Given a finite set $E$, a subset $D\sub E$ (viewed as a function $E\to \F_2$) is orthogonal to a given subspace $\FF$ of the $\F_2$-vector space of functions $E\to \F_2$ as soon as $D$ is orthogonal to every $\sub$-minimal element of $\FF$.…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be an infinite field with characteristic different from two. For a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $V={1,...,n}$, let $S(G;\mathbb{F})$ be the set of all symmetric $n\times n$ matrices $A=[a_{i,j}]$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with…

We show that if f: X --> Y is a finite, separable morphism of smooth curves defined over a finite field F_q, where q is larger than an explicit constant depending only on the degree of f and the genus of X, then f maps X(F_q) surjectively…

The orthogonality graph of an Okubo algebra with isotropic norm over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$ is considered. Its connected components are described, and their diameters are computed. It is shown that there exist at most two shortest…

Deciding whether or not two polynomials have isomoprhic splitting fields over the rationals is the Field Isomorphism Problem. We consider polynomials of the form $f_n(x) = x^4-nx^3-6x^2+nx+1$ with $n \neq 3$ a positive integer and we let…

We prove that for any circle graph $H$ with at least one edge and for any positive integer $k$, there exists an integer $t=t(k,H)$ so that every graph $G$ either has a vertex-minor isomorphic to the disjoint union of $k$ copies of $H$, or…

This is an expository article. It discusses an approach to hypoelliptic Fredholm index theory based on noncommutative methods (groupoids, C*-algebras, K-theory). The paper starts with an explicit index theorem for scalar second order…

We prove that if $u:K \rightarrow M$ is a left minimal extension, then there exists an isomorphism between two subrings, $\textrm{End}_R^M(K)$ and $\textrm{End}_R^K(M)$ of $\textrm{End}_R(K)$ and $\textrm{End}_R(M)$ respectively, modulo…

Let k be a field of characteristic not 2, let q be a quadratic space over k and let f be an irreducible polynomial with coefficients in k. In 1969, Milnor raised the following question : how can we decide whether q has an isometry with…

Base polytopes of polymatroids, also known as generalized permutohedra, are polytopes whose edges are parallel to a vector of the form $\mathbf{e}_i - \mathbf{e}_j$. We consider the following computational problem: Given two vertices of a…

Oriented graph discrepancy problems focus on finding specific subgraphs within a given oriented graph $G$ that contain a significant number of edges in one direction. This concept was first introduced by Gishboliner, Krivelevich, and…

Using cyclotomic classes of order twelve for certain finite fields, we construct an infinite family of almost difference sets and normally regular graphs applying the theory of cyclotomy. We show that in each of these fields neither the…

The CSP dichotomy conjecture has been recently established, but a number of other dichotomy questions remain open, including the dichotomy classification of list homomorphism problems for signed graphs. Signed graphs arise naturally in many…

This paper studies the foundations of the geometric fixed point functor in multiplicative equivariant stable homotopy theory. We introduce a new class of equivariant orthogonal spectra called generalized orbit desuspension spectra and…

We consider facet-Hamiltonian cycles of polytopes, defined as cycles in their skeleton such that every facet is visited exactly once. These cycles can be understood as optimal watchman routes that guard the facets of a polytope. We consider…

In 2019, Xiang Fan \cite{xfan} classified all permutation polynomials of degree $7$ over finite fields of odd characteristics. In this paper, we use this classification to determine the complete list of degree $7$ orthomorphism polynomials…

The orthogonality dimension of a graph $G=(V,E)$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is the smallest integer $t$ for which there exists an assignment of a vector $u_v \in \mathbb{F}^t$ with $\langle u_v,u_v \rangle \neq 0$ to every vertex $v \in V$,…

For each integer k >= 2, let F(k) denote the largest n for which there exists a permutation \sigma \in S_n, all of whose patterns of length k are distinct. We prove that F(k) = k + \lfloor \sqrt{2k-3} \rfloor + e_k, where e_k \in {-1,0} for…

We study the Fourier transform of polynomials in an orthogonal family, taken with respect to the orthogonality measure. Mastering the asymptotic properties of these transforms, that we call Fourier--Bessel functions, in the argument, the…

Consider a family $\mathcal F$ of $C_{2r+1}$-free graphs, where $r\geq 2$. Suppose that each graph in $\mathcal F$ has minimum degree linear in its number of vertices. Thomassen showed that such a family has bounded chromatic number, or,…
