Combinatorial properties of zeons have been applied to graph enumeration problems, graph colorings, routing problems in communication networks, partition-dependent stochastic integrals, and Boolean satisfiability. Power series of elementary…

In this paper we study combinatorial and algorithmic resp. complexity questions of upper domination, i.e., the maximum cardinality of a minimal dominating set in a graph. We give a full classification of the related maximisation and…

We develop three approaches of combinatorial flavour to study the structure of minimal codes and cutting blocking sets in finite geometry, each of which has a particular application. The first approach uses techniques from algebraic…

We establish the existence of free energy limits for several combinatorial models on Erd\"{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graph $\mathbb {G}(N,\lfloor cN\rfloor)$ and random $r$-regular graph $\mathbb {G}(N,r)$. For a variety of models, including…

Hilbert's Nullstellensatz is a fundamental result in algebraic geometry that gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite collection of multivariate polynomials to have a common zero in an algebraically closed field. Associated…

P\'olya's Positivstellensatz on the $1$-simplex says that if $P(x)$ is a real polynomial such that $P(x)>0$ whenever $x \ge 0$, then all the coefficients of $(1+x)^mP(x)$ are positive whenever $m$ is large. Powers-Reznick gave a complexity…

We prove that any quasirandom dense large graph in which all degrees are equal and even can be decomposed into any given collection of two-factors (2-regular spanning subgraphs). A special case of this result gives a new solution to the…

For finitely generated subgroups $W_1, \ldots , W_t$ of $\mathbb{Q}^{\times}$, integers $k_1, \ldots , k_t$, a Galois extension $F$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ and a union of conjugacy classes $C \subset \text{Gal}(F/\mathbb{Q})$, we develop methods…

We prove a complexity dichotomy theorem for Holant Problems on 3-regular graphs with an arbitrary complex-valued edge function. Three new techniques are introduced: (1) higher dimensional iterations in interpolation; (2) Eigenvalue Shifted…

For a finite set $\cal F$ of polynomials over fixed finite prime field of size $p$ containing all polynomials $x^2 - x$ a Nullstellensatz proof of the unsolvability of the system $$ f = 0\ ,\ \mbox{ all } f \in {\cal F} $$ in the field is a…

We study zeros of polynomials in the multivariate skew polynomial ring $D[x_1,\ldots,x_n; \sigma]$, where $\sigma$ is an automorphism of a division ring $D$. We prove a generalization of Alon's celebrated Combinatorial Nullstellensatz for…

Recently, several mathematicians have investigated various partition functions with the goal of discovering Ramanujan-type congruences. One such function is $\overline{B}_{2^\alpha}(n)$, which represents the number of $2^\alpha-$regular…

The "openness" of a complex polynomial mapping is discussed and applied to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. In this category fall proofs of S. Wolfenstein, R.L. Thompson, J. Milnor, and S. Reich-S. Smale. These proofs take into account…

In this work, we study the generalized sorting problem, where we are given a set of $n$ elements to be sorted, but only a subset of all possible pairwise element comparisons is allowed. We look at the problem from the perspective of the…

The present paper continues our foundational work on real algebra with preordered commutative semifields and semirings. We prove two abstract Vergleichsstellens\"atze for preordered commutative semirings of polynomial growth. These…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a subset $D$ of vertex set $V$, is a dominating set of $G$ if every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to atleast one vertex of $D$. A dominating set $D$ of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices is called a paired…

We introduce a new form of the polynomial method based on what we call "shift operators," which we use to give efficient and intuitive new proofs of results previously shown using a wide range of polynomial methods, including Alon's…
