Let $k\ge 2$ and $\{F_n^{(k)}\}_{n\geq 2-k}$ be the sequence of $k$--generalized Fibonacci numbers whose first $k$ terms are $0,\ldots,0,0,1$ and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms. In this paper, we determine all…
In this paper we prove a new result about partitioning coloured complete graphs and use it to determine certain Ramsey numbers exactly. The partitioning theorem we prove is that for k at least 1, in every edge colouring of a complete graph…
An ordinary differential equation is said to have a superposition formula if its general solution can be expressed as a function of a finite number of particular solution. Nonlinear ODE's with superposition formulas include matrix Riccati…
Given a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ and a set of $k$-uniform hypergraphs $\mathcal{H}$, the generalized Ramsey number $f(G,\mathcal{H},q)$ is the minimum number of colors needed to edge-color $G$ so that every copy of every hypergraph $H\in…
The Ramsey number $R(s,t)$ is the least integer $n$ such that any coloring of the edges of $K_n$ with two colors produces either a monochromatic $K_s$ in one color or a monochromatic $K_t$ in the other. If $s=t$, we say that the Ramsey…
Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be two given graphs. The Ramsey number $R(G_1,G_2)$ is the least integer $r$ such that for every graph $G$ on $r$ vertices, either $G$ contains a $G_1$ or $\overline{G}$ contains a $G_2$. Parsons gave a recursive formula…
It is shown how some of the recent results of de Souza et al. [1] can be generalized to describe Hamiltonians whose eigenvalues are given as k-generalized Fibonacci numbers. Here k is an arbitrary integer and the cases considered by de…
Generalizing and simplifying recent work of Dobrinen, we show that if $\mathcal{L}$ is a finite binary relational language and $\mathcal{F}$ is a finite set of finite irreducible $\mathcal{L}$-structures, then the class $\mathcal{K} =…
For graphs $G$ and $H$, let $G\to H$ signify that any red/blue edge coloring of $G$ contains a monochromatic $H$. Let $G(N,p)$ be the random graph of order $N$ and edge probability $p$. The Ramsey thresholds for fixed graphs have received…
We compute the dimension $d_{n,r}(q) = \dim(\IR_q^r)$ of the defining module $\IR_q^r$ for the $q$-partition algebra. This module comes from $r$-iterations of Harish-Chandra restriction and induction on $\GL_n(\FF_q)$. This dimension is a…
The infinite pigeonhole principle for $k$ colors ($\mathsf{RT}_k$) states, for every $k$-partition $A_0 \sqcup \dots \sqcup A_{k-1} = \mathbb{N}$, the existence of an infinite subset~$H \subseteq A_i$ for some~$i < k$. This seemingly…
A graph is $H$-Ramsey if every two-coloring of its edges contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. Define the $F$-Ramsey number of $H$, denoted by $r_F(H)$, to be the minimum number of copies of $F$ in a graph which is $H$-Ramsey. This…
We describe a simple and yet surprisingly powerful probabilistic technique which shows how to find in a dense graph a large subset of vertices in which all (or almost all) small subsets have many common neighbors. Recently this technique…
Fibonacci polynomials are generalizations of Fibonacci numbers, so it is natural to consider polynomial versions of the various results for Fibonacci numbers. According to Hong, Pongsriiam, Bulawa, and Lee, the generating function of the…
We give an explicit combinatorial formula for some irreducible components of $GL_k\times \mathbb{S}_n$-modules of multivariate diagonal harmonics. To this end we introduce a new path combinatorial object $T_{n,s}$ allowing us to give the…
This is the first in a series of papers in which we describe explicit structural properties of spaces of diagonal rectangular harmonic polynomials in $k$ sets of $n$ variables, both as $GL_k$-modules and $S_n$-modules, as well as some of…
We combinatorially prove that the number $R(n,k)$ of permutations of length $n$ having $k$ runs is a log-concave sequence in $k$, for all $n$. We also give a new combinatorial proof for the log-concavity of the Eulerian numbers.
We prove that the formula for the diagonal approximation $\Delta_{K}$ on J. Stasheff's $n$-dimensional associahedron $K_{n+2}$ derived by the current authors in 2004 agrees with the "magical formula" for the diagonal approximation…
We discuss a Lie algebraic and differential geometry construction of solutions to some multidimensional nonlinear integrable systems describing diagonal metrics on Riemannian manifolds, in particular those of zero and constant curvature.…
