A tight bound for affine-linearity, via universal ballot matrices

Apoorva Khare, Ashwin Sah

Based on work with Greenfeld and with Ziegler, Tao showed a concatenation result that if a map is affine-linear on every line parallel to the coor…

A central limit theorem for the matching number of a sparse random graph

Margalit Glasgow, Matthew Kwan, Ashwin Sah +1

In 1981, Karp and Sipser proved a law of large numbers for the matching number of a sparse Erdős-Rényi random graph, in an influential paper pioneering the so-called differential…

Quasipolynomial bounds on the inverse theorem for the Gowers -norm

James Leng, Ashwin Sah, Mehtaab Sawhney

We prove quasipolynomial bounds on the inverse theorem for the Gowers -norm. The proof is modeled after work of Green, Tao, and Ziegler and uses as a crucial input rece…

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

Matthew Kwan, Ashwin Sah, Lisa Sauermann +1

An -vertex graph is called -Ramsey if it has no clique or independent set of size (i.e., if it has near-optimal Ramsey behavior). In this paper, we study edge-sta…

Enumerating Matroids and Linear Spaces

Matthew Kwan, Ashwin Sah, Mehtaab Sawhney

We show that the number of linear spaces on a set of points and the number of rank-3 matroids on a ground set of size are both of the form , where $c=e^{…

High-Girth Steiner Triple Systems

Matthew Kwan, Ashwin Sah, Mehtaab Sawhney +1

We prove a 1973 conjecture due to Erdős on the existence of Steiner triple systems with arbitrarily high girth.
