For large $R$, we consider measurable sets $A\subseteq [0,R]^2$ that avoid triples of points of the form $(x,y)$, $(x+t,y)$, $(x,y+1/t)$ with $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$ and $t>0$, i.e., the vertices of upward-oriented, axis-aligned right triangles…

We study the complex spectrum of the partial theta function \[ \Theta(q,x)=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j, \qquad |q|<1, \] where a spectral value is a parameter for which \(\Theta(q,\cdot)\) has a multiple zero. Since the function is…

We generalize the classical Ceva's and Menelaus's theorems to curvilinear triangles bounded by circular arcs. We introduce trilinear coordinates associated with such triangles and develop several geometric constructions. In particular, for…

The spectrum of Ramanujan's partial theta function $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$, $q\in \mathbb{D}_1$ (the unit disk centered at the origin), $x\in \mathbb{C}$, is the set of values of the parameter $q$ for which…

In this paper we prove the WALA conjecture.

The $(-1)$-Jacobi, Bannai-Ito, and $(-1)$-Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials are studied in [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 364 (2012), 5491-5507], [Adv. Math. 229 (2012), 2123-2158], and [Stud. Appl. Math. 153 (2024), e12728], respectively, through…

In this paper, we prove a spectral restriction theorem on the three-dimensional Heisenberg nilmanifold. Since this manifold is an $\mathbb S^1$-bundle over the flat torus $\mathbb T^2$, the result provides a sub-elliptic counterpart of…

In this paper, we study the dual Minkowski problem under group symmetry. For $0<q\le n$, we give a complete existence characterization in the framework of $G$-invariant convex bodies when the group $G\subset O(n)$ has no nonzero fixed…

This paper gives a complete description of the solutions of the global positioning problem, emphasizing the under-determined case. We show that the solutions form a quadric, which may degenerate in various ways. Perhaps more surprisingly,…

We obtain estimates in simultaneous approximation for a summation-integral type genuine hybrid operator. The convergence of derivatives of operator to the corresponding derivatives of the functions is proved and estimates for rate of…

We study the geodesic flow on the unit cotangent bundle $M=S^{*}\mathcal{N}$ of a closed hyperbolic surface $\mathcal{N}$, using the representation theory of $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$. We construct explicit $X$-adapted Hilbert spaces, obtained…

Let $E \subset \mathbb R^d$, $d \ge 2$, be compact, and let $\phi(x,y)$ be a smooth function satisfying the Phong--Stein rotational curvature condition on $\{\phi(x,y)=1\}$. We prove that if $\dim_{\mathcal H}(E)>1$, then $$…

This paper revisits the notion of classical orthogonal polynomials from a broader functional-analytic point of view. It is intended neither as a survey of known results nor as a review of the literature, but rather as a conceptual…

We give an affirmative full-range solution to Gaunt's 2019 Open Problem~2.10. The problem asks whether, for every \(\nu>-1/2\) and \(0<\gamma<1\), the reciprocal-power integral \(\int_0^x e^{-\gamma t}I_\nu(t)t^{-\nu}\,\dd t\) is bounded by…

In this paper, we develop a mixed quantization technique for graph vector bundles and apply it to several asymptotic spectral problems, including the Alon-Boppana bound, the Kesten-McKay law, asymptotic determinant, quantum ergodicity, zero…

We define a distance analogous to the Gromov-Hausdorff distance that enables the comparison of arbitrary quasi-isometric spaces. We also investigate properties preserved under limits with respect to this distance, as well as properties of…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain. For any $\epsilon\in (0,1)$ we show that for any Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_k(\Omega)>\Lambda(\epsilon,\Omega)$, it holds \begin{align*} k&\le…

We introduce and study the \emph{Fourier spectrum} which is a continuously parametrised family of dimensions living between the Fourier dimension and the Hausdorff dimension for both sets and measures. We establish some fundamental theory…

This work studies spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators in the context of aperiodic order, using weighted Delone sets to explore the interplay between the underlying dynamics and spectral properties. We study parameter-dependent…

We use the high-low method and wavepacket pruning to prove new small-cap decoupling estimates for the moment curve in $\mathbb{R}^4$. As an application, we verify a conjecture of Demeter regarding the $L^{12}$ square-root cancellation of…
