In this note we study certain sufficient conditions for a set of minimal klt pairs $(X,\Delta)$ with $\kappa(X,\Delta)=\dim(X)-1$ to be bounded.

We prove that a set $\mathcal X\subset \mathbb{C}^2,\ \#{\mathcal X}=mn,\ m\le n, $ is the set of intersection points of some two plane algebraic curves of degrees $m$ and $n,$ respectively, if and only if the following conditions are…

A set of nodes is called $n$-independent if each its node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ We proved in a previous paper [H. Hakopian and S. Toroyan, On the minimal number of nodes determining uniquelly algebraic curves, accepted…

We study the linear algebra of finite subsets $S$ of a Segre variety $X$. In particular we classify the pairs $(S,X)$ with $S$ linear dependent and $\#(S)\le 5$. We consider an additional condition for linear dependent sets (no two of their…

We prove upper bounds for the probability that a radial SLE$_{\kappa}$ curve, $\kappa\in(0,8)$, comes within specified radii of $n$ different points in the unit disc. Using this estimate, we then prove a similar upper bound for a…

We study linearly dependent subsets with prescribed cardinality, $s$, of a multiprojective space. If the set $S$ is a circuit, we give an upper bound on the number of factors of the minimal multiprojective space containing $S$, while if $S$…

We address the problem of determining the degree a plane curve must have in order to pass with multiplicity m through r points in general position. A conjecture of Nagata states that one must have d > m \sqrt{r}. We prove the inequalities d…

Given finite sets $X_1,\dotsc,X_m$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ (with $d$ fixed), we prove that there are respective subsets $Y_1,\dotsc,Y_m$ with $|Y_i|\ge \frac{1}{\operatorname{poly}(m)}|X_i|$ such that, for $y_1\in Y_1,\dotsc,y_m\in Y_m$, the…

Let a set of nodes $\mathcal X$ in the plane be $n$-independent, i.e., each node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ Assume that $\#\mathcal X=d(n,k-3)+3= (n+1)+n+\cdots+(n-k+5)+3$ and $4 \le k\le n-1.$ In this paper we prove that…

We give a full solution to the question of existence of indiscernibles in dependent theories by proving the following theorem: for every $\theta$ there is a dependent theory $T$ of size $\theta$ such that for all $\kappa$ and $\delta$,…

Let a set of nodes $\mathcal X$ in the plane be $n$-independent, i.e., each node has a fundamental polynomial of degree $n.$ Assume that\\ $\#\mathcal X=d(n,n-3)+3= (n+1)+n+\cdots+5+3.$ In this paper we prove that there are at most three…

We prove that a submaximal plane curve (i.e., an irreducible counterexample to Nagata's conjecture) with r singular points has sequence of multiplicities (m, n, ..., n) with m<sn for every integer with ((s-1)(s+2))^2 > 6.76(r-1).

Markov networks are probabilistic graphical models that employ undirected graphs to depict conditional independence relationships among variables. Our focus lies in constraint-based structure learning, which entails learning the undirected…

We prove a result which describes, for each $n\ge 1$, all linear dependencies among $n$ images in elliptic curves of special points in modular or Shimura curves under parameterizations (or correspondences). Our result unifies and improves…

Given a subgroup $\Gamma$ of rational points on an elliptic curve $E$ defined over ${\mathbf Q}$ of rank $r \ge 1$ and any sufficiently large $x \ge 2$, assuming that the rank of $\Gamma$ is less than $r$, we give upper and lower bounds on…

For every $k>3$, we give a construction of planar point sets with many collinear $k$-tuples and no collinear $(k+1)$-tuples. We show that there are $n_0=n_0(k)$ and $c=c(k)$ such that if $n\geq n_0$, then there exists a set of $n$ points in…

By Brook's Theorem, every n-vertex graph of maximum degree at most Delta >= 3 and clique number at most Delta is Delta-colorable, and thus it has an independent set of size at least n/Delta. We give an approximate characterization of graphs…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, no three collinear and not all coplanar. If at most $n-k$ are coplanar and $n$ is sufficiently large, the total number of planes determined is at least $1 + k…

Let $X$ be a real algebraic convex 3-manifold whose real part is equipped with a $Pin^-$ structure. We show that every irreducible real rational curve with non-empty real part has a canonical spinor state belonging to $\{\pm 1\}$. The main…
