In symbolic integration, the Risch--Norman algorithm aims to find closed forms of elementary integrals over differential fields by an ansatz for the integral, which usually is based on heuristic degree bounds. Norman presented an approach…
The classical recursive upper bound on hypergraph Ramsey numbers due to Erd\H{o}s and Rado states that for $2 \leq k < s \leq t$, \[ r_k(s,t) \leq 2^{\binom{r_{k-1}(s-1,t-1)}{k-1}}. \] In 2010, Conlon, Fox, and Sudakov introduced the…
The classical Ramsey theorem was generalized in two major ways: to the dual Ramsey theorem, by Graham and Rothschild, and to Ramsey theorems for trees, initially by Deuber and Leeb. Bringing these two lines of thought together, we prove the…
We apply Ramsey theoretic tools to show that there is a family of graphs which have tree-chromatic number at most~$2$ while the path-chromatic number is unbounded. This resolves a problem posed by Seymour.
We review Exoo's 1989 paper, which demonstrates that a lower bound for the Ramsey number $R(5,5)$ is $43$. We provide an efficient way to verify the claims in the paper, adding detailed proofs. In particular, we replace the reference to…
We perform certain alternating binomial summations with parameters that occur in the analysis of algorithms. A combination of integral and special function and special number representations is used. The results are sufficiently general to…
We present an efficient quantum algorithm for estimating Gauss sums over finite fields and finite rings. This is a natural problem as the description of a Gauss sum can be done without reference to a black box function. With a reduction…
This work considers reconstructing a target signal in a context of distributed sparse sources. We propose an efficient reconstruction algorithm with the aid of other given sources as multiple side information (SI). The proposed algorithm…
For given graphs $G$ and $H,$ the \emph{Ramsey number} $R(G,H)$ is the least natural number $n$ such that for every graph $F$ of order $n$ the following condition holds: either $F$ contains $G$ or the complement of $F$ contains $H.$ In this…
A book of size N is the union of N triangles sharing a common edge. We show that the Ramsey number of a book of size N vs. a book of size M equals 2N+3 for all N>(10^6)M. Our proof is based on counting.
We propose a recursive algorithm for identifying all finite sequences of positive integers whose product equals their sum. Our method uses solutions of strictly shorter length that are iteratively extended in pursuit of a valid solution.…
Gaitan and Clark [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 010501 (2012)] have recently shown a quantum algorithm for the computation of the Ramsey numbers using adiabatic quantum evolution. We present a quantum algorithm to compute the two-color Ramsey…
We prove recursive formulas for sums of squares and sums of triangular numbers in terms of sums of divisors functions and we give a variety of consequences of these formulas. Intermediate applications include statements about positivity of…
Given a graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, define the \emph{Gallai-Ramsey number} to be the minimum number of vertices $n$ such that any $k$-edge coloring of $K_n$ contains either a rainbow (all different colored) triangle or a…
Recursive decoding techniques are considered for Reed-Muller (RM) codes of growing length $n$ and fixed order $r.$ An algorithm is designed that has complexity of order $n\log n$ and corrects most error patterns of weight up to…
The purpose of this paper is to analyze certain statistics of a recently introduced non-uniform random tree model, biased recursive trees. This model is based on constructing a random tree by establishing a correspondence with non-uniform…
We settle the Ramsey problem $R(K_6 - e, K_4)$, also known as $R(J_6, K_4)$ and $R(K_6^-, K_4)$. Previously, the best bounds were $30 \leq R(K_6 - e, K4) \leq 32$. We prove that $R(K_6 - e, K_4) = 30$. Our technique is based on the recent…
Given a graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, the \emph{Gallai-Ramsey number} is defined to be the minimum number of vertices $n$ such that any $k$-edge coloring of $K_n$ contains either a rainbow (all different colored) copy of $G$ or a…
Ramsey algebras are algebras that induce Ramsey spaces, which are generalizations of the Ellentuck space and Milliken's space. Previous work suggests a possible local version of Ramsey algebras induced by infinite sequences. Hence, we…
We consider the estimation of a signal from the knowledge of its noisy linear random Gaussian projections, a problem relevant in compressed sensing, sparse superposition codes or code division multiple access just to cite few. There has…
