This article extends a paper of Abraham and Bonnet which generalised the famous Hausdorff characterisation of the class of scattered linear orders. Abraham and Bonnet gave a poset hierarchy that characterised the class of scattered posets…
Recently Ahmadi et al. (2021) and Tagliaferro (2022) proposed some iterative methods for the numerical solution of linear systems which, under the classical hypothesis of strict diagonal dominance, typically converge faster than the Jacobi…
In 1959, Pelczynski and Semadeni proved a theorem in which they gave some equivalent conditions for a compact Hausdorff space to be scattered. The purpose of the current note is that to clarify the meaning of the subtle term "conditionally…
We solve a well--known problem in the theory of compact scattered spaces and superatomic boolean algebras by showing that, under GCH and for each regular cardinal $\kappa \geq \omega$, there is a poset $\mathcal P_\kappa$ preserving all…
Assuming an instance of the Brodsky-Rinot proxy principle holding at a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we construct $2^\kappa$-many pairwise non-embeddable minimal non-$\sigma$-scattered linear orders of size $\kappa$. In particular,…
For which infinite cardinals $\kappa$ is there a partition of the real line $\mathbb R$ into precisely $\kappa$ Borel sets? Hausdorff famously proved that there is a partition of $\mathbb R$ into $\aleph_1$ Borel sets. But other than this,…
One of the most basic results concerning the number-theoretic properties of the partition function $p(n)$ is that $p(n)$ takes each value of parity infinitely often. This statement was first proved by Kolberg in 1959, and it was…
Let $\kappa$ be a positive real number and $m\in\mathbb{N}\cup\{\infty\}$ be given. Let $p_{\kappa, m}(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ into the parts from the Piatestki-Shapiro sequence $(\lfloor \ell^{\kappa}\rfloor)_{\ell\in…
Integer partitions have long been of interest to number theorists, perhaps most notably Ramanujan, and are related to many areas of mathematics including combinatorics, modular forms, representation theory, analysis, and mathematical…
In 1918, Hardy and Ramanujan made a breakthrough by developing the circle method to deduce an asymptotic formula for the partition function $p(n)$, which was later refined by Rademacher in 1937 to produce an absolutely convergent series…
If phi is a scattered order type, mu a cardinal, then there exists a scattered order type psi such that psi->[phi]^1_{mu,aleph_0} holds.
In this paper, we consider ordered set partitions obtained by imposing conditions on the size of the lists, and such that the first $r$ elements are in distinct blocks, respectively. We introduce a generalization of the Lah numbers. For…
Andrews, Lewis and Lovejoy introduced the partition function $PD(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n$ with designated summands. In a recent work, Lin studied a partition function $PD_{t}(n)$ which counts the number of tagged parts over…
We introduce a universal approach for applying the partition rank method, an extension of Tao's slice rank polynomial method, to tensors that are not diagonal. This is accomplished by generalizing Naslund's distinctness indicator to what we…
For a partition $\lambda \vdash n$, we let $\operatorname{pd}(\lambda)$, the parity difference of $\lambda$, be the number of odd parts of $\lambda$ minus the number of even parts of $\lambda$. We prove for $c_0\in\mathbb{R}$ an asymptotic…
In this paper, we address several Erd\H os--Ko--Rado type questions for families of partitions. Two partitions of $[n]$ are {\it $t$-intersecting} if they share at least $t$ parts, and are {\it partially $t$-intersecting} if some of their…
Building on early work by Stevo Todorcevic, we describe a theory of stationary subtrees of trees of successor-cardinal height. We define the diagonal union of subsets of a tree, as well as normal ideals on a tree, and we characterize…
The famous partition theorem of Euler states that partitions of $n$ into distinct parts are equinumerous with partitions of $n$ into odd parts. Another famous partition theorem due to MacMahon states that the number of partitions of $n$…
We look for partition theorems for large subtrees for suitable uncountable trees and colourings. We concentrate on sub-trees of $^{\kappa \ge} 2$ expanded by a well ordering of each level. Unlike earlier works, we do not ask the embedding…
We can generalize the definition of {\it splitting number } $s(\kappa )$ for $\kappa$ uncountable regular: $s(\kappa )=min\{ |\Cal S|:\Cal S\subset \Cal P(\kappa ) \forall a\in \kappa ^\kappa \exists b\in \Cal S |a\cap b|=|a\setminus…
