Let (k1,k2,k3,k4) be a quartet of cyclic cubic number fields sharing a common conductor c=pqr divisible by exactly three prime(power)s p,q,r. For those components k of the quartet whose 3-class group Cl(3,k) = Z/3Z x Z/3Z is elementary…

Total coloring of a graph is a coloring of its vertices and edges such that adjacent or incident elements receive distinct colors. Total coloring conjecture (stipulating that the total chromatic number of a graph $G$ is at most…

We consider triangulations of surfaces with edges painted three colors so that edges of each triangle have different colors. Such structures arise as Belyi data (or Grothendieck dessins d'enfant), on the other hand they enumerate pairs of…

We prove an elementary additive combinatorics inequality, which says that if $A$ is a subset of an Abelian group, which has, in some strong sense, large doubling, then the difference set A-A has a large subset, which has small doubling.

We propose a generalization of the color codes based on finite groups $G$. For non-abelian groups, the resulting model supports non-abelian anyonic quasiparticles and topological order. We examine the properties of these models such as…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group with exponent $n$, and let $r$ be a positive integer. Let $A$ be a $k\times m$ matrix with integer entries. We show that if $A$ satisfies some natural conditions and $|G|$ is large enough then, for each…

A group in which every element commutes with its endomorphic images is called an $E$-group. Our main result is that all 3-generator $E$-groups are abelian. It follows that the minimal number of generators of a finitely generated non-abelian…

Ramsey's theorem asserts that every $k$-coloring of $[\omega]^n$ admits an infinite monochromatic set. Whenever $n \geq 3$, there exists a computable $k$-coloring of $[\omega]^n$ whose solutions compute the halting set. On the other hand,…

We consider decompositions of the real line into pairwise disjoint Borel pieces so that each piece is closed under addition. How many pieces can there be? We prove among others that the number of pieces is either at most 3 or uncountable,…

For any positive integers $a$ and $b$, we enumerate all colored partitions made by noncrossing diagonals of a convex polygon into polygons whose number of sides is congruent to $b$ modulo $a$. For the number of such partitions made by a…

If we 2-color the vertices of a large hypercube what monochromatic substructures are we guaranteed to find? Call a set S of vertices from Q_d, the d-dimensional hypercube, Ramsey if any 2-coloring of the vertices of Q_n, for n sufficiently…

In this paper, we establish the conditions for some finite abelian groups and the family all the $k$-sets in each of them summing up to an element $x$ to form $t$-designs. We fully characterize the sufficient and necessary conditions for…

Given a representation-finite algebra B and a subalgebra A of B such that the Jacobson radicals of A and B coincide, we prove that the representation dimension of A is at most three. By a result of Igusa and Todorov, this implies that the…

A graph $H$ is common if its Ramsey multiplicity, i.e., the minimum number of monochromatic copies of $H$ contained in any $2$-edge-coloring of $K_n$, is asymptotically the same as the number of monochromatic copies in the random…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. For nontrivial proper subsets $A,B$ of $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of cardinality $s,t$, respectively, we count the number $r(A,B,B)$ of additive triples, namely elements of the form $(a, b, a+b)$ in $A \times B \times B$. For…

We address partition regularity problems for homogeneous quadratic equations. A consequence of our main results is that, under natural conditions on the coefficients $a,b,c$, for any finite coloring of the positive integers, there exists a…

We establish a link between abelian regular subgroup of the affine group, and commutative, associative algebra structures on the underlying vector space that are (Jacobson) radical rings. As an application, we show that if the underlying…

We study a generalisation of Vizing's theorem, where the goal is to simultaneously colour the edges of graphs $G_1,\dots,G_k$ with few colours. We obtain asymptotically optimal bounds for the required number of colours in terms of the…

Let $\overrightarrow{G}$ be a directed graph with no component of orderless than~$3$, and let $\Gamma$ be a finite Abelian group such that $|\Gamma|\geq 4|V(\overrightarrow{G})|$ or if $|V(\overrightarrow{G})|$ is large enough with respect…

Zero-sum problems for abelian groups and covers of the integers by residue classes, are two different active topics initiated by P. Erdos more than 40 years ago and investigated by many researchers separately since then. In an earlier…
