An old and well-known conjecture of Frankl and F\"{u}redi states that the Lagrangian of an $r$-uniform hypergraph with $m$ edges is maximised by an initial segment of colex. In this paper we disprove this conjecture by finding an infinite…

We study a finite-field analogue of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem under the Hamming metric. For a set \(S\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n\) let $\Delta(S)$ denote the set of Hamming distances determined by \(S\). We prove the lower bound…

We study the model of random permutations of $n$ objects with polynomially growing cycle weights, which was recently considered by Ercolani and Ueltschi, among others. Using saddle-point analysis, we prove that the total variation distance…

The theory of limits of permutations leads to limit objects called permutons, which are certain Borel measures on the unit square. We prove that permutons avoiding a given permutation of order $k$ have a particularly simple structure.…

The classical Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem on the size of an intersecting family of $k$-subsets of the set $[n] = \{1, 2, \dots, n\}$ is one of the fundamental intersection theorems for set systems. After the establishment of the EKR theorem,…

The K{\L}R conjecture of Kohayakawa, {\L}uczak, and R\"odl is a statement that allows one to prove that asymptotically almost surely all subgraphs of the random graph G_{n,p}, for sufficiently large p : = p(n), satisfy an embedding lemma…

This paper presents an exposition of Rio's proof of the strong law of large numbers and extends his method to random fields. In addition to considering the rate of convergence in the Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund strong law of large numbers, we go…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $r\geq 1$. Suppose that $\alpha$ is a $p$-adic integer with $\alpha\equiv2a\pmod p$ for some $1\leq a<(p+r)/(2r+1)$. We confirm a conjecture of Sun and prove that…

We study the bias of random bounded-degree polynomials over odd prime fields and show that, with probability exponentially close to 1, such polynomials have exponentially small bias. This also yields an exponential tail bound on the weight…

In this paper we use the strength of the constraint method in combination with a generalized Borsuk-Ulam type theorem and a cohomological intersection lemma to show how one can obtain many new topological transversal theorems of Tverberg…

Let $X_1,X_2, \ldots $ be independent random uniform points in a bounded domain $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with smooth boundary. Define the coverage threshold $R_n$ to be the smallest $r$ such that $A$ is covered by the balls of radius $r$…

Inspired by the results of Baik, Deift and Johansson on the limiting distribution of the lengths of the longest increasing subsequences in random permutations, we find those limiting distributions for pattern-restricted permutations in…

We prove a quantitative version of the bound on the smallest singular value of a Bernoulli covariance matrix (due to Bai and Yin). Then we use this bound, together with several recent developments, to show that the distance from a random…

We study the generalized Tur\'an problem regarding cliques with restricted intersections, which highlights the motivation from extremal set theory. Let $L=\{\ell_1,\dots,\ell_s\}\subset [0,r-1]$ be a fixed integer set with $|L|\notin…

We show that Lang's conjecture on error terms in Diophantine approximation implies Honda's conjecture on ranks of elliptic curves over number fields. We also show that even a very weak version of Lang's error term conjecture would be enough…

In this paper, we prove that with high probability, random Reed-Solomon codes approach the half-Singleton bound - the optimal rate versus error tradeoff for linear insdel codes - with linear-sized alphabets. More precisely, we prove that,…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of $[n]$ and $L$ be a subset of $[n]$. We say $\mathcal{F}$ is an $L$-differencing Sperner system if $|A\setminus B|\in L$ for any distinct $A,B\in\mathcal{F}$. Let $p$ be a prime and $q$ be a power…

We prove a general likely intersections theorem, a counterpart to the Zilber-Pink conjectures, under the assumption that the Ax-Schanuel property and some mild additional conditions are known to hold for a given category of complex quotient…

We prove limit theorems for sums of randomly chosen random variables conditioned on the summands. We consider several versions of the corner growth setting, including specific cases of dependence amongst the summands and summands with heavy…

New criteria are shown that certain combinations of finite unimodal polynomials are unimodal. %Given unimodal polynomials with explicit expressions and dependent recursion relations, we propose an approach to determine their modes. As…
