 020/1/">The 15 puzzle problem</a>\nby Robert Hough (SUNY at Stony Brook) a
 s part of Combinatorial and additive number theory (CANT 2021)\n\n\nAbstra
 ct\nAn $n^2-1$ puzzle is a children's toy with $n^2-1$ numbered pieces on 
 an $n \\times n$ grid\, \nwith one missing piece.  A move in the puzzle co
 nsists of sliding an adjacent numbered piece \ninto the location of the mi
 ssing piece.  I will discuss joint work with Yang Chu which studies \nthe 
 asymptotic mixing of an $n^2-1$ puzzle when random moves are made.  \nThe 
 techniques involve characteristic function methods for studying the renewa
 l process \ndescribed by the sequence of moves of one or several pieces.\n

 on (CUNY) as part of Combinatorial and additive number theory (CANT 2021)\
 n\n\nAbstract\nLet $A$ be a subset of the integers $\\mathbf Z$\, of the l
 attice ${\\mathbf Z}^n$\, \nor of any additive abelian semigroup $X$.   \n
 The central problem in additive number theory is to understand the $h$-fol
 d sumset \n\\[\nhA = \\{a_1+\\cdots + a_h : a_i \\in A \\text{ for all } i
 =1\,\\ldots\, h \\}.\n\\]\nIf $A$ is finite\, what is the size of the sums
 et $hA$?  If $A$ is infinite\, what is the density \nof $hA$?   What is th
 e structure of the sumset $hA$?   \nDescribe this for small $h$\, and also
  asymptotically as $h \\rightarrow \\infty$.  \nIn how many ways can an el
 ement $x \\in X$ be represented as the sum of $h$ elements \nof $A$?   For
  fixed $r$\, what is the subset of $hA$ consisting of elements that have \
 nat least $r$ representations? \nClassical problems consider sums of squar
 es\, of $k$th powers\, and of primes\, \nbut the general case is also impo
 rtant.  \nThis talk will discuss both old and very recent results about su
 msets.\n

 to be a complement to $W$ if $W\\cdot W'=G$ and it is minimal if no proper
  subset of $W'$ is a \ncomplement to $W$. The notion was introduced by Nat
 hanson in the course of his study of natural \narithmetic analogues of the
  metric concept of nets in the setting of the integers.  \nA notion strong
 er than minimal complements is that of a co-minimal pair.  \nA pair of sub
 sets $(W\,W')$ is a co-minimal pair if $W\\cdot W' = G$ and $W$ is minimal
  \nwith respect to $W'$ and vice-versa. In this talk we shall mainly conce

 ves Bienvenu (Universite de Lyon) as part of Combinatorial and additive nu
 mber theory (CANT 2021)\n\n\nAbstract\nAn additive basis $A$  of a semigro
 up $T$ is a subset such that every element of $T$\, \nup to a finite set o
 f exceptions\, may be written as a sum of one and the same number \n$h$ of
  elements from the basis.  The minimal such number $h$ is called the order
  of the basis. \nWe study bases in a class of infinite abelian semigroups\
 , which we term translatable semigroups. \nThese include all infinite abel
 ian groups as well as the semigroup of nonnegative integers.  \nWe analyze
  the ``robustness" of bases. \nSuch discussions have a long history in the
  semigroup ${\\mathbf N}$\, \noriginating in the work of Erd\\H os and Gra
 ham\, continued by Deschamps and Farhi\, \nNathanson and Nash\, Hegarty...
 .  Thus we consider essential subsets of a basis $A$\, \nthat is\, finite 
 sets $F$ such that $A \\setminus F$ \nis no longer a basis\, and which are
  minimal. We show that any basis has only finitely \nmany essential subset
 s\, and we bound the number of essential subsets of cardinality $k$ \nof a
  basis of order $h$ in terms of $h$ and $k$. \n\nJoint work with Benjamin

 reiman states that sets of integers with small doubling \nare dense subset
 s of $d$--dimensional arithmetic progressions.  \nIn connection with this 
 theorem\,  Freiman conjectured a precise upper bound on the volume \nof a 
 finite $d$--dimensional set $A$ in terms of the cardinality of $A$ and  of
  the sumset $A+A$. \nA set $A\\subset {\\mathbb Z}^d$ is $d$--dimensional 
 if it is not contained in a hyperplane. \nIts volume is the smallest numbe
 r of lattice points in the convex hull of a set $B$ that is Freiman \nisom
 orphic to $A$. The conjecture is equivalent to saying that the extremal se
 ts for this problem \nare long simplices\, consisting of a $d$--dimensiona
 l simplex and an extremal $1$--dimensional \nset in one of the dimensions.
  In this talk we will discuss a proof of the conjecture  for a wide class 
 \nof sets called chains.  A finite set is a chain if there is an ordering 
 of its elements such that initial \nsegments in this ordering are extremal

 Two odd primes $p\,q$ are said to form a symmetric pair if\n$|p-q|=\\gcd(p

 ic pair.  The concept comes from a standard proof\nof quadratic reciprocit
 y where one counts lattice points in the\n$p/2\\times q/2$ rectangle nestl
 ed in the first quadrant\, both above\nand below the diagonal:  $p$ and $q
 $ are a symmetric pair if and only if\nthese counts agree.  Over 20 years 
 ago\, Fletcher\, Lindgren\, and I\nshowed that most primes are {\\it not} 
 symmetric\, though the numerical \nevidence for this is very weak\n(only a
 bout $1/6$ of the primes to $10^6$ are asymmetric).  In a\nnew paper with

 n is the basic idea \nthat convex functions destroy additive structure. Th
 is idea has perhaps been most notably \nquantified in the work of Elekes\,
  Nathanson and Ruzsa\, in which they used incidence geometry \nto prove th
 at at least one of the sets $A+A$ or $f(A)+f(A)$ must be large.\n\nI will 
 discuss joint work with Hanson and Rudnev\, in which we use a stronger not
 ion of convexity \n to make further progress. In particular\, we show that
 \, if $A+A$ is sufficiently small and $f$ \nsatisfies this hyperconvexity 
 condition\, then we have unbounded growth for sums of $f(A)$. \nThis in tu
 rn gives new results for iterated product sets of a set with small sum set

  Trevor Wooley (Purdue University) as part of Combinatorial and additive n

 nand a system of simultaneous polynomial equations $P_1(\\mathbf x)=\\ldot
 s \n=P_r(\\mathbf x)=0$ to be solved with $\\mathbf x\\in A^s$. In many ci
 rcumstances\, one can \nshow that the number $N(A\;\\mathbf P)$ of solutio
 ns of this system satisfies \n$N(A\;\\mathbf P)\\ll X^\\epsilon |A|^\\thet
 a$ for a suitable $\\theta < s$ and any $\\epsilon>0$. \nSuch is the case 
 with modern variants of Vinogradov's mean value theorem due to the \nautho
 r\, and likewise Bourgain\, Demeter and Guth. These estimates become worse
  than trivial \nwhen the diameter $X$ is very large compared to $|A|$\, or
  equivalently\, when the set $A$ is \nvery sparse. This motivates the prob
 lem of seeking new sets of integers $A'$ in a certain \nsense ``isomorphic
 '' to $A$ having the property that (i) the diameter $X'$ of $A'$ is smalle
 r \nthan $X$\, and (ii) the set $A'$ preserves the salient features of the
  solution set of the \nsystem of equations $P_1(\\mathbf x)=\\ldots =P_r(\
 \mathbf x)=0$. We will report on our \nspeculative meditations (both resul

 stract\nWe are interested in the class of 3-connected graphs with a minor 
 isomorphic to a specific 3-connected \ngraph $H$. A 3-connected graph is m
 inimally 3-connected if deleting any edge destroys 3-connectivity. \nSuppo
 se that $G$ is a simple 3-connected graph with a simple 3-connected minor 
 $H$.  \nWe say $G$ is $H$-critical\, if deleting any edge either destroys 
 3-connectivity or the $H$-minor. \nIf $H$ is minimally 3-connected\, then 
 $G$ is also minimally 3-connected\, and the class of $H$-critical \ngraphs
  is the class of minimally 3-connected graphs with an $H$ minor. \nIn gene
 ral\, however\, $H$ is not minimally 3-connected\, and in this case $H$-cr
 itical graphs are not \nminimally 3-connected graphs. Yet we have obtained
  splitter-type structural results for $H$-critical graphs \nthat are very 
 similar to Dawes' result on the structure of minimally 3-connected graphs.

 $ each \nwith at least two elements and $|A||B| <p$. In this case\, we sho
 w that the number of directions \ndetermined is at least $|A||B| - \\min\\
 {|A|\,|B|\\} + 2$.  This gives an upper bound of about $\\sqrt{p/2}$ \non

 Universit\\' e du Littoral C\\^ ote d'Opale\,  France) as part of Combinat
 orial and additive number theory (CANT 2021)\n\n\nAbstract\nA <i>numerical
  semigroup</i> is a submonoid  $S$ of the nonnegative integers with finite
  \ncomplement. Its \\emph{conductor} is the smallest integer $c \\ge 0$ su
 ch that $S$ contains \nall integers $z \\ge c$\, and its \\emph{left part}
  $L$ is the set of all $s \\in S$ such that $s < c$. \nIn 1978\, Wilf aske
 d whether the inequality $n|L| \\ge c$ always holds\, where $n$ is the lea
 st \nnumber of generators of $S$. This is now known as Wilf's conjecture. 
 \nIn this talk\, we present some recent results towards it\, using tools f

 ie Bialostocki (University of Idaho) as part of Combinatorial and additive
  number theory (CANT 2021)\n\n\nAbstract\nAs for the origins\, I will desc
 ribe the birth of the Erd\\H os-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem as I learned it \nfro
 m the late A. Ziv and A. Ginzburg in 2003.  A stimulating conversation wit
 h V. Milman \naround 1980 led me to a broader view of Ramsey Theory. \nI s
 hared some of the ideas with my friends Y. Caro and Y. Roditty. \nY. Caro 
 took a slightly different turn and made several significant contributions.
  \nIn the mid 80's I started my 15-year collaboration with my colleague P.
  Dierker.  In 1989\, \nR. Graham learned about the zero-sum tree conjectur
 e and popularized it. \nIt was solved  by Z. F\\" uredi and D. Kleitman\, 
 and\, independently\, by A. Schrijver \nand P. D. Seymour. In 1990 I visit
 ed Australia and was introduced to a young student M. Kisin\, \nwho made a
  significant contribution toward the multiplicity conjecture\, solved asym
 ptotically \nby Z. Fuͤredi and D. Kleitman. Another milestone was my join
 t paper with P. Erdős and H. Lefman\, \nwhich was the beginning of zero-s
 um theory on the integers. A few of my Ph.D students \nand some of my REU 
 students\, among them D. Grynkiewicz\, made some significant contributions
 . \nBut I believe that my last Ph.D student\, T.D. Luong\, paved the way t
 o future research\,  \nwhich I will call vanishing polynomials.\nThough th
 e abstract describes mainly the history\, much of the lecture will be devo
 ted \nto the present and the future.\n

 torial and additive number theory (CANT 2021)\n\n\nAbstract\nAt the simple
 st level\, an upper bound sieve of Selberg type is a choice of $\\rho(d)$\
 , $d\\leq D$\, with $\\rho(1)=1$\, such that\n$$S = \\sum_{n\\leq N} \\lef
 t(\\sum_{d|n} \\mu(d) \\rho(d)\\right)^2$$\nis as small as possible.\nThe 
 optimal choice of $\\rho(d)$ for given $D$ was found by Selberg. However\,
  for several applications\, it is better to work with functions $\\rho(d)$
  that are scalings of a given continuous or monotonic function $\\eta$. Th
 e question is then: What is the best function $\\eta$\, and how does $S$ f
 or given $\\eta$ and $D$ compare to $S$ for Selberg's choice? \n\nThe most
  common choice of $\\eta$ is that of Barban-Vehov (1968)\, which gives an 
 $S$ with the same main term as Selberg's $S$. We show that Barban and Veho
 v's choice is optimal among all $\\eta$\, not just (as we knew) when it co
 mes to the main term\, but even when it comes to the second-order term\, w
 hich is negative and which we determine explicitly. \n\nJoint work with Em

 na generalization of integer compositions\, where each summand has $k$ pos
 sible colors\, \nexcept for the final part which must be color 1.  Last ye
 ar\, St\\'ephane Ouvry and \nAlexios Polychronakos introduced $g$-composit
 ions which allow for up to $g-2$ zeros \nbetween parts.  Although these do
  not have the same definition and came from very different\nmotivations (n
 umber theory and quantum mechanics\, respectively)\, \nwe will see that th
 ey are equivalent.  One reason these are compelling combinatorial objects 
 \nis their count: there are $(k+1)^{n-1}$ $k$-compositions of $n$.  \nResu
 lts from standard integer compositions can have interesting generalization
 s.  \nFor example\, there are three types of restricted compositions count
 ed by Fibonacci \nnumbers---parts 1 & 2\, odd parts\, and parts greater th
 an 1.  We will explore the diverging \nfamilies of recurrences that arise 
 from applying these restrictions to multicompositions.\n
