We give a very short proof for the Kruskal-Katona theorem and Lovhsz's version of it: given (~) k-element sets there are at least (k~\_l) (k -1)-element sets which are contained in at least one of the k-sets.
An extension of the Kruskal-Katona theorem to colored hypergraphs was given by Frankl, Fiiredi and Kalai in [Shadows of colored complexes, Mathematics Scandinavica]. Here we give a new simple proof.
While various techniques have been used to demonstrate the classical four squares theorem for the rational integers, the method of modular forms of two variables has been the standard way of dealing with sums of squares problems for integers in quadratic fields. The case of representations by sums o
