We construct two new infinite families of trace codes of dimension $2m$, over the ring $\mathbb{F}_p+u\mathbb{F}_p,$ when $p$ is an odd prime. They have the algebraic structure of abelian codes. Their Lee weight distribution is computed by…

Several recent papers have considered the problem of how large a subset of integers can be without containing any 3-term geometric progressions. This problem has also recently been generalized to rings of integers in quadratic number fields…

We prove geometric Ramsey-type statements on collections of lines in 3-space. These statements give guarantees on the size of a clique or an independent set in (hyper)graphs induced by incidence relations between lines, points, and reguli…

Let $A\subset\left\{ 1,\dots,N\right\} $ be a set of prime numbers containing no non-trivial arithmetic progressions. Suppose that $A$ has relative density $\alpha=|A|/\pi(N)$, where $\pi(N)$ denotes the number of primes in the set $\left\{…

The d-dimensional Catalan numbers form a well-known sequence of numbers which count balanced bracket expressions over an alphabet of size d. In this paper, we introduce and study what we call d-dimensional prime Catalan numbers, a sequence…

We prove that if $A$ is a subset of those primes which are congruent to $1 \pmod{3}$ such that the relative density of $A$ in this residue class is larger than $\frac{1}{2},$ then every sufficiently large odd integer $n$ which satisfies $n…

We consider the edge-triangle model (or Strauss model), and focus on the asymptotic behavior of the triangle density when the size of the graph increases to infinity. This random graph belongs to the class of exponential random graphs,…

An open-locating-dominating set (OLD-set) is a subset of vertices of a graph such that every vertex in the graph has at least one neighbor in the set and no two vertices in the graph have the same set of neighbors in the set. This is an…

Let $(X, \mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ be an ergodic measure preserving system, $A \in \mathcal{B}$ and $\epsilon>0$. We study the largeness of sets of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{split} S = \left\{ n\in\mathbb{N}\colon\mu(A\cap…

Let $N_{\triangle}(G)$ be the number of triangles in a graph $G$. In [14] and [25] (respectively) the following bounds were proved on the lower tail behaviour of triangle counts in the dense Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs $G_m\sim G(n,m)$:…

Analogues of Ramsey's Theorem for infinite structures such as the rationals or the Rado graph have been known for some time. In this context, one looks for optimal bounds, called degrees, for the number of colors in an isomorphic…

We give an optimal version of the classical ``three-gap theorem'' on the fractional parts of $n \theta$, in the case where $\theta$ is an irrational number that is badly approximable. As a consequence, we deduce a version of Kronecker's…

We prove that for every odd $q\geq 3$, any $q$-query binary, possibly non-linear locally decodable code ($q$-LDC) $E:\{\pm1\}^k \rightarrow \{\pm1\}^n$ must satisfy $k \leq \tilde{O}(n^{1-2/q})$. For even $q$, this bound was established in…

We apply ideas from the theory of limits of dense combinatorial structures to study order types, which are combinatorial encodings of finite point sets. Using flag algebras we obtain new numerical results on the Erd\H{o}s problem of finding…

Let A be a pre-defined set of rational numbers. We say a set of natural numbers S is an A-quotient-free set if no ratio of two elements in S belongs to A. We find the maximal asymptotic density and the maximal upper asymptotic density of…

We perform a rigorous study of the Gibbs statistics of high-density hard-core random configurations on a unit triangular lattice $\mathbb{A}_2$ and a unit honeycomb graph $\mathbb{H}_2$, for any value of the (Euclidean) repulsion diameter…

We consider random lattice triangulations of $n\times k$ rectangular regions with weight $\lambda^{|\sigma|}$ where $\lambda>0$ is a parameter and $|\sigma|$ denotes the total edge length of the triangulation. When $\lambda\in(0,1)$ and $k$…

Building on previous work of the author, for each finite triangle-free graph $\mathbf{G}$, we determine the equivalence relation on the copies of $\mathbf{G}$ inside the universal homogeneous triangle-free graph, $\mathcal{H}_3$, with the…

We classify perimeter dominant triangles whose side lengths are in $\sqrt3\mathbb N$ and whose area is in $\frac{\sqrt3}4\mathbb N$. There is one exceptional example, which is equilateral, and three infinite families determined by certain…

Let $m(n,r)$ denote the minimal number of edges in an $n$-uniform hypergraph which is not $r$-colorable. For the broad history of the problem see [RaiSh]. It is known that for a fixed $n$ the sequence \[ \frac{m(n,r)}{r^n} \] has a limit.…
