Let F be a fixed finite field of characteristic at least 5. Let G = F^n be the n-dimensional vector space over F, and write N := |G|. We show that if A is a subset of G with size at least c_F N(log N)^{-c}, for some absolute constant c > 0…
Let $a$ be a non-invertible transformation of a finite set and let $G$ be a group of permutations on that same set. Then $\genset{G, a}\setminus G$ is a subsemigroup, consisting of all non-invertible transformations, in the semigroup…
We establish formulas for the number of all downsets (or equivalently, of all antichains) of a finite poset P. Then, using these numbers, we determine recursively and explicitly the number of all posets having a fixed set of minimal points…
It is consistent that there is a set mapping from the four-tuples of omega_n into the finite subsets with no free subsets of size t_n for some natural number t_n. For any n< omega it is consistent that there is a set mapping from the pairs…
We characterise the numerical semigroups with a monotone Ap\'ery set (MANS-semigroups for abbreviate). Moreover, we describe the families of MANS-semigroups when we set the multiplicity and the ratio.
In this note we answer to a frequently asked question. If G is an algebraic group acting on a variety V, a G-sheet of V is an irreducible component of V^(m), the set of elements of V whose G-orbit has dimension m. We focus on the case of…
The article contains some important classes of multisets. Combinatorial proofs of problems on the number of m-submultisets and m-permutations of multiset elements are considered and effective algorithms for their calculation are given. In…
A generalised numerical semigroup (GNS) is a submonoid $S$ of $\mathbb{N}^d$ for which the complement $\mathbb{N}^d\setminus S$ is finite. The points in the complement $\mathbb{N}^d\setminus S$ are called gaps. A gap $F$ is considered…
Thanks to recent advances in parametric geometry of numbers, we know that the spectrum of any set of $m$ exponents of Diophantine approximation to points in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (in a general abstract setting) is a compact connected subset of…
For every N > 0 there exists a group of deficiency less than -N that arises as the fundamental group of a smooth homology 4-sphere and also as the fundamental group of the complement of a compact contractible submanifold of the 4-sphere. A…
We study numerical semigroups with the property "multiplicity= embedding dimension+1", generated by concatenation of arithmetic sequences.
We show that the functions g and gs introduced by Guo Wuwen in [4] are continuous and semialgebraic. We use this fact to prove that the set Nn of ordered n-tuples of real numbers, realizable by nonnegative matrices, is a closed set.
Let n_g denote the number of numerical semigroups of genus g. Bras-Amoros conjectured that n_g possesses certain Fibonacci-like properties. Almost all previous attempts at proving this conjecture were based on analyzing the semigroup tree.…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of order $n$. For any subset $B$ of $G$ with $B=-B$, the Cayley graph $G_B$ is a graph on vertex set $G$ in which $ij$ is an edge if and only if $i-j\in B.$ It was shown by Ben Green that when $G$ is a…
Let $G$ be the alternating group $\mbox{Alt}(n)$ on $n$ letters. We prove that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $N = N(\varepsilon) \in \mathbb{N}$ such that whenever $n \geq N$ and $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ are normal subsets of $G$ each of…
We introduce a variation of metric dimension, called the multiset dimension. The representation multiset of a vertex $v$ with respect to $W$ (which is a subset of the vertex set of a graph $G$), $r_m (v|W)$, is defined as a multiset of…
We describe a new construction of a subset of P^4 with no four points on a plane over any finite field of order q in which 3 is not a square. This set has size 2q + 1, is maximal with respect to inclusion, and is the largest known such set.
Let G be an arbitrary finite group and let S and T be two subsets such that |S|>1, |T|>1, and |TS|< |T|+|S|< |G|-1. We show that if |S|< |G|-4|G|^{1/2}+1 then either S is a geometric progression or there exists a non-trivial subgroup H such…
Given a subset $W$ of an abelian group $G$, a subset $C$ is called an additive complement for $W$ if $W+C=G$; if, moreover, no proper subset of $C$ has this property, then we say that $C$ is a minimal complement for $W$. It is natural to…
In 2018, M. Chu and S. Tillmann gave a lower bound for the trisection genus of a closed 4-manifold in terms of the Euler characteristic of $M$ and the rank of its fundamental group. We show that given a group $G$, there exist a 4-manifold…
