Let $\Delta=\Delta_1\times\ldots\times \Delta_d\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, where $\mathbb{R}^n=\mathbb{R}^{n_1}\times\cdots\times\mathbb{R}^{n_d}$ with each $\Delta_i\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n_i}$ a non-degenerate simplex of $n_i$ points. We prove…
Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a finite set of integer points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which we assume has many symmetries, and let $P\in\mathbb{R}^d$ be a fixed point. We calculate the distances from $P$ to the points in $\mathcal{S}$ and compare the…
Let $\mathcal A$ be the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular graph on $N$ vertices, and we denote its eigenvalues by $\lambda_1\geq \lambda_2\cdots \geq \lambda_{N}$. For $N^{2/3}\ll d\leq N/2$, we prove optimal rigidity estimates of…
Cusick's conjecture on the binary sum of digits $s(n)$ of a nonnegative integer $n$ states the following: for all nonnegative integers $t$ we have \[ c_t=\lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}\frac 1N\left\lvert\{n<N:s(n+t)\geq s(n)\}\right\rvert>1/2.…
Let $f(n,v,e)$ denote the maximum number of edges in a $3$-uniform hypergraph not containing $e$ edges spanned by at most $v$ vertices. One of the most influential open problems in extremal combinatorics then asks, for a given number of…
An $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph is a $d$ regular graph on $n$ vertices in which the absolute value of any nontrivial eigenvalue is at most $\lambda$. For any constant $d \geq 3$, $\epsilon>0$ and all sufficiently large $n$ we show that there is a…
We prove that for $d\geq 0$ and $k\geq 2$, for any subset $A$ of a discrete cube $\{0,1\}^d$, the $k-$higher energy of $A$ (the number of $2k-$tuples $(a_1,a_2,\dots,a_{2k})$ in $A^{2k}$ with $a_1-a_2=a_3-a_4=\dots=a_{2k-1}-a_{2k}$) is at…
We prove anti-concentration bounds for the inner product of two independent random vectors. For example, we show that if $A,B$ are subsets of the cube $\{\pm 1\}^n$ with $|A| \cdot |B| \geq 2^{1.01 n}$, and $X \in A$ and $Y \in B$ are…
Given $d,s \in \mathbb{N}$, a finite set $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}$ and polynomials $\varphi_1, \dots, \varphi_{s} \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ such that $1 \leq deg \varphi_i \leq d$ for every $1 \leq i \leq s$, we prove that \[ |A^{(s)}| +…
For an interconnection network $G$, the {\it $\omega$-wide diameter} $d_\omega(G)$ is the least $\ell$ such that any two vertices are joined by $\omega$ internally-disjoint paths of length at most $\ell$, and the {\it $(\omega-1)$-fault…
Let $\Lambda$ be any integral lattice in Euclidean space. It has been shown that for every integer $n>0$, there is a hypersphere that passes through exactly $n$ points of $\Lambda$. Using this result, we introduce new lattice invariants and…
The $n$-dimensional hypercube has $n+1$ distinct eigenvalues $n-2i$, $0\leq i\leq n$, with corresponding eigenspaces $U_i(n)$. In 2021 it was proved by the author that if a function with non-empty support belongs to the direct sum…
We give essentially tight bounds for, $\nu(d,k)$, the maximum number of distinct neighbourhoods on a set $X$ of $k$ vertices in a graph with twin-width at most~$d$. Using the celebrated Marcus-Tardos theorem, two independent works [Bonnet…
It is verified that the number of vertices in a $d$-dimensional cubical pseudomanifold is at least $2^{d+1}$. Using Adin's cubical $h$-vector, the generalized lower bound conjecture is established for all cubical 4-spheres, as well as for…
We briefly review known results on upper bounds for the minimal domination number $\gamma_n$ of a hypercube of dimension $n$, then present a new method for constructing dominating sets. Write $n =2^{\hat{n}}-1 +{\check{n}}$ with $0\leq…
We consider $q$-ary (linear and nonlinear) block codes with exactly two distances: $d$ and $d+\delta$. Several combinatorial constructions of optimal such codes are given. In the linear (but not necessary projective) case, we prove that…
For $k\geq 2$, we give a detailed exposition of the superior $k$-highly composite numbers. We then consider the function \[f_k(n)=\frac{\log d_k(n)\log\log n}{\log k\log n},\quad n\geq 3\] which has a maximum value $\lambda(k)$ at a…
In this paper, we study the following two hypercube coloring problems: Given $n$ and $d$, find the minimum number of colors, denoted as ${\chi}'_{d}(n)$ (resp. ${\chi}_{d}(n)$), needed to color the vertices of the $n$-cube such that any two…
Let $n \ge 2$ be an integer and $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_n$ be non-zero algebraic numbers. Let $b_1, \ldots , b_n$ be integers with $b_n \not= 0$, and set $B = \max\{3, |b_1|, \ldots , |b_n|\}$. For $j =1, \ldots, n$, set $h^* (\alpha_j) =…
In this paper, we prove a number of results about pattern avoidance in graphs with bounded metric dimension or edge metric dimension. We show that the maximum possible number of edges in a graph of diameter $D$ and edge metric dimension $k$…
