Here we prove some special cases of the following conjecture: that the sum of the Betti numbers of a 1-connected elliptic space is greater than the total rank of its homotopy groups. Our main tool is Sullivan's minimal model.

A grid poset -- or grid for short -- is a product of chains. We ask, what does a random linear extension of a grid look like? In particular, we show that the average "jump number," i.e., the number of times that two consecutive elements in…

Let $P$ and $Q$ be bounded posets. In this note, a lemma is introduced that provides a set of sufficient conditions for the proper part of $P$ being homotopy equivalent to the suspension of the proper part of~$Q$. An application of this…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, no three collinear and not all coplanar. If at most $n-k$ are coplanar and $n$ is sufficiently large, the total number of planes determined is at least $1 + k…

In our previous work, we defined a prime walk (PW) on a square grid and presented several intriguing numerical results. Here, we demonstrate the main conjecture presented there, namely, that the area covered by the prime walk is unbounded.…

We explore the enumeration of some natural classes of graded posets, including all graded posets, (2+2)- and (3+1)-avoiding graded posets, (2+2)-avoiding graded posets, and (3+1)-avoiding graded posets. We obtain enumerative and structural…

This paper studies problems related to visibility among points in the plane. A point $x$ \emph{blocks} two points $v$ and $w$ if $x$ is in the interior of the line segment $\bar{vw}$. A set of points $P$ is \emph{$k$-blocked} if each point…

We show that the Boundedness Height Conjecture is optimal; all varieties in a power of an elliptic curve which do not satisfy the hypothesis neither satisfy the thesis. The Bounded Height Conjecture is known to hold for varieties in a power…

The notion of (3+1)-avoidance has shown up in many places in enumerative combinatorics. The natural goal of enumeration of all (3+1)-avoiding posets remains open. In this paper, we enumerate graded (3+1)-avoiding posets for both reasonable…

The Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres conjecture states that any set of more than $2^{n-2}$ points in the plane with no three on a line contains the vertices of a convex $n$-gon. Erd\H{o}s, Tuza, and Valtr strengthened the conjecture by stating that any…

The weak Bruhat order on $ { \mathcal S }_n $ is the partial order $\prec$ so that $\sigma \prec \tau$ whenever the set of inversions of $\sigma$ is a subset of the set of inversions of $\tau$. We investigate the time complexity of…

Let $p$ be a prime. For $d\in \mathbb{N}$, let $\mathbb{Q}_p^d$ be the standard $d$-dimensional p-adic Hilbert space. Let $m \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\text{Sym}^m(\mathbb{Q}_p^d)$ be the p-adic Hilbert space of symmetric m-tensors. We prove the…

Inspired by a width invariant on permutations defined by Guillemot and Marx, Bonnet, Kim, Thomass\'e, and Watrigant introduced the twin-width of graphs, which is a parameter describing its structural complexity. This invariant has been…

Two models of a queue are proposed: a human queue and two lines of vehicles before a narrowing. In both models, a queuer tries to evaluate his waiting time, taking into account the delay caused by intruders who jump to the queue front. As…

A planar order is a special linear extension of the edge poset (partially ordered set) of a processive plane graph. The definition of a planar order makes sense for any finite poset and is equivalent to the one of a conjugate order. Here it…

The relational width of a finite structure, if bounded, is always (1,1) or (2,3). In this paper we study the relational width of first-order expansions of finitely bounded homogeneous binary cores where binary cores are structures with…

J. Y. Hyun, et al. (Des. Codes Cryptogr., vol. 88, pp. 2475-2492, 2020) constructed some optimal and minimal binary linear codes generated by one or two order ideals in hierarchical posets of two levels. At the end of their paper, they left…

We explore various techniques for counting the number of straight-edge crossing-free graphs that can be embedded on a planar point set. In particular, we derive a lower bound on the ratio of the number of such graphs with $m+1$ edges to the…

Graded posets frequently arise throughout combinatorics, where it is natural to try to count the number of elements of a fixed rank. These counting problems are often $\#\textbf{P}$-complete, so we consider approximation algorithms for…

In this article we prove several new uniform upper bounds on the number of points of bounded height on varieties over $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$. For projective curves, we prove the analogue of Walsh' result with polynomial dependence on $q$ and the…
