A matrix is homogeneous if all of its entries are equal. Let $P$ be a $2\times 2$ zero-one matrix that is not homogeneous. We prove that if an $n\times n$ zero-one matrix $A$ does not contain $P$ as a submatrix, then $A$ has an $cn\times…

Given a $k\times l$ $(0,1)$-matrix $F$, we denote by $\mathrm{fs}(m,F)$ the largest number for which there is an $m \times \mathrm{fs}(m,F)$ $(0,1)$-matrix with no repeated columns and no induced submatrix equal to $F$. A conjecture of…

A \emph{simple} matrix is a (0,1)-matrix with no repeated columns. For a (0,1)-matrix $F$, we say that a (0,1)-matrix $A$ has $F$ as a \emph{Berge hypergraph} if there is a submatrix $B$ of $A$ and some row and column permutation of $F$,…

For a bipartite graph G, let h(G) be the largest t such that either G or the bipartite complement of G contain K_{t,t}. For a class F of graphs, let h(F)= min {h(G): G\in F}. We say that a bipartite graph H is strongly acyclic if neither H…

A matrix is \emph{simple} if it is a (0,1)-matrix and there are no repeated columns. Given a (0,1)-matrix $F$, we say a matrix $A$ has $F$ as a \emph{configuration}, denoted $F\prec A$, if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and…

An $r$-matrix is a matrix with symbols in $\{0,1,\ldots,r-1\}$. A matrix is simple if it has no repeated columns. Let ${\cal F}$ be a finite set of $r$-matrices. Let $\hbox{forb}(m,r,{\cal F})$ denote the maximum number of columns possible…

A simple matrix is a (0,1)-matrix with no repeated columns. For a (0,1)-matrix $F$, we say that a (0,1)-matrix $A$ has $F$ as a configuration if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and column permutation of $F$ (trace is the set…

An $n \times n$ matrix $H$ is Butson-Hadamard if its entries are $k^{\text{th}}$ roots of unity and it satisfies $HH^* = nI_n$. Write $BH(n, k)$ for the set of such matrices. Suppose that $k = p^{\alpha}q^{\beta}$ where $p$ and $q$ are…

A real square matrix $A$ of order $n \times n~ (n \geq 3)$ is called an $F_0$-matrix, if it is a $Z$-matrix (off-diagonal entries nonpositive), all of whose principal submatrices of orders at most $n-2$ are $M$-matrices while there is at…

An $r$-matrix is a matrix with symbols in $\{0,1,\dots,r-1\}$. A matrix is simple if it has no repeated columns. Let the support of a matrix $F$, $\text{supp}(F)$ be the largest simple matrix such that every column in $\text{supp}(F)$ is in…

We consider real orthogonal $n\times n$ matrices whose diagonal entries are zero and off-diagonal entries nonzero, which we refer to as $\mathrm{OMZD}(n)$. We show that there exists an $\mathrm{OMZD}(n)$ if and only if $n\neq 1,\ 3$, and…

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…

The incidence matrix of a graph is totally unimodular if and only if the graph is bipartite, i.e., it contains no odd cycles. We extend the characterization of total unimodularity to hypergraphs whose hyperedges of size at least four are…

The independence number of a square matrix $A$, denoted by $\alpha(A)$, is the maximum order of its principal zero submatrices. Let $S_n^{+}$ be the set of $n\times n$ nonnegative symmetric matrices with zero trace. Denote by $J_n$ the…

Let $H:M_m\to M_m$ be a holomorphic function of the algebra $M_m$ of complex $m\times m$ matrices. Suppose that $H$ is orthogonally additive and orthogonally multiplicative on self-adjoint elements. We show that either the range of $H$…

A pure pair of size $t$ in a graph $G$ is a pair $A,B$ of disjoint sets of $t$ vertices such that $A$ is either complete or anticomplete to $B$. It is known that, for every forest $H$, every graph on $n\ge2$ vertices that does not contain…

A full-homomorphism between a pair of graphs is a vertex mapping that preserves adjacencies and non-adjacencies. For a fixed graph $H$, a full $H$-colouring is a full-homomorphism of $G$ to $H$. A minimal $H$-obstruction is a graph that…

We consider the set $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ of $n\times n$-matrices with integer elements of size at most $H$ and obtain a new upper bound on the number of matrices from $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb Z; H)$ with a given characteristic…

Let $F$ be a $k\times \ell$ (0,1)-matrix. A matrix is simple if it is a (0,1)-matrix with no repeated columns. A (0,1)-matrix $A$ is said to have a $F$ as a configuration if there is a submatrix of $A$ which is a row and column permutation…

A graph is "$H$-free" if it has no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$. A conjecture of Conlon, Fox and Sudakov states that for every graph $H$, there exists $s>0$ such that in every $H$-free graph with $n>1$ vertices, either some vertex has…
