Let $(W,H,\mu)$ be the classical Wiener space, assume that $U=I_W+u$ is an adapted perturbation of identity where the perturbation $u$ is an equivalence class w.r.to the Wiener measure. We study several necessary and sufficient conditions…

We propose the following conjecture: For every fixed $\alpha\in [0,\frac 13)$, each graph of minimum degree at least $(1+\alpha)\frac k2$ and maximum degree at least $2(1-\alpha)k$ contains each tree with $k$ edges as a subgraph. Our main…

We develop a new approach to the classical problem on isotopy classification of embeddings of manifolds into Euclidean spaces. This approach involves studying of a new embedding invariant, of almost-embeddings and of smoothing, as well as…

Let STS(n) denote the number of Steiner triple systems on n vertices, and let F(n) denote the number of 1-factorizations of the complete graph on n vertices. We prove the following upper bound. STS(n) <= ((1 + o(1)) (n/e^2))^(n^2/6) F(n) <=…

Three-dimensional long-range ordered structures in smaller and near-spherically symmetric Coulomb crystals of ^{40}Ca^+ ions confined in a linear rf Paul trap have been observed when the number of ions exceeds ~1000 ions. This result is…

Introduced by Erd\H{o}s in 1950, a covering system of the integers is a finite collection of arithmetic progressions whose union is the set $\mathbb{Z}$. Many beautiful questions and conjectures about covering systems have been posed over…

Bi-spinor and G-structure methods are used to classify the possible consistent truncations of type II supergravity to $d=6$ Einstein-Maxwell (gauged) supergravity, and its consistent sub-sectors. In the absence of R-symmetry gauging and a…

This article aims to provide exponential lower bounds on the number of non-isomorphic $k$-gonal biembeddings of the complete multipartite graph into orientable surfaces. For this purpose, we use the concept, introduced by Archdeacon in…

We call an order type inscribable if it is realized by a point configuration where the extreme points are all on a circle. In this paper, we investigate inscribability of order types. We first show that every simple order type with at most…

In this paper, we introduce and develop the circle embedding method. This method hinges essentially on a combinatorial-geometric structure which we choose to call circles of partition. We provide applications in the context of problems that…

The random greedy algorithm for constructing a large partial Steiner-Triple-System is defined as follows. We begin with a complete graph on $n$ vertices and proceed to remove the edges of triangles one at a time, where each triangle removed…

Motivated by recent work on ordinal embedding (Kleindessner and von Luxburg, 2014), we derive large sample consistency results and rates of convergence for the problem of embedding points based on triple or quadruple distance comparisons.…

We define combinatorially a partial order on the set partitions and show that it is equivalent to the Bruhat-Chevalley-Renner order on the upper triangular matrices. By considering subposets consisting of set partitions with a fixed number…

We show that no torus knot of type $(2,n)$, $n>3$ odd, can be obtained from a polynomial embedding $t \mapsto (f(t), g(t), h(t))$ where $(\deg(f),\deg(g))\leq (3,n+1) $. Eventually, we give explicit examples with minimal lexicographic…

We consider ordered pairs $(X,\mathcal{B})$ where $X$ is a finite set of size $v$ and $\mathcal{B}$ is some collection of $k$-element subsets of $X$ such that every $t$-element subset of $X$ is contained in exactly $\lambda$ "blocks" $B\in…

We study the maximum size of a set system on $n$ elements whose trace on any $b$ elements has size at most $k$. We show that if for some $b \ge i \ge 0$ the shatter function $f_R$ of a set system $([n],R)$ satisfies $f_R(b) < 2^i(b-i+1)$…
