Let $P_r(n)$ be the set of partitions of n with non negative rth differences. Let $\lambda$ be a partition chosen uniformly at random among the set $P_r(n)$. Let $d(\lambda)$ be a positive rth difference chosen uniformly at random in…

We study colorful no-dimensional Tverberg-type problems and obtain several optimal results. A colorful no-dimensional Tverberg-type theorem provides a bound on a radius $R$ such that, for any pairwise disjoint $k$-element subsets…

We prove a weak version of the $\varepsilon$-Dvoretzky conjecture for normed spaces, showing the existence of a subspace of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of dimension at least $c \log n / |\log \varepsilon|$ in which the given norm is $\varepsilon$-close…

In this note, we give a new necessary condition for the existence of non-trivial partitions of a finite vector space. Precisely, we prove that, if V is a finite vector space over a field of order q, then the number of the subspaces of…

We give an extension of the lower bound of Vucic and Zivaljevic for the number of Tverberg partitions from the prime to the prime power case. Our proof is inspired by the Z_p-index version of the proof in Matousek's book "Using the…

An approximate formula for the partitions of Goldbach's Conjecture is derived using Prime Number Theorem and a heuristic probabilistic approach. A strong form of Goldbach's conjecture follows in the form of a lower bounding function for the…

Tverberg-type theory aims to establish sufficient conditions for a simplicial complex $\Sigma$ such that every continuous map $f\colon \Sigma \to \mathbb{R}^d$ maps $q$ points from pairwise disjoint faces to the same point in…

Probabilistic approaches for tensor factorization aim to extract meaningful structure from incomplete data by postulating low rank constraints. Recently, variational Bayesian (VB) inference techniques have successfully been applied to large…

The point selection theorem says that the convex hull of any finite point set contains a point that lies in a positive proportion of the simplices determined by that set. This paper proves several new volumetric versions of this theorem…

We establish sharp estimates that adapt the polynomial method to arbitrary varieties. These include a partitioning theorem, estimates on polynomials vanishing on fixed sets and bounds for the number of connected components of real algebraic…

In this paper we use the strength of the constraint method in combination with a generalized Borsuk-Ulam type theorem and a cohomological intersection lemma to show how one can obtain many new topological transversal theorems of Tverberg…

Hadwiger's conjecture asserts that if a simple graph $G$ has no $K_{t+1}$ minor, then its vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned into $t$ stable sets. This is still open, but we prove under the same hypotheses that $V(G)$ can be partitioned…

Wedderburn's theorem on the structure of finite dimensional semisimple algebras is proved by using minimal prerequisites.

Given an order-$d$ tensor $\tensor A \in \R^{n \times n \times...\times n}$, we present a simple, element-wise sparsification algorithm that zeroes out all sufficiently small elements of $\tensor A$, keeps all sufficiently large elements of…

For a given sequence of weights (non-negative numbers), we consider partitions of the positive integer n. Each n-partition is selected uniformly at random from the set of all such partitions. Under a classical scheme of assumptions on the…

We derive here the Friedland-Tverberg inequality for positive hyperbolic polynomials. This inequality is applied to give lower bounds for the number of matchings in $r$-regular bipartite graphs. It is shown that some of these bounds are…

Let $d \ge 2, h \ge 1$ be integers. Using a fragmentation technique, we characterise $(h+1)$-tuples $(R_1, \dots, R_h, R)$ of non-empty families of partitions of $\{1, \dots, d\}$ such that it suffices for an order-$d$ tensor to have…

We study the problem of partitioning a given simple polygon $P$ into a minimum number of connected polygonal pieces, each of bounded size. We describe a general technique for constructing such partitions that works for several notions of…

Here are two of our main results: Theorem 1. Let X be a normal space with dim X=n and m\geq n+1. Then the space C*(X,R^m) of all bounded maps from X into R^m equipped with the uniform convergence topology contains a dense G_{\delta}-subset…

A theorem of Gr\"unbaum, which states that every $m$-polytope is a refinement of an $m$-simplex, implies the following generalization of Tverberg's theorem: if $f$ is a linear function from an $m$-dimensional polytope $P$ to $\mathbb{R}^d$…
