Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, and let $\mathcal C$ be a collection of $n$ simple $k$-intersecting curves, meaning that every two distinct curves of $\mathcal C$ meet in at most $k$ points. A classical theorem of Pach and…

Tatsuyuki Hikita recently proved the Stanley--Stembridge conjecture using probabilistic methods, showing that the chromatic symmetric functions of unit interval graphs are $e$-positive. Finding a combinatorial interpretation for these…

We establish sufficient conditions for finite convergence of the alternating projections method for two non-intersecting and potentially nonconvex sets. Our results are based on a generalization of the concept of intrinsic transversality,…

Given a collection of graphs $\mathbf{G}=(G_1, \ldots, G_m)$ with the same vertex set, an $m$-edge graph $H\subset \cup_{i\in [m]}G_i$ is a transversal if there is a bijection $\phi:E(H)\to [m]$ such that $e\in E(G_{\phi(e)})$ for each…

Given a graph $G$, its Ramsey number $r(G)$ is the minimum $N$ so that every two-coloring of $E(K_N)$ contains a monochromatic copy of $G$. It was conjectured by Conlon, Fox, and Sudakov that if one deletes a single vertex from $G$, the…

Sparse-dense partitions was introduced by Feder, Hell, Klein, and Motwani [STOC 1999, SIDMA 2003] as a tool to solve partitioning problems. In this paper, the following result concerning independent sets in graphs having sparse-dense…

In this paper, we show how one may (efficiently) construct two types of extremal combinatorial objects whose existence was previously conjectural. (*) Panchromatic Graphs: For fixed integer k, a k-panchromatic graph is, roughly speaking, a…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected graph on $n$ vertices and $\lambda:E\to 2^{\mathbb{N}}$ a mapping that assigns to every edge a non-empty set of integer labels (times). Such a graph is {\em temporally connected} if a path exists with…

For a graph G=(V,E), a hypergraph H is called Berge-G if there is a bijection f from E(G) to E(H) such that for each e in E(G), e is a subset of f(e). The set of all Berge-G hypergraphs is denoted B(G). For integers k>1, r>1, and a graph G,…

We prove that whenever $G$ is a graph from a nowhere dense graph class $\mathcal{C}$, and $A$ is a subset of vertices of $G$, then the number of subsets of $A$ that are realized as intersections of $A$ with $r$-neighborhoods of vertices of…

Chromatic polynomials and related graph invariants are central objects in both graph theory and statistical physics. Computational difficulties, however, have so far restricted studies of such polynomials to graphs that were either very…

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a finite simple graph. Recall that a proper coloring of $G$ is a mapping $\varphi: V\to\{1,\ldots,k\}$ such that every color class induces an independent set. Such a $\varphi$ is called a semi-matching coloring if the…

Given S_1, a finite set of points in the plane, we define a sequence of point sets S_i as follows: With S_i already determined, let L_i be the set of all the line segments connecting pairs of points of the union of S_1,...,S_i, and let…

This paper continues the study of a new variant of graph coloring with a connectivity constraint recently introduced by Hsieh et al. [COCOON 2024]. A path in a vertex-colored graph is called conflict-free if there is a color that appears…

Given positive integers $p \ge k$, and a non-negative integer $d$, we say a graph $G$ is $(k,d,p)$-choosable if for every list assignment $L$ with $|L(v)|\geq k$ for each $v \in V(G)$ and $|\bigcup_{v\in V(G)}L(v)| \leq p$, there exists an…

For a subset $ S $ of $ \mathbb R^d$, $ S$-graphs are the intersection graphs of specific transformations of $ S $. The class of Burling graphs is a class of triangle-free graphs with arbitrarily large chromatic number that has attracted…

A family ${\mathcal A} \subset {\mathcal P} [n]$ is said to be an antichain if $A \not \subset B$ for all distinct $A,B \in {\mathcal A}$. A classic result of Sperner shows that such families satisfy $|{\mathcal A}| \leq \binom {n}{\lfloor…

In this work, we study the color discrepancy of spanning trees in random graphs. We show that for the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$ with $p$ above the connectivity threshold, the following holds with high probability: in every…

Suppose you have an uncomputable set $X$ and you want to find a set $A$, all of whose infinite subsets compute $X$. There are several ways to do this, but all of them seem to produce a set $A$ which is fairly sparse. We show that this is…

There are many concepts of signed graph coloring which are defined by assigning colors to the vertices of the graphs. These concepts usually differ in the number of self-inverse colors used. We introduce a unifying concept for this kind of…
