Ruzsa asked whether there exist Fourier-uniform subsets of $\mathbb Z/N\mathbb Z$ with density $\alpha$ and 4-term arithmetic progression (4-AP) density at most $\alpha^C$, for arbitrarily large $C$. Gowers constructed Fourier uniform sets…

For a finite set of integers such that the first few gaps between its consecutive elements equal $a$, while the remaining gaps equal $b$, we study dense packings of its translates on the line. We obtain an explicit lower bound on the…

In a recent article, we introduced and studied a precise class of dynamical systems called solvable systems. These systems present a dynamic ruled by discontinuous ordinary differential equations with solvable right-hand terms and unique…

This paper is concerned with certain generalizations of meagreness and their combinatorial equivalents. The simplest example, and the one which motivated further study in this area, comes about by considering the following definition: a set…

The $3x+1$ problem concerns the iteration of the map $T:\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{Z}$ defined by $T(x)=x/2$ for even $x$ and $T(x)=(3x+1)/2$ for odd $x$. We study the \emph{coefficient stopping time} dynamics of $T$ (in the sense of Terras) by…

In this paper, we prove some new thickness theorems with partial derivatives. We give some applications. First, we give a simple criterion that can judge whether two scaled Cantor sets have non-empty intersection. Second, we prove under…

A. Iosevich and K. Taylor showed that compact subsets of $\mathbb R^d$ with Hausdorff dimension greater than $(d+1)/2$ contain trees with gaps in an open interval. Under the same dimensional threshold, we prove the analogous result where…

In this paper, we consider dominating sets $D$ and $D'$ such that $D$ and $D'$ are disjoint and there exists a perfect matching between them. Let $DD_{\textrm{m}}(G)$ denote the cardinality of smallest such sets $D, D'$ in $G$ (provided…

Dynamic programming on tree decompositions is a frequently used approach to solve otherwise intractable problems on instances of small treewidth. In recent work by Bodlaender et al., it was shown that for many connectivity problems, there…

We study some variants of the Erd\H{o}s similarity problem. We pose the question if every measurable subset of the real line with positive measure contains a similar copy of an infinite geometric progression. We construct a compact subset…

We study a size-structured model proposed in [1] C. Barril, \`A. Calsina, O. Diekmann, J. Z. Farkas, On competition through growth reduction, e-print arXiv:2303.02981, to describe the dynamics of trees growth in the forest. Our approach to…

Suppose that $K \subseteq \RR^d$ is a 0-symmetric convex body which defines the usual norm $$ \Norm{x}_K = \sup\Set{t\ge 0: x \notin tK} $$ on $\RR^d$. Let also $A\subseteq\RR^d$ be a measurable set of positive upper density $\rho$. We show…

We prove discrete-to-continuum convergence for dynamical optimal transport on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-periodic graphs with energy density having linear growth at infinity. This result provides an answer to a problem left open by Gladbach, Kopfer,…

In this paper, we study the complexity of two types of digraph packing problems: perfect out-forests problem and Steiner cycle packing problem. For the perfect out-forest problem, we prove that it is NP-hard to decide whether a given strong…

A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection z --> c-z. We consider, for any 0 < x <= 1, the largest real number D(x) such that every subset of $[0,1]$ with measure greater than x contains a symmetric…

We study branching random walks in random environment on the $d$-dimensional square lattice, $d \geq 1$. In this model, the environment has finite range dependence, and the population size cannot decrease. We prove limit theorems (laws of…

A nonlinear version of Roth's theorem states that dense sets of integers contain configurations of the form $x$, $x+d$, $x+d^2$. We obtain a multidimensional version of this result, which can be regarded as a first step towards…

The well-known Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal conjecture states that for any graph $F$, there exists $\epsilon>0$ such that every $n$-vertex graph $G$ that contains no induced copy of $F$ has a homogeneous set of size at least $n^{\epsilon}$. We consider…

We prove a conjecture of Fox, Huang, and Lee that characterizes directed graphs that have constant density in all tournaments: they are disjoint unions of trees that are each constructed in a certain recursive way.

For $p\in[1,\infty]$, the $\ell^p$ directed spanning forest (DSF) of dimension $d\geq 2$ is an oriented random geometric graph whose vertex set is given by a homogeneous Poisson point process $\mathcal N$ on $\mathbb R^d$ and whose edges…
