Tverberg's theorem states that for any $k \ge 2$ and any set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of at least $(d + 1)(k - 1) + 1$ points in $d$ dimensions, we can partition $P$ into $k$ subsets whose convex hulls have a non-empty intersection. The…
The topological Tverberg theorem states that any continuous map of a $(d+1)(r-1)$-simplex into the Euclidean $d$-space maps some points from $r$ pairwise disjoint faces of the simplex to the same point whenever $r$ is a prime power. We…
B\'ar\'any's "topological Tverberg conjecture" from 1976 states that any continuous map of an $N$-simplex $\Delta_N$ to $\mathbb{R}^d$, for $N\ge(d+1)(r-1)$, maps points from $r$ disjoint faces in $\Delta_N$ to the same point in…
Following D.B. Karaguezian, V. Reiner, and M.L. Wachs (Matching Complexes, Bounded Degree Graph Complexes, and Weight Spaces of $GL$-Complexes, Journal of Algebra 2001) we study the connectivity degree and shellability of multiple…
The topological Tverberg theorem states that for any prime power q and continuous map from a (d+1)(q-1)-simplex to R}^d, there are q disjoint faces F_i of the simplex whose images intersect. It is possible to put conditions on which pairs…
One widely applied sufficient condition for the existence of a colorful simplex in a vertex-colored simplicial complex is a topological extension of Hall's transversal theorem due to Aharoni, Haxell, and Meshulam. We prove a similar…
Let $X$ be a (repetitive) infinite connected simple graph with a finite upper bound $\Delta$ on the vertex degrees. The main theorem states that $X$ admits a (repetitive) limit aperiodic vertex coloring by $\Delta$ colors. This refines a…
Tverberg-type theory aims to establish sufficient conditions for a simplicial complex $\Sigma$ such that every continuous map $f\colon \Sigma \to \mathbb{R}^d$ maps $q$ points from pairwise disjoint faces to the same point in…
An edge-coloured graph is said to be rainbow if no colour appears more than once. Extremal problems involving rainbow objects have been a focus of much research over the last decade as they capture the essence of a number of interesting…
A well-known result by Graham in Euclidean Ramsey Theory states that, for every positive real number $A$, every coloring of the plane with finite number of colors contains a monochromatic triangle of area $A$. We consider canonical versions…
A well-studied coloring problem is to assign colors to the edges of a graph $G$ so that, for every pair of vertices, all edges of at least one shortest path between them receive different colors. The minimum number of colors necessary in…
We use the probabilistic method to obtain versions of the colorful Carath\'eodory theorem and Tverberg's theorem with tolerance. In particular, we give bounds for the smallest integer $N=N(t,d,r)$ such that for any $N$ points in $R^d$,…
The colorful Helly theorem and Tverberg's theorem are fundamental results in discrete geometry. We prove a theorem which interpolates between the two. In particular, we show the following for any integers $d \geq m \geq 1$ and $k$ a prime…
For a given $\delta \in (0,1)$, the randomly perturbed graph model is defined as the union of any $n$-vertex graph $G_0$ with minimum degree $\delta n$ and the binomial random graph $\mathbf{G}(n,p)$ on the same vertex set. Moreover, we say…
The classical 1966 theorem of Tverberg with its numerous variations was and still is a motivating force behind many important developments in convex and computational geometry as well as the testing ground for methods from equivariant…
A recent lower bound on the number of edges in a k-critical n-vertex graph by Kostochka and Yancey yields a half-page proof of the celebrated Gr\"otzsch Theorem that every planar triangle-free graph is 3-colorable. In this paper we use the…
The Topological Tverberg Theorem claims that any continuous map of a (q-1)(d+1)-simplex to \R^d identifies points from q disjoint faces. (This has been proved for affine maps, for d=1, and if q is a prime power, but not yet in general.) The…
There are several topological results ensuring the existence of a large complete bipartite subgraph in any properly colored graph satisfying some special topological regularity conditions. In view of $\mathbb{Z}_p$-Tucker lemma, Alishahi…
Given a coloring of the edges of a multi-hypergraph, a rainbow t-matching is a collection of t disjoint edges, each having a different color. In this note we study the problem of finding a rainbow $t$-matching in an r-partite r-uniform…
The Four color problem is closely related to other branches of mathematics and practical applications. More than 20 of its reformulations are known, which connect this problem with problems of algebra, statistical mechanics and planning.…
