We prove a fractional Helly theorem for $k$-flats intersecting fat convex sets. A family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets is said to be $\rho$-fat if every set in the family contains a ball and is contained in a ball such that the ratio of the radii…

It is a classical result of Mahler that for any rational number $\alpha$ > 1 which is not an integer and any real 0 < c < 1, the set of positive integers n such that $\alpha$ n < c n is necessarily finite. Here for any real x, x denotes the…

Helly's theorem and its variants show that for a family of convex sets in Euclidean space, local intersection patterns influence global intersection patterns. A classical result of Eckhoff in 1988 provided an optimal fractional Helly…

Let $\mathbf{S}$ be the set of all finite or infinite increasing sequences of positive integers. For a sequence $S=\{s(n)\}, n\geq1,$ from $\mathbf{S},$ let us call a positive number $N$ an exponentially $S$-number $(N\in E(S)),$ if all…

Helly graphs are graphs in which every family of pairwise intersecting balls has a non-empty intersection. This is a classical and widely studied class of graphs. In this article we focus on groups acting geometrically on Helly graphs --…

We prove existence of Helly numbers for crystals and for cut-and-project sets with convex windows. Also we show that for a two-dimensional crystal consisting of $k$ copies of a single lattice the Helly number does not exceed $k+6$.

Let $P$ be a finite set of points in the plane in general position, that is, no three points of $P$ are on a common line. We say that a set $H$ of five points from $P$ is a $5$-hole in $P$ if $H$ is the vertex set of a convex $5$-gon…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of convex sets in ${\mathbb R}^d$, which are colored with $d+1$ colors. We say that $\mathcal{F}$ satisfies the Colorful Helly Property if every rainbow selection of $d+1$ sets, one set from each color class,…

We establish a theorem regarding the maximum size of an {\it{induced}} matching in the bipartite complement of the incidence graph of a set system $(X,\mathcal{F})$. We show that this quantity plus one provides an upper bound on the…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a fixed field and let $X$ be a simplicial complex on the vertex set $V$. The Leray number $L(X;\mathbb{F})$ is the minimal $d$ such that for all $i \geq d$ and $S \subset V$, the induced complex $X[S]$ satisfies…

A Helly-type theorem for diameter provides a bound on the diameter of the intersection of a finite family of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ given some information on the diameter of the intersection of all sufficiently small subfamilies. We…

We prove that fractional Helly and $(p,q)$-theorems imply $(\aleph_0,q)$-theorems in an entirely abstract setting. We give a plethora of applications, including reproving almost all earlier $(\aleph_0,q)$-theorems about geometric…

On the circle of radius $R$ centred at the origin, consider a ``thin'' sector about the fixed line $y = \alpha x$ with edges given by the lines $y = (\alpha \pm \epsilon) x$, where $\epsilon = \epsilon_R \rightarrow 0$ as $ R \to \infty $.…

We consider sets and maps defined over an o-minimal structure over the reals, such as real semi-algebraic or subanalytic sets. A {\em monotone map} is a multi-dimensional generalization of a usual univariate monotone function, while the…

Let $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, and let $k\in\mathbb{N}$. Greenwell and Johnson define ${\hat\chi\ }^{(k)}(S)$ to be the smallest integer $m$ (if such an integer exists) such that for every $k\times m$ array $D=(d_{ij})$ of positive real…

For graphs $F$ and $H$, the Ramsey number $R(F, H)$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that any red/blue edge coloring of $K_N$ contains either a red $F$ or a blue $H$. Let $C_n$ be a cycle of length $n$ and $F_n$ be a fan consisting…

A graph is Helly if every family of pairwise intersecting balls has a nonempty common intersection. Motivated by previous work on dually chordal graphs and graphs of bounded distance VC-dimension we prove several new results on the…

We study Helson matrices (also known as multiplicative Hankel matrices), i.e. infinite matrices of the form $M(\alpha) = \{\alpha(nm)\}_{n,m=1}^\infty$, where $\alpha$ is a sequence of complex numbers. Helson matrices are considered as…

Two celebrated extensions of Helly's theorem are the Fractional Helly theorem of Katchalski and Liu (1979) and the Quantitative Volume theorem of B\'ar\'any, Katchalski, and Pach (1982). Improving on several recent works, we prove an…

A new metric parameter for a graph, Helly-gap, is introduced. A graph $G$ is called $\alpha$-weakly-Helly if any system of pairwise intersecting disks in $G$ has a nonempty common intersection when the radius of each disk is increased by an…
