A family of $k$-subsets $A_1, A_2, ..., A_d$ on $[n]=\{1,2,..., n\}$ is called a $(d, c)$-cluster if the union $A_1\cup A_2 \cup ... \cup A_d$ contains at most $ck$ elements with $c<d$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $k$-subsets of an…

A totally symmetric set is a subset of a group such that every permutation of the subset can be realized by conjugation in the group. The (non-)existence of large totally symmetric sets obstruct homomorphisms, so bounds on the sizes of…

We study the packing dimension of unions of subsets of $k$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ using tools from algorithmic information theory, obtaining an analog of a result of H\'era and a mild generalization of a recent result of Fraser. Along the…

For a finite point set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, denote by $\text{diam}(P)$ the ratio of the largest to the smallest distances between pairs of points in $P$. Let $c_{d, \alpha}(n)$ be the largest integer $c$ such that any $n$-point set $P…

The goal of this paper is to present a lower bound for the Mahler volume of at least 4-dimensional symmetric convex bodies. We define a computable dimension dependent constant through a 2-dimensional variational (max-min) procedure and…

The dimension of a linear space is the maximum positive integer $d$ such that any $d$ of its points generate a proper subspace. For a set $K$ of integers at least two, recall that a pairwise balanced design PBD$(v,K)$ is a linear space on…

We say that a set system $\mathcal{F}\subseteq 2^{[n]}$ shatters a given set $S\subseteq [n]$ if $2^S=\{F \cap S : F \in \mathcal{F}\}$. The Sauer inequality states that in general, a set system $\mathcal{F}$ shatters at least…

A classical result of Erd\H{o}s, Lov\'asz and Spencer from the late 1970s asserts that the dimension of the feasible region of densities of graphs with at most k vertices in large graphs is equal to the number of non-trivial connected…

The representation theory of the symmetric group has been intensively studied for over 100 years and is one of the gems of modern mathematics. The full transformation monoid $\mathfrak T_n$ (the monoid of all self-maps of an $n$-element…

The dimension of the space of SU(n) and translation invariant continuous valuations on $\mathbb{C}^n, n \geq 2$ is computed. For even $n$, this dimension equals $(n^2+3n+10)/2$; for odd $n$ it equals $(n^2+3n+6)/2$. An explicit geometric…

Every graph $G$ can be represented by a collection of equi-radii spheres in a $d$-dimensional metric $\Delta$ such that there is an edge $uv$ in $G$ if and only if the spheres corresponding to $u$ and $v$ intersect. The smallest integer $d$…

We initiate the study of computing diverse triangulations to a given polygon. Given a simple $n$-gon $P$, an integer $ k \geq 2 $, a quality measure $\sigma$ on the set of triangulations of $P$ and a factor $ \alpha \geq 1 $, we formulate…

For a conformal theory it is natural to seek the conformal moduli space, M_c to which it belongs, generated by the exactly marginal deformations. By now we should have the tools to determine M_c in the presence of enough supersymmetry. Here…

In prior work, we showed that subsets of $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{n}$ of $\mathrm{VC_{2}}$-dimension at most $k$ are well approximated by a union of atoms of a quadratic factor of complexity $(\ell,q)$, where the complexity $\ell$ of the linear…

The recent theoretical prediction by Maimbourg and Kurchan [arXiv:1603.05023] that for regular pair-potential systems the virial potential-energy correlation coefficient increases towards unity as the dimension $d$ goes to infinity is…

We consider the question of determining the structure of the set of all $d$-dimensional vectors of the form $N^{-1}(1_A*1_{-A}(x_1), ..., 1_A*1_{-A}(x_d))$ for $A \subseteq \{1,...,N\}$, and also the set of all $(2N+1)^{-1}(1_B*1_B(x_1),…

We construct ${\mathcal N}=4 \,$ $\, D(2,1;\alpha)$ superconformal quantum mechanical system for any configuration of vectors forming a V-system. In the case of a Coxeter root system the bosonic potential of the supersymmetric Hamiltonian…

We introduce a minor variant of the approximate D-optimal design of experiments with a more general information matrix that takes into account the representation of the design space S. The main motivation (and result) is that if S in R^d is…

The problem of estimating, from a random sample of points, the dimension of a compact subset $S$ of the Euclidean space is considered. The emphasis is put on consistency results in the statistical sense. That is, statements of convergence…

We study dimensions of sumsets and iterated sumsets and provide natural conditions which guarantee that a set $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ satisfies $\overline{\dim}_\text{B} F+F > \overline{\dim}_\text{B} F$ or even $\dim_\text{H} n F \to 1$.…
