Given a polynomial ring $P$ over a field $K$, an element $g \in P$, and a $K$-subalgebra $S$ of $P$, we deal with the problem of saturating $S$ with respect to $g$, i.e. computing $Sat_g(S) = S[g, g^{-1}]\cap P$. In the general case we…

Let ${\cal A}=\{A_1,\ldots, A_r\}$ be a partition of a set $\{1,\ldots,m\}\times\{1,\ldots, n\}$ into $r$ nonempty subsets, and $A=(a_{ij})$ be an $m\times n$ matrix. We say that $A$ has a pattern ${\cal A}$ provided that $a_{ij}=a_{i'j'}$…

The work considers an equivalence relation in the set of all $n\times m$ matrices with entries in the set $[p]=\{ 0,1,\ldots , p-1 \}$. In each element of the factor-set generated by this relation, we define the concept of canonical matrix,…

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 $p\in(0,1)$…

Saturating sets are combinatorial objects in projective spaces over finite fields that have been intensively investigated in the last three decades. They are related to the so-called covering problem of codes in the Hamming metric. In this…

A family $\mathcal{G}$ of sets is a(n induced) copy of a poset $P=(P,\leqslant)$ if there exists a bijection $b:P\rightarrow \mathcal{G}$ such that $p\leqslant q$ holds if and only if $b(p)\subseteq b(q)$. The induced saturation number…

In this paper, we study the saturation function $\mathrm{Sat}(n,u)$ for sequences. Saturation for sequences was introduced by Anand, Geneson, Kaustav, and Tsai (2021), who proved that $\mathrm{Sat}(n,u)=O(n)$ for two-letter sequences $u$…

An infinite permutation is a linear ordering of the set of non-negative integers. Generally, the properties of infinite permutations analogous to those of infinite words show some resemblances and some differences between permutations and…

We consider iterations of integer-valued functions $\phi$, which have no fixed points in the domain of positive integers. We define a local function $\phi_n$, which is a sub-function of $\phi$ being restricted to the subdomain $\{0, ..., n…

Most recent results in matrix completion assume that the matrix under consideration is low-rank or that the columns are in a union of low-rank subspaces. In real-world settings, however, the linear structure underlying these models is…

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…

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

The NP-complete Permutation Pattern Matching problem asks whether a permutation P (the pattern) can be matched into a permutation T (the text). A matching is an order-preserving embedding of P into T. In the Generalized Permutation Pattern…

We consider the problem of comparison-sorting an $n$-permutation $S$ that avoids some $k$-permutation $\pi$. Chalermsook, Goswami, Kozma, Mehlhorn, and Saranurak prove that when $S$ is sorted by inserting the elements into the GreedyFuture…

Checkered patterns are characterized by their square structure and the use of only two distinct colors. These colors are typically represented by two types of numerical sets: {1,0} and {1,-1}. Matrices based on {1,0} may seem identical to…

A simple permutation is one which maps no proper non-singleton interval onto an interval. We consider the enumeration of simple permutations from several aspects. Our results include a straightforward relationship between the ordinary…

Let $ex(n, P)$ be the maximum possible number of ones in any 0-1 matrix of dimensions $n \times n$ that avoids $P$. Matrix $P$ is called minimally non-linear if $ex(n, P) = \omega(n)$ but $ex(n, P') = O(n)$ for every strict subpattern $P'$…

P(n,s) denotes the number of permutations of 1,2,...n that have exactly s sequences. Canfield and Wilf [math.CO/0609704] recently showed that P(n,s) can be written as a sum of s polynomials in n. We determine these polynomials explicitly…

For a few pairs $G\subset \hat G$ of reductive groups, we study the decomposition of irreducible $\hait G$-modules into $G$-modules. In particular, we observe the saturation property for all of these pairs.

We investigate pattern-avoiding (0,1)-matrices as generalizations of pattern-avoiding permutations. Our emphasis is on 123-avoiding and 321-avoiding patterns for which we obtain exact results as to the maximum number of 1's such matrices…
