Four-Color Theorem has secret in its logical proof and actual operating. In this paper we will give a proof of Four-Color Theorem based on Kuratowski's Theorem using some induction argument and give a description of the most complicated…

We prove a common strengthening of B\'ar\'any's colorful Carath\'eodory theorem and the KKMS theorem. In fact, our main result is a colorful polytopal KKMS theorem, which extends a colorful KKMS theorem due to Shih and Lee [Math. Ann. 296…

The coloured Tverberg theorem was conjectured by B\'ar\'any, Lov\'{a}sz and F\"uredi and asks whether for any d+1 sets (considered as colour classes) of k points each in R^d there is a partition of them into k colourful sets whose convex…

The colorful Helly theorem and Tverberg's theorem are fundamental results in discrete geometry. We prove a theorem which interpolates between the two. In particular, we show the following for any integers $d \geq m \geq 1$ and $k$ a prime…

We prove that for any planar convex body C there is a positive integer m with the property that any finite point set P in the plane can be three-colored such that there is no translate of C containing at least m points of P, all of the same…

Carath\'eodory's, Helly's and Radon's theorems are three basic results in discrete geometry. Their max-plus counterparts have been proved by various authors. In this paper, more advanced results in discrete geometry are shown to have also…

In this paper we verify a conjecture by Kozlov (Discrete Comput Geom 18 (1997) 421--431), which describes the convex hull of the set of face vectors of $r$-colorable complexes on $n$ vertices. As part of the proof we derive a generalization…

The Dense Hindman's Theorem states that, in any finite coloring of the integers, one may find a single color and a "dense" set $B_1$, for each $b_1\in B_1$ a "dense" set $B_2^{b_1}$ (depending on $b_1$), for each $b_2\in B_2^{b_1}$ a…

Hindman proved in 1979 that no matter how natural numbers are colored in r colors, for a fixed positive integer r, there is an infinite subset X of numbers and a color t such that for any finite non-empty subset X' of X, the color of the…

The colorful Carath\'eodory theorem, proved by B\'ar\'any in 1982, states that given d+1 sets of points S_1,...,S_{d+1} in R^d, with each S_i containing 0 in its convex hull, there exists a subset T of the union of the S_i's containing 0 in…

Recently geometric hypergraphs that can be defined by intersections of pseudohalfplanes with a finite point set were defined in a purely combinatorial way. This led to extensions of earlier results about points and halfplanes to…

We prove the following Helly-type result. Let $\mathcal{C}_1,\dots,\mathcal{C}_{3d}$ be finite families of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Assume that for any colorful selection of $2d$ sets, $C_{i_k}\in \mathcal{C}_{i_k}$ for each $1\leq…

In this paper we study the behavior of the circumradius with respect to the Minkowski addition in generalized Minkowski spaces. To do so, we solve additive colourful Carath\'eodory type results, under certain equilibria conditions.

Minkowski's Theorem asserts that every centered measure on the sphere which is not concentrated on a great subsphere is the surface area measure of some convex body, and, moreover, the surface area measure determines a convex body uniquely.…

One widely applied sufficient condition for the existence of a colorful simplex in a vertex-colored simplicial complex is a topological extension of Hall's transversal theorem due to Aharoni, Haxell, and Meshulam. We prove a similar…

The main result of this paper is a "colored Tverberg theorem for rainbow-unavoidable complexes". This theorem may be considered as a merging of two theorems: "Tverberg theorem for collectively unavoidable complexes" and "balanced colored…

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…

We give a short, explicit proof of Hindman's Theorem that in every finite coloring of the integers, there is an infinite set all of whose finite sums have the same color. We give several exampls of colorings of the integers which do not…

George Birkhoff proved in 1912 that the number of proper colorings of a finite graph G with n colors is a polynomial in n, called the chromatic polynomial of G. Read conjectured in 1968 that for any graph G, the sequence of absolute values…

Hindman's celebrated Finite Sums Theorem, and its high-dimensional version due to Milliken and Taylor, are extended from covers of countable sets to covers of arbitrary topological spaces with Menger's classic covering property. The methods…
