Graph compression or sparsification is a basic information-theoretic and computational question. A major open problem in this research area is whether $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate cut-preserving vertex sparsifiers with size close to the number of terminals exist. As a step towards this goal, we initiate the study of a thresholded version of the problem: for a given parameter $c$, …
Let $X$ be a real random variable; a typical anti-concentration inequality asserts that (under certain assumptions) if an interval $I$ has small length, then $\mathbb{P}(X\in I)$ is small, regardless the location of $I$. Inequalities of this type have found powerful applications in many branches of mathematics. In this talk we will discuss several recent applications …
In 2007, Chepoi, Estellon, and Vaxès conjectured that there exists a universal constant $c>0$ such that the following holds for every positive integers $r$ and $k$, and every planar graph $G$: Either $G$ contains $k$ vertex-disjoint balls of radius $r$, or there is a subset of vertices of size at most $c k$ meeting all …
Combinatorics Workshop (조합론 학술대회) is the biggest annual conference in combinatorics in Korea. It was firstly held in 2004 by the Yonsei University BK21 Research Group. It has been advised by the committee of discrete mathematics of the Korean Mathematical Society since 2013. The aim of this workshop is to bring active researchers with different …

In the early 1980s, Beck proved that, if P is a set of n points in the real plane, and no more than g points of P lie on any single line, then there are $\Omega(n(n-g))$ lines that each contain at least 2 points of P. In 2016, I found a generalization of this theorem, …
Maximum induced matching width, also known as mim-width, is a width parameter for graphs introduced by Vatshelle in 2012. This parameter can be defined over branch decompositions of a graph G, where the width of a vertex partition (X,Y) in G is the size of a maximum induced matching in the bipartite graph induced by …
I give a quick survey on stability and NIP(Non-Independent Property). We first review basic facts on the first order logic and give some historical remarks on classification theory in model theory. We review basic properties of stability and NIP. Finally, we aim to give several characterizations of stability and NIP of a given formula in terms of …
