We study the different horospherical Radon transforms that arise by regarding a homogeneous tree T as a simplicial complex whose simplices are vertices V, edges E or flags F (flags are oriented edges). The ends (infinite geodesic rays…

We study multilinear generalized Radon transforms using a graph-theoretic paradigm that includes the widely studied linear case. These provide a general mechanism to study Falconer-type problems involving $(k+1)$-point configurations in…

We are given an integer $d$, a graph $G=(V,E)$, and a uniformly random embedding $f : V \rightarrow \{0,1\}^d$ of the vertices. We are interested in the probability that $G$ can be "realized" by a scaled Euclidean norm on $\mathbb{R}^d$, in…

Bennett, Iosevich and Taylor proved that compact subsets of ${\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, of Hausdorff dimensions greater than $\frac{d+1}{2}$ contain chains of arbitrary length with gaps in a non-trivial interval. In this paper we generalize…

Treewidth is a graph parameter that plays a fundamental role in several structural and algorithmic results. We study the problem of decomposing a given graph $G$ into node-disjoint subgraphs, where each subgraph has sufficiently large…

Defining distances over finite fields formally by $||x-y||:=(x_1-y_1)^2+\cdots + (x_d-y_d)^2$ for $x,y\in \mathbb{F}_q^d$, distance problems naturally arise in analogy to those studied by Erd\H{o}s and Falconer in Euclidean space. Given a…

Following previous work in the continuous setup, we construct the unitarization of the horocyclic Radon transform on a homogeneous tree X and we show that it intertwines the quasi regular representations of the group of isometries of X on…

We prove that for $d\ge 2,\, k\ge 2$, if the Hausdorff dimension of a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is greater than $\frac{d^2}{2d-1}$, then, for any given $r > 0$, there exist $(x^1, \dots, x^{k+1})\in E^{k+1}$, $(y^1, \dots,…

Many interesting problems are obtained by attempting to generalize classical results on convexity in Euclidean spaces to other convexity spaces, in particular to convexity spaces on graphs. In this paper we consider $P_3$-convexity on…

A rational number $r$ is a \textbf{realizable exponent} for a graph $H$ if there exists a finite family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$ such that $\mathrm{ex}(n,H,\mathcal{F})=\Theta(n^r)$, where $\mathrm{ex}(n,H,\mathcal{F})$ denotes the maximum…

Let $\bbK=\mathbb R, \mathbb C, \mathbb H$ be the field of real, complex or quaternionic numbers and $M_{p, q}(\bbK)$ the vector space of all $p\times q$-matrices. Let $X$ be the matrix unit ball in $M_{n-r, r}(\bbK)$ consisting of…

The Tree Decomposition Conjecture by Bar\'at and Thomassen states that for every tree $T$ there exists a natural number $k(T)$ such that the following holds: If $G$ is a $k(T)$-edge-connected simple graph with size divisible by the size of…

We prove general topological Radon-type theorems for sets in $\mathbb R^d$ or on a surface. Combined with a recent result of Holmsen and Lee, we also obtain fractional Helly theorem, and consequently the existence of weak $\varepsilon$-nets…

The celebrated Steiner tree problem is the problem of finding a set $St$ of minimum one-dimensional Hausdorff measure $H$ (length) such that $St \cup \mathcal{A}$ is connected, where $\mathcal{A} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is a given compact…

A Brownian spatial tree is defined to be a pair $(\mathcal{T},\phi)$, where $\mathcal{T}$ is the rooted real tree naturally associated with a Brownian excursion and $\phi$ is a random continuous function from $\mathcal{T}$ into…

Let $\mathcal R$ denote the generalized Radon transform (GRT), which integrates over a family of $N$-dimensional smooth submanifolds $\mathcal S_{\tilde y}\subset\mathcal U$, $1\le N\le n-1$, where an open set $\mathcal U\subset\mathbb R^n$…

Let $\phi$ be a quadratic, monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathcal O_{F,D}[t]$, where $\mathcal O_{F,D}$ is a localization of a number ring $\mathcal O_F$. In this paper, we first prove that if $\phi$ is non-square and…

Let $\phi: A\to A$ be a (not necessarily linear, additive or continuous) map of a standard operator algebra. Suppose for any $a,b\in A$ there is an algebra automorphism $\theta_{a,b}$ of $ A$ such that \begin{align*} \phi(a)\phi(b) =…

A. Iosevich and K. Taylor showed that compact subsets of $\mathbb R^d$ with Hausdorff dimension greater than $(d+1)/2$ contain trees with gaps in an open interval. Under the same dimensional threshold, we prove the analogous result where…
