We prove a quasi-linear upper bound on the size of $K_{t,t}$-free polygon visibility graphs. For visibility graphs of star-shaped and monotone polygons we show a linear bound. In the more general setting of $n$ points on a simple closed…

The classical Zarankiewicz's problem asks for the maximum number of edges in a bipartite graph on $n$ vertices which does not contain the complete bipartite graph $K_{t,t}$. In one of the cornerstones of extremal graph theory, K\H{o}v\'ari…

Denote the maximum sos rank of $m \times n$ sum of squares (SOS) biquadratic forms by $BSR(m, n)$. In this paper, we show that $BSR(m, n) \ge z(m, n)$ and conjecture that $BSR(m, n) = z(m, n)$, where $z(m, n)$ is the Zarankiewicz number.…

The Zarankiewicz number $z(b;s)$ is the maximum size of a subgraph of $K_{b,b}$ which does not contain $K_{s,s}$ as a subgraph. The two-color bipartite Ramsey number $b(s,t)$ is the smallest integer $b$ such that any coloring of the edges…

The limited augmented Zarankiewicz number $z_L(m,n)$ satisfies $\operatorname{BSR}(m,n)\ge z_L(m,n)\ge z(m,n)$, where $\operatorname{BSR}(m,n)$ is the maximum SOS rank of $m\times n$ biquadratic forms and $z(m,n)$ is the classical…

In 1960, W. Sierpinski proved that there are infinitely many positive odd numbers $k$, such that for any positive integer $n$, $k\times2^n+1$ is a composite number. Such numbers are called "Sierpinski numbers". In this study, by using…

We consider the Tur\'an-type problem of bounding the size of a set $M \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ that does not contain a linear copy of a given fixed set $N \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^k$, where $n$ is large compared to $k$. An Erd\H{o}s-Stone…

In this paper we prove that inf_{|z_k| => 1} max_{v=1,...,n^2} |sum_{k=1}^n z_k^v| = sqrt n+O(n^{0.2625+epsilon}). This improves on the bound O(sqrt (n log n)) of Erdos and Renyi. In the special case of $n+1$ being a prime we have…

The following hypothesis was put forward by Goreinov, Tyrtyshnikov and Zamarashkin in \cite{GTZ1997}. For arbitrary real $n \times k$ matrix with orthonormal columns a sufficiently "good" $k \times k$ submatrix exists. "Good" in the sense…

Recently, several hypergraph Tur\'{a}n problems were solved by the powerful random algebraic method. However, the random algebraic method usually requires some parameters to be very large, hence we are concerned about how these Tur\'{a}n…

We solve the following problem of Z. F\"uredi, J. C. Lagarias and F. Morgan [FLM]: Is there an upper bound polynomial in $n$ for the largest cardinality of a set S of unit vectors in an n-dimensional Minkowski space (or Banach space) such…

We solve an open problem of Diaconis that asks what are the largest orders of $p_n$ and $q_n$ such that $Z_n,$ the $p_n\times q_n$ upper left block of a random matrix $\boldsymbol{\Gamma}_n$ which is uniformly distributed on the orthogonal…

We use an estimate for character sums over finite fields of Katz to solve open problems of Montgomery and Turan. Let h=>2 be an integer. We prove that inf_{|z_k| => 1} max_{v=1,...,n^h} |sum_{k=1}^n z_k^v| <= (h-1+o(1)) sqrt n. This gives…

The hypergraph Zarankiewicz's problem, introduced by Erd\H{o}s in 1964, asks for the maximum number of hyperedges in an $r$-partite hypergraph with $n$ vertices in each part that does not contain a copy of $K_{t,t,\ldots,t}$. Erd\H{o}s…

The Semialgebraic Orbit Problem is a fundamental reachability question that arises in the analysis of discrete-time linear dynamical systems such as automata, Markov chains, recurrence sequences, and linear while loops. An instance of the…

We study the maximum-average submatrix problem, in which given an $N \times N$ matrix $J$ one needs to find the $k \times k$ submatrix with the largest average of entries. We study the problem for random matrices $J$ whose entries are…

The Erd\H{o}s--Ginzburg--Ziv Problem is a classical extremal problem in discrete geometry. Given $m$ and $n$, the problem asks about the smallest number $s$ such that among any $s$ points in the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$ one can find…

We establish new lower bounds for the Tur\'an and Zarankiewicz numbers of certain apex partite hypergraphs. Given a $(d-1)$-partite $(d-1)$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$, let $\mathcal{H}(k)$ be the $d$-partite $d$-uniform hypergraph…

For integers $n\ge s\ge2$, let $e(n,s)$ denote the maximum size of a family $\F\subseteq2^{[n]}$ with no $s$ pairwise disjoint members. The problem of determining $e(n,s)$, now called the Erd\H{o}s--Kleitman problem, is the non-uniform…

In the classical probability model, let $f(n)$ be the maximum number of pairwise independent events for the sample space with $n$ sample points. The determination of $f(n)$ is equivalent to the problem of determining the maximum cardinality…
