We study Lusin-measurable functions with values in locally convex spaces. In particular, the behavior of pointwise limits of sequences of Lusin-measurable functions and exhibit pathological phenomena arising in the nonmetrizable setting.…

The scope of this text is to study a process that induces another proof of the Spectral Embedding Theorem: that any densely defined symmetric operator can be extended by a multiplication operator through an embedding of the Hilbert space…

Let $\mathcal{H}(b)$ be the de Branges-Rovnyak space associated to a non-extreme point $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, and let $\phi=b/a$, where $a$ is the Pythagorean mate of $b$. It is known that, if $f$ is a function holomorphic on a…

In this note, we give short proofs of three theorems concerning extremal problems in the Johnson scheme, or, in other terminology, on $(n,k,L)$-systems. The main result is a proof of the Aljohani--Bamberg--Cameron conjecture which claims…

We characterize all lattices $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and all compactly supported functions $g \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ for which the Gabor system $\left \{ e^{2\pi i s x} g(x-t) : (t,s) \in \Lambda \right \}$ forms an orthonormal basis…

We extend the notion of mex, which is central in combinatorial number theory, to an arbitrary combinatorial structure, and we prove a general theorem to determine the generating function of the objects having fixed mex. We then study this…

We consider Subtraction Nim, where two players have exactly the same options, but which is partizan in the sense that at the game ending, a partizan rule is applied for the decision of the winner. We consider the following example: Let $S$…

We prove that the spaces $\ell_p(C(\alpha))$ and $\ell_p(C[0,1])$ have the uniform primary factorisation property whenever $\alpha$ is an ordinal and $1<p\leq\infty$. For the case $p=1$, we establish a general criterion ensuring that…

We study a question of Harju from 2019 regarding the existence of infinite ternary square-free words whose subsequences modulo $p$ and $q$ are also square-free for relatively prime integers $p$ and $q$. Among such pairs $(p, q)$ with $p, q…

We introduce variants of the Maker-Breaker and Waiter-Client games, which we call \emph{stotting}, in which a player grants a slight advantage to the opponent. We prove that a winning strategy in either stotting variant yields winning…

In this note, we provide a family of $2\times 2$ tetrablock contractions that have tetrablock isometric dilation, but the corresponding fundamental operators do not commute. This answers a question raised by Bhattacharyya [Indiana Univ.…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra and let $\rho$ denote the sum of the fundamental weights. The irreducible highest weight representations $V(m\rho)$ occupy a distinguished position in representation theory due to…

Given $m \in \mathbb{N}$ and a $p$-random subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, we asymptotically determine $\log \Pr(|\mathbb{N} \setminus (A + A)| \ge m)$ for $p$ above the threshold for this property. The proof is based on a bespoke container…

This paper studies frames in Hilbert spaces generated by the orbits of (in)-finitely many vectors under a single operator, presenting new results on multiplication operators and operators composed of Jordan blocks, which generalizes…

Martingales, Markov processes and Laws of Large Numbers have been well studied in the Riesz space (vector lattice) setting. There has, however, been no attention given in the Riesz space setting to Laws of Small Numbers or to the so called…

Let $G_1$ denote the incidence graph of the complete graph $K_{q+1}$. We study limited augmented Zarankiewicz numbers in this family by combining exact 0--1 ILP computations for the smallest cases with a constructive search procedure…

For a conditional expectation operator $T$ on a Dedekind complete Riesz space, we give representations of the $T$-strong duals of $L^1(T)$ and $L^\infty(T)$. The representation for the $T$-strong dual of $L^1(T)$ follows from the known…

We derive the local and central limit theorems for the Stirling numbers of the second kind by elementary means, obtaining as corollaries effective asymptotic estimates for the Bell numbers and for the moments of the distribution. We also…

We determine the sharp threshold for Hamilton cycles in randomly perturbed sparse graphs. For any $\alpha=\alpha(n)=o(1)$, let $G_{\alpha}$ be an $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree $\delta(G_{\alpha})\ge\alpha n$. We prove that if…

Given a group $G$, the model $\mathcal{G}(G,p)$ denotes the probability space of all Cayley graphs of $G$ where each element of $G$ is included in the generating set independently at random with probability $p$. In this article, we…
