Anticoncentration of sums of random vectors: on conjectures of
Leader-Radcliffe and Lee Jones
Tomas Juškevičius
Czech Academy of Sciences
February 24, 2022, 12:20 in S6
Abstract
In this talk we shall address the topic anticoncentration inequalities
for sums of random vectors. In particular, we shall asymptotically
establish two conjectures: one by Lee Jones (1978) and another by
Leader-Radcliffe (1994). Perhaps surprisingly, the essential ingredient
to establish the latter result is the Strong Perfect Graph Theorem by
Chudnovsky, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas (2002). The talk is based on
recent joint work with V. Kurauskas (Vilnius University).

GRAPHS OF LARGE CHROMATIC NUMBER
A. D. Scott

Abstract.
The chromatic number has been a~fundamental topic of study in graph theory
for more than 150 years. Graph colouring has a~deep combinatorial theory
and, as with
many NP-hard problems, is of interest in both mathematics and computer
science. An
important challenge is to understand graphs with very large chromatic
number. The
chromatic number tells us something global about the structure of a
graph: if $G$ has
small chromatic number then it can be partitioned into a~few very simple
pieces. But
what if $G$ has large chromatic number? Is there anything that we can
say about its
local structure? In particular, are there particular substructures that
it must
contain? In this talk, we will discuss recent progress and open problems
in this area.
