A unit-distance graph in the plane with independence ratio below 1/4

Ákos Dúcz, Dániel Varga

We prove that there exists a finite unit-distance graph in the plane with independence ratio strictly smaller than 1/4, answering a question of Erdős. Our proof closely follows th…

Improved bounds for the double cap conjecture

Domonkos Czifra, Ákos Dúcz, Máté Matolcsi +2

In 1974, Witsenhausen asked for the maximum possible density of a measurable subset of the unit sphere such that contains no p…

Triplets of Mutually Unbiased Bases

Máte Matolcsi, Ákos K. Matszangosz, Dániel Varga +1

We initiate a systematic study of triplets of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs). We show that in each MUB-triplet is characterized by a object that…

Diverse beam search to find densest-known planar unit distance graphs

Peter Engel, Owen Hammond-Lee, Yiheng Su +2

This paper addresses the problem of determining the maximum number of edges in a unit distance graph (UDG) of vertices using computer search. An unsolved problem of Paul Erdős…

The fractional chromatic number of the plane is at least 4

Máté Matolcsi, Imre Z. Ruzsa, Dániel Varga +1

We prove that the fractional chromatic number of the unit distance graph of the Euclidean plane is greater than or equal to . Interestingly, however, we cann…

Piercing intersecting convex sets

Imre Bárány, Travis Dillon, Dömötör Pálvölgyi +1

Assume two finite families and of convex sets in have the property that for every and $B\in \math…
