Studying the factorization theory of numerical monoids relies on understanding several important factorization invariants, including length sets, delta sets, and $\omega$-primality. While progress in this field has been accelerated by the…

Define $|n|$ to be the complexity of $n$, the smallest number of 1's needed to write $n$ using an arbitrary combination of addition and multiplication. John Selfridge showed that $|n|\ge 3\log_3 n$ for all $n$. Define the defect of $n$,…

We consider the problem of enumerating permutations with exactly r occurrences of the pattern 1324 and derive functional equations for this general case as well as for the pattern avoidance (r=0) case. The functional equations lead to a new…

A theta is a graph consisting of two non-adjacent vertices and three internally disjoint paths between them, each of length at least two. For a family $\mathcal{H}$ of graphs, we say a graph $G$ is $\mathcal{H}$-free if no induced subgraph…

Gurumuhkani et al. (CCC'24) introduced the local enumeration problem $Enum(k, t)$ as follows: for a natural number $k$ and a parameter $t$, given an $n$-variate $k$-CNF with no satisfying assignment with Hamming weight less than $t(n)$,…

We study the distribution of the length of longest monotone subsequences in random (fixed-point free) involutions of $n$ integers as $n$ grows large, establishing asymptotic expansions in powers of $n^{-1/6}$ in the general case and in…

The number of 123-avoiding permutation on $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ with a fixed leading terms is counted by the ballot numbers. The same holds for $132$-avoiding permutations. These results were proved by Miner and Pak using the…

We enumerate 132-avoiding permutations of order 3 in terms of the Catalan and Motzkin generating functions, answering a question of B\'{o}na and Smith from 2019. We also enumerate 231-avoiding permutations that are composed only of…

This paper gives an heuristic lower bound for the number of integers connected to 1 and less than $x$, $\theta(x) > 0.9x,$ in the context of the $3n+1$ problem.

It is well known that permutations avoiding any 3-length pattern are enumerated by the Catalan numbers. If the three patterns 123, 132 and 213 are avoided at the same time we obtain a class of permutations enumerated by the Fibonacci…

We introduce a family of dynamical systems that generate negative $\beta$-expansions and study the support of the invariant measure which is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. We give a characterization of the set of…

A permutation is said to be \emph{alternating} if it starts with rise and then descents and rises come in turn. In this paper we study the generating function for the number of alternating permutations on $n$ letters that avoid or contain…

We prove that for every $t\in \mathbb{N}$, there exists $\tau=\tau(t)\in \mathbb{N}$ such that every (theta, prism, $K_{1,t}$)-free graph has tree independence number at most $\tau$ (where we allow "prisms" to have one path of length zero).

In this paper, we consider counting and projected model counting of extensions in abstract argumentation for various semantics. When asking for projected counts we are interested in counting the number of extensions of a given argumentation…

For graphs $H$ and $F$, let $\text{ex}(n,H,F)$ be the maximum possible number of copies of $H$ in an $F$-free graph on $n$ vertices. The study of this function, which generalizes the well-known Tur\'{a}n number of graphs, was systematically…

We derive precise asymptotic estimates for the number of labelled graphs not containing $K_{3,3}$ as a minor, and also for those which are edge maximal. Additionally, we establish limit laws for parameters in random $K_{3,3}$-minor-free…

This paper is part of the ongoing effort to study high-dimensional permutations. We prove the analogue to the Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres theorem: For every $k\ge1$, every order-$n$ $k$-dimensional permutation contains a monotone subsequence of…

Let f be an irreducible polynomial of degree d>=3 with no fixed prime divisor. We derive an asymptotic formula for the number of primes p<x such that f(p) is (d-1)-free.

For $\tau\in S_3$, let $S_n(\tau)$ denote the set of permutations in $S_n$ which avoid the pattern $\tau$, and let $E_n^\tau$ denote the expectation with respect to the uniformly random probability measure on $S_n(\tau)$. Let…

What is the higher-dimensional analog of a permutation? If we think of a permutation as given by a permutation matrix, then the following definition suggests itself: A d-dimensional permutation of order n is an [n]^(d+1) array of zeros and…
