For a set $A\subseteq\left[k\right]^{n}=\left\{ 0,\dots,k-1\right\} ^{n}$, we define the $d$-shadow of $A$ to be the set of points obtained by flipping to zero one of the non-zero coordinates of some point in $A$. Let…

Let $M$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^k$. It is an important question in the theory of linear inequalities to estimate the minimal number $h=h(M)$ such that every system of linear inequalities which is infeasible over $M$ has a subsystem of at…

We say that a family of $k$-subsets of an $n$-element set is intersecting if any two of its sets intersect. In this paper we study properties and structure of large intersecting families. We prove a conclusive version of Frankl's theorem on…

We show that there is a defining equation of degree at most $\mathsf{poly}(n)$ for the (Zariski closure of the) set of the non-rigid matrices: that is, we show that for every large enough field $\mathbb{F}$, there is a non-zero…

To give positive answer to a question of Frantzikinakis, we study a class of subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, called interpolation sets, on which every bounded sequence can be extended to an almost periodic sequence on $\mathbb{N}$. Strzelecki has…

Answering a question asked by K.C. Ciesielski and T. Glatzer in 2013, we construct a $C^1$-smooth function $f$ on $[0,1]$ and a set $M \subset \operatorname{graph} f$ nowhere dense in $\operatorname{graph} f$ such that there does not exist…

In this paper we study nonlinear interpolation problems for interpolation and peak-interpolation sets of function algebras. The subject goes back to the classical Rudin-Carleson interpolation theorem. In particular, we prove the following…

Let F be a finite union-closed family of sets whose largest set contains n elements. In \cite{Wojcik92}, Wojcik defined the density of F to be the ratio of the average set size of F to n and conjectured that the minimum density over all…

Given any dimension function $h$, we construct a perfect set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of zero $h$-Hausdorff measure, that contains any finite polynomial pattern. This is achieved as a special case of a more general construction in which we…

In the set of stochastic, indecomposable, aperiodic (SIA) matrices, the class of stochastic Sarymsakov matrices is the largest known subset (i) that is closed under matrix multiplication and (ii) the infinitely long left-product of the…

A Sidon set $S$ in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ is a set such that $x+y=z+w$ has no solutions $x,y,z,w \in S$ with $x,y,z,w$ all distinct. In this paper, we prove various results on Sidon sets by using or generalizing known cryptographic results. In…

The Frankl or Union-Closed Sets conjecture states that for any finite union-closed family of sets $\mathcal{F}$ containing some nonempty set, there is some element $i$ in the ground set $U(\mathcal F) := \bigcup_{S \in \mathcal{F}} S$ of…

The Ramsey Choice principle for families of $n$-element sets, denoted $\mathrm{RC}_n$, states that every infinite set $X$ has an infinite subset $Y\subseteq X$ with a choice function on $[Y]^n := \{z\subseteq Y : |z| = n\}$. We investigate…

Recent results have generalized Gowers' Theorem (to Lupini's Theorem) and the Furstenberg-Katznelson theorem, both infinite dimensional Ramsey Theorems. The framework of arXiv:1611.06600 provides a machine which accepts (almost…

The seminal Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado (EKR) theorem states that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a family of $k$-subsets of an $n$-element set $X$ for $k\leq n/2$ such that every pair of subsets in $\mathcal{F}$ has a nonempty intersection, then $\mathcal{F}$…

We determine several generalised Ramsey numbers for two sets $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ of cycles, in particular, all generalised Ramsey numbers $R(\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2)$ such that $\Gamma_1$ or $\Gamma_2$ contains a cycle of length at most…

Given a graph $G=(V(G), E(G))$ and a set $P\subseteq V(G)$, the following concepts have been recently introduced: $(i)$ two elements of $P$ are \emph{mutually visible} if there is a shortest path between them without further elements of…

We prove that there is a Hermitian self-orthogonal $k$-dimensional truncated generalised Reed-Solomon code of length $n \leqslant q^2$ over ${\mathbb F}_{q^2}$ if and only if there is a polynomial $g \in {\mathbb F}_{q^2}$ of degree at most…

If a family $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-element subsets of an $n$-element set is pairwise intersecting, $2k\leq n$ then $|\mathcal{F}|\leq {n-1\choose k-1}$ holds by the celebrated Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem. But an intersecting family obviously…

With every real polynomial $f$, we associate a family $\{f_{\epsilon r}\}_{\epsilon, r}$ of real polynomials, in explicit form in terms of $f$ and the parameters $\epsilon>0,r\in N$, and such that $\Vert f-f_{\epsilon r}\Vert_1\to 0$ as…
