We generalize the notion of Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constants -- along the same lines we generalized in earlier work the notion of Davenport constants -- to a ``higher degree" and obtain various lower and upper bounds. These bounds are…

Levenshtein first introduced the sequence reconstruction problem in $2001$. In the realm of combinatorics, the sequence reconstruction problem is equivalent to determining the value of $N(n,d,t)$, which represents the maximum size of the…

The discrete distribution of the length of longest increasing subsequences in random permutations of $n$ integers is deeply related to random matrix theory. In a seminal work, Baik, Deift and Johansson provided an asymptotics in terms of…

Many canonical machine learning problems boil down to a convex optimization problem with a finite sum structure. However, whereas much progress has been made in developing faster algorithms for this setting, the inherent limitations of…

The main motivation for this article is to explore the connections between the existence of certain combinatorial patterns (as in van der Corputs's theorem on arithmetic progressions of length $3$) with well-known tools and theorems for…

We investigate the number of squares in a very broad family of binary recurrence sequences with $u_{0}=1$. We show that there are at most two distinct squares in such sequences (the best possible result), except under such very special…

Deep neural networks generalize well despite being heavily overparameterized, in apparent contradiction with classical learning theory based on uniform convergence over fixed hypothesis spaces. Uniform bounds over the entire parameter space…

Exceptional sequences are fundamental to investigate the derived categories of finite dimensional algebras. The aim of this note is to classify all the complete exceptional sequences over the path algebra of a Dynkin quiver of type $A_n$ in…

We study the generalized Chv\'atal-Sankoff constant $\gamma_{k,d}$, which represents the normalized expected length of the longest common subsequence (LCS) of $d$ independent uniformly random strings over an alphabet of size $k$. We derive…

Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group with exponent $d^kn, d,n>1,$ and $k$ a positive integer. For $S$ a sequence over $G$ and $A=\{1,2,\ldots,d^kn-1\}\setminus\{d^kn/d^i:i\in[1,k]\}, $ we investigate the lower bound of the number…

Deriving sharp and computable upper bounds of the Lipschitz constant of deep neural networks is crucial to formally guarantee the robustness of neural-network based models. We analyse three existing upper bounds written for the $l^2$ norm.…

In this paper we completely describe maximal green sequences (MGS) of acyclic quivers with multiple edges in terms of maximal green sequences of their multiple edge-free (ME-free) versions. In particular we establish that any MGS of a…

We prove new lower and upper bounds on the higher gonalities of finite graphs. These bounds are generalizations of known upper and lower bounds for first gonality to higher gonalities, including upper bounds on gonality involving…

One of the fundamental challenges in the deep learning community is to theoretically understand how well a deep neural network generalizes to unseen data. However, current approaches often yield generalization bounds that are either too…

The primary objective of learning methods is generalization. Classic uniform generalization bounds, which rely on VC-dimension or Rademacher complexity, fail to explain the significant attribute that over-parameterized models in deep…

The aim of this paper is to show a peculiar behavior of a (hypothetical) Collatz sequence going to infinity. We study the associated Syracusa sequence (the odd elements of the former) and show that the limit set of a conveniently normalized…

Restriction is a natural quasi-order on $d$-way tensors. We establish a remarkable aspect of this quasi-order in the case of tensors over a fixed finite field -- namely, that it is a well-quasi-order: it admits no infinite antichains and no…

We study the upper tail of the number of arithmetic progressions of a given length in a random subset of {1,...,n}, establishing exponential bounds which are best possible up to constant factors in the exponent. The proof also extends to…

We exploit Krattenthaler's bijection between the set $S_n(3\textrm{-}1\textrm{-}2)$ of permutations in $S_n$ avoiding the classical pattern $3\textrm{-}1\textrm{-}2$ and Dyck $n$-paths to study the distribution of every consecutive pattern…

Let n be an integer, and consider finite sequences of elements of the group Z/nZ x Z/nZ. Such a sequence is called zero-sum free, if no subsequence has sum zero. It is known that the maximal length of such a zero-sum free sequence is 2n-2,…
