We study a variational problem for the perimeter associated with the Grushin plane, called minimal partition problem with trace constraint. This consists in studying how to enclose three prescribed areas in the Grushin plane, using the…
Consider a compact $M \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and $r > 0$. A maximal distance minimizer problem is to find a connected compact set $\Sigma$ of the minimal length, such that \[ \max_{y \in M} dist (y, \Sigma) \leq r. \] The inverse problem is…
Detecting spreading outbreaks in social networks with sensors is of great significance in applications. Inspired by the formation mechanism of human's physical sensations to external stimuli, we propose a new method to detect the influence…
We construct a minimum tree for some boundary symmetric tetrahedra R^3, which has two nodes (interior points) with equal weights (positive numbers) having the property that the common perpendicular of some two opposite edges passes through…
We study a problem of geometric graph theory: We determine the triply periodic graph in Euclidean 3-space which minimizes length among all graphs spanning a fundamental domain of 3-space with the same volume. The minimizer is the so-called…
For an integer $\rho$ such that $1 \leq \rho \leq v/3$, define $\beta(\rho,v)$ to be the maximum number of blocks in any partial Steiner triple system on $v$ points in which the maximum partial parallel class has size $\rho$. We obtain…
Given a finite set, $X$, of points in projective space for which the Hilbert function is known, a standard result says that there exists a subset of this finite set whose Hilbert function is ``as big as possible'' inside $X$. Given a finite…
We study $t$-intersecting and $t$-cross-intersecting families of $k$-dimensional subspaces in finite vector spaces of dimension $n$. We show that all large $t$-intersecting families admit a governing low-dimensional structure for $n \ge…
How to observe the state of a network from a limited number of measurements has become an important issue in complex networks, engineering, communication, epidemiology, etc. Under some scenarios, it is neither unfeasible nor unnecessary to…
We study sets of finite perimeter in Wiener space, and prove that at almost every point (with respect to the perimeter measure) a set of finite perimeter blows-up to a halfspace.
In this paper, we consider the quadratic nonlinear Schr\"odinger system in three space dimensions. Our aim is to obtain sharp scattering criteria. Because of the mass-subcritical nature, it is difficult to do so in terms of conserved…
Three intersection theorems are proved. First, we determine the size of the largest set system, where the system of the pairwise unions is l-intersecting. Then we investigate set systems where the union of any s sets intersect the union of…
In the paper we study the structure of hyperplanes of so called binomial partial Steiner triple systems (BSTS's, in short) i.e. of configurations with $\binom{n}{2}$ points and $\binom{n}{3}$ lines, each line of the size $3$. Consequently,…
We introduce a new concept, which we call partition expanders. The basic idea is to study quantitative properties of graphs in a slightly different way than it is in the standard definition of expanders. While in the definition of expanders…
The erosion of a set in Euclidean space by a radius r>0 is the subset of X consisting of points at distance >/-r from the complement of X. A set is resilient to erosion if it is similar to its erosion by some positive radius. We give a…
Two very important problems regarding spreading phenomena in complex topologies are the optimal selection of node sets either to minimize or maximize the extent of outbreaks. Both problems are nontrivial when a small fraction of the nodes…
We show that under certain assumptions one can derive a variant of Specker's non-contextual inequality for a system of three indistinguishable bosonic particles. The inequality states that the sum of probabilities of three pairwise…
The Steiner Multicycle problem consists of, given a complete graph, a weight function on its vertices, and a collection of pairwise disjoint non-unitary sets called terminal sets, finding a minimum weight collection of vertex-disjoint…
We establish sufficient conditions for finite convergence of the alternating projections method for two non-intersecting and potentially nonconvex sets. Our results are based on a generalization of the concept of intrinsic transversality,…
Propagation of chaos is a well-studied phenomenon and shows that weakly interacting diffusions may become independent as the system size converges to infinity. Most of the literature focuses on the case of exchangeable systems where all…
