In 2016 Ananyan and Hochster proved Stillman's conjecture by showing the existence of a uniform upper bound on the length of an $R_\eta$-sequence containing fixed $n$ forms of degree at most $d$ in polynomial rings over a field. This result…
We establish uniform bounds for the sup-norms of modular forms of arbitrary real weight $k$ with respect to a finite index subgroup $\Gamma$ of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We also prove corresponding bounds for the supremum over a compact…
The cosmological constant $\Lambda$ is a free parameter in Einstein's equations of gravity. We propose to fix its value with a boundary condition: test particles should be free when outside causal contact, e.g. at infinity. Under this…
We show that on any Riemannian surface for each $0<c<\infty$ there exists an immersed $C^{1,1}$ curve that is smooth and with curvature equal to $\pm c$ away from a point. We give examples showing that, in general, the regularity of the…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. The Erd{\H{o}}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant $\mathsf s(G)$ of $G$ is defined as the smallest integer $l\in \mathbb{N}$ such that every sequence $S$ over $G$ of length $|S|\geq l$ has a zero-sum subsequence $T$…
We provide the final step in the resolution of Bourgain's slicing problem in the affirmative. Thus we establish the following theorem: for any convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ of volume one, there exists a hyperplane $H \subseteq…
Let $f$ be a monic univariate polynomial. We say that $f$ is positive if $f(x)$ is positive over all $x > 0$. If all the coefficients of $f$ are non-negative, then $f$ is trivially positive. In 1883, Poincar\'e proved that $f$ is positive…
We extend the estimates for maximal Fourier restriction operators proved by M\"{u}ller, Ricci, and Wright in \cite{MR3960255} and Ramos in \cite{MR4055940} to the case of arbitrary convex curves in the plane, with constants uniform in the…
We argue that the total observable entropy is bounded by the inverse of the cosmological constant. This holds for all space-times with a positive cosmological constant, including cosmologies dominated by ordinary matter, and recollapsing…
Consider the discrete cubic Hilbert transform defined on finitely supported functions $f$ on $\mathbb{Z}$ by \begin{eqnarray*} H_3f(n) = \sum_{m \not = 0} \frac{f(n- m^3)}{m}. \end{eqnarray*} We prove that there exists $r <2$ and universal…
Let Y be a random d-dimensional subcomplex of the (n-1)-dimensional simplex S obtained by starting with the full (d-1)-dimensional skeleton of S and then adding each d-simplex independently with probability p=c/n. We compute an explicit…
The quantum annulus of type $r$ is the class of invertible operators with singular values in $(1/r,r).$ Given an analytic function on the classical annulus of type $r,$ we may evaluate it on operators in the quantum annulus by The spectral…
The Lieb-Oxford inequality provides a lower bound on the Coulomb energy of a classical system of $N$ identical charges only in terms of their one-particle density. We prove here a new estimate on the best constant in this inequality.…
The Cram\'er-Granville conjecture is an upper bound on prime gaps, $g_n = p_{n+1} - p_n < \cCramer \, \log^2 p_n$ for some constant $\cCramer \geq 1$. Using a formula of Selberg, we first prove the weaker summed version: $\sum_{n=1}^N g_n <…
One classical result of Freimann gives the optimal lower bound for the cardinality of A+A if A is a d-dimensional finite set in the Euclidean d-space. Matolcsi and Ruzsa have recently generalized this lower bound to |A+kB| if B is…
The Goldbach conjecture states that every even number can be decomposed as the sum of two primes. Let $D(N)$ denote the number of such prime decompositions for an even $N$. It is known that $D(N)$ can be bounded above by $$ D(N) \leq C^*…
We determine a lower gap property for the growth of an unbounded \(\mathbb{Z}\)-valued \(k\)-regular sequence. In particular, if \(f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{Z}\) is an unbounded \(k\)-regular sequence, we show that there is a constant \(c>0\)…
Refining the sharp upper bounds $\mu_{k,d}^* $ obtained by Kr\"oger (1999) for the $k$-th Neumann eigenvalue of a convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, we prove the following inequalities: for any $k\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a…
Let A be a finite nonempty subset of an additive abelian group G, and let \Sigma(A) denote the set of all group elements representable as a sum of some subset of A. We prove that |\Sigma(A)| >= |H| + 1/64 |A H|^2 where H is the stabilizer…
We consider the one-dimensional John-Nirenberg inequality: $$ |\{x\in I_0:|f(x)-f_{I_0}|>\a\}|\le C_1|I_0|\exp\Big(-\frac{C_2}{\|f\|_{*}}\a\Big). $$ A. Korenovskii found that the sharp $C_2$ here is $C_2=2/e$. It is shown in this paper that…
