The semi-random graph process is a single player game in which the player is initially presented an empty graph on $n$ vertices. In each round, a vertex $u$ is presented to the player independently and uniformly at random. The player then…

Let F be a family of Borel measurable functions on a complete separable metric space. The gap (or fat-shattering) dimension of F is a combinatorial quantity that measures the extent to which functions f in F can separate finite sets of…

We study the maximum size of a subset of the $n \times n$ integer grid that does not contain specific geometric configurations, a variation of the classical problems initiated by Erd\H{o}s and Purdy. While extremal problems for 3-point…

Every triangle-free planar graph on n vertices has an independent set of size at least (n+1)/3, and this lower bound is tight. We give an algorithm that, given a triangle-free planar graph G on n vertices and an integer k>=0, decides…

As a new type of series expansion, the so-called one-dimensional adaptive Fourier decomposition (AFD) and its variations (1D-AFDs) have effective applications in signal analysis and system identification. The 1D-AFDs have considerable…

A three-hidden-layer neural network with super approximation power is introduced. This network is built with the floor function ($\lfloor x\rfloor$), the exponential function ($2^x$), the step function ($1_{x\geq 0}$), or their compositions…

We prove that for any $\epsilon>0$ and any trigonometric polynomial $f$ with frequencies in the set $\{n^3: N \leq n\leq N+N^{2/3-\epsilon}\}$, one has $$ \|f\|_4 \ll \epsilon^{-1/4}\|f\|_2 $$ with implied constant being absolute. We also…

Let $V$ be the set of real common solutions to $F = (f_1, \ldots, f_s)$ in $\mathbb{R}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ and $D$ be the maximum total degree of the $f_i$'s. We design an algorithm which on input $F$ computes the dimension of $V$. Letting…

In this paper, we focus on the class of complete $S$-partite graphs, for $S$ an undirected graph possibly with self-loops, and address the problem of finding largest $2$-regular subgraphs of these graphs, which can be formulated as an…

The Doob graph $D(m,n)$ is a distance-regular graph with the same parameters as the Hamming graph $H(2m+n,4)$. The maximum independent sets in the Doob graphs are analogs of the distance-$2$ MDS codes in the Hamming graphs. We prove that…

APN functions play a central role as building blocks in the design of many block ciphers, serving as optimal functions to resist differential attacks. One of the most important properties of APN functions is their linearity, which is…

In this work, we study the classical problem of maximizing a submodular function subject to a matroid constraint. We develop deterministic algorithms that are very parsimonious with respect to querying the submodular function, for both the…

For a subset $A \subseteq [N]$, we define the representation function $ r_{A-A}(d) := \#\{(a,a') \in A \times A : d = a - a'\}$ and define $M_D(A) := \max_{1 \leq d < D} r_{A-A}(d)$ for $D>1$. We study the smallest possible value of…

Several machine learning models are defined for inputs of any size, such as graphs with different numbers of nodes and point clouds containing varying numbers of points. The universality properties of such any-dimensional models remain…

This paper is concerned with convergence estimates for fully discrete tree tensor network approximations of high-dimensional functions from several model classes. For functions having standard or mixed Sobolev regularity, new estimates…

The one-dimensional orbit set $\langle F : s \rangle$ is formed by the images of a number $s$ under the action of a semigroup generated by integer affine functions $f_i=a_i x+b_i$ taken from the set $F=\{f_1,\ldots,f_n\}$. P.Erd\H{o}s…

A perfect matching in an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ is a set of vertex disjoint edges from $E$ that include all vertices in $V$. The perfect matching problem is to decide if $G$ has such a matching. Recently Rothvo{\ss} proved the striking…

Every $n$-vertex planar triangle-free graph with maximum degree at most $3$ has an independent set of size at least $\frac{3}{8}n$. This was first conjectured by Albertson, Bollob\'as and Tucker, and was later proved by Heckman and Thomas.…

We present a new method to obtain infinite Sidon sequences, based on the discrete logarithm. We construct an infinite Sidon sequence A, with A(x)= x^{\sqrt 2-1+o(1)}. Ruzsa proved the existence of a Sidon sequence with similar counting…

In this work we describe an explicit, simple, construction of large subsets of F^n, where F is a finite field, that have small intersection with every k-dimensional affine subspace. Interest in the explicit construction of such sets, termed…
