This work is devoted to establish the strong convergence results of an iterative algorithm generated by the shrinking projection method in Hilbert spaces. The proposed approximation sequence is used to find a common element in the set of…

We introduce a new threshold model of social networks, in which the nodes influenced by their neighbours can adopt one out of several alternatives. We characterize the graphs for which adoption of a product by the whole network is possible…

The Erd\H{o}s discrepancy problem, now a theorem by T. Tao, asks whether every sequence with values plus or minus one has unbounded discrepancy along all homogeneous arithmetic progressions. We establish weighted variants of this problem,…

A primary challenge in metagenomics is reconstructing individual microbial genomes from the mixture of short fragments created by sequencing. Recent work leverages the sparsity of the assembly graph to find $r$-dominating sets which enable…

We consider the Subset Sum Ratio Problem ($SSR$), in which given a set of integers the goal is to find two subsets such that the ratio of their sums is as close to~1 as possible, and introduce a family of variations that capture additional…

Based on the superconvergent approximation at some point (depending on the fractional order $\alpha$, but not belonging to the mesh points) for Gr\"{u}nwald discretization to fractional derivative, we develop a series of high order…

In 1965, Paul Erd\H{o}s asked about the largest family $Y$ of $k$-sets in $\{ 1, \ldots, n \}$ such that $Y$ does not contain $s+1$ pairwise disjoint sets. This problem is commonly known as the Erd\H{o}s Matching Conjecture. We investigate…

In this paper, we investigate Erd\H os--Ko--Rado type theorems for families of vectors from $\{0,\pm 1\}^n$ with fixed numbers of $+1$'s and $-1$'s. Scalar product plays the role of intersection size. In particular, we sharpen our earlier…

We present a new FPTAS for the Subset Sum Ratio problem, which, given a set of integers, asks for two disjoint subsets such that the ratio of their sums is as close to $1$ as possible. Our scheme makes use of exact and approximate…

Using the sunflower method, we show that if $\theta \in (0,1) \cap \mathbb{Q}$ and $\mathcal{F}$ is a $O(n^{1/3})$-bounded $\theta$-intersecting family over $[n]$, then $\lvert \mathcal{F} \rvert = O(n)$, and that if $\mathcal{F}$ is…

Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado (EKR) type theorems yield upper bounds on the sizes of families of sets, subject to various intersection requirements on the sets in the family. Stability versions of such theorems assert that if the size of a family is…

Using techniques from Poisson approximation, we prove explicit error bounds on the number of permutations that avoid any pattern. Most generally, we bound the total variation distance between the joint distribution of pattern occurrences…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be an $r$-uniform hypergraph. The \emph{minimum positive co-degree} of $\mathcal{H}$, denoted by $\delta_{r-1}^+(\mathcal{H})$, is the minimum $k$ such that if $S$ is an $(r-1)$-set contained in a hyperedge of…

The celebrated Szemer\'edi--Trotter theorem states that the maximum number of incidences between $n$ points and $n$ lines in the plane is $O(n^{4/3})$, which is asymptotically tight. Solymosi (2005) conjectured that for any set of points…
