We consider the possible sizes of large sumfree sets contained in the discrete hypercube $\{1,...,n\}^k$, and we determine upper and lower bounds for the maximal size as $n$ becomes large. We also discuss a continuous analogue in which our…
Finding a good bound on the maximal edge diameter $\Delta(d,n)$ of a polytope in terms of its dimension $d$ and the number of its facets $n$ is one of the basic open questions in polytope theory \cite{BG}. Although some bounds are known,…
For a graph $G$, its \emph{cubicity} $cub(G)$ is the minimum dimension $k$ such that $G$ is representable as the intersection graph of (axis--parallel) cubes in $k$--dimensional space. Chandran, Mannino and Oriolo showed that for a…
We prove the following superexponential distribution inequality: for any integrable $g$ on $[0,1)^{d}$ with zero average, and any $\lambda>0$ \[ |\{ x \in [0,1)^{d} \; :\; g \geq\lambda \}| \leq e^{-…
The $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ is a graph with vertex set $\{0,1\}^n$ such that there is an edge between two vertices if and only if they differ in exactly one coordinate. For any graph $H$, define $\text{ex}(Q_n,H)$ to be the maximum…
By definition, a rigid graph in $\mathbb{R}^d$ (or on a sphere) has a finite number of embeddings up to rigid motions for a given set of edge length constraints. These embeddings are related to the real solutions of an algebraic system.…
Let $k,d,\lambda\geqslant1$ be integers with $d\geqslant\lambda $. Let $m(k,d,\lambda)$ be the maximum positive integer $n$ such that every set of $n$ points (not necessarily in general position) in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ has the property that…
Let $d$ and $k$ be integers with $1 \leq k \leq d-1$. Let $\Lambda$ be a $d$-dimensional lattice and let $K$ be a $d$-dimensional compact convex body symmetric about the origin. We provide estimates for the minimum number of $k$-dimensional…
We consider the set $A_{n}=\displaystyle\cup_{j=0}^{\infty}\{\varepsilon_{j}(n)\cdot n^j\colon\varepsilon_{j}(n)\in\{0,\pm1,\pm2,...,\pm\lfloor{{n}/{2}}\rfloor\}\} $. Let $\mathcal{S}_{\mathcal{A}}= \bigcup_{a \in\mathcal{A} } A_{a}$ where…
A collection of hyperplanes $\mathcal{H}$ slices all edges of the $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ with vertex set $\{-1,1\}^n$ if, for every edge $e$ in the hypercube, there exists a hyperplane in $\mathcal{H}$ intersecting $e$ in its…
A family of axis-aligned boxes in $\er^d$ is \emph{$k$-neighborly} if the intersection of every two of them has dimension at least $d-k$ and at most $d-1$. Let $n(k,d)$ denote the maximum size of such a family. It is known that $n(k,d)$ can…
Let n(2,k) denote the largest integer n for which there exists a set A of k nonnegative integers such that the sumset 2A contains {0,1,2,...,n-1}. A classical problem in additive number theory is to find an upper bound for n(2,k). In this…
Let $S_n=\e_1+...+\e_n$, where $ \e_i $ are i.i.d. Bernoulli r.v.'s. Let $0\le r_d(n)<2d$ be the least residue of $n$ mod$(2d)$, $\bar r_d(n)= 2d -r_d(n)$ and $\b(n,d)=\max ({1\over d}, {1\over \sqrt n})[e^{- {r_d(n)^2/2 n}} +e^{- {\bar…
Define $s (n) := n^{- 1} \sigma (n)$ ($\sigma (n):=\sum_{d|n}d )$ and $\omega(n)$ is the number of prime divisors of $n$. One of the properties of $s$ plays a central role: $s (p^a) > s (q^b)$ if $p < q$ are prime numbers, with no special…
We will show in this paper that if $\lambda$ is very close to 1, then $$I(M,\lambda,m)= \sup_{u\in H^{1,n}_0(M) ,\int_M|\nabla u|^ndV=1}\int_\Omega (e^{\alpha_n |u|^\frac{n}{n-1}}-\lambda\sum\limits_{k=1}^m\frac{|\alpha_nu^\frac{n}{n-1}|^k}…
We give the first nontrivial upper and lower bounds on the maximum volume of an empty axis-parallel box inside an axis-parallel unit hypercube in $\RR^d$ containing $n$ points. For a fixed $d$, we show that the maximum volume is of the…
Let $\Lambda$ be a numerical semigroup, $\mathcal{C}\subseteq \mathbb{A}^n$ the monomial curve singularity associated to $\Lambda$, and $\mathcal{T}$ its tangent cone. In this paper we provide a sharp upper bound for the least positive…
Let $ex(Q_n, H)$ be the largest number of edges in a subgraph $G$ of a hypercube $Q_n$ such that there is no subgraph of $G$ isomorphic to $H$. We show that for any integer $k\geq 3$, $$ex(Q_n, C_{4k+2})= O(n^{\frac{5}{6} +…
We prove that for all natural numbers k,n,d with k <= d and every partition lambda of size kn with at most k parts there exists an irreducible GL(d, C)-representation of highest weight 2*lambda in the plethysm Sym^k(Sym^(2n) (C^d)). This…
An explicit Dirichlet series is obtained, which represents an analytic function of $s$ in the half-plane $\Re s>1/2$ except for having simple poles at points $s_j$ that correspond to exceptional eigenvalues $\lambda_j$ of the non-Euclidean…
