Hypergraphs with infinitely many extremal constructions

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis, 2023
Hypergraphs with infinitely many extremal constructions, Discrete Analysis 2023:18, 34 pp. A fundamental result in extremal graph theory, Turán's theorem, states that the maximal number of edges of a graph with $n$ vertices that does not contain a ...

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.

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 ...

A question of Bukh on sums of dilates

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis, 2021
A question of Bukh on sums of dilates, Discrete Analysis 2021:13, 21 pp. Let $A$ and $B$ be subsets of an Abelian group. Their sumset $A+B$ is defined to be the set of all $a+b$ such that $a\in A$ and $b\in B$.

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).

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 ...

A characterization of extremal graphs with no matching-cut [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005
A graph is called (matching-)immune if it has no edge cut that is also a matching. Farley and Proskurowski proved that for all immune graphs $G=(V,E)$, $|E|≥\lceil 3(|V|-1)/2\rceil$ , and constructed a large class of immune graphs that attain this lower ...

Random multilinear maps and the Erdős box problem

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis, 2021
Random multilinear maps and the Erdős box problem, Discrete Analysis 2021:17, 8 pp. A major theme in extremal combinatorics is determining the maximum number of edges that a graph or hypergraph can have if it does not contain a certain fixed graph or ...

Supersaturation and stability for forbidden subposet problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We address a supersaturation problem in the context of forbidden subposets. A family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets is said to contain the poset $P$ if there is an injection $i:P \rightarrow \mathcal{F}$ such that $p \le_P q$ implies $i(p) \subset i (q)$.

List graphs and distance-consistent node labelings

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2018
In this paper we consider node labelings c of an undirected connected graph G = (V, E) with labels {1, 2, ..., ∣V∣}, which induce a list distance c(u, v) = ∣c(v) − c(u)∣ besides the usual graph distance d(u, v).
