The Erdos-Hajnal conjecture says that for every graph H there exists c>0 such that every graph G not containing H as an induced subgraph has a clique or stable set of cardinality at least |G|^c. We prove that this is true when H is a cycle…
The Erdos-Hajnal Conjecture asserts that for every graph H there is a constant c > 0 such that every graph G that does not contain H as an induced subgraph has a clique or stable set of cardinality at least |G|^c. In this paper, we prove a…
A superpermutation is a sequence that contains every permutation of $n$ distinct symbols as a contiguous substring. For instance, a valid example for three symbols is a sequence that contains all six permutations. This paper introduces a…
A string graph is the intersection graph of curves in the plane. We prove that there exists an absolute constant $c>0$ such that if $G$ is a string graph on $n$ vertices, then $G$ contains either a clique or an independent set of size at…
We establish an exact formula for the length of the shortest permutation containing all layered permutations of length $n$, proving a conjecture of Gray.
We prove that there exists a constant $c_0$ such that for any $t \in \mathbb{N}$ and any $n\geq c_0 t$, if $A \subset S_n$ is a $t$-intersecting family of permutations then$|A|\leq (n-t)!$. Furthermore, if $|A|\ge 0.75(n-t)!$ then there…
Consider the number of permutations in the symmetric group on n letters that contain c copies of a given pattern. As c varies (with n held fixed) these numbers form a sequence whose properties we study for the monotone patterns and the…
We prove that for all $n\in \mathbb{N}$, there exists a constant $C_{n}$ such that for all $d \in \mathbb{N}$, for every row contraction $T$ consisting of $d$ commuting $n \times n$ matrices and every polynomial $p$, the following…
In 1944, P. Erd\H{o}s \cite{1} proved that if $n$ is a large highly composite number (HCN) and $n_1$ is the next HCN, then $$n<n_1<n+n(\log n)^{-c},$$ where $c>0$ is a constant. In this paper, using numerical results by D. A. Corneth, we…
We show that for every $\varepsilon>0$ there is an absolute constant $c(\varepsilon)>0$ such that the following is true. The union of any $n$ arithmetic progressions, each of length $n$, with pairwise distinct differences must consist of at…
A permutation graph is a cubic graph admitting a 1-factor M whose complement consists of two chordless cycles. Extending results of Ellingham and of Goldwasser and Zhang, we prove that if e is an edge of M such that every 4-cycle containing…
For each integer k >= 2, let F(k) denote the largest n for which there exists a permutation \sigma \in S_n, all of whose patterns of length k are distinct. We prove that F(k) = k + \lfloor \sqrt{2k-3} \rfloor + e_k, where e_k \in {-1,0} for…
We study a family of equivalence relations on $S_n$, the group of permutations on $n$ letters, created in a manner similar to that of the Knuth relation and the forgotten relation. For our purposes, two permutations are in the same…
For c in [0,1] let P_n(c) denote the set of n-vertex perfect graphs with density c and C_n(c) the set of n-vertex graphs without induced C_5 and with density c. We show that log|P_n(c)|/binom{n}{2}=log|C_n(c)|/binom{n}{2}=h(c)+o(1) with…
Permutation Matrices are a well known class of matrices which encode the elements of the symmetric group on $d$ elements as a square $d\times d$ matrix. Motivated by [4], we define a similar class of matrices which are a generalization of…
Using a result of Gessel and Reutenauer, we find a simple formula for the number of cyclic permutations with a given descent set, by expressing it in terms of ordinary descent numbers (i.e., those counting all permutations with a given…
Given a graph, we associate each edge with the transposition which exchanges the endvertices. Fixing a linear order on the edge set, we obtain a permutation of the vertices. D\'enes proved that the permutation is a full cyclic permutation…
An infinite permutation is a linear ordering of the set of non-negative integers. Generally, the properties of infinite permutations analogous to those of infinite words show some resemblances and some differences between permutations and…
When specialized to the context of permutations, Schmerl and Trotter's Theorem states that every simple permutation which is not a parallel alternation contains a simple permutation with one fewer entry. We give an elementary proof of this…
In this paper we show that every set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive density contains $B+C$ for some pair $B,C$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, settling a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. The proof features two different decompositions of…
