We derive a procedure for computing an upper bound on the number of equiangular lines in various Euclidean vector spaces by generalizing the classical pillar decomposition developed by (Lemmens and Seidel, 1973); namely, we use linear…
We show that recent multivariate generalizations of the Araki-Lieb-Thirring inequality and the Golden-Thompson inequality [Sutter, Berta, and Tomamichel, Comm. Math. Phys. (2016)] for Schatten norms hold more generally for all unitarily…
A natural link between the notions of majorization and strongly Sperner posets is elucidated. It is then used to obtain a variety of consequences, including new R\'enyi entropy inequalities for sums of independent, integer-valued random…
New upper bounds on the relative entropy are derived as a function of the total variation distance. One bound refines an inequality by Verd\'{u} for general probability measures. A second bound improves the tightness of an inequality by…
We give an overpartition analogue of Bressoud's combinatorial generalization of the G\"ollnitz-Gordon theorem for even moduli in general case. Let $\widetilde{O}_{k,i}(n)$ be the number of overpartitions of $n$ whose parts satisfy certain…
We prove that an infinite (bounded) involution lattice and even pseudo--Kleene algebra can have any number of congruences between $2$ and its number of elements or equalling its number of subsets, regardless of whether it has as many ideals…
The Standard Model of particle physics may seem complicated and arbitrary, but it has hidden patterns that are revealed by the relationship between three "grand unified theories": theories that unify forces and particles by extending the…
We provide a doubly exponential upper bound in $p$ on the size of forbidden pivot-minors for symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}$ of linear rank-width at most $p$. As a corollary, we obtain a doubly…
We construct a sequence of subset partition graphs satisfying the dimension reduction, adjacency, strong adjacency, and endpoint count properties whose diameter has a superlinear asymptotic lower bound. These abstractions of polytope graphs…
We prove the density hypothesis for congruence subgroups of an irreducible uniform lattice in $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})^d$, extending previous results on the spherical density hypothesis to bound multiplicities of non-tempered…
A generalization of the $SU(2)$--spin systems on a lattice and their continuum limit to an arbitrary compact group $G$ is discussed. The continuum limits are, in general, non--relativistic $\sigma$--model type field theories targeted on a…
The Mermin-Klyshko inequality for n spin-1/2 particles and two dichotomic observables is generalized to n spin-s particles and two maximal observables. It is shown that some multiparty multilevel Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states [A.…
We investigate the maximum length of a chain of subsemigroups in various classes of semigroups, such as the full transformation semigroups, the general linear semigroups, and the semigroups of order-preserving transformations of finite…
Contrary to the expectation arising from the tanglegram Kuratowski theorem of \'E. Czabarka, L.A. Sz\'ekely and S. Wagner [SIAM J. Discrete Math. 31(3): 1732--1750, (2017)], we construct an infinite antichain of planar tanglegrams with…
A set of Grand Unified Theories based upon the gauge groups $SU(5)_\L \times SU(5)_\R$, $SO(10)_\L \times SO(10)_\R$ and $SU(4)_\C \times SU(4)_\L \times SU(4)_\R$ is explored. Several novel features distinguish these theories from the…
The commonly accepted notion of a weak unified coupling $\alpha_X \approx 0.04$, based on the assumption of the MSSM--spectrum, is questioned. It is suggested that the four--dimensional unified string coupling should very likely have an…
In this short paper, we prove the following generalization of a result of Methuku and P\'{a}lv\"{o}lgyi. Let $P$ be a poset, then there exists a constant $C_{P}$ with the following property. Let $k$ and $n$ be arbitrary positive integers…
We prove new cases of reasonable bounds for the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem both over $\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z}$ with $N$ prime and over the integers. In particular, we prove reasonable bounds for Szemer\'edi's theorem in the integers…
Let $A \subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ be a finite set. It is known that the sumset $NA$ has predictable size ($\vert NA\vert = P_A(N)$ for some $P_A(X) \in \mathbb{Q}[X]$) and structure (all of the lattice points in some finite cone other than all…
We generalize several classical theorems in extremal combinatorics by replacing a global constraint with an inequality which holds for all objects in a given class. In particular we obtain generalizations of Tur\'an's theorem, the…
