We show that for every large enough integer $N$, there exists an $N$-point subset of $L_1$ such that for every $D>1$, embedding it into $\ell_1^d$ with distortion $D$ requires dimension $d$ at least $N^{\Omega(1/D^2)}$, and that for every…

The partition problem is a well-known basic NP-complete problem. We mainly consider the optimization version of it in this paper. The problem has been investigated from various perspectives for a long time and can be solved efficiently in…

A vertex subset of a graph is called a distance-$k$ independent set if the distance between any two of its distinct vertices is at least $k + 1$. For all $n,k \geq 1$, we determine the minimum possible number of inclusion-wise maximal…

We consider a stochastic aggregation model on Z^d. Start with particles located at the vertices of the lattice, initially distributed according to the product Bernoulli measure with parameter \mu. In addition, there is an aggregate, which…

One-dimensional run-and-tumble processes may converge towards some localized non-equilibrium steady state when the two velocities and/or the two switching rates are space-dependent. A long dynamical trajectory can be then analyzed via the…

Let X be a set definable in a sharply o-minimal structure. We consider the problem of counting the number of points where X intersects algebraic varieties V over Q of dimension k < codim X, as a function of T := deg(V) + h(V), where h(V) is…

Let $X$ be a $2$-dimensional subshift of finite type generated by a finite set of forbidden blocks (of finite size). We give an algorithm for generating the elements of the shift space using sequence of finite matrices (of increasing size).…

For any natural number $d$ and positive number $\varepsilon$, we present a point set in the $d$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^d$ that intersects every axis-aligned box of volume greater than $\varepsilon$. These point sets are very easy to…

The emergence of clustering and coarsening in crowded ensembles of self-propelled agents is studied using a lattice model in one-dimension. The persistent exclusion process, where particles move at directions that change randomly at a low…

The paper presents some bipartite graph $L_{k,n}$, so called $(k,n)$-level graph, that arise by taking $k$-th and $(n-k)$-th levels of $n$-dimensional Boolean algebra. Two results are establised: (1) precise description of a distance (a…

We study the problem of computing the \textsc{Maxima} of a set of $n$ $d$-dimensional points. For dimensions 2 and 3, there are algorithms to solve the problem with order-oblivious instance-optimal running time. However, in higher…

We study internal diffusion limited aggregation on $\mathbb{Z}$, where a cluster is grown incrementally by adding, for each random walk dispatched from the origin, the first site it reaches outside the cluster. We assume that the increment…
