We present a generalization of the marriage problem underlying Hall's famous Marriage Theorem to what we call the Symmetric Marriage Problem, a problem that can be thought of as a special case of Maximal Weighted Bipartite Matching. We show…

We consider a set-valued mapping on a simple graph and ask for the existence of a disparate selection. The term disparate is defined in the paper and we present a sufficient and necessary condition for the existence of a disparate…

We consider families of finite sets that we call shellable and that have been characterized by Chang and by Hirst and Hughes as being the families of sets that admit unique solutions to Hall's marriage problem. In this paper, we introduce a…

We formalize Hall's Marriage Theorem in the Lean theorem prover for inclusion in mathlib, which is a community-driven effort to build a unified mathematics library for Lean. One goal of the mathlib project is to contain all of the topics of…

We propose a generalization of Halls marriage theorem. The generalization given here provides a necessary sufficient condition for arranging a successful friendship among n number of k sets. We define multimatrix, multideterminant,…

In this paper we prove a generalized version of Hall's theorem for hypergraphs. More precisely, let H be a k-uniform k- partite hypergraph with some ordering on parts as V1, V2,..., Vk. such that the subhypergraph generated on union of V1,…

Let G be a finite group. Define a relation ~ on the conjugacy classes of G by setting C ~ D if there are representatives c \in C and d \in D such that cd = dc. In the case where G has a normal subgroup H such that G/H is cyclic, two…

In 1935, Philip Hall published what is often referred to as ``Hall's marriage theorem'' in a short paper (P.~Hall, On Representatives of Subsets, \textit{J. Lond. Math. Soc.} (1) \textbf{10} (1935), no.1, 26--30.) This paper has been very…

A generalized polymorphism of a predicate $P \subseteq \{0,1\}^m$ is a tuple of functions $f_1,\dots,f_m\colon \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ satisfying the following property: If $x^{(1)},\dots,x^{(m)} \in \{0,1\}^n$ are such that…

Hall's Theorem is a basic result in Combinatorics which states that the obvious necesssary condition for a finite family of sets to have a transversal is also sufficient. We present a sufficient (but not necessary) condition on the sizes of…

We study versions of Helly's theorem that guarantee that the intersection of a family of convex sets in $R^d$ has a large diameter. This includes colourful, fractional and $(p,q)$ versions of Helly's theorem. In particular, the fractional…

We consider the geometric join of a family of subsets of the Euclidean space. This is a construction frequently used in the (colorful) Carath\'eodory and Tverberg theorems, and their relatives. We conjecture that when the family has at…

We prove extensions of Halman's discrete Helly theorem for axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Halman's theorem says that, given a set $S$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, if $F$ is a finite family of axis-parallel boxes such that the intersection of…

We prove the following variant of Helly's classical theorem for Hamming balls with a bounded radius. For $n>t$ and any (finite or infinite) set $X$, if in a family of Hamming balls of radius $t$ in $X^n$, every subfamily of at most…

We prove that if $(X, B+\mathbf{M})$ is a generalized klt pair with $K_X+B+\mathbf{M}_X$ nef and abundant, then $K_X+B+\mathbf{M}_X$ is semiample. More generally, we prove a generalized basepoint free theorem for generalized klt pairs.

We prove the following statement. Let $f\in\mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$, for some $d\ge 3$, and assume that $f$ depends non-trivially in each of $x_1,\ldots,x_d$. Then one of the following holds. (i) For every finite sets…
