A set $A$ $t$-intersects a set $B$ if $A$ and $B$ have at least $t$ common elements. Families $\mathcal{A}_1, \mathcal{A}_2, \dots, \mathcal{A}_k$ of sets are cross-$t$-intersecting if, for every $i$ and $j$ in $\{1, 2, \dots, k\}$ with $i…

We study the parameterized complexity of dominating sets in geometric intersection graphs. In one dimension, we investigate intersection graphs induced by translates of a fixed pattern Q that consists of a finite number of intervals and a…

We study sum-free sets in sparse random subsets of even order abelian groups. In particular, we determine the sharp threshold for the following property: the largest such set is contained in some maximum-size sum-free subset of the group.…

Let $G$ be a group. The intersection graph of cyclic subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\mathscr I_c(G)$, is a graph having all the proper cyclic subgroups of $G$ as its vertices and two distinct vertices in $\mathscr I_c(G)$ are adjacent if and…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is independent if no two vertices from $S$ are adjacent. For $X\subseteq V(G)$, the difference of $X$ is $d(X) = |X|-|N(X)|$ and an independent set $A$ is critical if…

Let $(G,+)$ be a countable abelian group such that the subgroup $\{g+g\colon g\in G\}$ has finite index and the doubling map $g\mapsto g+g$ has finite kernel. We establish lower bounds on the upper density of a set $A\subset G$ with respect…

We study noncrossing geometric graphs and their disjoint compatible geometric matchings. Given a cycle (a polygon) P we want to draw a set of pairwise disjoint straight-line edges with endpoints on the vertices of P such that these new…

For a finite abelian group $G$ and a splitting field $K$ of $G$, let $d(G, K)$ denote the largest integer $l \in \N$ for which there is a sequence $S = g_1 \cdot ... \cdot g_l$ over $G$ such that $(X^{g_1} - a_1) \cdot ... \cdot (X^{g_l} -…

A family of sets is said to be intersecting if every pair of sets in the family have non-empty intersection. In this paper, we initiate the study of intersecting non-uniform families of sets of one of two sizes containing given subfamilies.…

We study intersection theory for differential algebraic varieties. Particularly, we study families of differential hypersurface sections of arbitrary affine differential algebraic varieties over a differential field. We prove the…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $A$ be a subset of $G \times G$ which is corner--free, meaning that there are no $x, y \in G$ and $d \in G \setminus \{0\}$ such that $(x, y)$, $(x+d, y)$, $(x, y+d) \in A$. We prove that \[|A| \le…

In this paper we show some multiplicity estimates theorems for a connected algebraic group (not necessarily commutative) $G$ over an algebraically closed subfield of $\mathbb{C}$. More specifically, under particular assumptions on the…

For an integer $d \geq 2$, a family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets is $\textit{$d$-wise intersecting}$ if for any distinct sets $A_1,A_2,\dots,A_d \in \mathcal{F}$, $A_1 \cap A_2 \cap \dots \cap A_d \neq \emptyset$, and $\textit{non-trivial}$ if…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and let $L$ be a set of nonnegative integers. The family $\mathcal{F}$ is \emph{$L$-intersecting} if $|F\cap F'|\in L$ for every two distinct members $F,F'\in\mathcal{F}$; and…

Denote the collection of all $k$-flats in $AG(n,\mathbb{F}_q)$ by $\mathscr{M}(k,n)$. Let $\mathscr{F}_1\subset\mathscr{M}(k_1,n)$ and $\mathscr{F}_2\subset\mathscr{M}(k_2,n)$ satisfy $\dim(F_1\cap F_2)\ge t$ for any $F_1\in\mathscr{F}_1$…

Consider a family $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-subsets of an ambient $(k^2-k+1)$-set such that no pair of $k$-subsets in $\mathcal{F}$ intersects in exactly one element. In this short note we show that the maximal size of such $\mathcal{F}$ is…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group with $\exp(G)$ the exponent of $G$. Then $\mathsf W(G)$ denotes the set of cross numbers of minimal zero-sum sequences over $G$ and $\mathsf w(G)$ denotes the set of all cross numbers of non-trivial…

In an abelian group G, a more sums than differences (MSTD) set is a subset A of G such that |A+A|>|A-A|. We provide asymptotics for the number of MSTD sets in finite abelian groups, extending previous results of Nathanson. The proof…

Fix $A$, a family of subsets of natural numbers, and let $G_A(n)$ be the maximum cardinality of a subset of $\{1,2,..., n\}$ that does not have any subset in $A$. We consider the general problem of giving upper bounds on $G_A(n)$ and give…

A subset $Y$ of the general linear group $\operatorname{GL}(n,q)$ is called $t$-intersecting if $\operatorname{rk}(x-y)\le n-t$ for all $x,y\in Y$, or equivalently $x$ and $y$ agree pointwise on a $t$-dimensional subspace of…
