This article resolves two related problems in Ramsey theory on the integers. We show that for any finite coloring of the set of natural numbers, there exist numbers $a$ and $b$ for which the configuration $\{a, b, ab, a(b+1)\}$ is…
We prove a Central Limit Theorem for the sequence of random compositions of a two-color randomly reinforced urn. As a consequence, we are able to show that the distribution of the urn limit composition has no point masses.
We consider colored compositions where only some parts are allowed different colors, depending on their locations in the composition. The counting sequences are obtained through generating functions. Connections to many other combinatorial…
Recently, using machinery's from Ergodic theory, Z. Lian, and R. Xiao proved if $P$ is any polynomial with no constant term, then for every finite coloring of $\mathbb{N}$, there exists two infinite subsets $B,C$ of $\mathbb{N}$ such that…
There are many extremely challenging problems about existence of monochromatic arithmetic progressions in colorings of groups. Many theorems hold only for abelian groups as results on non-abelian groups are often much more difficult to…
We present a self-contained proof of a strong version of van der Waerden's Theorem. By using translation invariant filters that are maximal with respect to inclusion, a simple inductive argument shows the existence of "piecewise…
In this paper we prove that for any finite coloring of N there are lambda,rho in N such that infinitely many pairs (x,y),(u,v) in N^2 satisfy the sets {lambda x, lambda y, x y, lambda(x+y)} and {u+rho, v+rho, u v+rho, u+v} being…
We investigate the occurrence of additive and multiplicative structures in random subsets of the natural numbers. Specifically, for a Bernoulli random subset of $\mathbb{N}$ where each integer is included independently with probability…
In Euclidean Ramsey Theory usually we are looking for monochromatic configurations in the Euclidean space, whose points are colored with a fixed number of colors. In the canonical version, the number of colors is arbitrary, and we are…
A central limit theorem for arrays of symmetric row-wise exchangeable random variables is presented. The result is valid for finite and infinite extendable and non-extendable sequences. Unlike most reported versions of the central limit…
We show that various analogs of Hindman's Theorem fail in a strong sense when one attempts to obtain uncountable monochromatic sets: Theorem 1: There exists a colouring $c:\mathbb R\rightarrow\mathbb Q$, such that for every…
It is consistent for every (1 <= n< omega) that (2^omega = omega_n) and there is a function (F:[omega_n]^{< omega}-> omega) such that every finite set can be written at most (2^n-1) ways as the union of two distinct monocolored sets. If GCH…
Answering a conjecture of A. Sisto, J. Sahasrabudhe proved the exponential version of the Schur theorem: for every finite coloring of the naturals, there exists a monochromatic copy of $\{x,y,x^y:x\neq y\},$ which initiates the study of…
We derive new bounds of the remainder in a combinatorial central limit theorem without assumptions on independence and existence of moments of summands. For independent random variables our theorems imply Esseen and Berry-Esseen type…
Given a finite coloring (or finite partition) of the free semigroup $A^+$ over a set $A$, we consider various types of monochromatic factorizations of right sided infinite words $x\in A^\omega$. Some stronger versions of the usual notion of…
We show that Fermat's last theorem and a combinatorial theorem of Schur on monochromatic solutions of $a+b=c$ implies that there exist infinitely many primes. In particular, for small exponents such as $n=3$ or $4$ this gives a new proof of…
We prove a central limit theorem for the length of the longest subsequence of a random permutation which follows one of a class of repeating patterns. This class includes every fixed pattern of ups and downs having at least one of each,…
We have observations concerning the set theoretic strength of the following combinatorial statements without the axiom of choice. 1. If in a partially ordered set, all chains are finite and all antichains are countable, then the set is…
In this paper, we consider infinite words that arise as fixed points of primitive substitutions on a finite alphabet and finite colorings of their factors. Any such infinite word exhibits a "hierarchal structure" that will allow us to…
Using an averaged generating function for coloured hard-dimers, some random variables of interest are studied. The main result lies in the fact that all their probability distributions obey a central limit theorem.
