A Note on the Frankl Conjecture [PDF]
The Frankl conjecture (called also union-closed sets conjecture) is one of the famous unsolved conjectures in combinatorics of finite sets. In this short note, we introduce and to some extent justify some variants of the Frankl conjecture.

On a Question of Erdős and Nešetřil About Minimal Cuts in a Graph
ABSTRACT Answering a question of Erdős and Nešetřil, we show that the maximum number of inclusion‐wise minimal vertex cuts in a graph on n $n$ vertices is at most 1.889 9 n $1.889{9}^{n}$ for large enough n $n$.

Software for enumerative and analytic combinatorics [PDF]
We survey some general-purpose symbolic software packages that implement algorithms from enumerative and analytic combinatorics. Software for the following areas is covered: basic combinatorial objects, symbolic combinatorics, P\'olya theory, combinatorial species, and asymptotics. We describe the capabilities that the packages offer as well as some of

A Simple Explanation for Harmonic Word Order
Abstract Harmonic word order is a well‐established tendency in natural languages, which has previously been explained as a single ordering rule for all head‐dependent relations. We propose that it can be more parsimoniously explained as an outcome of word‐class frequencies, where the purported “head” is the most frequently instantiated word class in a ...

Relative cubulation of relative strict hyperbolization
Abstract We prove that many relatively hyperbolic groups obtained by relative strict hyperbolization admit a cocompact action on a CAT(0)$\operatorname{CAT}(0)$ cubical complex. Under suitable assumptions on the peripheral subgroups, these groups are residually finite and even virtually special.

A central limit theorem for the matching number of a sparse random graph
Abstract In 1981, Karp and Sipser proved a law of large numbers for the matching number of a sparse Erdős–Rényi random graph, in an influential paper pioneering the so‐called differential equation method for analysis of random graph processes. Strengthening this classical result, and answering a question of Aronson, Frieze and Pittel, we prove a ...
