Some New Ramsey Colorings
New lower bounds for 15 classical Ramsey numbers are established. Several of the colorings are found using a new variation of local search heuristics. Several others are found usi...

Sub-Ramsey Numbers for Arithmetic Progressions and Schur Triples
For a given positive integer k, sr(m, k) denotes the minimal positive integer such that every coloring of [n], n ≥ sr(m, k), that uses each color at most k times, yields a rainb...

The Quantum Adversary Method and Classical Formula Size Lower Bounds
We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...

A Series of Run-Rich Strings
We present a new series of run-rich strings, and give a new lower bound 0.94457567 of the maximum number of runs in a string. We also introduce the general conjecture about a asymp...

Satisfiability and Computing van der Waerden Numbers
In this paper we bring together the areas of combinatorics and propositional satisfiability. Many combinatorial theorems establish, often constructively, the existence of positive...
