We consider families, $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set. For integers $r\geq 2$, $t\geq 1$, $\mathcal{F}$ is called $r$-wise $t$-intersecting if any $r$ of its members have at least $t$ elements in common. The most natural…

A set system $\mathcal{F}$ is $t$-\textit{intersecting}, if the size of the intersection of every pair of its elements has size at least $t$. A set system $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-\textit{Sperner}, if it does not contain a chain of length…

Inspired by the classic problem of Boolean function monotonicity testing, we investigate the testability of other well-studied properties of combinatorial finite set systems, specifically \emph{intersecting} families and \emph{union-closed}…

Let $\F$ be a finite family of axis-parallel boxes in $\R^d$ such that $\F$ contains no $k+1$ pairwise disjoint boxes. We prove that if $\F$ contains a subfamily $\M$ of $k$ pairwise disjoint boxes with the property that for every $F\in \F$…

A set family ${\cal F}$ is called intersecting if every two members of ${\cal F}$ intersect, and it is called uniform if all members of ${\cal F}$ share a common size. A uniform family ${\cal F} \subseteq \binom{[n]}{k}$ of $k$-subsets of…

We show that there is an effectively closed maximal eventually different family of functions in spaces of the form $\prod_n F(n)$ for $F\colon \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}\cup\{\mathbb{N}\}$ and give an exact criterion for when there exists an…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $c > 0$ such that for every $$a_0,a_1, \ldots,a_n \in [1,M]\,, \qquad 1 \leq M \leq \frac 14 \exp \left( \frac n9 \right)\,,$$ there are $$b_0,b_1,\ldots,b_n \in \{-1,0,1\}$$ such that the…

Let ${\cal P}_n^c$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ with complex coefficients. Let $$D^+ := \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| \leq 1, \, \, \Im(z) \geq 0\}$$ be the closed upper half-disk of the complex plane. For…

We show that the Union-Closed Conjecture holds for the union-closed family generated by the cyclic translates of any fixed set.

Let $\F\subset 2^{[n]}$ be a family of subsets of $\{1,2,..., n\}$. For any poset $H$, we say $\F$ is $H$-free if $\F$ does not contain any subposet isomorphic to $H$. Katona and others have investigated the behavior of $\La(n,H)$, which…

The collection of branches (maximal linearly ordered sets of nodes) of the tree ${}^{<\omega}\omega$ (ordered by inclusion) forms an almost disjoint family (of sets of nodes). This family is not maximal -- for example, any level of the tree…

A family $\mbox{$\cal F$}=\{F_1,\ldots,F_m\}$ of subsets of $[n]$ is said to be ordered, if there exists an $1\leq r\leq m$ index such that $n\in F_i$ for each $1\leq i\leq r$, $n\notin F_i$ for each $i>r$ and $|F_i|\leq |F_j|$ for each…

Given an irreducible fraction $\frac{c}{d} \in [0,1]$, a pair $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B})$ is called a $\frac{c}{d}$-cross-intersecting pair of $2^{[n]}$ if $\mathcal{A}, \mathcal{B}$ are two families of subsets of $[n]$ such that for every…

A set of integers is called sum-free if it contains no triple $(x,y,z)$ of not necessarily distinct elements with $x+y=z$. In this paper, we provide a structural characterisation of sum-free subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ of density at least…

An identifying code of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhoods and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists…

We show that there is a constant $C$ such that for every $\varepsilon>0$ any $2$-coloured $K_n$ with minimum degree at least $n/4+\varepsilon n$ in both colours contains a complete subgraph on $2t$ vertices where one colour class forms a…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\matchcal{B}$ denote two families of subsets of an $n$-element set. The pair $(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B})$ is said to be $\ell$-cross-intersecting iff $|A\cap B| = \ell$ for all $A\in\mathcal{A}$ and $B\in\mathcal{B}$.…

We consider badly approximable numbers in the case of dyadic diophantine approximation. For the unit circle $\mathbb{S}$ and the smallest distance to an integer $\|\cdot\|$ we give elementary proofs that the set $F(c) = \{x \in \mathbb{S}:…

It was proved by Scott that for every $k\ge2$, there exists a constant $c(k)>0$ such that for every bipartite $n$-vertex graph $G$ without isolated vertices, there exists an induced subgraph $H$ of order at least $c(k)n$ such that…

We prove that for every poset $P$, there is a constant $C$ such that the size of any family of subsets of $[n]$ that does not contain $P$ as an induced subposet is at most $C{\binom{n}{\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor}}$, settling a conjecture of…
