In this paper we develop Host--Kra and inverse Gowers theory for abelian groups of bounded exponent. We show that the Host--Kra factors $Z^{\leq k}(\mathrm{X})$ associated with actions of such groups admit extensions with the structure of…

We study the two inference problems of detecting and recovering an isolated community of \emph{general} structure planted in a random graph. The detection problem is formalized as a hypothesis testing problem, where under the null…

We address the Riemann and Cauchy problems for systems of $n$ conservation laws in $m$ unknowns which are subject to $m-n$ constraints ($m\geq n$). Such constrained systems generalize systems of conservation laws in standard form to include…

We use an entropy based method to study two graph maximization problems. We upper bound the number of matchings of fixed size $\ell$ in a $d$-regular graph on $N$ vertices. For $\frac{2\ell}{N}$ bounded away from 0 and 1, the logarithm of…

An inequality proved firstly by Remak and then generalized by Friedman shows that there are only finitely many number fields with a fixed signature and whose regulator is less than a prescribed bound. Using this inequality, Astudillo, Diaz…

In [Distrance-regular Cayley graphs on dihedral groups, J. Combin. Theory Ser B 97 (2007) 14--33], Miklavi\v{c} and Poto\v{c}nik proposed the problem of characterizing distance-regular Cayley graphs, which can be viewed as an extension of…

We determine two new infinite families of Cayley graphs that admit colour-preserving automorphisms that do not come from the group action. By definition, this means that these Cayley graphs fail to have the CCA (Cayley Colour Automorphism)…

Let $\Gamma_d(q)$ denote the group whose Cayley graph with respect to a particular generating set is the Diestel-Leader graph $DL_d(q)$, as described by Bartholdi, Neuhauser and Woess. We compute both $Aut(\Gamma_d(q))$ and…

Barber and Erde asked the following question: if $B$ generates $\mathbb Z^d$ as an additive group, then must the extremal sets for the vertex/edge-isoperimetric inequality on the Cayley graph $\operatorname{Cay}(\mathbb Z^d,B)$ form a…

Answering a question of Benjamini, we present an isometry-invariant random partition of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 3$, into infinite connected indistinguishable pieces, such that the adjacency graph defined on the pieces is…

Classifying groups up to quasi-isometry is a fundamental problem in geometric group theory. In the context of hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups, one of the key invariants in this classification is the boundary at infinity. F.…

Huang proved that every set of more than half the vertices of the $d$-dimensional hypercube $Q_d$ induces a subgraph of maximum degree at least $\sqrt{d}$, which is tight by a result of Chung, F\"uredi, Graham, and Seymour. Huang asked…

In this paper, we establish a coupling lemma for standard families in the setting of piecewise expanding interval maps with countably many branches. Our method merely requires that the expanding map satisfies Chernov's one-step expansion at…

We are interested in various aspects of spectral rigidity of Cayley and Schreier graphs of finitely generated groups. For each pair of integers $d\geq 2$ and $m \ge 1$, we consider an uncountable family of groups of automorphisms of the…

For $k\ge 1$, the $k$-independence number $\alpha_k$ of a graph is the maximum number of vertices that are mutually at distance greater than $k$. The well-known inertia and ratio bounds for the (1-)independence number $\alpha(=\alpha_1)$ of…

Preservers and additive spanners are sparse (hence cheap to store) subgraphs that preserve the distances between given pairs of nodes exactly or with some small additive error, respectively. Since real-world networks are prone to failures,…

In the Maximize Phylogenetic Diversity problem, we are given a phylogenetic tree that represents the genetic proximity of species, and we are asked to select a subset of species of maximum phylogenetic diversity to be preserved through…

We consider the mathematical model of gas trapping in deep polar ice (firns), which consists of a parabolic partial differential equation, that can degenerate at one boundary extreme. In [1], we considered all the coefficients to be…

We consider the complexity of the firefighter problem where b>=1 firefighters are available at each time step. This problem is proved NP-complete even on trees of degree at most three and budget one (Finbow et al.,2007) and on trees of…

This article lays the foundations for an analogue of geometric group theory that studies actions on graphs by right quasigroups, including racks and quandles. We study markings of graphs that realize racks, and we introduce (di)graph…
