The relations M(kappa,lambda,mu)->B [resp. B(sigma)] meaning that if A subset [kappa]^lambda with |A|=kappa is mu-almost disjoint then A has property B [resp. has a sigma-transversal] had been introduced and studied under GCH by Erdos and…
Minor modifications are given to prove the Main Theorem under the Blaschke (instead of Carleson) condition as well as a small historical comment.
A formula which only involves a partition number and elementary functions is derived by applying Burnside's Lemma to the set of idempotent maps from a set to itself. One side involves a summation over a set closely related to the partition…
The number partitioning problem is a classic problem of combinatorial optimization in which a set of $n$ numbers is partitioned into two subsets such that the sum of the numbers in one subset is as close as possible to the sum of the…
Working in the context of restricted forms of the Axiom of Choice, we consider the problem of splitting the ordinals below $\lambda$ of cofinality $\theta$ into $\lambda$ many stationary sets, where $\theta < \lambda$ are regular cardinals.…
Hornberger and Vacchini [Phys. Rev. A82, 036101 (2010); arxiv:0907.3018] claim that the specific collisional momentum decoherence, pointed out in my recent work [Phys. Rev. A80, 064104 (2009); arXiv:0905.3908], is already described by their…
We give an FPTAS for approximating the partition function of the hard-core model for bipartite graphs when there is sufficient imbalance in the degrees or fugacities between the sides $(L,R)$ of the bipartition. This includes, among others,…
We correct a mistake in a lemma in the paper cited in the title and show that it did not affect any of the other results of the paper. To this end we prove results on linearly disjoint field extensions that do not seem to be commonly known.…
Polynomial convergence bounds are considered for left, right, and split preconditioned GMRES. They include the cases of Weighted and Deflated GMRES for a linear system Ax = b. In particular, the case of positive definite A is considered.…
This article was prepared in connection with the 2009 Barnett lecture at the University of Cincinnati, and deals with various classes of fractal sets and analysis on them.
We explore the properties of non-piecewise syndetic sets with positive upper density, which we call "discordant", in countably infinite amenable (semi)groups. Sets of this kind are involved in many questions of Ramsey theory and manifest…
In this note I prove a~claim on determinants of some special tridiagonal matrices. Together with my result about Fibonacci partitions (arXiv:math/0307150), this claim allows one to prove one (slightly strengthened) Shallit's result about…
The inequality of Clauser and Horne [ Phys. Rev. D 10, 526 (1974)], intended to overcome the limited scope of other inequalities to deterministic theories, is shown to have a resticted validity even in case of perfect detectors and perfect…
We provide a simple proof for the union-closed sets conjecture, a long-standing open problem in set theory with immediate applications to graph theory, number theory, and order-theory.
A general method based on the polynomial deformations of the Lie algebra sl(2,R) is proposed in order to exhibit the quasi-exactly solvability of specific Hamiltonians implied by quantum physical models. This method using the…
Theorem 2 of A. Kercheval, "Denjoy minimal sets are far from affine", Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems 22 (2002), 1803-1812 is corrected by adding a C^2 bound to the hypotheses.
Recently in joint work with E. Sert, we proved sharp boundedness results on discrete fractional integral operators along binary quadratic forms. Present work vastly enhances the scope of those results by extending boundedness to bivariate…
Green [Geometric and Functional Analysis 15 (2005), 340--376] established a version of the Szemer\'edi Regularity Lemma for abelian groups and derived the Removal Lemma for abelian groups as its corollary. We provide another proof of his…
This is a non-standard paper, containing some problems, mainly in model theory, which I have, in various degrees, been interested in. Sometimes with a discussion on what I have to say; sometimes, of what makes them interesting to me,…
This paper is concerned with the relationship between the discrete and the continuous decreasing minimization problem on base-polyhedra. The continuous version (under the name of lexicographically optimal base of a polymatroid) was solved…
