In 1983, Burr and Erd\H{o}s initiated the study of Ramsey goodness problems.Nikiforov and Rousseau (2009) resolved almost all goodness questions raised by Burr and Erd\H{o}s, in which the bounds on the parameters are of tower type since…

In this paper we study a very general finite Ramsey theorem, where both the sets being colored and the homogeneous set must satisfy some largeness notion. For the homogeneous set this has already been done using the notion of…

We show that the infinite-dimensional versions of Gowers' $\mathrm{FIN}_k$ and $\mathrm{FIN}_{\pm k}$ theorems can be parametrized by an infinite sequence of perfect subsets of $2^\omega$. To do so, we use ultra-Ramsey theory to obtain…

We consider the sums $T_N=\sum_{n=1}^N F(S_n)$ where $S_n$ is a random walk on $\mathbb Z^d$ and $F:\mathbb Z^d\to \mathbb R$ is a global observable, that is, a bounded function which admits an average value when averaged over large cubes.…

The Rademacher random walk associated with a deterministic sequence $(a_n)_{n \geq 1}$ is the walk which starts at zero and, at step $i$, independently steps either up or down by $a_i$ with equal probability. We continue the study begun by…

Gessel walks are lattice paths confined to the quarter plane that start at the origin and consist of unit steps going either West, East, South-West or North-East. In 2001, Ira Gessel conjectured a nice closed-form expression for the number…

In a projective plane $\Pi_q$ of order $q$, a non-empty point set ${\cal S}_t$ is a $t$-semiarc if the number of tangent lines to ${\cal S}_t$ at each of its points is $t$. If ${\cal S}_t$ is a $t$-semiarc in $\Pi_q$, $t<q$, then each line…

We consider the following situation: G is a finite directed graph, where to each vertex of G is assigned an element of a finite group Gamma. We consider all walks of length N on G, starting from v_i and ending at v_j To each such walk $w$…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $s$ be a positive integer. A subset $A$ of $G$ is called a {\em perfect $s$-basis of $G$} if each element of $G$ can be written uniquely as the sum of at most $s$ (not-necessarily-distinct) elements of…

The Sylvester-Gallai theorem says that for any finite set of non-collinear points in $\R^2$, there is some line passing through exactly two points of the set. Over the complex numbers, this theorem fails: there are finite configurations…

Let $G$ be a Cayley graph of a nonamenable group with spectral radius $\rho < 1$. It is known that branching random walk on $G$ with offspring distribution $\mu$ is transient, i.e., visits the origin at most finitely often almost surely, if…

We consider random walks on $\Z^8$ indexed by the infinite invariant tree, which consists of an infinite spine and finite random trees attached to it on both sides. We establish the precise order of the non-intersection probability between…

Let $S_n$ be a centered random walk with a finite variance, and define the new sequence $A_n:=\sum_{i=1}^n S_i$, which we call an integrated random walk. We are interested in the asymptotics of $$p_N:=P(\min_{1 \le k \le N} A_k \ge 0)$$ as…

Answering a question raised by Dudek and Pra\l{}at, we show that if $pn\rightarrow \infty$, w.h.p.,~whenever $G=G(n,p)$ is $2$-coloured, there exists a monochromatic path of length $n(2/3+o(1))$. This result is optimal in the sense that…

We show that for any finite set $P$ of points in the plane and $\epsilon>0$ there exist $\displaystyle O\left(\frac{1}{\epsilon^{3/2+\gamma}}\right)$ points in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$, for arbitrary small $\gamma>0$, that pierce every convex set…

We study an inverse problem on a finite connected graph G = (X, E), on whose vertices a conductivity {\gamma} is defined. Our data consists in a sequence of partial observations of a fractional random walk on G. The observations are partial…

An important result in discrepancy due to Banaszczyk states that for any set of $n$ vectors in $\mathbb{R}^m$ of $\ell_2$ norm at most $1$ and any convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^m$ of Gaussian measure at least half, there exists a $\pm 1$…

In Robbins' problem of minimizing the expected rank, a finite sequence of $n$ independent, identically distributed random variables are observed sequentially and the objective is to stop at such a time that the expected rank of the selected…

We consider transient nearest neighbor random walks on the positive part of the real line. We give criteria for the finiteness of the number of cutpoints and strong cutpoints. Examples and open problems are presented.

For given graphs $G_{1}, G_{2}$ and $G$, let $G\rightarrow (G_{1}, G_{2})$ denote that each red-blue-coloring of $E(G)$ yields a red copy of $G_{1}$ or a blue copy of $G_{2}$. Arag{\~a}o, Marciano and Mendon{\c c}a [L. Arag{\~a}o, J. Pedro…
