Exponential growth occurs when the growth rate of a given quantity is proportional to the quantity's current value. Surprisingly, when exponential growth data is plotted as a simple histogram disregarding the time dimension, a remarkable…

We study a multiplicative function analogue of Linnik's problem on the least prime in an arithmetic progression. Let $h\colon \mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}$ be a multiplicative function, and let $a \pmod q$ be a reduced residue…

In this paper we highlight some enumerative results concerning matroids of low rank and prove the tail-ends of various sequences involving the number of matroids on a finite set to be log-convex. We give a recursion for a new, slightly…

We study largest singular values of large random matrices, each with mean of a fixed rank $K$. Our main result is a limit theorem as the number of rows and columns approach infinity, while their ratio approaches a positive constant. It…

We show that the class of bicircular matroids has only a finite number of excluded minors. Key tools used in our proof include representations of matroids by biased graphs and the recently introduced class of quasi-graphic matroids. We show…

The rate equation for an arbitrary mth order growth or decay reaction can be expressed in terms of the q-exponential function, with q equal to m. The analysis suggests that a wide variety of reaction rate (kinetic) processes and models, in…

Given integers $2\le t \le k+1 \le n$, let $g_k(t,n)$ be the minimum $N$ such that every red/blue coloring of the $k$-subsets of $\{1, \ldots, N\}$ yields either a $(k+1)$-set containing $t$ red $k$-subsets, or an $n$-set with all of its…

We show that for any $\varepsilon > 0$, prime $q$ sufficiently large with respect to $1 / \varepsilon$ and residue class $(a,q) = 1$, there exist two integers $m, n \leq q^{5/2 + \varepsilon}$ with $m \equiv n \equiv a \pmod{q}$ such that…

Let Q_K=(Q,<_Q)$ be a strongly K-dense linear order of size K for a suitable cardinal K. We prove, for all integers m > 1 that there is a finite value t_m^+ such that the set of all m-tuples from Q can be divided into t_m^+ many classes,…

We show that a set function $\nu$ satisfies the gross substitutes property if and only if its homogeneous generating polynomial $Z_{q,\nu}$ is a Lorentzian polynomial for all positive $q \le 1$, answering a question of Eur-Huh. We achieve…

We present a proof of Roth's theorem that follows a slightly different structure to the usual proofs, in that there is not much iteration. Although our proof works using a type of density increment argument (which is typical of most proofs…

We use directed graphs called "syzygy quivers" to study the asymptotic growth rates of the dimensions of the syzygies of representations of finite dimensional algebras. For any finitely generated representation of a monomial algebra, we…

Define the sequence $\{b_n\}$ by $b_0=1,b_1=1, b_2=2,b_3=1$, and $$b_n=\begin{cases} \frac{b_{n-1}b_{n-3}-b_{n-2}^2}{b_{n-4}}&\textrm{if}~ n\not\equiv 0\pmod 3, \frac{b_{n-1}b_{n-3}-3b_{n-2}^2}{b_{n-4}}&\textrm{if}~ n\equiv 0\pmod 3. We…

Thin sums matroids were introduced to extend the notion of representability to non-finitary matroids. We give a new criterion for testing when the thin sums construction gives a matroid. We show that thin sums matroids over thin families…

For a matroid of rank $r$ and a non-negative integer $k$, an element is called $k$-loose if every circuit containing it has size greater than $r-k$. Zaslavsky and the author characterized all binary matroids with a $1$-loose element. In…

In this paper, we define a class of additive random growth models whose growth is at least and at most linear and prove an asymptotic shape theorem for these models. This proof generalizes already known proofs for the classical contact…

We give simple criteria to identify the exponential order of magnitude of the absolute value of the determinant for wide classes of random matrix models, not requiring the assumption of invariance. These include Gaussian matrices with…

We analyse the recursive formula found for various Ext groups for $\SL_2(k)$, $k$ a field of characteristic $p$, and derive various generating functions for these groups. We use this to show that the growth rate for the cohomology of…

Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3 \exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $ \sup_{x\in…

Karlin's (1982) Theorem 5.2 shows that linear systems alternating between growth and mixing phases have lower asymptotic growth with greater mixing. Here this result is extended to linear differential equations that combine site-specific…
