We introduce a group naturally acting on aperiodic necklaces of length $n$ with two colours using the 1--1 correspondences between aperiodic necklaces and irreducible polynomials over the field $\F_2$ of two elements. We notice that this…
We conclude an investigation of Abrishami, Esperet, Giocanti, Hamman, Knappe and M\"oller studying the existence of periodic colourings of locally finite graphs. A colouring of a graph $\Gamma$ is periodic if the resulting coloured graph…
We first consider the following problem. We are given a fixed perfect matching $M$ of $[n]$ and we add random edges one at a time until there is a Hamilton cycle containing $M$. We show that w.h.p. the hitting time for this event is the…
We provide obstructions on the cycle structure of inner automorphisms of finite indecomposable racks and quandles and verify some cases of a conjecture by C. Hayashi.
The investigation of colour symmetries for periodic and aperiodic systems consists of two steps. The first concerns the computation of the possible numbers of colours and is mainly combinatorial in nature. The second is algebraic and…
We classify the trees on $n$ vertices with the maximum and the minimum number of certain generalized colorings, including conflict-free, odd, non-monochromatic, star, and star rainbow vertex colorings. We also extend a result of Cutler and…
We give a construction of a large first-order definable family of subrings of finitely generated fields $K$ of any characteristic. We deduce that for any such $K$ there exists a first-order sentence $\varphi_K$ characterising $K$ in the…
We prove an arithmetic analog of the induced graph removal lemma for complexity 1 patterns over finite fields. Informally speaking, we show that given a fixed collection of $r$-colored complexity 1 arithmetic patterns over $\mathbb F_q$,…
We give a combinatorial characterization of generic frameworks that are minimally rigid under the additional constraint of maintaining symmetry with respect to a finite order rotation or a reflection. To establish these results we develop a…
We provide new deterministic algorithms for the edge coloring problem, which is one of the classic and highly studied distributed local symmetry breaking problems. As our main result, we show that a $(2\Delta-1)$-edge coloring can be…
We classify the homogeneous finite-dimensional permutation structures, i.e., homogeneous structures in a language of finitely many linear orders, giving a nearly complete answer to a question of Cameron, and confirming the classification…
We study representations of wreath product analogues of categories of finite sets. This includes the category of finite sets and injections (studied by Church, Ellenberg, and Farb) and the opposite of the category of finite sets and…
We show how to adjust a very nice coupling argument due to McDiarmid in order to prove/reprove in a novel way results concerning Hamilton cycles in various models of random graph and hypergraphs. In particular, we firstly show that for…
We introduce classes of edge-colourings of the complete graph -- that we call nice and beautiful -- and study how many heterochromatic spanning trees appear under such colourings. We prove that if the colouring is nice, there is at least a…
Each hereditary property can be characterized by its set of minimal obstructions; these sets are often unknown, or known but infinite. By allowing extra structure it is sometimes possible to describe such properties by a finite set of…
Motivated by a recent work on a preconditioned MINRES for flipped linear systems in imaging, in this note we extend the scope of that research for including more precise boundary conditions such as reflective and anti-reflective ones. We…
Geometric representations of cycles in quandle homology theory are given in terms of colored knot diagrams. Abstract knot diagrams are generalized to diagrams with exceptional points which, when colored, correspond to degenerate cycles.…
The main result provide a common generalization for Ramsey-type theorems concerning finite colorings of edge sets of complete graphs with vertices in infinite semigroups. We capture the essence of theorems proved in different fields: for…
Let $K_{n}^{c}$ denote a complete graph on $n$ vertices whose edges are colored in an arbitrary way. Let $\Delta^{\mathrm{mon}} (K_{n}^{c})$ denote the maximum number of edges of the same color incident with a vertex of $K_{n}^{c}$. A…
We study a new variant of \emph{connected coloring} of graphs based on the concept of \emph{strong} edge coloring (every color class forms an \emph{induced} matching). In particular, an edge-colored path is \emph{strongly proper} if its…
