Excluded subposets in the Boolean lattice [PDF]
Discrete 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 ...

An Extremal Problem for Finite Lattices
Theory 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).

, 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.

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

Extremal properties of (epi)Sturmian sequences and distribution modulo 1 [PDF]
, 2009 Starting from a study of Y. Bugeaud and A. Dubickas (2005) on a question in distribution of real numbers modulo 1 via combinatorics on words, we survey some combinatorial properties of (epi)Sturmian sequences and distribution modulo 1 in connection to ...

List graphs and distance-consistent node labelings
Electronic 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).

An extremal problem on trees and database theory [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005 We consider an extremal problem on labelled directed trees and applications to database theory. Among others, we will show explicit keysystems on an underlying set of size $n$, that cannot be represented by a database of less than $2^{n(1-c\cdot \log ...

Donaldson-Thomas invariants, torus knots, and lattice paths [PDF]
, 2018 In this paper we find and explore the correspondence between quivers, torus knots, and combinatorics of counting paths. Our first result pertains to quiver representation theory -- we find explicit formulae for classical generating functions and ...

Hypergraphs with infinitely many extremal constructions
Discrete 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 ...
