Consider a pair of cumulative distribution functions $F$ and $G$, where $F$ is unknown and $G$ is a known reference distribution. Given a sample from $F$, we propose tests to detect the convexity or the concavity of $G^{-1}\circ F$ versus…

A family $F$ of graphs on a fixed set of $n$ vertices is called triangle-intersecting if for any $G_1,G_2 \in F$, the intersection $G_1 \cap G_2$ contains a triangle. More generally, for a fixed graph $H$, a family $F$ is $H$-intersecting…

The well-known Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado theorem states that for $n> 2k$, every intersecting family of $k$-sets of $[n]:=\{1,\ldots ,n\}$ has at most $ {n-1 \choose k-1}$ sets, and the extremal family consists of all $k$-sets containing a fixed…

A prescription is presented for a new and practical correlation coefficient, $\phi_K$, based on several refinements to Pearson's hypothesis test of independence of two variables. The combined features of $\phi_K$ form an advantage over…

The correlation measure of order $k$ is a measure of pseudorandomness that quantifies the similarity between a sequence and its shifts. It is known that the correlation of order 4 is large for the Rudin-Shapiro sequence despite having nice…

Mubayi's Conjecture states that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a family of $k$-sized subsets of $[n] = \{1,\ldots,n\}$ which, for $k \geq d \geq 2$, satisfies $A_1 \cap\cdots\cap A_d \neq \emptyset$ whenever $|A_1 \cup\cdots\cup A_d| \leq 2k$ for all…

Let $(\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G})$ be a pair of families of $[n]$, where $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$. If $A\not\subset B$ and $B\not\subset A$ hold for all $A\in\mathcal{F}$ and $B\in\mathcal{G}$, then $(\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G})$ is called a…

Precise estimation of cross-correlation or similarity between two random variables lies at the heart of signal detection, hyperdimensional computing, associative memories, and neural networks. Although a vast literature exists on different…

A family $\mathcal{F}\subset \binom{[n]}{k}$ is called intersecting if $F\cap F'\neq \emptyset$ for all $F,F'\in \mathcal{F}$. The covering number of a family $\mathcal{F}$ is defined as the minimum size of $T\subset [n]$ such that $T\cap…

For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, let $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{F}) = \{F\setminus G: F, G \in \mathcal{F}\}$ be the collection of all (setwise) differences of $\mathcal{F}$. The family $\mathcal{F}$ is called a…

A set family ${\cal F}$ is $uncrossable$ if $A \cap B,A \cup B \in {\cal F}$ or $A \setminus B,B \setminus A \in {\cal F}$ for any $A,B \in {\cal F}$. A classic result of Williamson, Goemans, Mihail, and Vazirani [STOC 1993:708-717] states…

Let $\mathcal{F}\subseteq \binom{[n]}{r}$ be an intersecting family of sets and let $\Delta(\mathcal{F})$ be the maximum degree in $\mathcal{F}$, i.e., the maximum number of edges of $\mathcal{F}$ containing a fixed vertex. The…

The cross number of a sequence over a finite abelian group $G$ is the sum of the inverse orders of the terms of that sequence. We study two group invariants, the maximal cross number of a zero-sum free sequence over $G$, called…

We first consider the sequential detection of transient signals by generalizing the moving average chart to exponential family and study the false detection probability (FDP) and power of detection (POD) in the steady state. Then windowed…

Low correlation (finite length) sequences are used in communications and remote sensing. One seeks codebooks of sequences in which each sequence has low aperiodic autocorrelation at all nonzero shifts, and each pair of distinct sequences…

A family $\mathcal{F}\subset \binom{[n]}{k}$ is called an intersecting family if $F\cap F'\neq \emptyset$ for all $F,F'\in \mathcal{F}$. If $\cap \mathcal{F}\neq \emptyset$ then $\mathcal{F}$ is called a star. The diversity of an…

For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of a finite set, define $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{F})=\{F\setminus F': F, F'\in\mathcal{F}\}$. A family $\mathcal{F}$ is called intersecting if $F\cap F'\not=\emptyset$ for all $F, F'\in\mathcal{F}$. Frankl…

We study the intersecting family process initially studied in \cite{BCFMR}. Here $k=k(n)$ and $E_1,E_2,\ldots,E_m$ is a random sequence of $k$-sets from $\binom{[n]}{k}$ where $E_{r+1}$ is uniformly chosen from those $k$-sets that are not…

Ellis, Filmus, and Friedgut proved an old conjecture of Simonovits and S\'os showing that the maximum size of a triangle-intersecting family of graphs on $n$ vertices has size at most $2^{\binom{n}{2} - 3}$, with equality for the family of…

Let $n$, $r$, and $k$ be positive integers such that $k, r \geq 2$, $L$ a non-empty subset of $[k]$, and $\mathcal{F}_i \subseteq \binom{[n]}{k}$ for $1 \leq i \leq r$. We say that non-empty families $\mathcal{F}_1, \mathcal{F}_2, \ldots,…
