A family $\cF \subseteq 2^{[n]}$ saturates the monotone decreasing property $\cP$ if $\cF$ satisfies $\cP$ and one cannot add any set to $\cF$ such that property $\cP$ is still satisfied by the resulting family. We address the problem of…

In this paper, we study pattern matching in the set F_{n,k} of fillings of the k x n rectangle with the integers 1,...,kn such that the elements in any column increase from bottom to top. Let P be a column strict tableau of shape 2^k. We…

A simple matrix is a (0,1)-matrix with no repeated columns. For a (0,1)-matrix $F$, we say that a (0,1)-matrix $A$ has $F$ as a configuration if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and column permutation of $F$ (trace is the set…

Given a finite poset $\mathcal P$, we say that a family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of $[n]$ is $\mathcal P$-saturated if $\mathcal F$ does not contain an induced copy of $\mathcal P$, but adding any other set to $\mathcal F$ creates an induced…

For a fixed poset $\mathcal P$ we say that a family $\mathcal F\subseteq\mathcal P([n])$ is $\mathcal P$-saturated if it does not contain an induced copy of $\mathcal P$, but whenever we add a new set to $\mathcal F$, we form an induced…

Matrix completion is a fundamental problem that comes up in a variety of applications like the Netflix problem, collaborative filtering, computer vision, and crowdsourcing. The goal of the problem is to recover a k-by-n unknown matrix from…

The problem of completing a large matrix with lots of missing entries has received widespread attention in the last couple of decades. Two popular approaches to the matrix completion problem are based on singular value thresholding and…

A zero-one matrix $M$ is said to contain another zero-one matrix $A$ if we can delete some rows and columns of $M$ and replace some $1$-entries with $0$-entries such that the resulting matrix is $A$. The extremal number of $A$, denoted…

In this paper, we study matrix functions of bounded type from the viewpoint of describing an interplay between function theory and operator theory. \ We first establish a criterion on the coprime-ness of two singular inner functions and…

For a fixed graph $F,$ the minimum number of edges in an edge-maximal $F$-free subgraph of $G$ is called the $F$-saturation number. The asymptotics of the $F$-saturation number of the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ for constant $p\in(0,1)$…

A fooling-set matrix has nonzero diagonal, but at least one in every pair of diagonally opposite entries is 0. Dietzfelbinger et al. '96 proved that the rank of such a matrix is at least $\sqrt n$. It is known that the bound is tight (up to…

Let $\Pi_q$ be an arbitrary finite projective plane of order $q$. A subset $S$ of its points is called saturating if any point outside $S$ is collinear with a pair of points from $S$. Applying probabilistic tools we improve the upper bound…

A sign pattern matrix is a matrix whose entries are from the set $\{+,-,0\}$. If $A$ is an $m\times n$ sign pattern matrix, the qualitative class of $A$, denoted $Q(A)$, is the set of all real $m\times n$ matrices $B=[b_{i,j}]$ with…

The extremal theory of forbidden 0-1 matrices studies the asymptotic growth of the function $\mathrm{Ex}(P,n)$, which is the maximum weight of a matrix $A\in\{0,1\}^{n\times n}$ whose submatrices avoid a fixed pattern $P\in\{0,1\}^{k\times…

The stable index of a 0-1 matrix $A$ is defined to be the smallest integer $k$ such that $A^{k+1}$ is not a 0-1 matrix if such an integer exists; otherwise the stable index of $A$ is defined to be infinity. We characterize the set of stable…

We study the functions that count matrices of given rank over a finite field with specified positions equal to zero. We show that these matrices are $q$-analogues of permutations with certain restricted values. We obtain a simple closed…

Let $F_n$ be an $n$ by $n$ symmetric matrix whose entries are bounded by $n^{\gamma}$ for some $\gamma>0$. Consider a randomly perturbed matrix $M_n=F_n+X_n$, where $X_n$ is a random symmetric matrix whose upper diagonal entries $x_{ij}$…
