abstract

Alon, Bohman, Holzman and Kleitman proved that any partition of a $d$-dimensional discrete box into proper sub-boxes must consist of at least $2^d$ sub-boxes. Recently, Leader, Mili\'{c}evi\'{c} and Tan considered the question of how many odd-sized proper boxes are needed to partition a $d$-dimensional box of odd size, and they asked whether the trivial construction consisting of $3^d$ boxes is best possible. We show that approximately $2.93^d$ boxes are enough, and consider some natural generalisations.

  1. New bounds for double covers of the discrete box {0,1,2}^d

    math.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10 partial

    First nontrivial lower bounds for double covers of {0,1,2}^d: f(4)≥19, f(5)≥33, f(6)≥60 (Lean-checked), with upper bounds f(6)≤81 and asymptotic constant improved to 8/7.
