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.

Extremal Combinatorics in Geometry and Graph Theory

open access: closed, 2013
We study a problem in extremal geometry posed by Paul Erdos and George Szekeres in 1935. This problem is to find the smallest positive integer N(n) such that every point set in general position (no three on a line) of N(n) points contains the vertex set of a convex n-gon.

On a Bound in Extremal Combinatorics

Doklady Mathematics, 2018
A new statement of a recent theorem of [1, 2] on the maximum number of edges in a hypergraph with forbidden cardinalities of edge intersections is given. This statement is fundamentally simpler than the original one, which makes it possible to obtain important corollaries in combinatorial geometry and Ramsey theory.

New results in extremal combinatorics [PDF]

open access: possible, 2021
Extremal problems, in general, ask for the optimal size of certain finite objects when some restrictions are imposed. In extremal combinatorics, a major field in combinatorics, one studies how global properties guarantee the existence of local substructures, or equivalently, how avoiding local substructures poses a constraint on global quantities.

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.

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.

Problems in Coding Theory and Extremal Combinatorics

2020
This dissertation consists of ?five papers whose subjects are mostly disjoint. Below are their abstracts and citation information.On a fractional version of Haemers' bound. In this note, we present a fractional version of Haemers' bound on the Shannon capacity of a graph, which is originally due to Blasiak.

Extremal Results in and out of Additive Combinatorics

2020
In this thesis, we study several related topics in extremal combinatorics, all tied together by various themes from additive combinatorics and combinatorial geometry. First, we discuss some extremal problems where local properties are used to derive global properties.

Applications of Continuous Combinatorics to Quasirandomness and Extremal Combinatorics

2021
The theory of limits of dense combinatorial objects studies the asymptotic behavior of densities of small templates in an increasing sequence of combinatorial objects. The inaugural limit theory of graphons captures limits of graph sequences in a semantic limit object that can be thought of as a fractional version of an adjacency matrix. Since graphons
