De Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s proved that every noncollinear set of n points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. We suggest a possible generalization of this theorem in the framework of metric spaces and provide partial results on…
The paper is devoted to a proof of the de Bruijn-Erd\"os theorem in incidence geometry based on the Ph. Hall's marriage theorem (the theorem about the systems of distinct representatives).
A classical theorem of De Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s asserts that any noncollinear set of n points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. We prove that an analogue of this theorem holds for graphs. Restricting our attention to…

A set of $n$ points in the Euclidean plane determines at least $n$ distinct lines unless these $n$ points are collinear. In 2006, Chen and Chv\'atal asked whether the same statement holds true in general metric spaces, where the line…
A special case of a combinatorial theorem of De Bruijn and Erdos asserts that every noncollinear set of n points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. Chen and Chvatal suggested a possible generalization of this assertion in…

This paper is partly a survey of certain kinds of results and proofs in additive combinatorics, and partly a discussion of how useful the finite-dimensional Hahn-Banach theorem can be. The most interesting single result is probably a…
One of the earliest results in enumerative combinatorial geometry is the following theorem of de Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s: Every set of points $E$ in a projective plane determines at least $|E|$ lines, unless all the points are contained in a…
We give a purely combinatorial proof for the infinitary van der Waerden's theorem.
In this article we will introduce a central problem in additive combinatorics, which arised from the famous van der Waerden theorem and an early conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Tur\'{a}n. The first important theorem was due to Roth in 1953.…
We give a new proof of K\"onig's theorem and generalize the Gallai-Edmonds decomposition to balanced hypergraphs in two different ways. Based on our decompositions we give two new characterizations of balanced hypergraphs and show some…
In this study we follow a new framework for the theory that offers us, other than traditional, a new angle to observe and investigate some relations between finite sets, F-lattice L and their elements. The theory is based on the Fuzzy…
A well-known theorem of de Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s states that any set of $n$ non-collinear points in the plane determines at least $n$ lines. Chen and Chv\'{a}tal asked whether an analogous statement holds within the framework of finite…
We give a purely combinatorial proof for a two-fold generalization of van der Waerden-Brauer's theorem and Hindman's theorem. We also give tower bounds for a finite version of it.
We survey most of the known results concerning the Eisenbud-Green-Harris Conjecture. Our presentation includes new proofs of several theorems, as well as a unified treatment of many results which are otherwise scattered in the literature.…
In this note, we prove that every graph obtained from a bipartite graph by iteratively splitting vertices into two adjacent twins has the de Bruijn-Erd\H{o}s property.
We present here a simple and direct proof of the classic geometric version of Hahn-Banach Theorem from its analitic version, in the real case. The reciprocal implication, and the direct proofs of both versions, are already well kown, but…
We give geometric proofs for Grobman-Hartman theorem for diffeomorphisms and ODEs. Proofs use covering relations and cone conditions for maps and isolating segments and cone condition for ODEs. We prove also the H\"older condition for the…
This paper gives a bijective proof of Andrews' refinement of the Alladi-Schur theorem. Moreover, it demonstrates that the bijective framework introduced here can be used to reproduce and provide a bijective account of Andrews' recursive…
