We shift the perspective on the interval fragmentation problem from division points to division spacings. This leads to a proof that is both simpler and stronger, establishing limiting distributions for partition points and spacings and,…

The random polytope $K_n$, defined as the convex hull of $n$ points chosen uniformly at random on the boundary of a smooth convex body, is considered. Proofs for lower and upper variance bounds, strong laws of large numbers and central…

We present filling as a type of spatial subdivision problem similar to covering and packing. Filling addresses the optimal placement of overlapping objects lying entirely inside an arbitrary shape so as to cover the most interior volume. In…

A locally uniform random permutation is generated by sampling $n$ points independently from some absolutely continuous distribution $\rho$ on the plane and interpreting them as a permutation by the rule that $i$ maps to $j$ if the $i$th…

We prove the conjectured limiting normality for the number of crossings of a uniformly chosen set partition of [n] = {1,2,...,n}. The arguments use a novel stochastic representation and are also used to prove central limit theorems for the…

Many popular random partition models, such as the Chinese restaurant process and its two-parameter extension, fall in the class of exchangeable random partitions, and have found wide applicability in model-based clustering, population…

We study a random partial covering model on the $(d-1)$-dimensional unit sphere, where $N$ spherical caps are placed independently and uniformly at random, each covering a surface fraction of $1/N$. This model provides a continuous…

We initiate the study of limit shapes for random permutations avoiding a given pattern. Specifically, for patterns of length 3, we obtain delicate results on the asymptotics of distributions of positions of numbers in the permutations. We…

The paper concerns the limit shape (under some probability measure) of convex polygonal lines with vertices on $\mathbb{Z}_+^2$, starting at the origin and with the right endpoint $n=(n_1,n_2)\to\infty$. In the case of the uniform measure,…

Given a finite set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, Tverberg's theorem guarantees the existence of partitions of this set into parts whose convex hulls intersect. We introduce a graph structured on the family of Tverberg partitions of a given…

We consider the {\em Shaped Partition Problem} of partitioning $n$ given vectors in real $k$-space into $p$ parts so as to maximize an arbitrary objective function which is convex on the sum of vectors in each part, subject to arbitrary…

This study delves into the exploration of the limiting shape theorem for subadditive processes on finitely generated groups with polynomial growth, commonly referred to as virtually nilpotent groups. Investigating the algebraic structures…

We consider a generic system composed of a fixed number of particles distributed over a finite number of energy levels. We make only general assumptions about system's properties and the entropy. System's constraints other than fixed number…

This paper completes the classification of maximal unrefinable partitions, extending a previous work of Aragona et al. devoted only to the case of triangular numbers. We show that the number of maximal unrefinable partitions of an integer…

We study the optimal partitioning of a (possibly unbounded) interval of the real line into $n$ subintervals in order to minimize the maximum of certain set-functions, under rather general assumptions such as continuity, monotonicity, and a…

Schur's partition theorem states that the number of partitions of n into distinct parts congruent 1, 2 (mod 3) equals the number of partitions of n into parts which differ by >= 3, where the inequality is strict if a part is a multiple of…

Given a graph $F$, the random Tur\'an problem asks to determine the maximum number of edges in an $F$-free subgraph of $G_{n,p}$. Prior to this work, the only bipartite graphs $F$ with known tight bounds included certain classes of complete…
