The fluctuations of massless Dirac fermion can not only turn a first-order bosonic phase transition (in the Landau sense) to a quantum critical point, but also work reversely to enhance the first-order transition itself, depending on the…

In this paper we develop a new approach for studying overlapping iterated function systems. This approach is inspired by a famous result due to Khintchine from Diophantine approximation. This result shows that for a family of limsup sets,…

Two families $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of sets are called cross-intersecting if each pair of sets $A\in \mathcal{A}$ and $B\in \mathcal{B}$ has nonempty intersection. Let $\cal{A}$ and ${\cal B}$ be two cross-intersecting families of…

Let $k\geq 2$ and $n\geq 3(k-1)$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ be families of $k$-element subsets of an $n$-element set. Suppose that $|F\cap G|\geq 2$ for all $F\in\mathcal{F}$ and $G\in\mathcal{G}$. We show that…

The Union-Closed Sets Conjecture, also known as Frankl's conjecture, asks whether, for any union-closed set family $\mathcal{F}$ with $m$ sets, there is an element that lies in at least $\frac{1}{2}\cdot m$ sets in $\mathcal{F}$. In 2022,…

For an $n$-element set $X$ let $\binom{X}{k}$ be the collection of all its $k$-subsets. Two families of sets $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ are called cross-intersecting if $A\cap B \neq \emptyset$ holds for all $A\in\mathcal A$,…

The Kolakoski sequence is the unique infinite sequence with values in $\{1,2\}$ and first term $1$ which equals the sequence of run-lengths of itself, we call this $K(1,2).$ We define $K(m,n)$ similarly. A well-known conjecture is that the…

Ever since the famous Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem initiated the study of intersecting families of subsets, extremal problems regarding intersecting properties of families of various combinatorial objects have been extensively investigated.…

We apply percolation theory to a recently proposed measure of fragmentation $F$ for social networks. The measure $F$ is defined as the ratio between the number of pairs of nodes that are not connected in the fragmented network after…

We investigate joint spectral characteristics of a family of matrices $\mathcal F $, associated with products in the semigroup generated by $\mathcal F$. In the literature, extremal measures such as the well-known joint spectral radius and…

This paper addresses the following general scenario: A scientist wishes to perform a battery of experiments, each generating a sequential stream of data, to investigate some phenomenon. The scientist would like to control the overall error…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and ${V\brack k}$ denote the family of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$. The families $\mathcal{F}_1\subseteq{V\brack k_1},\mathcal{F}_2\subseteq{V\brack…

More than 50 years ago, Erd\H os asked the following question: what is the maximum size of a family $\mathcal F$ of $k$-element subsets of an $n$-element set if it has no $s+1$ pairwise disjoint sets? This question attracted a lot of…

Spread spectrum multiple access systems demand minimum possible cross-correlation between the sequences within a set of sequences having good auto-correlation properties. Through a connection between generalised Frank sequences and…

In 2009, Grant, Shallit, and Stoll constructed a large family of pseudorandom sequences, called generalized Rudin--Shapiro sequences, for which they established some results about the average of discrete correlation coefficients of order 2…

We introduce the coverage correlation coefficient, a novel nonparametric measure of statistical association designed to quantifies the extent to which two random variables have a joint distribution concentrated on a singular subset with…

We propose a family of association measures for two-way contingency tables whose latent distribution can be assumed to be bivariate normal. When this assumption holds, the power-divergence measuring departure from independence can be…

We use Fourier analysis to access risk in financial products. With it we analyze price changes of e.g. stocks. Via Fourier analysis we scrutinize quantitatively whether the frequency of change is higher than a change in (conserved) company…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and let $L$ be a set of nonnegative integers. The family $\mathcal{F}$ is \emph{$L$-intersecting} if $|F\cap F'|\in L$ for every two distinct members $F,F'\in\mathcal{F}$; and…

We study the function $M(n,k)$ which denotes the number of maximal $k$-uniform intersecting families $F\subseteq \binom{[n]}{k}$. Improving a bound of Balogh at al. on $M(n,k)$, we determine the order of magnitude of $\log M(n,k)$ by…
