Using the Semple bundle construction, we derive an intersection-theoretic formula for the number of simultaneous contacts of specified orders between members of a generic family of degree $d$ plane curves and finitely many fixed curves. The…
We give several algorithms addressing computations of intersections of conjugate subgroups.
Using elementary methods, we prove new formulas for $\operatorname{pp}(n)$, the number of plane partitions of $n$, $\operatorname{pp}_r(n)$, the number of plane partitions of $n$ with at most $r$ rows, $\operatorname{pp}^s(n)$, the number…
Given a finite set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, Tverberg's theorem guarantees the existence of partitions of this set into parts whose convex hulls intersect. We introduce a graph structured on the family of Tverberg partitions of a given…
We give a new and elementary proof that the number of elastic collisions of a finite number of balls in the Euclidean space is finite. We show that if there are $n$ balls of equal masses and radii 1, and at the time of a collision between…
We give a brief summary of present bounds on the size of possible extra-dimensions from collider experiments.
Explicit expression for quasi-triviality of scalar non-linear PDE is under consideration.
An $(n,k)$-Sperner partition system is a collection of partitions of some $n$-set, each into $k$ nonempty classes, such that no class of any partition is a subset of a class of any other. The maximum number of partitions in an…
We provide a variational derivation of the limit shape of minimal difference partitions and discuss the link with exclusion statistics. Also see arXiv:0707.2312 for a related paper.
We establish an upper bound on the cardinality of a minimal generating set for the fundamental group of a large family of connected, balanced simplicial complexes and, more generally, simplicial posets.
We consider a problem of bounding the maximal possible multiplicity of a zero at of some expansions $\sum a_i F_i(x)$, at a certain point $c,$ depending on the chosen family $\{F_i \}$. The most important example is a polynomial with $c=1.$…
We prove a lemma that is useful to get upper bounds for the number of partitions without a given subsum. From this we can deduce an improved upper bound for the number of sets represented by the (unrestricted or into unequal parts)…
In this paper we show a a proof by explicit bijections of the famous Kirkman-Cayley formula for the number of dissections of a convex polygon. Our starting point is the bijective correspondence between the set of nested sets made by \(k\)…
We give a tight bound for the triple intersection numbers of Paley graphs. In particular, we show that any three vertices have a common neighbor in Paley graphs of order larger than 25.
Let R be a family of n axis-parallel rectangles with packing number p-1, meaning that among any p of the rectangles, there are two with a non-empty intersection. We show that the union complexity of R is at most O(n+p^2), and that the…
An intersecting $r$-uniform straight line system is an intersecting linear system whose lines consist of $r$ points on straight line segment of $\mathbb{R}^2$ and any two lines share a point. Recently, the author [A. V\'azquez-\'Avila,…
We introduce series-triangular graph embeddings and show how to partition point sets with them. This result is then used to improve the upper bound on the number of Steiner points needed to obtain compatible triangulations of point sets.…
We derive the lower bound for Frobenius number of symmetric (not complete intersection) semigroups generated by four elements.
Fix an integer n>=1. Suppose that a simple polygon is the union of n triangles whose vertices along the common boundary are arranged cyclically. How many sides can such a union -- to be called regular -- have at most? This gives OEIS…
We establish the upper bound in the multiplicity conjecture of Herzog, Huneke and Srinivasan for the codimension three almost complete intersections. We also give some partial results in the case where I is the aci linked to a complete…
