For a class $\mathcal{D}$ of drawings of loopless (multi-)graphs in the plane, a drawing $D \in \mathcal{D}$ is \emph{saturated} when the addition of any edge to $D$ results in $D' \notin \mathcal{D}$ - this is analogous to saturated graphs…

Let $P(d)$ be the probability that a random 0/1-matrix of size $d \times d$ is singular, and let $E(d)$ be the expected number of 0/1-vectors in the linear subspace spanned by d-1 random independent 0/1-vectors. (So $E(d)$ is the expected…

Let $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a lattice polytope of dimension $d$. Let $b(\mathcal{P})$ denote the number of lattice points belonging to the boundary of $\mathcal{P}$ and $c(\mathcal{P})$ that to the interior of $\mathcal{P}$.…

In this paper, we consider a generalized version of the rectilinear crossing number problem of drawing complete graphs on a plane. The minimum number of crossing pairs of hyperedges in the $d$-dimensional rectilinear drawing of a…

Let $D$ be a set of positive integers. A $D$-diffsequence of length $k$ is a sequence of positive integers $a_1 < \cdots < a_k$ such that $a_{i+1}-a_i\in D$ for $i=1,\ldots,k-1$. For $D=\{2^i\mid i\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}\}$, it is known that…

An almost $k$-cover of the hypercube $Q^n = \{0,1\}^n$ is a collection of hyperplanes that avoids the origin and covers every other vertex at least $k$ times. When $k$ is large with respect to the dimension $n$, Clifton and Huang…

In a seminal paper, Kannan and Lov\'asz (1988) considered a quantity $\mu_{KL}(\Lambda,K)$ which denotes the best volume-based lower bound on the covering radius $\mu(\Lambda,K)$ of a convex body $K$ with respect to a lattice $\Lambda$.…

Motivated by long-standing conjectures on the discretization of classical inequalities in the Geometry of Numbers, we investigate a new set of parameters, which we call \emph{packing minima}, associated to a convex body $K$ and a lattice…

Barker and Larman asked the following. Let $K' \subset {\Bbb{R}}^d$ be a convex body, whose interior contains a given convex body $K \subset {\Bbb{R}}^d$, and let, for all supporting hyperplanes $H$ of $K$, the $(d-1)$-volumes of the…

We say that a family ${x_i|i\in[m]}$ of vectors in a Banach space $X$ satisfies the $k$-collapsing condition if $|\sum_{i\in I}x_i|\leq 1$ for all $k$-element subsets $I\subseteq{1,2,...,m}$. Let $C(k,d)$ denote the maximum cardinality of a…

Consider an arrangement of $n$ congruent zones on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere $S^{d-1}$, where a zone is the intersection of an origin symmetric Euclidean plank with $S^{d-1}$. We prove that, for sufficiently large $n$, it is possible…

The commonly used spatial entropy $h_{r}(\mathcal{U})$ of the multi-dimensional shift space $\mathcal{U}$ is the limit of growth rate of admissible local patterns on finite rectangular sublattices which expands to whole space…

We establish new exponential in dimension lower bounds for the Maximum Halfspace Discrepancy problem, which models linear classification. Both are fundamental problems in computational geometry and machine learning in their exact and…

How many hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are needed in order to slice every edge of the $n$-dimensional hypercube with vertex set $\{\pm 1\}^n$? Here, we say that a hyperplane $H\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ slices an edge of the hypercube if it…

We show that, for any set of n points in d dimensions, there exists a hyperplane with regression depth at least ceiling(n/(d+1)). as had been conjectured by Rousseeuw and Hubert. Dually, for any arrangement of n hyperplanes in d dimensions…

In this paper, we examine covering graphs that are obtained from the $d$-dimensional integer lattice by adding pendant edges. In the case of $d=1$, we show that the Laplacian on the graph has a spectral gap and establish a necessary and…

Let $\Gamma$ be an irreducible lattice in $\PSL_2(\RR)^d$ ($d\in\NN$) and $z$ a point in the $d$-fold direct product of the upper half plane. We study the discrete set of componentwise distances ${\bf D}(\Gm,z)\subset \RR^d$ defined in (1).…

A randomized scheme that succeeds with probability $1-\delta$ (for any $\delta>0$) has been devised to construct (1) an equidistributed $\epsilon$-cover of a compact Riemannian symmetric space $\mathbb M$ of dimension $d_{\mathbb M}$ and…

We prove that if the Hausdorff dimension of $E \subset {\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 3$, is greater than $\min \left\{ \frac{dk+1}{k+1}, \frac{d+k}{2} \right\},$ then the ${k+1 \choose 2}$-dimensional Lebesgue measure of $T_k(E)$, the set of…

NOTE: Unfortunately, most of the results mentioned here were already known under the name of "d-separated interval piercing". The result that T_d(m) exists was first proved by Gya\'rfa\'s and Lehel in 1970, see [5]. Later, the result was…
