Given a graph $H$, the extremal number $\mathrm{ex}(n,H)$ is the largest number of edges in an $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices. We make progress on a number of conjectures about the extremal number of bipartite graphs. First, writing…

It is proved that \[ \sum_{\chi \bmod q}N(\sigma , T, \chi) \lesssim_{\epsilon} (qT)^{7(1-\sigma)/3+\epsilon}, \] where $N(\sigma, T, \chi)$ denote the number of zeros $\rho = \beta + it$ of $L(s, \chi)$ in the rectangle $\sigma \leq \beta…

In this short note, we derive an upper-bound for the sum of two comparison functions, namely for the sum of a class K and an extended class K function. To the best of our knowledge, the relations derived in this note have not been…

We obtain a first non-trivial estimate for the sum of dilates problem in the case of groups of prime order, by showing that if $t$ is an integer different from $0, 1$ or -1 and if $\A \subset \Zp$ is not too large (with respect to $p$),…

Let $t\geq 1$, let $A$ and $B$ be finite, nonempty subsets of an abelian group $G$, and let $A\pp{i} B$ denote all the elements $c$ with at least $i$ representations of the form $c=a+b$, with $a\in A$ and $b\in B$. For $|A|, |B|\geq t$, we…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a union-closed family of sets with universe $\bigcup_{A \in \mathcal{A}}A = [n] = \{1,\cdots,n\}$ and length $\ell$. We prove that $|\mathcal{A}| \leq \sum_{i=0}^{\ell} \binom{n}{i}$, with equality if and only if…

Let $r,h\in\mathbb{N}$ with $r\geq 7$ and let $F(x,y)\in \mathbb{Z}[x ,y]$ be a binary form such that \[ F(x , y) =(\alpha x + \beta y)^r -(\gamma x + \delta y)^r, \] where $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ and $\delta$ are algebraic constants…

If $A$ and $B$ are subsets of an abelian group, their sumset is $A+B:=\{a+b:a\in A, b\in B\}$. We study sumsets in discrete abelian groups, where at least one summand has positive upper Banach density. Renling Jin proved that if $A$ and $B$…

We study parabolic operators H = $\partial$t -- div $\lambda$,x A(x, t)$\nabla$ $\lambda$,x in the parabolic upper half space R n+2 + = {($\lambda$, x, t) : $\lambda$ > 0}. We assume that the coefficients are real, bounded, measurable,…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…

We expand Conlon's random algebraic construction to show that for any odd number $k \geq 3$ exists a natural number $c_k$ (the same as Conlon's) such that $\operatorname{ex}(n^a,n,\theta_{k,c_k}) = \Omega_{k,a}((n^{1 + a})^{\frac{k +…

The bondage number $b(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the smallest number of edges whose removal from $G$ results in a graph with larger domination number. Recently Gagarin and Zverovich showed that, for a graph $G$ with maximum degree $\Delta(G)$…

Additive combinatorics asks for lower bounds on sumsets and restricted sumsets over finite fields. Central examples are the Cauchy-Davenport theorem and the Erd\H{o}s-Heilbronn conjecture. In this note, we develop Das's linear algebraic…

We introduce the discrete poly-Laplace operator on a subgraph with Dirichlet boundary condition. We obtain upper and lower bounds for the sum of the first $k$ Dirichlet eigenvalues of the poly-Laplace operators on a finite subgraph of…

The Lagrangian density of an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is $r!$ multiplying the supremum of the Lagrangians of all $H$-free $r$-uniform hypergraphs. For an $r$-uniform graph $H$ with $t$ vertices, it is clear that $\pi_{\lambda}(H)\ge…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\nu^{(m)}(H)$ denote the maximum size of a set $S$ of edges of $H$ whose pairwise intersection has size less than $m$. Let $\tau^{(m)}(H)$ denote the minimum size of a set $S$ of $m$-sets of $V(H)$…

Suppose that c is a linear operator acting on an n-dimensional complex Hilbert Space H, and let tau denote the normalized trace on B(H). Set b_1 = (c+c*)/2 and b_2 = (c-c*)/2i, and write B for the the spectral scale of {b_1, b_2} with…

In this paper, we consider the system $-\Delta u =\lambda (v+1)^p,\;\;-\Delta v = \gamma (u+1)^\theta$ on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with the Dirichlet boundary condition $u=v=0$ on $\partial \Omega.$ Here $…

Given a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p^n$, what conditions does one need to guarantee that iterated sumsets of the form $A+\cdots+A$ expand quickly (say, within $O(p)$ terms) to the whole space? When only the size of $A$ is known, such…

By employing the assessment of the asymptotic size of various sums of G\'{a}l studied by La Bret\`eche and Tenenbaum, we provide an improvement on the recent result of A. Bondarenko, P. Darbar, M. V. Hagen, W. Heap, and K. Seip regarding…
