We study the parameterized problem of satisfying ``almost all'' constraints of a given formula $F$ over a fixed, finite Boolean constraint language $\Gamma$, with or without weights. More precisely, for each finite Boolean constraint…

A subposet $Q'$ of a poset $Q$ is a copy of a poset $P$ if there is a bijection $f$ between elements of $P$ and $Q'$ such that $x\leq y$ in $P$ iff $f(x)\leq f(y)$ in $Q'$. For posets $P, P'$, let the poset Ramsey number $R(P,P')$ be the…

A family $\mbox{$\cal F$}=\{F_1,\ldots,F_m\}$ of subsets of $[n]$ is said to be ordered, if there exists an $1\leq r\leq m$ index such that $n\in F_i$ for each $1\leq i\leq r$, $n\notin F_i$ for each $i>r$ and $|F_i|\leq |F_j|$ for each…

Dimension is a standard and well-studied measure of complexity of posets. Recent research has provided many new upper bounds on the dimension for various structurally restricted classes of posets. Bounded dimension gives a succinct…

We explore the effect of disorder on a few-boson system in a finite one-dimensional quasiperiodic potential covering the full interaction ranging from uncorrelated to strongly correlated particles. We apply numerically exact…

A subset $S$ of the Boolean hypercube $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ is a sumset if $S = \{a + b : a, b\in A\}$ for some $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$. Sumsets are central objects of study in additive combinatorics, featuring in several influential…

We define a natural lattice structure on all subsets of a finite root system that extends the weak order on the elements of the corresponding Coxeter group. For crystallographic root systems, we show that the subposet of this lattice…

Extending a classical theorem of Sperner, we characterize the integers $m$ such that there exists a maximal antichain of size $m$ in the Boolean lattice $B_n$, that is, the power set of $[n]:=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$, ordered by inclusion. As an…

The dimension of a partially-ordered set $P$ is the smallest integer $d$ such that one can embed $P$ into a product of $d$ linear orders. We prove that the dimension of the divisibility order on the interval $\{1, \dotsc, n\}$ is bounded…

Hujter and L\'angi introduced the $k$-fold Borsuk number of a set $S$ in Euclidean $n$-space of diameter $d > 0$ as the smallest cardinality of a family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of $S$, of diameters strictly less than $d$, such that every…

A family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ is called $k$-wise intersecting if any $k$ members of $\mathcal{F}$ have non-empty intersection, and it is called maximal $k$-wise intersecting if no family strictly containing…

Over the past 10 years, there has been considerable interest in exploring questions connecting dimension for posets with graph theoretic properties of their cover graphs and order diagrams, especially with the concepts of planarity and…

Saturating sets are combinatorial objects in projective spaces over finite fields that have been intensively investigated in the last three decades. They are related to the so-called covering problem of codes in the Hamming metric. In this…

Given a graph $F$ and a positive integer $n$, the weak $F$-saturation number $\mathrm{wsat}(K_n,F)$ is the minimum number of edges in a graph $H$ on $n$ vertices such that the edges missing in $H$ can be added, one at a time, so that every…

Let $(\mathcal{P},\leqslant)$ be a finite poset. Define the numbers $a_1,a_2,\ldots$ (respectively, $c_1,c_2,\ldots$) so that $a_1+\ldots+a_k$ (respectively, $c_1+\ldots+c_k$) is the maximal number of elements of $\mathcal{P}$ which may be…

In 2022, Defant and Kravitz introduced extended promotion (denoted $\partial$), a map that acts on the set of labelings of a poset. Extended promotion is a generalization of Sch\"{u}tzenberger's promotion operator, a well-studied map that…

A 0-1 matrix $M$ contains a 0-1 matrix pattern $P$ if we can obtain $P$ from $M$ by deleting rows and/or columns and turning arbitrary 1-entries into 0s. The saturation function $\mathrm{sat}(P,n)$ for a 0-1 matrix pattern $P$ indicates the…

Let $H$ be a fixed graph. We say that a graph $G$ is $H$-saturated if it has no subgraph isomorphic to $H$, but the addition of any edge to $G$ results in an $H$-subgraph. The saturation number $\mathrm{sat}(H,n)$ is the minimum number of…
