In a large, possibly infinite population, each subject is colored red with probability $p$, independently of the others. Then, a finite sub-population is selected, possibly as a function of the coloring. The imbalance in the sub-population…

A collection of graphs is \textit{nearly disjoint} if every pair of them intersects in at most one vertex. We prove that if $G_1, \dots, G_m$ are nearly disjoint graphs of maximum degree at most $D$, then the following holds. For every…

This paper develops an algorithm for upper- and lower-bounding the value function for a class of linear time-varying games subject to convex control sets. In particular, a two-player zero-sum differential game is considered where the…

Systems of equations with sets of integers as unknowns are considered. It is shown that the class of sets representable by unique solutions of equations using the operations of union and addition $S+T=\makeset{m+n}{m \in S, \: n \in T}$ and…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H = (V, E)$ is $k$-partite if $V$ can be partitioned into $k$ sets $V_1, \ldots, V_k$ such that every edge in $E$ contains precisely one vertex from each $V_i$. We call such a graph $n$-balanced if $|V_i| = n$ for…

We introduce the Red-Blue Separation problem on graphs, where we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ whose vertices are colored either red or blue, and we want to select a (small) subset $S \subseteq V$, called red-blue separating set, such that…

It is consistent for every (1 <= n< omega) that (2^omega = omega_n) and there is a function (F:[omega_n]^{< omega}-> omega) such that every finite set can be written at most (2^n-1) ways as the union of two distinct monocolored sets. If GCH…

Let $G$ be a connected graph and $W$ be a set of vertices of $G$. The representation multiset of a vertex $v$ with respect to $W$, $r_m (v|W)$, is defined as a multiset of distances between $v$ and the vertices in $W$. If $r_m (u |W) \neq…

We propose in this paper a polynomial representation of TU-games, fuzzy measures, capacities, and more generally set functions. Our representation needs a countably infinite set of players and the natural ordering of finite sets of…

We study so-called invariant games played with a fixed number $d$ of heaps of matches. A game is described by a finite list $\mathcal{M}$ of integer vectors of length $d$ specifying the legal moves. A move consists in changing the current…

For a graph whose vertex set is a finite set of points in the Euclidean $d$-space consider the closed (open) balls with diameters induced by its edges. The graph is called a (an open) Tverberg graph if these closed (open) balls intersect.…

Given a graph G, a colouring is an assignment of colours to the vertices of G so that no two adjacent vertices are coloured the same. If all colour classes have size at most t, then we call the colouring t-bounded, and the t-bounded…

We consider sets of operations on a set A that are closed under permutation of variables, addition of dummy variables and composition. We describe these closed sets in terms of a Galois connection between operations and systems of pointed…

Let $S$ be a finite set of geometric objects partitioned into classes or \emph{colors}. A subset $S'\subseteq S$ is said to be \emph{balanced} if $S'$ contains the same amount of elements of $S$ from each of the colors. We study several…

We show that any $2$-coloring of $\mathbb{N}$ contains infinitely many monochromatic sets of the form $\{x,y,xy,x+y\},$ and more generally monochromatic sets of the form $\{x_i,\prod x_i,\sum x_i: i\leq k\}$ for any $k\in\mathbb{N}.$ Along…

A pair $\{T_0,T_1\}$ of disjoint collections of $k$-subsets (blocks) of a set $V$ of cardinality $v$ is called a $t$-$(v,k)$ trade or simply a $t$-trade if every $t$-subset of $V$ is included in the same number of blocks of $T_0$ and $T_1$.…
