Matroid flat counts can have many peaks

Alexander Divoux, Matt Larson, Chayim Lowen +1

We disprove Rota's conjecture that the counts of flats in a matroid according to rank form a unimodal sequence. Furthermore, we show that this sequence can have arbitrarily many pe…

Matroid flat counts are not unimodal

Alexander Divoux, Chayim Lowen, Shouda Wang

We give counterexamples to Rota's 1970 conjecture that the sequence counting flats of varying rank in a matroid is unimodal. More specifically, inspired by Larson's recent disproof…

Extremal Graphs for the Lights Out Problem

Julien Codsi, Sergio Cristancho, Alexander Divoux +1

Lights Out is a game played on a graph where every vertex has a light bulb that is either on or off, and pressing a vertex toggles the state of every vertex in the closed n…

Asymptotic structure. V. The coarse Menger conjecture in bounded path-width

Alex Divoux, Tung Nguyen, Alex Scott +1

Menger's theorem tells us that if are sets of vertices in a graph , then (for ) either there are vertex-disjoint paths between and , or there is a set…

Entropy Bounds for Perfect Matchings in Bipartite Hypergraphs

Tantan Dai, Alexander Divoux, Tom Kelly

A hypergraph is \textit{bipartite with bipartition } if every edge has exactly one vertex in , and a matching in such a hypergraph is \textit{-perfect} if it saturate…

Subsquares in random Latin squares and rectangles

Alexander Divoux, Tom Kelly, Camille Kennedy +1

A partial Latin rectangle is \textit{-sparse} if the number of nonempty entries in each row and column is at most and each symbol is used at most times. We…
