Recently, Forbes, Kumar and Saptharishi [CCC, 2016] proved that there exists an explicit $d^{O(1)}$-variate and degree $d$ polynomial $P_{d}\in VNP$ such that if any depth four circuit $C$ of bounded formal degree $d$ which computes a…

We develop the theory of Abelian functions associated with cyclic trigonal curves by considering two new cases. We investigate curves of genus six and seven and consider whether it is the trigonal nature or the genus which dictates certain…

In a recent breakthrough Campos, Griffiths, Morris and Sahasrabudhe obtained the first exponential improvement of the upper bound on the diagonal Ramsey numbers since 1935. We shorten their proof, replacing the underlying book algorithm…

We define a class of computable functions over real numbers using functional schemes similar to the class of primitive and partial recursive functions defined by G\"odel and Kleene. We show that this class of functions can also be…

The cube graph Q_n is the skeleton of the n-dimensional cube. It is an n-regular graph on 2^n vertices. The Ramsey number r(Q_n, K_s) is the minimum N such that every graph of order N contains the cube graph Q_n or an independent set of…

Given positive integers $n$ and $k$, a $k$-term semi-progression of scope $m$ is a sequence $(x_1,x_2,...,x_k)$ such that $x_{j+1} - x_j \in \{d,2d,\ldots,md\}, 1 \le j \le k-1$, for some positive integer $d$. Thus an arithmetic progression…

We prove a new Elekes-Szab\'o type estimate on the size of the intersection of a Cartesian product $A\times B\times C$ with an algebraic surface $\{f=0\}$ over the reals. In particular, if $A,B,C$ are sets of $N$ real numbers and $f$ is a…

A graph is called Rank-Ramsey if (i) Its clique number is small, and (ii) The adjacency matrix of its complement has small rank. We initiate a systematic study of such graphs. Our main motivation is that their constructions, as well as…

We prove, for an arbitrary finite root system, the periodicity conjecture of Al.B.Zamolodchikov concerning Y-systems, a particular class of functional relations arising in the theory of thermodynamic Bethe ansatz. Algebraically, Y-systems…

The $q$-color Ramsey number of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is the minimum integer $N$ such that any $q$-coloring of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $N$ vertices contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. The study of these numbers is one…

We show that the relationship discovered by Oppermann and Thomas between triangulations of cyclic polytopes and the higher Auslander algebras of type $A$, denoted $A_{n}^{d}$, is an incredibly rich one. The \emph{higher Stasheff--Tamari…

For integers $1 < k < d-1$ and $r \ge k+2$, we establish new lower bounds on the maximum number of points in $[n]^d$ such that no $r$ lie in a $k$-dimensional affine (or linear) subspace. These bounds improve on earlier results of…

The induced Ramsey number $r_{\mathrm{ind}}(G,H)$ is defined as the minimum order of a graph $F$ on such that any 2-coloring of its edges with red and blue leads to either a red induced copy of $G$ or a blue induced copy of $H$. Motivated…

The Reeb space of a function or a map on a manifold is defined as the space of all connected components of preimages and represents the manifold compactly. In fact, Reeb spaces are fundamental and useful tools in geometric theory of…

The Ramsey number is of vital importance in Ramsey's theorem. This paper proposed a novel methodology for constructing Ramsey graphs about R(3,10), which uses Artificial Bee Colony optimization(ABC) to raise the lower bound of Ramsey number…

We answer two extremal questions about odd cycles that naturally arise in the study of sparse pseudorandom graphs. Let $\Gamma$ be an $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph, i.e., $n$-vertex, $d$-regular graphs with all nontrivial eigenvalues in the…

A function $f\colon\mathbb R\to\mathbb R$ is called \emph{$k$-monotone} if it is $(k-2)$-times differentiable and its $(k-2)$nd derivative is convex. A point set $P\subset\mathbb R^2$ is \emph{$k$-monotone interpolable} if it lies on a…

Ramsey theory is an active research area in combinatorics whose central theme is the emergence of order in large disordered structures, with Ramsey numbers marking the threshold at which this order first appears. For generalized Ramsey…

A new Goodman-Sharma modification of the Baskakov operator is presented for approximation of bounded and continuous on $[0,\,\infty)$ functions. In our study on the approximation error of the proposed operator we prove direct and strong…

Quadratic algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras which include the symmetry algebras of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions as special cases. The superintegrable systems are exactly solvable physical systems in classical…
