Denote by $f_D(n)$ the maximum size of a set family $\mathcal{F}$ on $[n] \stackrel{\mbox{\normalfont\tiny def}}{=} \{1, \dots, n\}$ with distance set $D$. That is, $|A \bigtriangleup B| \in D$ holds for every pair of distinct sets $A, B…

Let $(M,\scott X) \models \ACA$ be such that $P_\scott X$, the collection of all unbounded sets in $\scott X$, admits a definable complete ultrafilter and let $T$ be a theory extending first order arithmetic coded in $\scott X$ such that…

A subset $A$ of $[n] = \{1, \dots, n\}$ is $k$-separated if, when the elements of $[n]$ are considered on a circle, between any two elements of $A$ there are at least $k$ elements of $[n]$ that are not in $A$. A family $\mathcal{A}$ of sets…

The connection between the commutativity of a family of $n\times n$ matrices and the generalized joint numerical ranges is studied. For instance, it is shown that ${\cal F}$ is a family of mutually commuting normal matrices if and only if…

We study and solve several problems in two closely related settings: set families in $2^{[n]}$ with many disjoint pairs of sets and low rank matrices with many zero entries. - More than 40 years ago, Daykin and Erd\H{o}s asked for the…

We study the distribution of partial sums of Rademacher random multiplicative functions $(f(n))_n$ evaluated at polynomial arguments. We show that for a polynomial $P\in \mathbb Z[x]$ that is a product of at least two distinct linear…

Let $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$ be the set of $2 \times 2$ matrices with real entries. For any $\varepsilon>0$ and any finitely--supported probability measure $\mu$ on $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we prove that either \[ T(\mu) = \sum_{X,…

In this paper we look for the existence of large linear and algebraic structures of sequences of measurable functions with different modes of convergence. Concretely, the algebraic size of the family of sequences that are convergent in…

Let X_1,..., X_n be independent Bernoulli random variables and $f$ a function on {0,1}^n. In the well-known paper (Talagrand1994) Talagrand gave an upper bound for the variance of f in terms of the individual influences of the X_i's. This…

In symmetric groups, studies of permutation factorizations or triples of permutations satisfying certain conditions have a long history. One particular interesting case is when two of the involved permutations are long cycles, for which…

For a finite group $G$, let $N(G)$ denote the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. We show that if every finite group $G$ with trivial center such that $N(G)$ equals to $N(Alt_n)$, where $n>1361$ and at least one of numbers $n$ or $n-1$ are…

In 1965, Motzkin and Straus [5] provided a new proof of Turan's theorem based on a continuous characterization of the clique number of a graph using the Lagrangian of a graph. This new proof aroused interests in the study of Lagrangians of…

Two subsets $A,B$ of an $n$-element ground set $X$ are said to be \emph{crossing}, if none of the four sets $A\cap B$, $A\setminus B$, $B\setminus A$ and $X\setminus(A\cup B)$ are empty. It was conjectured by Karzanov and Lomonosov forty…

While many inner model theoretic combinatorial principles are incompatible with large cardinal axioms, on some rare occasions, large cardinals actually imply that the structure of the universe of sets is analogous to the canonical inner…

The purpose of the article is to provide partial proofs for two conjectures given by Witte and Forrester in "Moments of the Gaussian $\beta$ Ensembles and the large $N$ expansion of the densities" with the use of the topological recursion…

A family $\mathcal{F} \subset \mathcal{P}(n)$ is $r$-wise $k$-intersecting if $|A_1 \cap \dots \cap A_r| \geq k$ for any $A_1, \dots, A_r \in \mathcal{F}$. It is easily seen that if $\mathcal{F}$ is $r$-wise $k$-intersecting for $r \geq 2$,…

The paper reexamines an argument by Talagrand that leads to a remarkable exponential tail bound for the concentration of probability near a set. The main novelty is the replacement of a mysterious Calculus inequality by an application of…

Taking as model the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of phi-contractions on a complete and bounded metric space, we introduce the set-theoretic concept of family of functions having attractor. We prove that, given such a…

Categories, n-categories, double categories, and multicategories (among others) all have similar definitions as collections of cells with composition operations. We give an explicit description of the information required to define any…

We show that for some constant $\kappa>0$, any centered $\kappa$-subgaussian random variable is equal to the sum of three standard Gaussian random variables, confirming a conjecture of M. Talagrand. We also prove that given $\Lambda\geq 1$,…
