We sharpen to nearly optimal the known asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational points on a geometrically irreducible hypersurface over a (large) finite field. The proof involves a Bertini-type probabilistic…
We give an exponential improvement to the diagonal van der Waerden numbers for $r\ge 5$ colors.
The multicolor Ramsey number problem asks, for each pair of natural numbers $\ell$ and $t$, for the largest $\ell$-coloring of a complete graph with no monochromatic clique of size $t$. Recent works of Conlon-Ferber and Wigderson have…
We obtain best possible upper and lower bounds for the Lodge-Ramanujan and DeTemple-Wang approximations to the nth Harmonic Number
We study an analogue of the Ramsey multiplicity problem for additive structures, in particular establishing the minimum number of monochromatic 3-APs in 3-colorings of $\mathbb{F}_3^n$ as well as obtaining the first non-trivial lower bound…
This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic…
We give a new bound on the number of collinear triples for two arbitrary subsets of a finite field. This improves on existing results which rely on the Cauchy inequality. We then us this to provide a new bound on trilinear and quadrilinear…
We give an exponential lower bound for Berge-Ramsey problems.
In this paper, we give a survey of the known results concerning the tensor rank of the multiplication in finite fields and we establish new asymptotical and not asymptotical upper bounds about it.
We provide polynomial lower bounds for residual finiteness of residually finite, finitely generated solvable groups that admit infinite order elements in the Fitting subgroup of strict distortion at least exponential. For this class of…
In this paper we generalize constructions in two recent works of Ding, Heng, Zhou to any field $\mathbb{F}_q$, $q$ odd, providing infinite families of minimal codes for which the Ashikhmin-Barg bound does not hold.
We say that a subset $M$ of $\mathbb R^n$ is exponentially Ramsey if there are $\epsilon>0$ and $n_0$ such that $\chi(\mathbb R^n,M)\ge(1+\epsilon)^n$ for any $n>n_0$, where $\chi(\mathbb R^n,M)$ stands for the minimum number of colors in a…
We establish some upper and lower bounds for the number of rational points of Prym varieties over finite fields.
We derive a lower bound on the size of finite non-cyclic quotients of the braid group that is superexponential in the number of strands. We also derive a similar lower bound for nontrivial finite quotients of the commutator subgroup of the…
We present a recursive algorithm for finding good lower bounds for the classical Ramsey numbers. Using notions from this algorithm we then give some results for generalized Schur numbers, which we call Issai numbers.
Much recent progress in hypergraph Ramsey theory has focused on constructions that lead to lower bounds for the corresponding Ramsey numbers. In this paper, we consider applications of these results to Gallai colorings. That is, we focus on…
We establish a new bound for short character sums in finite fields, particularly over two-dimensional grids in $\mathbb{F}_{p^3}$ and higher-dimensional lattices in $\mathbb{F}_{p^d}$, extending an earlier work of Mei-Chu Chang on Burgess…
For two metric spaces $\mathbb X$ and $\mathcal Y$, the chromatic number $\chi(\mathbb X;\mathcal Y)$ of $\mathbb X$ with forbidden $\mathcal Y$ is the smallest $k$ such that there is a coloring of the points of $\mathbb X$ with $k$ colors…
In this short note, we provide a new infinite family of $K_{2, t+1}$-free graphs for each prime power $t$. Using these graphs, we show that it is possible to partition the edges of $K_n$ into parts, such that each part is isomorphic to our…
The generalized Ramsey number $f(n, p, q)$ is the smallest number of colors needed to color the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ so that every $p$-clique spans at least $q$ colors. Erd\H{o}s and Gy\'arf\'as showed that $f(n, p, q)$ grows…
