Let P be a set of n points in general position in the plane. We study the chromatic number of the intersection graph of the open triangles determined by P. It is known that this chromatic number is at least n^3/27+O(n^2), and if P is in…
Hetyei recently introduced a hyperplane arrangement (called the homogenized Linial arrangement) and used the finite field method of Athanasiadis to show that its number of regions is a median Genocchi number. These numbers count a class of…
We consider a class of theories involving an extension of the Standard Model gauge group to an {\it a priori} arbitrary number of colors, $N_c$, and derive constraints on $N_c$. One motivation for this is the string theory landscape. For…
The Four color problem is closely related to other branches of mathematics and practical applications. More than 20 of its reformulations are known, which connect this problem with problems of algebra, statistical mechanics and planning.…
An edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with consecutive integers $c_{1},\ldots,c_{t}$ is called an \emph{interval $t$-coloring} if all colors are used, and the colors of edges incident to any vertex of $G$ are distinct and form an interval of…
We take a unified approach to central limit theorems for a class of irreducible urn models with constant replacement matrix. Depending on the eigenvalue, we consider appropriate linear combinations of the number of balls of different…
Given a set of $n$ points $P$ in the plane, each colored with one of the $t$ given colors, a color-spanning set $S\subset P$ is a subset of $t$ points with distinct colors. The minimum diameter color-spanning set (MDCS) is a color-spanning…
Colored tensor models generalize matrix models in higher dimensions. They admit a 1/N expansion dominated by spherical topologies and exhibit a critical behavior strongly reminiscent of matrix models. In this paper we generalize the colored…
In this paper, we study estimation of parameters in a two-parameter Potts model with $q$ colors and coupling matrix $A_N$. We characterize concrete sufficient conditions for existence of the pseudo-likelihood estimator of the Potts model,…
In the current version of QCD the quarks are described by ordinary Dirac fields, organized in the following internal symmetry multiplets: the $SU(3)$ colour, the $SU(2)$ flavour, and broken $SU(3)$ providing the family triplets. \noindent…
Can we color the $n^3$ cells of an $n\times n\times n$ cube $L$ with $n^2$ colors in such a way that each layer parallel to each face contains each color exactly once and that the coloring is symmetric so that $L_{ij\ell}=L_{j\ell…
In this paper, based on the contributions of Tucker (1983) and Seb{\H{o}} (1992), we generalize the concept of a sequential coloring of a graph to a framework in which the algorithm may use a coloring rule-base obtained from suitable…
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…
The topological Tverberg theorem has been generalized in several directions by setting extra restrictions on the Tverberg partitions. Restricted Tverberg partitions, defined by the idea that certain points cannot be in the same part, are…
An $(m,n)$-colored mixed graph $G$ is a graph with its arcs having one of the $m$ different colors and edges having one of the $n$ different colors. A homomorphism $f$ of an $(m,n)$-colored mixed graph $G$ to an $(m,n)$-colored mixed graph…
We consider the problem of coloring graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ with $\Delta$ colors in the distributed setting with limited bandwidth. Specifically, we give a $\mathsf{poly}\log\log n$-round randomized algorithm in the CONGEST model.…
We prove several bounds on the number of incidences between two sets of multivariate polynomials of bounded degree over finite fields. From these results, we deduce bounds on incidences between points and multivariate polynomials, extending…
An \emph{interval $t$-coloring} of a graph $G$ is a proper edge-coloring with colors $1,\dots,t$ such that the colors on the edges incident to every vertex of $G$ are colored by consecutive colors. A graph $G$ is called \emph{interval…
We study a generalisation of Vizing's theorem, where the goal is to simultaneously colour the edges of graphs $G_1,\dots,G_k$ with few colours. We obtain asymptotically optimal bounds for the required number of colours in terms of the…
An \emph{interval $t$-coloring} of a multigraph $G$ is a proper edge coloring with colors $1,\dots,t$ such that the colors on the edges incident to every vertex of $G$ are colored by consecutive colors. A \emph{cyclic interval $t$-coloring}…
