Celebrated theorems of Roth and of Matouv{s}ek and Spencer together show that the discrepancy of arithmetic progressions in the first $n$ positive integers is $Theta(n^{1/4})$. We study the analogous problem in the $mathbb{Z}_n$ setting. We asymptotically determine the logarithm of the discrepancy of arithmetic progressions in $mathbb{Z}_n$ for all positive integer $n$. We further determine up to a constant factor the discrepancy of arithmetic progressions in $mathbb{Z}_n$ for many $n$. For example, if $n=p^k$ is a prime power, then the discrepancy of arithmetic progressions in $mathbb{Z}_n$ is $Theta(n^{1/3+r_k/(6k)})$, where $r_k in {0,1,2}$ is the remainder when $k$ is divided by $3$. This solves a problem of Hebbinghaus and Srivastav.
Let the random variable $X, :=, e(mathcal{H}[B])$ count the number of edges of a hypergraph $mathcal{H}$ induced by a random $m$ element subset $B$ of its vertex set. Focussing on the case that $mathcal{H}$ satisfies some regularity condition we prov
In this paper, we investigate the anti-Ramsey (more precisely, anti-van der Waerden) properties of arithmetic progressions. For positive integers $n$ and $k$, the expression $aw([n],k)$ denotes the smallest number of colors with which the integers ${
In this note we are interested in the problem of whether or not every increasing sequence of positive integers $x_1x_2x_3...$ with bounded gaps must contain a double 3-term arithmetic progression, i.e., three terms $x_i$, $x_j$, and $x_k$ such that $
We present results on the existence of long arithmetic progressions in the Thue-Morse word and in a class of generalised Thue-Morse words. Our arguments are inspired by van der Waerdens proof for the existence of arbitrary long monochromatic arithmet
Dirichlets proof of infinitely many primes in arithmetic progressions was published in 1837, introduced L-series for the first time, and it is said to have started rigorous analytic number theory. Dirichlet uses Eulers earlier work on the zeta functi
