Given a set $V$, a subset $S$, and a permutation $\pi$ of $V$, we say that $\pi$ permutes $S$ if $\pi (S) \cap S = \emptyset$. Given a collection $\cS = \{V; S_1,\ldots , S_m\}$, where $S_i \subseteq V ~~(i=1,\ldots ,m)$, we say that $\cS$…
For any $\Delta$, let $k_\Delta$ be the maximum integer $k$ such that $(k+1)(k+2)\le \Delta$. We give a distributed \LOCAL algorithm that, given an integer $k < k_\Delta$, computes a valid $\Delta-k$-coloring if one exists. The algorithm…
Over the last two decades, frameworks for distributed-memory parallel computation, such as MapReduce, Hadoop, Spark and Dryad, have gained significant popularity with the growing prevalence of large network datasets. The Massively Parallel…
We present a sorting algorithm that works in-place, executes in parallel, is cache-efficient, avoids branch-mispredictions, and performs work O(n log n) for arbitrary inputs with high probability. The main algorithmic contributions are new…
A PSCA$(v, t, \lambda)$ is a multiset of permutations of the $v$-element alphabet $\{0, \dots, v-1\}$ such that every sequence of $t$ distinct elements of the alphabet appears in the specified order in exactly $\lambda$ permutations. For $v…
For a planar graph $H$, let $\operatorname{\mathbf{N}}_{\mathcal P}(n,H)$ denote the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $n$-vertex planar graph. In this paper, we prove that $\operatorname{\mathbf{N}}_{\mathcal P}(n,P_7)\sim{4\over…
Motivated by the separability problem in quantum systems $2\otimes4$, $3\otimes3$ and $2\otimes2\otimes2$, we study the maximal (proper) faces of the convex body, $S_1$, of normalized separable states in an arbitrary quantum system with…
The assignments of a set of $m$ items into $n$ clusters of prescribed sizes $k_1,\dots,k_n$ can be encoded as the vertices of the partition polytope $\mathrm{PP}(k_1,\dots,k_n)$. We prove that, if $K = \max\{k_1,\dots,k_n\}$, then the…
A family of axis-aligned boxes in $\er^d$ is \emph{$k$-neighborly} if the intersection of every two of them has dimension at least $d-k$ and at most $d-1$. Let $n(k,d)$ denote the maximum size of such a family. It is known that $n(k,d)$ can…
Let $G$ be a planar graph without 4-cycles and 5-cycles and with maximum degree $\Delta\ge 32$. We prove that $\chi_{\ell}(G^2)\le \Delta+3$. For arbitrarily large maximum degree $\Delta$, there exist planar graphs $G_{\Delta}$ of girth 6…
Let \(\mathcal{P}(n)\) be the set of partitions of the positive integer \(n\). For \(\alpha=(\alpha_1,...,\alpha_t) \in \mathcal{P}(n)\) define the diagonal sequence \(\delta(\alpha)=(d_k(\alpha))_{k \geq 1}\) via \( d_k(\alpha) =…
In 1979, Hakimi and Schmeichel considered the problem of maximizing the number of cycles of a given length in an $n$-vertex planar graph. They precisely determined the maximum number of triangles and $4$-cycles and presented a conjecture…
Given a sequence $S=(s_1,s_2,\ldots,s_p)$, $p\geq 2$, of non-decreasing integers, an $S$-packing coloring of a graph $G$ is a partition of its vertex set into $p$ disjoint sets $V_1,\ldots, V_p$ such that any two distinct vertices of $V_i$…

Finding the maximum number of induced cycles of length $k$ in a graph on $n$ vertices has been one of the most intriguing open problems of Extremal Graph Theory. Recently Balogh, Hu, Lidick\'{y} and Pfender answered the question in the case…
A subspace partition $\Pi$ of $V=V(n,q)$ is a collection of subspaces of $V$ such that each 1-dimensional subspace of $V$ is in exactly one subspace of $\Pi$. The size of $\Pi$ is the number of its subspaces. Let $\sigma_q(n,t)$ denote the…
