Additive combinatorics and number theory
Hančl, Jaroslav ; Klazar, Martin (advisor)
We present several results for growth functions of ideals of different com- binatorial structures. An ideal is a set downward closed under a containment relation, like the relation of subpartition for partitions, or the relation of induced subgraph for graphs etc. Its growth function (GF) counts elements of given size. For partition ideals we establish an asymptotics for GF of ideals that do not use parts from a finite set S and use this to construct ideal with highly oscillating GF. Then we present application characterising GF of particular partition ideals. We generalize ideals of ordered graphs to ordered uniform hypergraphs and show two dichotomies for their GF. The first result is a constant to linear jump for k-uniform hypergraphs. The second result establishes the polynomial to exponential jump for 3-uniform hypergraphs. That is, there are no ordered hypergraph ideals with GF strictly inside the constant-linear and polynomial- exponential range. We obtain in both dichotomies tight upper bounds. Finally, in a quite general setting we present several methods how to generate for various combinatorial structures pairs of sets defining two ideals with iden- tical GF. We call these pairs Wilf equivalent pairs and use the automorphism method and the replacement method to obtain such pairs. 1

Matrices without forbidden interval minors
Surma, David ; Jelínek, Vít (advisor) ; Klazar, Martin (referee)
In the thesis, we study the structure of binary matrices which do not contain a pat- tern P as an interval minor. We also deal with matrices that are critical for P, i.e., matrices without P which after changing any 0-entry to 1-entry contain the forbidden pattern P. First, we describe matrices critical for any one-line pattern. Then we deal with all patterns with two rows and three columns which contain at most four 1-entries. Finally, we characterize the matrices critical for the alternating pattern of size 2 × 4. 1

Enumeration of polyomino fillings
Karpilovskij, Mark ; Jelínek, Vít (advisor) ; Klazar, Martin (referee)
We prove two new results about 0-1-fillings of skew diagrams avoiding long increasing and decreasing chains. In the first half of the thesis, we show that for a large class of skew diagrams, there is a bijection between sparse fillings avoiding an increasing chain of fixed length and sparse fillings avoiding a decreas- ing chain of the same length. In the second half, we extend a known inequality between the number of sparse 0-1-fillings of skew diagrams avoiding an increasing chain of length 2 and a decreasing chain of length 2 to all 0-1-fillings. 1

Hereditary classes of binary matrices
Kučera, Stanislav ; Jelínek, Vít (advisor) ; Klazar, Martin (referee)
Interval minors of binary matrices were introduced by Jacob Fox in the study of Stanley-Wilf limits. We study what can be implied from their relation to the theory of pattern avoidance of submatrices, which is a very popular area of discrete mathematics. We start by characterizing matrices avoiding small interval minors. We then consider classes of matrices closed under interval minors and we find classes of matrices that cannot be described by a finite number of forbidden interval minors. We also define and study a variant of a classical extremal Tur'an- type question studied in the area of combinatorics of permutations and binary matrices and in combinatorial geometry. 1

Pattern-avoiding permutation classes
Opler, Michal ; Jelínek, Vít (advisor) ; Klazar, Martin (referee)
For a permutation π, the major index of π is the sum of all indices i such that πi > πi+1. In this thesis, we study the distribution of the major index over pattern-avoiding permutations of length n. We focus on the number Mm n (Π) of permutations of length n with major index m and avoiding the set of patterns Π. First, we are able to show that for a singleton set Π = {σ} other than some trivial cases, the values Mm n (Π) are monotonic in the sense that Mm n (Π) ≤ Mm n+1(Π). Our main result is a study of the asymptotic behaviour of Mm n (Π) as n goes to infinity. We prove that for every fixed m, Π and n large enough, Mm n (Π) is equal to a polynomial in n and moreover, we are able to determine the degrees of these polynomials for many sets of patterns. 1

Enumeration of compositions with forbidden patterns
Dodova, Borjana ; Klazar, Martin (advisor) ; Jelínek, Vít (referee)
Enumeration of pattern avoiding compositions of numbers Abstract The aim of this work was to find some new results for 3-regular compositions, i.e., for those compositions which avoid the set of patterns {121, 212, 11}. Those compositions can be regarded as a generalization of Carlitz composition. Based on the generating function of compositions avoiding the set of patterns {121, 11} and {212, 11} we derive an upper bound for the coefficients of the power series of the generating function of 3-regular compositions. Using the theory of finite automata we derive its lower bound. We develop this result further by defining 3-block compositions. For the generating function of 3-regular compositions we prove a recursive ralation. Besides that we also compute the generating function of compositions avoiding the set of patterns {312, 321} whose parts are in the set [d]. In the last section we prove that the generating function of Carlitz compositions is transcendental.

Dissections of triangles and distances of groups
Szabados, Michal ; Drápal, Aleš (advisor) ; Klazar, Martin (referee)
Denote by gdist(p) the least number of cells that have to be changed to get a latin square from the table of addition modulo prime p. A conjecture of Drápal, Cavenagh and Wanless states that there exists c > 0 such that gdist(p) ≤ c log(p). In this work we prove the conjecture for c ≈ 7.21, and the proof is done by constructing a dissection of an equilateral triangle of side n into O(log(n)) equilateral triangles. We also show a proof of the lower bound c log(p) ≤ gdist(p) with improved constant c ≈ 2.73. At the end of the work we present computational data which suggest that gdist(p)/ log(p) ≈ 3.56 for large values of p.

Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions
Krkavec, Michal ; Klazar, Martin (advisor) ; Kráľ, Daniel (referee)
Title: Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions Author: Michal Krkavec Department: Department of Applied Mathematics Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Martin Klazar, Dr., Department of Applied Mathematics Abstract: In the presented summary work we study sets of natural numbers not containing arithmetic progressions. The aim of this thesis is to provide an overview and comparison of both analytical and combinatorial proofs of Roth's theorem, which states that every set of positive upper asymptotic density contains arithme- tic progression of length three. We also focus on the Erd˝os-Turán conjecture and Szemerédi's theorem, which finally settled the conjecture for arithmetic progres- sions of arbitrary length k. In the end, we introduce the bounds for the number r3(n), which corresponds to the largest size of a subset A ⊆ [n], which contains no arithmetic progressions of length three. At the end we present two constructions of progression-free sets. Keywords: Additive number theory, Arithmetic progressions, Roth's theorem, Elkin's construction 1
