A regular linear line complex is a three-parameter set of lines in space, whose Pl\"ucker vectors lie in a hyperplane, which is not tangent to the Klein quadric. Our main result is a bound $O(n^{1/2}m^{3/4} + m+n)$ for the number of…

A phase transition, like the one already found on Boolean satisfiability problem by Kirkpatrick and Selman, is found on max clique problem on ER graphs. Although number of the datapoints is limited, the transition seems to obey finite size…

Indeterminate strings have received considerable attention in the recent past; see for example Christodoulakis et al 2015 and Helling et al 2017. This attention is due to their applicability in bioinformatics, and to the natural…

In this paper, we study fluctuations of conditionally centered statistics of the form $$N^{-1/2}\sum_{i=1}^N c_i(g(\sigma_i)-\mathbb{E}_N[g(\sigma_i)|\sigma_j,j\neq i])$$ where $(\sigma_1,\ldots ,\sigma_N)$ are sampled from a dependent…

The Erd\H{o}s--Gallai Theorem states that for $k\geq 3$ every graph on $n$ vertices with more than $\frac{1}{2}(k-1)(n-1)$ edges contains a cycle of length at least $k$. Kopylov proved a strengthening of this result for 2-connected graphs…

We establish a novel connection between the well-known chromatic threshold problem in extremal combinatorics and the celebrated $(p,q)$-theorem in discrete geometry. In particular, for a graph $G$ with bounded clique number and a natural…

For a constant $\gamma \in[0,1]$ and a graph $G$, let $\omega_{\gamma}(G)$ be the largest integer $k$ for which there exists a $k$-vertex subgraph of $G$ with at least $\gamma\binom{k}{2}$ edges. We show that if $0<p<\gamma<1$ then…

Let $G$ be a 2-connected $n$-vertex graph and $N_s(G)$ be the total number of $s$-cliques in $G$. Let $k\ge 4$ and $s\ge 2$ be integers. In this paper, we show that if $G$ has an edge $e$ which is not on any cycle of length at least $k$,…

Given a root system $R$, two roots are said to be \emph{strongly orthogonal} if neither their sum nor difference is a root. Gashi defined a family of graphs with vertices labelled by sums of $k$-element strongly orthogonal subsets of roots,…

Assume that $R_1,R_2,\dots,R_t$ are disjoint parallel lines in the plane. A $t$-interval (or $t$-track interval) is a set that can be written as the union of $t$ closed intervals, each on a different line. It is known that pairwise…

We consider the asymptotic normalcy of families of random variables $X$ which count the number of occupied sites in some large set. We write $Prob(X=m)=p_mz_0^m/P(z_0)$, where $P(z)$ is the generating function $P(z)=\sum_{j=0}^{N}p_jz^j$…

The clique chromatic number of a graph is the minimum number of colors required to assign to its vertex set so that no inclusion maximal clique is monochromatic. McDiarmid, Mitsche and Pra\l at proved that the clique chromatic number of the…

Using a non-perturbative method developed in a previous article (paper II) we investigate the tails of the probability distribution $P(\rho_R)$ of the overdensity within spherical cells. We show that our results for the low-density tail of…

How many cliques can a graph on $n$ vertices have with a forbidden substructure? Extremal problems of this sort have been studied for a long time. This paper studies the maximum possible number of cliques in a graph on $n$ vertices with a…

Let $\mathbf {x}_1,\ldots,\mathbf {x}_n$ be a random sample from a $p$-dimensional population distribution, where $p=p_n\to\infty$ and $\log p=o(n^{\beta})$ for some $0<\beta\leq1$, and let $L_n$ be the coherence of the sample correlation…

We show that for each $r\ge 4$, in a density range extending up to, and slightly beyond, the threshold for a $K_r$-factor, the copies of $K_r$ in the random graph $G(n,p)$ are randomly distributed, in the (one-sided) sense that the…

Alon and Shikhelman initiated the systematic study of a generalization of the extremal function. Motivated by algorithmic applications, the study of the extremal function $\text{ex}(n, K_k, K_t\text{-minor})$, i.e., the number of cliques of…

Given a simple graph $G$ and an integer $k$, the goal of $k$-Clique problem is to decide if $G$ contains a complete subgraph of size $k$. We say an algorithm approximates $k$-Clique within a factor $g(k)$ if it can find a clique of size at…

In this paper, we consider an infinite dimensional exponential family, $\mathcal{P}$ of probability densities, which are parametrized by functions in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space, $H$ and show it to be quite rich in the sense that a…

We isolate conditions on the relative size of sets of natural numbers $A,B$ that guarantee a nonempty intersection $\Delta(A)\cap\Delta(B)\ne\emptyset$ of the corresponding sets of distances. Such conditions apply to a large class of zero…
