The Chernoff-Hoeffding bounds are fundamental probabilistic tools. An elementary approach is presented to obtain a Chernoff-type upper-tail bound for the number of prime factors o...
We give an extension of the lower bound of [9] for the number of Tverberg partitions from the prime to the prime power case. Our proof is inspired by the Zp-index version of the p...
We show that the number of maximal sum-free subsets of {1, 2, . . . , n} is at most 23n/8+o(n) . We also show that 20.406n+o(n) is an upper bound on the number of maximal product-...
Abstract. This paper examines the bifurcation and structure of the bifurcated solutions of the two-dimensional infinite Prandtl number convection problem. The existence of a bifur...
