Bjarne Schülke, A local version of Katona’s intersection theorem

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

Katona's intersection theorem states that every intersecting family $\mathcal F\subseteq^{(k)}$ satisfies $\vert\partial\mathcal F\vert\geq\vert\mathcal F\vert$, where $\partial\mathcal F=\{F\setminus x:x\in F\in\mathcal F\}$ is the shadow of $\mathcal F$. Frankl conjectured that for $n>2k$ and every intersecting family $\mathcal F\subseteq ^{(k)}$, there is some $i\in$ such that $\vert \partial \mathcal F(i)\vert\geq \vert\mathcal F(i)\vert$, where $\mathcal F(i)=\{F\setminus i:i\in F\in\mathcal

Dömötör Pálvölgyi, C-P3O: Orientation of convex sets and other good covers

Zoom ID: 870 0312 9412 (ibsecopro) [CLOSED]

We introduce a novel definition of orientation on the triples of a family of pairwise intersecting planar convex sets and study its properties. In particular, we compare it to other systems of orientations on triples that satisfy a natural interiority condition. Such systems, P3O (partial 3-order), are a natural generalization of posets, and include the

The Structural Theorem of the Graph Minors series of Robertson and Seymour asserts that, for every $t\in\mathbb{N},$ there exists some constant $c_{t}$ such that every $K_{t}$-minor-free graph admits a tree decomposition whose torsos can be transformed, by the removal of at most $c_{t}$ vertices, to graphs that can be seen as the union of some

Mehtaab Sawhney, Anticoncentration in Ramsey graphs and a proof of the Erdős-McKay conjecture

Zoom ID: 870 0312 9412 (ibsecopro) [CLOSED]

An $n$-vertex graph is called $C$-Ramsey if it has no clique or independent set of size $C\log_2 n$ (i.e., if it has near-optimal Ramsey behavior). We study edge-statistics in Ramsey graphs, in particular obtaining very precise control of the distribution of the number of edges in a random vertex subset of a $C$-Ramsey graph. One

Van der Waerden's theorem states that any coloring of $\mathbb{N}$ with a finite number of colors will contain arbitrarily long monochromatic arithmetic progressions. This motivates the definition of the van der Waerden number $W(r,k)$ which is the smallest $n$ such that any $r$-coloring of $\{1,2,\cdots,n\}$ guarantees the presence of a monochromatic arithmetic progression of length

Santiago Guzmán-Pro, Local expressions of graphs classes

Zoom ID: 869 4632 6610 (ibsdimag)

A common technique to characterize hereditary graph classes is to exhibit their minimal obstructions. Sometimes, the set of minimal obstructions might be infinite, or too complicated to describe. For instance, for any $k\ge 3$, the set of minimal obstructions of the class of $k$-colourable graphs is yet unknown. Nonetheless, the Roy-Gallai-Hasse-Vitaver Theorem asserts that a graph $G$

Zixiang Xu (徐子翔), On the degenerate Turán problems

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

For a graph $F$, the Turán number is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex simple graph not containing $F$. The celebrated Erdős-Stone-Simonovits Theorem gives that \ where $\chi(F)$ is the chromatic number of $H$. This theorem asymptotically solves the problem when $\chi(F)\geqslant 3$. In case of bipartite graphs $F$, not even the order of magnitude

Konstantin Tikhomirov, A remark on the Ramsey number of the hypercube

Zoom ID: 870 0312 9412 (ibsecopro) [CLOSED]

A well-known conjecture of Burr and Erdős asserts that the Ramsey number $r(Q_n)$ of the hypercube $Q_n$ on $2^n$ vertices is of the order $O(2^n)$. In this paper, we show that $r(Q_n)=O(2^{2n−cn})$ for a universal constant $c>0$, improving upon the previous best-known bound $r(Q_n)=O(2^{2n})$, due to Conlon, Fox, and Sudakov.

Nika Salia, Exact results for generalized extremal problems forbidding an even cycle

Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)

We determine the maximum number of copies of $K_{s,s}$ in a $C_{2s+2}$-free $n$-vertex graph for all integers $s \ge 2$ and sufficiently large $n$. Moreover, for $s\in\{2,3\}$ and any integer $n$ we obtain the maximum number of cycles of length $2s$ in an $n$-vertex $C_{2s+2}$-free bipartite graph. This is joint work with Ervin Győri (Renyi

Xavier Goaoc, Order types and their symmetries

Room 1501, Bldg. E6-1, KAIST

Order types are a combinatorial classification of finite point sets used in discrete and computational geometry. This talk will give an introduction to these objects and their analogue for the projective plane, with an emphasis on their symmetry groups. This is joint work with Emo Welzl.
