Given a finite poset $\mathcal P$, we say that a family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of $[n]$ is $\mathcal P$-saturated if $\mathcal F$ does not contain an induced copy of $\mathcal P$, but adding any other set to $\mathcal F$ creates an induced…

We obtain a nontrivial upper bound for almost all elements of the sequences of real numbers which are multiplicative and at the prime indices are distributed according to the Sato--Tate density. Examples of such sequences come from…

We introduce a new family of meta-Fibonacci sequences $(f(n))_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, governed by the recurrence relation $$f(n)=af(n-u_{n}-1)+bf(n-u_{n}-2),$$ where $\mathbf{u}=(u_{n})_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ is a sequence with values $0,1$. Our…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct fixed prime numbers and $(n_i)_{i\geq 0}$ the sequence of consecutive integers of the form $p^a\cdot q^b$ with $a,b\ge 0$. Tijdeman gave a lower bound (1973) and an upper bound (1974) for the gap size…

The notion of a $\tau$-exceptional sequence was introduced by Buan and Marsh in 2018 as a generalisation of an exceptional sequence for finite dimensional algebras. We calculate the number of complete $\tau$-exceptional sequences over…

The sequence of middle divisors is shown to be unbounded. For a given number $n$, $a_{n,0}$ is the number of divisors of $n$ in between $\sqrt{n/2}$ and $\sqrt{2n}$. We explicitly construct a sequence of numbers $n(i)$ and a list of…

Bille and G{\o}rtz (2011) recently introduced the problem of substring range counting, for which we are asked to store compactly a string $S$ of $n$ characters with integer labels in ([0, u]), such that later, given an interval ([a, b]) and…

We present an automated reasoning framework for synthesizing recursion-free programs using saturation-based theorem proving. Given a functional specification encoded as a first-order logical formula, we use a first-order theorem prover to…

Given a graph $H$, we say that an edge-coloured graph $G$ is $H$-rainbow saturated if it does not contain a rainbow copy of $H$, but the addition of any non-edge in any colour creates a rainbow copy of $H$. The rainbow saturation number…

For a fixed graph $F$ and an integer $t$, the \dfn{rainbow saturation number} of $F$, denoted by $sat_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(F))$, is defined as the minimum number of edges in a $t$-edge-colored graph on $n$ vertices which does not contain a…

The supersaturation problem for a given graph $F$ asks for the minimum number $h_F(n,q)$ of copies of $F$ in an $n$-vertex graph with $ex(n,F)+q$ edges. Subsequent works by Rademacher, Erd\H{o}s, and Lov\'{a}sz and Simonovits determine the…

An integer sequence is said to be 3-free if no three elements form an arithmetic progression. Following the greedy algorithm, the Stanley sequence $S(a_0,a_1,\ldots,a_k)$ is defined to be the 3-free sequence $\{a_n\}$ having initial terms…

For a given graph $F$, the $F$-saturation number of a graph $G$, denoted by $ {sat}(G, F)$, is the minimum number of edges in an edge-maximal $F$-free subgraph of $G$. In 2017, Kor\'andi and Sudakov determined $ {sat}({G}(n, p), K_r)$…

Given a family ${\mathcal F}$ and a host graph $H$, a graph $G\subseteq H$ is ${\mathcal F}$-saturated relative to $H$ if no subgraph of $G$ lies in ${\mathcal F}$ but adding any edge from $E(H)-E(G)$ to $G$ creates such a subgraph. In the…
