We show that there exist constants $\delta_1,\delta_2>0$ such that if $G$ is an $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph with $\lambda/d\le\delta_1$, then $G$ contains an induced cycle of length at least $\delta_2n/d$. We further demonstrate that, up to a…

A stable set in a graph G is a set of mutually non-adjacent vertices, alpha(G) is the size of a maximum stable set of G, and core(G) is the intersection of all its maximum stable sets. In this paper we demonstrate that in a tree T, of order…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $bc(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $bc(G) \leq n…

In this paper we consider families of compact convex sets in $\mathbb R^d$ such that any subfamily of size at most $d$ has a nonempty intersection. We prove some analogues of the central point theorem and Tverberg's theorem for such…

We prove that for every $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and a graph class of bounded expansion $\mathscr{C}$, there exists some $c\in \mathbb{N}$ so that every graph from $\mathscr{C}$ admits a proper coloring with at most $c$ colors satisfying the…

In the presence of spacetime boundaries, diffeomorphisms in gravitational theories can become physical and acquire non-vanishing Noether charges. These charges obey an algebra which, within the extended phase-space formalism, faithfully…

The centerpoint theorem is a well-known and widely used result in discrete geometry. It states that for any point set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, there is a point $c$, not necessarily from $P$, such that each halfspace containing…

We give three proofs of the following result conjectured by Carriegos, De Castro-Garc\'{\i}a and Mu\~noz Casta\~neda in their work on enumeration of control systems: when $\binom{k+1}{2} \le n < \binom{k+2}{2}$, there are as many partitions…

In this note, we show that among finite nilpotent groups of a given order or finite groups of a given odd order, the cyclic group of that order has the minimum number of edges in its cyclic subgroup graph. We also conjecture that this holds…

Given a second-countable, Hausdorff, \'etale, amenable groupoid G with compact unit space, we show that an element a in C*(G) is invertible if and only if \lambda_x(a) is invertible for every x in the unit space of G, where \lambda_x refers…

Let A \subseteq [1,..,N]^2 be a set of density at least 1/(log log log N)^c, where c some constant c>0. We prove that A contains a so-called right-angle triangle, i.e. a triple of the form {(k,m), (k+d,m), (k,m+d)}, where d>0.

Let O_d be the Cuntz algebra on generators S_1,...,S_d, 2 \leq d < \infty, and let D_d \subset O_d be the abelian subalgebra generated by monomials S_\alpha S_\alpha^* =S_{\alpha_{1}}...S_{\alpha_{k}}S_{\alpha_{k}}^*...S_{\alpha_{1}}^*…

One of the classical problems in group theory is determining the set of positive integers $n$ such that every group of order $n$ has a particular property $P$, such as cyclic or abelian. We first present the Sylow theorems and the idea of…

A $biased\ graph$ is a pair $(G,\mathcal{B})$, where $G$ is a graph and $\mathcal{B}$ is a collection of `balanced' circuits of $G$ such that no $\Theta$-subgraph of $G$ contains precisely two balanced circuits. We prove a Ramsey-type…

In this paper, we prove that, for any integer $n\ge 2,$ there exists an $\epsilon_{n} \ge 0$ so that if $M$ is an n-dimensional complete manifold with sectional curvature $ K_{M}\ge 1$ and if $M$ has conjugate radius bigger than…

Let G be a group. We say that G has spread r if for any set of distinct elements {x1,..., xr}\subset G there exists an element y\in G with the property that <xi, y>=G for every 0<i<r+1. Few bounds on the spread of finite simple groups are…

Let $D$ be an oriented graph. The inversion of a set $X$ of vertices in $D$ consists in reversing the direction of all arcs with both ends in $X$. The inversion number of $D$, denoted by ${\rm inv}(D)$, is the minimum number of inversions…

Let $v_1$,..., $v_n$ be $n$ vectors in an inner product space. Can we find a natural number $d$ and positive (semidefinite) complex matrices $A_1$,..., $A_n$ of size $d \times d$ such that ${\rm Tr}(A_kA_l)= <v_k, v_l>$ for all $k,l=1,...,…

Let $m\leq n$ be positive integers and $\mathfrak X$ a class of groups which is closed for subgroups, quotient groups and extensions. Suppose that a finite group $G$ satisfies the condition that for every two subsets $M$ and $N$ of…
