The notion of a Galvin orientation of a line graph is introduced, generalizing the idea used by Galvin in his landmark proof of the list-edge-colouring conjecture for bipartite graphs. If L(G) has a proper Galvin orientation with respect to…

We give a natural sufficient condition for an intersection graph of compact convex sets in R^d to have a balanced separator of sublinear size. This condition generalizes several previous results on sublinear separators in intersection…

We prove that for any planar convex body C there is a positive integer m with the property that any finite point set P in the plane can be three-colored such that there is no translate of C containing at least m points of P, all of the same…

In this paper we show that every sufficiently large family of convex bodies in the plane has a large subfamily in convex position provided that the number of common tangents of each pair of bodies is bounded and every subfamily of size five…

We provide theorems containnig both Kakutani and Browder fixed points theorems as immediate corollaries, as well as Michael and Browder selection theorems. For this purpose we introduce convex structures more general than those of locally…

The famous concyclicity theorem stated by John H. Conway is here reconsidered by means of a parametrisation of the associated triangular configuration with arbitrary triplets of real numbers ($\alpha$;$\beta$;$\gamma$). This theorem, thus…

We introduce and investigate a novel notion of transversely affine foliation, comparing and contrasting it to the previous ones in the literature. We then use it to give an extension of the classic Hadamard's theorem from Riemannian…

Let $X$ be a convex curve in the plane (say, the unit circle), and let $\mathcal S$ be a family of planar convex bodies, such that every two of them meet at a point of $X$. Then $\mathcal S$ has a transversal $N\subset\mathbb R^2$ of size…

We prove the following optimal colorful Tverberg-Vrecica type transversal theorem: For prime r and for any k+1 colored collections of points C^l of size |C^l|=(r-1)(d-k+1)+1 in R^d, where each C^l is a union of subsets (color classes) C_i^l…

Hindman's celebrated Finite Sums Theorem, and its high-dimensional version due to Milliken and Taylor, are extended from covers of countable sets to covers of arbitrary topological spaces with Menger's classic covering property. The methods…

We show analogues of the classical Krein-Milman theorem for several ordered algebraic structures, especially in a semilattice (non-linear) framework. In that case, subsemilattices are seen as convex subsets, and for our proofs we use…

We prove two colorful Carath\'eodory theorems for strongly convex hulls, generalizing the colorful Carat\'eodory theorem for ordinary convexity by Imre B\'ar\'any, the non-colorful Carath\'eodory theorem for strongly convex hulls by the…

Combining Ky Fan's theorem with ideas of Greene and Matousek we prove a generalization of Dol'nikov's theorem. Using another variant of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem due to Bacon and Tucker, we also prove the presence of all possible completely…

The purpose of this note is to prove the existence of a remarkable structure in an iterated sumset derived from a set $P$ in a Cartesian square $\mathbb{F}_p^n\times\mathbb{F}_p^n$. More precisely, we perform horizontal and vertical sums…

In this paper we prove a strong Hahn-Banach theorem: separation of disjoint convex sets by linear forms is possible without any further conditions, if the target field $\R$ is replaced by a more general real closed extension field. From…

A generalization of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem to Stiefel manifolds is considered. This theorem is applied to derive bounds on $d$ that guarantee-for a given set of $m$ measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$-the existence of $k$ mutually orthogonal…

A generalization of the Hartogs theorem is proved for a class of Tubes structures. We assume that the intervening commutative Lie algebra admits at least a number of globally solvable generators greater or equal to the structure…

We prove a conjecture of D. Oberlin on the dimension of unions of lines in $\mathbb{R}^n$. If $d \geq 1$ is an integer, $0 \leq \beta \leq 1$, and $L$ is a set of lines in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with Hausdorff dimension at least $2(d-1) + \beta$,…

The Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres conjecture states that any set of more than $2^{n-2}$ points in the plane with no three on a line contains the vertices of a convex $n$-gon. Erd\H{o}s, Tuza, and Valtr strengthened the conjecture by stating that any…

A tuple $(G_1,\dots,G_n)$ of graphs on the same vertex set of size $n$ is said to be Hamilton-universal if for every map $\chi: [n]\to[n]$ there exists a Hamilton cycle whose $i$-th edge comes from $G_{\chi(i)}$. Bowtell, Morris, Pehova and…
