Topics in metric geometry, combinatorial geometry, extremal combinatorics and additive combinatorics

open access: yes, 2018
In this thesis, we consider several combinatorial topics, belonging to the areas appearing in the thesis title. Given a non-empty complete metric space $(X,d)$, a family of $n$ continuous maps $f_1,f_2,\dots,f_n\colon X\to X$ is a \emph{contractive family} if there exists $\lambda<1$ such that for any $x,y\in X$ we have $d(f_i(x),f_i(y))\leq\lambda ...

Algebraic, Extremal and Metric Combinatorics 1986

open access: closed, 1988
This book represents a comprehensive overview of the present state of progress in three related areas of combinatorics. It comprises selected papers from a conference held at the University of Montreal. Topics covered in the articles include association schemes, extremal problems, combinatorial geometrics and matroids, and designs.

Sumsets, Zero-Sums and Extremal Combinatorics [PDF]

open access: closed, 2006
This thesis develops and applies a method of tackling zero-sum additive questions, especially those related to the Erdos-Ginzburg-Ziv Theorem (EGZ), through the use of partitioning sequences into sets, i.e., set partitions. Much of the research can alternatively be found in the literature spread across nine separate articles, but is here collected into

Extremal Combinatorics of Reaction Systems

2014
Extremal combinatorics is the study of the size that a certain collection of objects must have in order to certainly satisfy a property. Reaction systems are a recent formalism for computation inspired by chemical reactions. This work is a first contribution to the study of the behaviour of large reaction systems by means of extremal combinatorics.

Remark on one problem in extremal combinatorics

open access: closedProblems of Information Transmission, 2012
We reduce the problem of determining the maximum number of permutations of a finite set such that any pair of permutations has at least t common transpositions to the problem of determining the maximum number of permutations of finite set such that any pair has at least t common fixed points. The latter problem was solved by the author in [1].

Several problems in extremal combinatorics

2023
In this thesis, we study several problems from combinatorial probability theory, discrete geometry and extremal graph theory. We establish several extremal results towards our problems. Some of the theorems extend or generalize previous results, and others resolve open problems in the literature.
