A general position map $f:K\to M$ of a $k$-dimensional simplicial complex to a $2k$-dimensional manifold (for $k=1$, of a graph to a surface) is a $\mathbb Z_2$-embedding if $|f\sigma \cap f\tau|$ is even for any non-adjacent $k$-faces…
Let $G$ be a regular graph of degree $d$ and let $A\subset V(G)$. Say that $A$ is $\eta$-closed if the average degree of the subgraph induced by $A$ is at least $\eta d$. This says that if we choose a random vertex $x\in A$ and a random…
In this paper we study the number of incidences between $m$ points and $n$ varieties in $\mathbb{F}^d$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is an arbitrary field, assuming the incidence graph contains no copy of $K_{s,s}$. We also consider the analogous…
We develop a general theory of Cartesian and non-Cartesian polynomials on products of complex spaces $\mathbb{C}^{n_1} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{C}^{n_k}$. We prove that, for any fixed degree $d \ge 2$, a (Zariski) generic polynomial is…
Many combinatorial properties of a point set in the plane are determined by the set of possible partitions of the point set by a line. Their essential combinatorial properties are well captured by the axioms of oriented matroids. In fact,…
The $\gamma_2$ norm of a real $m\times n$ matrix $A$ is the minimum number $t$ such that the column vectors of $A$ are contained in a $0$-centered ellipsoid $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}^m$ which in turn is contained in the hypercube $[-t, t]^m$.…
We study a special case of the configuration model, in which almost all the vertices of the graph have degree $2$. We show that the graph has a very peculiar and interesting behaviour, in particular when the graph is made up by a vast…
Zarankiewicz's problem asks for the largest possible number of edges in a graph that does not contain a $K_{u,u}$ subgraph for a fixed positive integer $u$. Recently, Fox, Pach, Sheffer, Sulk and Zahl considered this problem for…
The classical Zarankiewicz problem, which concerns the maximum number of edges in a bipartite graph without a forbidden complete bipartite subgraph, motivates a direct analogue for hypergraphs. Let $K_{s_1,\ldots, s_r}$ be the complete…
The problem of Zarankiewicz asks for the maximum number of edges in a bipartite graph on $n$ vertices which does not contain the complete bipartite graph $K_{k,k}$ as a subgraph. A classical theorem due to K\H{o}v\'ari, S\'os, and Tur\'an…
Nowhere dense classes of graphs are classes of sparse graphs with rich structural and algorithmic properties, however, they fail to capture even simple classes of dense graphs. Monadically stable classes, originating from model theory,…
For a graph $H$, a graph $G$ is an $H$-graph if it is an intersection graph of connected subgraphs of some subdivision of $H$. $H$-graphs naturally generalize several important graph classes like interval or circular-arc graph. This class…
There is no known polynomial-time algorithm for graph isomorphism testing, but elementary combinatorial "refinement" algorithms seem to be very efficient in practice. Some philosophical justification is provided by a classical theorem of…
In this paper we prove that for every $s\geq 2$ and every graph $H$ the following holds. Let $G$ be a graph with average degree $\Omega_H(s^{C|H|^2})$, for some absolute constant $C>0$, then $G$ either contains a $K_{s,s}$ or an induced…
We investigate the existence of Boolean degree $d$ functions on the Grassmann graph of $k$-spaces in the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. For $d=1$ several non-existence and classification results are known, and no non-trivial examples are…
A subset $M$ of the edges of a graph $G$ is a matching if no two edges in $M$ are incident. A maximal matching is a matching that is not contained in a larger matching. A subset $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices is a…
Basic path-matchings, introduced by Cunningham and Geelen (FOCS 1996), are a common generalization of matroid intersection and non-bipartite matching. The main results of this paper are a new algebraic characterization of basic…
We study the Zarankiewicz problem for $r$-partite, $r$-uniform intersection hypergraphs arising from $r$ families of axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with prescribed directions $F_1, \dots, F_r \subseteq \{1, \dots, d\}$. This extends…
We introduce and study Polish topologies on various spaces of countable enumerated groups, where an enumerated group is simply a group whose underlying set is the set of natural numbers. Using elementary tools and well known examples from…
A matching M is a dominating induced matching of a graph, if every edge of the graph is either in $M$ or has a common end-vertex with exactly one edge in $M$. The concept of complete dominating induced matching is introduced as graphs where…
