We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…

Let $EG_r(n,k)$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph with no Berge cycles of length $k$ or longer. In the first part of this work, we have found exact values of $EG_r(n,k)$ and described the structure…

The famous T. Suffridge polynomials have many extremal properties: the maximality of coefficients when the leading coefficient is maximal; the zeros of the derivative are located on the unit circle; the maximum radius of stretching the unit…

Let $f_r(n)$ represent the minimum number of complete $r$-partite $r$-graphs required to partition the edge set of the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices. The Graham-Pollak theorem states that $f_2(n)=n-1$. An upper bound of…

An almost self-centered graph is a connected graph of order $n$ with exactly $n-2$ central vertices, and an almost peripheral graph is a connected graph of order $n$ with exactly $n-1$ peripheral vertices. We determine (1) the maximum girth…

Given $n$ polynomials $p_1, \dots, p_n$ of degree at most $n$ with $\|p_i\|_\infty \le 1$ for $i \in [n]$, we show there exist signs $x_1, \dots, x_n \in \{-1,1\}$ so that \[\Big\|\sum_{i=1}^n x_i p_i\Big\|_\infty < 30\sqrt{n}, \] where…

Let D be a Dyck path chosen uniformly from the set of Dyck paths with 2n steps. We prove that the sequence of the exponential moments of the maximum of D normalized by the square root of n converges in the limit of infinite n, and therefore…

Recently, variants of many classical extremal theorems have been proved in the random environment. We, complementing existing results, extend the Erd\H{o}s-Gallai Theorem in random graphs. In particular, we determine, up to a constant…

We characterize the bipartite graphs that minimize the (first-degree based) entropy, among all bipartite graphs of given size, or given size and (upper bound on the) order. The extremal graphs turn out to be complete bipartite graphs, or…

We generalize a result of Eisenbud-Huneke-Ulrich on the maximal graded shifts of a module with prescribed annihilator and prove a linear regularity bound for ideals in a polynomial ring depending only on the first $p - c$ steps in the…

The extremal values of multivariate trigonometric polynomials are of interest in fields ranging from control theory to filter design, but finding the extremal values of such a polynomial is generally NP-Hard. In this paper, we develop…

The main purpose of this paper is to prove the uniqueness of a graph attaining the maximum of the number of independent sets over all $k$-regular graphs on $n$ vertices for $2k|n$.

In this paper we derive an upper bound for the degree of the strict invariant algebraic curve of a polynomial system in the complex project plane under generic condition. The results are obtained through the algebraic multiplicities of the…

It is shown that extremal magnetic black hole solutions of N = 2 supergravity coupled to vector multiplets $X^\Lambda$ with a generic holomorphic prepotential $F(X^\Lambda)$ can be described as supersymmetric solitons which interpolate…

We obtain extremal majorants and minorants of exponential type for a class of even functions on $\R$ which includes $\log |x|$ and $|x|^\alpha$, where $-1 < \alpha < 1$. We also give periodic versions of these results in which the majorants…

A set of edges $X\subseteq E(G)$ of a graph $G$ is an edge general position set if no three edges from $X$ lie on a common shortest path. The edge general position number ${\rm gp}_{\rm e}(G)$ of $G$ is the cardinality of a largest edge…

For $f$ a Rademacher or Steinhaus random multiplicative function, we prove that $$ \max_{\theta \in [0,1]} \frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \Bigl| \sum_{n \leq N} f(n) \mathrm{e} (n \theta) \Bigr| \gg \sqrt{\log N} ,$$ asymptotically almost surely as $N…
