We prove a general homological stability theorem for certain families of groups equipped with product maps, followed by two theorems of a new kind that give information about the last two homology groups outside the stable range. (These…

In order to characterize the scientific output of scientists, in this paper we define the harmonic har-index whose values are positive integers. It is proved that $h \leq har \leq g$, where h is the Hirsch index and g is the Egghe index.…

In this paper we prove the following theorem: Suppose that $f_1,f_2\in H^\infty_\R(\D)$, with $\norm{f_1}_\infty,\norm{f_2}_{\infty}\leq 1$, with $$ \inf_{z\in\D}(\abs{f_1(z)}+\abs{f_2(z)})=\delta>0. $$ Assume for some $\epsilon>0$ and…

A large body of work has investigated the properties of graph neural networks and identified several limitations, particularly pertaining to their expressive power. Their inability to count certain patterns (e.g., cycles) in a graph lies at…

Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group. For given $k$ a positive integer, the $k$-Harborth constant $g^k(G)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $t$ such that given a set $S$ of elements of $G$ with size $t$ there exists a…

Let $\bk=(k_1,...,k_n)$ be a sequence of $n$ integers. For an increasing monotone graph property $\mP$ we say that a base graph $G=([n],E)$ is \emph{$\bk$-resilient} with respect to $\mP$ if for every subgraph $H\subseteq G$ such that…

The sequence $A067549$ of The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences is defined as $(a_k)_{k \geq 1}$ with $a_k$ being the determinant of the $k \times k$ matrix whose diagonal contains the first $k$ prime numbers and all other elements…

Let J be a strongly stable monomial ideal in P=k[X0,...,Xn] and let BSt(J) be the family of all the homogeneous ideals in P such that the set N(J) of all the monomials that do not belong to J is a k-vector basis of the quotient P/I. We show…

A difference basis with respect to $n$ is a subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}$ such that $A - A \supseteq \{1, \ldots, n\}$. R\'{e}dei and R\'{e}nyi showed that the minimum size of a difference basis with respect to $n$ is $(c+o(1))\sqrt{n}$…

In FOCS 2017, Borradaille, Le, and Wulff-Nilsen addressed a long-standing open problem by proving that minor-free graphs have light spanners. Specifically, they proved that every $K_h$-minor-free graph has a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner of…

For a finite abelian group $G$ and positive integers $m$ and $h$, we let $$\rho(G, m, h) = \min \{|hA| \; : \; A \subseteq G, |A|=m\}$$ and $$\rho_{\pm} (G, m, h) = \min \{|h_{\pm} A| \; : \; A \subseteq G, |A|=m\},$$ where $hA$ and…

For a finite abelian group $(G,+, 0)$ the Harborth constant $\mathsf{g}(G)$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that each squarefree sequence over $G$ of length $k$, equivalently each subset of $G$ of cardinality at least $k$, has a…

The Hawkes process models self-exciting event streams, requiring a strictly non-negative and stable stochastic intensity. Standard identification methods enforce these properties using non-negative causal bases, yielding conservative…

A k-gap is a finite k-sequence of pairwise disjoint monotone families of infinite subsets of N mixed in such a way that we cannot find a partition of N such that each family is trival on one piece of the partition. We prove that, relative…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\delta_1(H)$ denote the minimum vertex degree of $H$, and $\nu(H)$ denote the size of the largest matching in $H$. In this paper, we show that for any $k\geq 3$ and $\beta>0$, there exists an integer…

We consider a model for explainable AI in which an explanation for a prediction $h(x)=y$ consists of a subset $S'$ of the training data (if it exists) such that all classifiers $h' \in H$ that make at most $b$ mistakes on $S'$ predict…

We show that for every positive integer $k$ there are positive constants $C$ and $c$ such that if $A$ is a subset of $\{1, 2, \dots, n\}$ of size at least $C n^{1/k}$, then, for some $d \leq k-1$, the set of subset sums of $A$ contains a…

This paper gives a numerically stable method to compute H-basis which is based on the computing a minimal basis for the module of syzygies using singular value decomposition. We illustrate the performance of this method by means of various…

The set A = {a_n} of nonnegative integers is an asymptotic basis of order h if every sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of h elements of A. If a_n ~ alpha n^h for some real number alpha > 0, then alpha is called an…
