of at least two integers. We let $\tilde{C}_r(A)$ denote the {\em asymptotic $r$-covering number} of $A$, that is, the smallest integer value of $l$ for which, for all…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $ C$ such that for every $ n \geq 2 $ and $ N\geq 10^n, $ there exists a polytope $ P_{n,N} \subset \mathbb{R}^n $ with at most $ N $ facets that satisfies…

We prove that a sumset of a TE subset of (\N) (these sets can be viewed as "aperiodic" sets) with a set of positive upper density intersects a set of values of any polynomial with integer coefficients., i.e. for any (A \subset \N ) a TE…

We relate the maximum semidefinite and linear extension complexity of a family of polytopes to the cardinality of this family and the minimum pairwise Hausdorff distance of its members. This result directly implies a known lower bound on…

Given a nonempty finite multiset $S$ of positive integers, we wish to find a partially ordered set $P$ of minimal cardinality such that the multiset of cardinalities of all maximal chains in $P$ equals $S$. This paper establishes upper and…

Let $p(x)=a_0 + a_1 x + \ldots + a_n x^n$ be a polynomial with all roots real and satisfying $x \leq -\delta$ for some $0<\delta <1$. We show that for any $0 < \epsilon <1$, the value of $p(1)$ is determined within relative error $\epsilon$…

Let F be a family of subsets of an n-element set not containing four distinct members such that A union B is contained in C intersect D. It is proved that the maximum size of F under this condition is equal to the sum of the two largest…

We study alternating minimization for matrix completion in the simplest possible setting: completing a rank-one matrix from a revealed subset of the entries. We bound the asymptotic convergence rate by the variational characterization of…

Finding a stable matching is one of the central problems in algorithmic game theory. If participants are allowed to have ties and incomplete preferences, computing a stable matching of maximum cardinality is known to be NP-hard. In this…

For a fixed integer base $b\geq2$, we consider the number of compositions of $1$ into a given number of powers of $b$ and, related, the maximum number of representations a positive integer can have as an ordered sum of powers of $b$. We…

In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…

We show that 1. for every $A\subseteq \{0, 1\}^n$, there exists a polytope $P\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ with $P \cap \{0, 1\}^n = A$ and extension complexity $O(2^{n/2})$, 2. there exists an $A\subseteq \{0, 1\}^n$ such that the extension…

In this paper, we recast a special case of Mahler'c conjecture by the maximum value of box splines. This is the case of polytopes with at most $2n+2$ facets. An asymptotic formula for univariate box splines is given. Based on the formula,…

Connected components of real algebraic varieties invariant under the $CB_{n}$-Coxeter group are investigated. In particular, we consider their maximal number and their geometric and topological properties. This provides a decomposition for…

We show that there exists a family of Knapsack polytopes such that, for each polytope P from this family and each {\epsilon} > 0, any {\epsilon}-approximated formulation of P in the original space R^n requires a number of inequalities that…

In this work is presented a study on matrix biorthogonal polynomials sequences that satisfy a nonsymmetric recurrence relation with unbounded coefficients. The ratio asymptotic for this family of matrix biorthogonal polynomials is derived…

Graded posets frequently arise throughout combinatorics, where it is natural to try to count the number of elements of a fixed rank. These counting problems are often $\#\textbf{P}$-complete, so we consider approximation algorithms for…

The confluent binomial posets with the atomic function A(n) = max (1,2^(n-2)) are classified. In particular, it is shown that in general there are non-isomorphic intervals of the same length.

We show that all stack-sorting polytopes are simplices. Furthermore, we show that the stack-sorting polytopes generated from $Ln1$ permutations have relative volume 1. We establish an upper bound for the number of lattice points in a…

This work revolves around the two following questions: Given a convex body $C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a positive integer $k$ and a finite set $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ (or a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$), how many homothets of $C$…
