Let $k$ be a field, $A$ a finitely generated associative $k$-algebra and $\operatorname{Rep}_A[n]$ the functor $\operatorname{Fields}_k\to \operatorname{Sets}$, which sends a field $K$ containing $k$ to the set of isomorphism classes of…
Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space with curvature $\geq 1$, and let $\{q_1,\cdots,q_k\}$ be any $\frac\pi2$-separated subset in $M$ (i.e. the distance $|q_iq_j|\geq\frac{\pi}{2}$ for any $i\neq j$). Under the additional…
We obtain a polynomial upper bound in the finite-field version of the multidimensional polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for distinct-degree polynomials. That is, if $P_1, ..., P_t$ are nonconstant integer polynomials of distinct degrees and…
We consider the fragmentation process with mass loss and discuss self-similar properties of the arising structure both in time and space, focusing on dimensional analysis. This exhibits a spectrum of mass exponents $\theta$, whose exact…
The fractal dimension of domain walls produced by changing the boundary conditions from periodic to anti-periodic in one spatial direction is studied using both the strong-disorder renormalization group and the greedy algorithm for the…
An improved upper bound is obtained for the density of sequences of positive integers that contain no k-term geometric progression.
Let $X$ be a simplicial complex with $n$ vertices. A missing face of $X$ is a simplex $\sigma\notin X$ such that $\tau\in X$ for any $\tau\subsetneq \sigma$. For a $k$-dimensional simplex $\sigma$ in $X$, its degree in $X$ is the number of…
We provide the first known upper bounds for the packing dimension of weighted singular and weighted $\omega$-singular matrices. We also prove upper bounds for these sets when intersected with fractal subsets. The latter results, even in the…
We consider several different models for generating random fractals including random self-similar sets, random self-affine carpets, and fractal percolation. In each setting we compute either the \emph{almost sure} or the \emph{Baire…
The threshold-$k$ metric dimension ($\mathrm{Tmd}_k$) of a graph is the minimum number of sensors -- a subset of the vertex set -- needed to uniquely identify any vertex in the graph, solely based on its distances from the sensors, when the…
A subset $S$ of a vertex set of a graph $G$ is a total $(k,r)$-dominating set if every vertex $u \in V(G)$ is within distance $k$ of at least $r$ vertices in $S$. The minimum cardinality among all total $(k,r)$-dominating sets of $G$ is…
A subset of a metric space is a k-distance set if there are exactly k non-zero distances occuring between points. We conjecture that a k-distance set in a d-dimensional Banach space (or Minkowski space), contains at most (k+1)^d points,…
We prove a no-dimensional version of Carath\'edory's theorem: given an $n$-element set $P\subset \Re^d$, a point $a \in \conv P$, and an integer $r\le d$, $r \le n$, there is a subset $Q\subset P$ of $r$ elements such that the distance…
This paper is an exposition, with some new applications, of our results on the growth of entropy of convolutions. We explain the main result on $\mathbb{R}$, and derive, via a linearization argument, an analogous result for the action of…
Pach showed that every $d+1$ sets of points $Q_1,\dotsc,Q_{d+1} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ contain linearly-sized subsets $P_i\subset Q_i$ such that all the transversal simplices that they span intersect. We show, by means of an example, that a…
Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a set of $(h-1)$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathrm{PG}(kh-1,q)$ with the property that every hyperplane contains at most $t$ elements of $\mathcal{X}$. We prove the upper bound $|\mathcal{X}| \leq (t-k+2)q^h + t$, and…
We relate various concepts of fractal dimension of the limiting set C in fractal percolation to the dimensions of the set consisting of connected components larger than one point and its complement in C (the "dust"). In two dimensions, we…
The main goal of this paper has a double purpose. On the one hand, we propose a new definition in order to compute the fractal dimension of a subset respect to any fractal structure, which completes the theory of classical box-counting…
We construct a sequence of subset partition graphs satisfying the dimension reduction, adjacency, strong adjacency, and endpoint count properties whose diameter has a superlinear asymptotic lower bound. These abstractions of polytope graphs…
Given a finite point set $P$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$, and $\epsilon>0$ we say that $N\subseteq{ \mathbb R}^d$ is a weak $\epsilon$-net if it pierces every convex set $K$ with $|K\cap P|\geq \epsilon |P|$. We show that for any finite point set in…
