The Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Conjecture states that every graph with average degree exceeding $k-1$ contains every tree with $k$ edges as a subgraph. We prove that there are $\delta>0$ and $k_0\in\mathbb N$ such that the conjecture holds for every…
Say that a subset S of the plane is a "circle-center set" if S is not a subset of a line, and whenever we choose three noncollinear points from S, the center of the unique circle through those three points is also an element of S. A problem…
We give a simple proof of T. Stehling's result, that in any normal tiling of the plane with convex polygons with number of sides not less than six, all tiles except the finite number are hexagons.
By the theorem of Mantel $[5]$ it is known that a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4} \rfloor+1$ edges must contain a triangle. A theorem of Erd\H{o}s gives a strengthening: there are not only one, but at least…
By a simple method we prove the following conjecture on Sharygin triangles: there is only one Sharygin triangle (up to an isometry) whose vertices are chosen from the set of vertices of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle of radius 1.
A famous conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os states that every graph with average degree more than $k - 1$ contains all trees with $k$ edges as subgraphs. We prove that the Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture holds approximately, if the size of the…
In this paper we show that every set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive density contains $B+C$ for some pair $B,C$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, settling a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. The proof features two different decompositions of…
The Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s conjecture, one of the central conjectures in extremal combinatorics, states that for any integer $m\geq 6,$ if a 3-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices contains no $m$ vertices spanning at least $m-3$ edges, then…
A rational triangle is a triangle with sides of rational lengths. In this short note, we prove that there exists a unique pair of a rational right triangle and a rational isosceles triangle which have the same perimeter and the same area.…
We classify triangles that can be tiled only into a square number of congruent triangles, settling Erd\H{o}s Problem 633.
Ulam asked in 1945 if there is an everywhere dense \emph{rational set}, i.e. a point set in the plane with all its pairwise distances rational. Erd\H os conjectured that if a set $S$ has a dense rational subset, then $S$ should be very…
Paul Erd\H{o}s posed the question of whether every measurable planar set of infinite Lebesgue measure contains the four vertices of an isosceles trapezoid of unit area. In this paper, we provide an affirmative answer to this question.…
This note gives an elementary proof that the symmetric groups possess only one exceptional symmetry. I am referring to the fact that the outer automorphism group of the symmetric group $S_n$ is trivial unless $n=6$ and the outer…
Erd\H{o}s and Fishburn studied the maximum number of points in the plane that span $k$ distances and classified these configurations, as an inverse problem of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem. We consider the analogous problem for…
A set $S\subset \mathbb{N}$ is a Sidon set if all pairwise sums $s_1+s_2$ (for $s_1, s_2\in S$, $s_1\leq s_2$) are distinct. A set $S\subset \mathbb{N}$ is an asymptotic basis of order 3 if every sufficiently large integer $n$ can be…
The Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s Conjecture states that if $G$ is a simple graph of order $n$ with average degree more than $k-2,$ then $G$ contains every tree of order $k$. In this paper, we prove that Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s Conjecture is true for…
We show that if a finite point set $P\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ has the fewest congruence classes of triangles possible, up to a constant $M$, then at least one of the following holds. (1) There is a $\sigma>0$ and a line $l$ which contains…
We give simpler algebraic proofs of uniqueness for several Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado results, i.e., that the canonically intersecting families are the only largest intersecting families. Using these techniques, we characterize the largest partially…
A well-known conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os states that every graph with average degree exceeding $m-1$ contains every tree with $m$ edges as a subgraph. We propose a variant of this conjecture, which states that every graph of maximum…
A degree-regular triangulation is one in which each vertex has identical degree. Our main result is that any such triangulation of a (possibly non-compact) surface $S$ is geometric, that is, it is combinatorially equivalent to a geodesic…
