We consider spin systems with nearest-neighbor interactions on an $n$-vertex $d$-dimensional cube of the integer lattice graph $\mathbb{Z}^d$. We study the effects that exponential decay with distance of spin correlations, specifically the…

Oscillator Ising machines (OIMs) are networks of coupled oscillators that seek the minimum energy state of an Ising model. Since many NP-hard problems are equivalent to the minimization of an Ising Hamiltonian, OIMs have emerged as a…

The independence number of a tree decomposition is the size of a largest independent set contained in a single bag. The tree-independence number of a graph $G$ is the minimum independence number of a tree decomposition of $G$. As shown…

Let $H$ be a graph allowing loops as well as vertex and edge weights. We prove that, for every triangle-free graph $G$ without isolated vertices, the weighted number of graph homomorphisms $\hom(G, H)$ satisfies the inequality \[ \hom(G, H…

We develop a spectral approach to Sidorenko-type inequalities and apply it to establish sharp edge-spectral supersaturation results. Let $H$ be a bipartite graph with $v$ vertices and $e$ edges, where $v\le e$, and write $M(G)=2e(G)$. We…

In this paper, we establish a couple of results on extremal problems in bipartite graphs. Firstly, we show that every sufficiently large bipartite graph with average degree $D$ and with $n$ vertices on each side has a balanced independent…

In 1960, Asplund and Gr\"unbaum proved that every intersection graph of axis-parallel rectangles in the plane admits an $O(\omega^2)$-coloring, where $\omega$ is the maximum size of a clique. We present the first asymptotic improvement over…

We consider the problem of finding the spectrum of an operator taking the form of a low-rank (rank one or two) non-normal perturbation of a well-understood operator, motivated by a number of problems of applied interest which take this…

A celebrated result of Johansson in graph theory states that every triangle-free graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ can be properly colored with $O(\Delta/\ln\Delta)$ colors, improving upon the "greedy bound" of $\Delta+1$ coloring in general…
