Tuza's Ryser-conjecture claim for four-partite hypergraphs with matching number two

Patrick White

We prove that every $4$ -partite $4$ -uniform hypergraph $H$ with matching number $ν (H) = 2$ satisfies $τ (H) \leq 6$ , where $τ$ denotes the vertex-cover number. This confirms a claim mad…

A closed form for the block-statistic generating function of the $2 \times n$ rectangle: the two-row case of Kahane's conjecture

Patrick White

Kahane (arXiv:2607.11225) proves that for a fence poset $P$ of size $n$ , $n! Ω (P; t) = \sum_{σ \in S_{n}} t^{bl (σ)}$ , with $bl (σ)$ a canonical block count, and conject…

The small Davenport constant of the Heisenberg group of order 125

Patrick White

The small Davenport constant $d (G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the maximal length of a product-one-free sequence over $G$ . For the exponent- $p$ Heisenberg group $H_{p^{3}}$ of…

New bounds for double covers of the discrete box {0,1,2}^d

Patrick White

A proper sub-box of $A = {0, 1, 2}^{d}$ is a product $S_{1} \times \dots \times S_{d}$ with each $\emptyset \neq = S_{i} ⊊ {0, 1, 2}$ . A double cover is a finite multiset of proper sub-bo…
