We introduce a family of nonnegative integer vectors - primitive vectors - defining hyperplanes of the real affine cube over $C^n:=\{-1,1\}^n$ and study their properties with respect to the rectangles of the cube. As a consequence we give a…
A family of maximally superintegrable systems containing the Coulomb atom as a special case is constructed in N-dimensional Euclidean space. Two different sets of N commuting second order operators are found, overlapping in the Hamiltonian…
This note shows that an interesting property arises when considering the relation between the hypersphere volumes at dimensions $n+1$ and $n$, if the hyperspheres circumscribe unitary hypercubes in $n+1$ and $n$ dimensions, respectively .…
According to Suk's breakthrough result on the Erdos-Szekeres problem, any point set in general position in the plane, which has no $n$ elements that form the vertex set of a convex $n$-gon, has at most $2^{n+O\left({n^{2/3}\log n}\right)}$…
We introduce three measures of complexity for families of sets. Each of the three measures, that we call dimensions, is defined in terms of the minimal number of convex subfamilies that are needed for covering the given family: for upper…
A frequency $n$-cube $F^n(q;l_0,...,l_{m-1})$ is an $n$-dimensional $q$-by-...-by-$q$ array, where $q = l_0+...+l_{m-1}$, filled by numbers $0,...,m-1$ with the property that each line contains exactly $l_i$ cells with symbol $i$, $i =…
Let $n > k > 1$ be integers, $[n] = \{1, \ldots, n\}$. Let $\mathcal F$ be a family of $k$-subsets of~$[n]$. The family $\mathcal F$ is called intersecting if $F \cap F' \neq \emptyset$ for all $F, F' \in \mathcal F$. It is called almost…
Let $Q_n$ be the $n$-dimensional Hamming cube and $N=2^n$. We prove that the number of maximal independent sets in $Q_n$ is asymptotically \[2n2^{N/4},\] as was conjectured by Ilinca and the first author in connection with a question of…
Let $n=2k+1$ be odd with $k\geq3$. In this note, we give two intersecting families with diversity larger than $\sum_{i=k+1}^{2k} \binom {2k}{i}$, which disprove a conjecture of Huang.
The central levels problem asserts that the subgraph of the $(2m+1)$-dimensional hypercube induced by all bitstrings with at least $m+1-\ell$ many 1s and at most $m+\ell$ many 1s, i.e., the vertices in the middle $2\ell$ levels, has a…
Hypercube is one of the most important networks to interconnect processors in multiprocessor computer systems. Different kinds of connectivities are important parameters to measure the fault tolerability of networks. Lin et…
We study problems on covering $[0,1)$ by shrinking intervals centered at the points $\{q_n x\}$, where $(q_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ is a given real-valued sequence and $x \in [0,1)$ is random. For real-valued lacunary sequences…
For each i = 1, ..., n constructions are given for convex bodies K and L in n-dimensional Euclidean space such that each rank i orthogonal projection of K can be translated inside the corresponding projection of L, even though K has…
Let $Q$ be an ideal (downward-closed set) in the lattice of linear subspaces of $(\mathbb F_q)^n$, ordered by inclusion. For $0 \le k \le n$, let $\mu_k(Q)$ denote the fraction of $k$-dimensional subspaces that belong to $Q$. We show that…
Let $\{e_{1},\ldots,e_{n}\}$ be the standard basis of abelian group $Z_{2}^{n}$, which can be also viewed as a linear space of dimension $n$ over the Galois filed $F_{2}$, and $\epsilon_{k}=e_k+e_{k+1}+\cdots+e_n$ for some $1\le k\le n-1$.…
Dong and Wang in [Theor. Comput. Sci. 771 (2019) 93--98] conjectured that the resulting graph of the $n$-dimensional folded hypercube $FQ_n$ by deleting any perfect matching is isomorphic to the hypercube $Q_n$. In this paper, we show that…
In this paper we introduce a new family of Bernstein-type exponential polynomials on the hypercube $[0, 1]^d$ and study their approximation properties. Such operators fix a multidimensional version of the exponential function and its…
Alon and F\"uredi (European J. Combin. 1993) gave a tight bound for the following hyperplane covering problem: find the minimum number of hyperplanes required to cover all points of the n-dimensional hypercube {0,1}^n except the origin.…
We prove three main conjectures of Berkovich and Uncu (Ann. Comb. 23 (2019) 263--284) on the inequalities between the numbers of partitions of $n$ with bounded gap between largest and smallest parts for sufficiently large $n$. Actually our…
Let M be a closed embedded minimal hypersurface in a Euclidean sphere of dimension n+1, we prove that it is strongly rigid. As applications we confirm the conjecture proposed by Choi and Schoen in [3] and the Chern conjecture for n less…
