Ramsey numbers of cycles versus general graphs

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2023
The Ramsey number $R(F,H)$ is the minimum number N such that any N-vertex graph either contains a copy of F or its complement contains H. Burr in 1981 proved a pleasingly general result that, for any graph H, provided n is sufficiently large, a ...

Chromatic Turán problems and a new upper bound for the Turán density of $\mathcal{K}_4^-$ [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005
We consider a new type of extremal hypergraph problem: given an $r$-graph $\mathcal{F}$ and an integer $k≥2$ determine the maximum number of edges in an $\mathcal{F}$-free, $k$-colourable $r$-graph on $n$ vertices.

Substructure Densities in Extremal Combinatorics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
One of the primary goals of combinatorial mathematics is to understand how an object's properties are influenced by the presence or multiplicity of a given substructure. Over time, it has become popular to highlight the asymptotic behaviour of objects by expressing results in terms of the density of substructures.

On the quaternion projective space

open access: yesJournal of Taibah University for Science, 2020
Apart from being a vital and exciting field in mathematics with interesting results, projective spaces have various applications in design theory, coding theory, physics, combinatorics, number theory and extremal combinatorial problems. In this paper, we

Short proofs of some extremal results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We prove several results from different areas of extremal combinatorics, giving complete or partial solutions to a number of open problems. These results, coming from areas such as extremal graph theory, Ramsey theory and additive combinatorics, have ...

Positional Games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Positional games are a branch of combinatorics, researching a variety of two-player games, ranging from popular recreational games such as Tic-Tac-Toe and Hex, to purely abstract games played on graphs and hypergraphs.

An Extremal Problem for Finite Lattices

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2016
For a fixed M x N integer lattice L(M,N), we consider the maximum size of a subset A of L(M,N) which contains no squares of prescribed side lengths k(1),...,k(t).

The topological symmetric orbifold

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We analyze topological orbifold conformal field theories on the symmetric product of a complex surface M. By exploiting the mathematics literature we show that a canonical quotient of the operator ring has structure constants given by Hurwitz numbers ...

Excluded subposets in the Boolean lattice [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005
We are looking for the maximum number of subsets of an n-element set not containing 4 distinct subsets satisfying $A ⊂B, C ⊂B, C ⊂D$. It is proved that this number is at least the number of the $\lfloor \frac{n }{ 2}\rfloor$ -element sets times $1+\frac ...
