Given positive integers $k\leq d$ and a finite field $\mathbb{F}$, a set $S\subset\mathbb{F}^{d}$ is $(k,c)$-subspace evasive if every $k$-dimensional affine subspace contains at most $c$ elements of $S$. By a simple averaging argument, the…
A family of subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ is called {\it intersecting} if any two of its sets intersect. A classical result in extremal combinatorics due to Erd\H{o}s, Ko, and Rado determines the maximum size of an intersecting family of…
Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F} _{q} $, and ${V\brack k}$ denote the family of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$. The families $\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G}\subseteq {V\brack k}$ are said to be…
Let $\mathcal K=\langle\mathcal R, \delta\rangle$ be a closed ordered differential field, in the sense of M. Singer, and $C$ its field of constants. In this note, we prove that, for sets definable in the pair $\mathcal M=\langle \mathcal R,…
The relation of s-convexity and sets modeling physical quasicrystals is explained for quasicrystals related to quadratic unitary Pisot numbers. We show that 1-dimensional model sets may be characterized by s-convexity for finite set of…
Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper we describe the structure of maximal non-trivial $t$-intersecting families of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ with large size. We also determine…
We prove that a bounded open set U in Euclidean n-space has k-width less than C(n) Volume(U)^{k/n}. Using this estimate, we give lower bounds for the k-dilation of degree 1 maps between certain domains in Euclidean space. In particular, we…
In the context of constant--dimension subspace codes, an important problem is to determine the largest possible size $A_q(n, d; k)$ of codes whose codewords are $k$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ with minimum subspace distance $d$. Here in…
Given S_1, a finite set of points in the plane, we define a sequence of point sets S_i as follows: With S_i already determined, let L_i be the set of all the line segments connecting pairs of points of the union of S_1,...,S_i, and let…
We introduce a new type of $n$-dimensional generalization of symmetric $(v,k,\lambda)$ block designs. We prove upper bounds on the dimension $n$ in terms of $v$ and $k$. We also define the corresponding concept of $n$-dimensional difference…
We continue the study by Melo and Winter [arXiv:1712.01763, 2017] on the possible intersection sizes of a $k$-dimensional subspace with the vertices of the $n$-dimensional hypercube in Euclidean space. Melo and Winter conjectured that all…
In this paper we consider the concept of preintersection numbers of a graph. These numbers are determined by the spectrum of the adjacency matrix of the graph, and generalize the intersection numbers of a distance-regular graph. By using…
We perform systematical studies on transverse-mass spectra of $\pi^0$, $\eta$, $\omega$, $\phi$, $K^+$ and $K^-$ mesons for C + C, Ni + Ni, Au + Au collisions at SIS energies within the HSD transport approach. We find that the $m_T$-spectra…
Let $G$ denote a distance-regular graph with diameter $D\ge 3$, valency $k$, and intersection numbers $a_i$, $b_i$, $c_i$. By a {\it pseudo cosine sequence} of $G$ we mean a sequence of real numbers $s_0, s_1, ..., s_D$ such that $s_0=1$…
Let k be an algebraically closed field. We study the cotangent space of a point t corresponding to a monomial ideal I of k[x_1, ..., x_r] in the Hilbert scheme of n points of affine r-space (so the k-dimension of k[x_1, ..., x_r]/I =…
In recent work of T. Cassidy and the author, a notion of complete intersection was defined for (non-commutative) regular skew polynomial rings, defining it using both algebraic and geometric tools, where the commutative definition is a…
We obtain upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues $\sigma_k(M)$ of a smooth, compact, connected, $n$-dimensional submanifold $M$ of Euclidean space with boundary $\Sigma$ that involve the intersection indices of $M$ and of $\Sigma$. One of…
A subspace of a finite extension field is called a Sidon space if the product of any two of its elements is unique up to a scalar multiplier from the base field. Sidon spaces were recently introduced by Bachoc et al. as a means to…
In this paper, we derive a tight upper bound for the size of an intersecting $k$-Sperner family of subspaces of the $n$-dimensional vector space $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ over finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ which gives a $q$-analogue of the…
Three intersection theorems are proved. First, we determine the size of the largest set system, where the system of the pairwise unions is l-intersecting. Then we investigate set systems where the union of any s sets intersect the union of…
