Packing is a classical problem where one is given a set of subsets of Euclidean space called objects, and the goal is to find a maximum size subset of objects that are pairwise non-intersecting. The problem is also known as the Independent…
Consider the length $L_{MM}^E$ of the minimum matching of N points in d-dimensional Euclidean space. Using numerical simulations and the finite size scaling law $< L_{MM}^E > = \beta_{MM}^E(d) N^{1-1/d}(1+A/N+... )$, we obtain precise…

The nonnegative rank of a nonnegative matrix is the minimum number of nonnegative rank-one factors needed to reconstruct it exactly. The problem of determining this rank and computing the corresponding nonnegative factors is difficult;…
An $n \times n$ matrix D is a Euclidean distance matrix (EDM) if there exist $p^1, \ldots, p^n$ in some Euclidean space such that $d_{ij} = || p^i - p^j||^2$ for all $i,j=1,\ldots,n$. Let D be an EDM and let $E^{ij}$ be the $n \times n$…
Let $n,d$, and $k$ be positive integers where $n$ and $d$ are coprime. Our two main results are Theorem 1. There is a partition of the infinite interval $[kd,\infty)$ of positive integers into a family of finite sets $X$ for which the sum…
We present an approach to decomposition and factor analysis of matrices with ordinal data. The matrix entries are grades to which objects represented by rows satisfy attributes represented by columns, e.g. grades to which an image is red, a…
Problems on repeated geometric patterns in finite point sets in Euclidean space are extensively studied in the literature of combinatorial and computational geometry. Such problems trace their inspiration to Erd\H{o}s' original work on that…
Let $U$ be the unitriangular group over a finite field. We consider an interesting class of irreducible complex characters of $U$, so-called characters of depth 2. This is a next natural step after characters of maximal and submaximal…
