We study the set of square-free parts of volume polynomials associated with four planar lattice polytopes. This is motivated by the problem of describing possible pairwise intersection numbers of four curves in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^2$ with…

We use the famous knot-theoretic consequence of Freedman's disc theorem---knots with trivial Alexander polynomial bound a locally-flat disc in the 4-ball---to prove the following generalization. The degree of the Alexander polynomial of a…

We classify, according to their computational complexity, integer optimization problems whose constraints and objective functions are polynomials with integer coefficients and the number of variables is fixed. For the optimization of an…

In 2021, Ordentlich, Regev and Weiss made a breakthrough that the lattice covering density of any $n$-dimensional convex body is upper bounded by $cn^{2}$, improving on the best previous bound established by Rogers in 1959. However, for the…

Given a lattice polygon $P$ with $g$ interior lattice points, we associate to it the moduli space of tropical curves of genus $g$ with Newton polygon $P$. We completely classify the possible dimensions such a moduli space can have. For…

In this paper we study the average $\NL_{2\alpha}$-norm over $T$-polynomials, where $\alpha$ is a positive integer. More precisely, we present an explicit formula for the average $\NL_{2\alpha}$-norm over all the polynomials of degree…

We prove an upper bound of the form $2^{O(d^2 \mathrm{polylog}\,d)}$ on the number of affine (resp. linear) equivalence classes of, by increasing order of generality, 2-level d-polytopes, d-cones and d-configurations. This in particular…

We study the Minkowski length L(P) of a lattice polytope P, which is defined to be the largest number of non-trivial primitive segments whose Minkowski sum lies in P. The Minkowski length represents the largest possible number of factors in…

As a discrete analog to Minkowski's theorem on convex bodies, Wills conjectured that the Ehrhart coefficients of a centrally symmetric lattice polytope with exactly one interior lattice point are maximized by those of the cube of side…

We investigate the upper bounds of nodal sets for solutions of bi-Laplace equations without using frequency functions which play an essential role in the study of nodal sets in the celebrated work by Logunov \cite{Lo18}. We obtain some…

In any connected non-compact semi-simple Lie group without factors locally isomorphic to SL_2(R), there can be only finitely many lattices (up to isomorphism) of a given covolume. We show that there exist arbitrarily large families of…

In 1980, V.I. Arnold studied the classification problem for convex lattice polygons of given area. Since then this problem and its analogues have been studied by B'ar'any, Pach, Vershik, Liu, Zong and others. Upper bounds for the numbers of…

The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the $p$-th Betti number of the \v{C}ech complex of any set of $N$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ and any radius satisfies $\beta_{p} = O(N^{m})$, with $m = \min \{ p+1, \lceil d/2 \rceil…

We consider convex sets whose modulus of convexity is uniformly quadratic. First, we observe several interesting relations between different positions of such ``2-convex'' bodies; in particular, the isotropic position is a finite…

Consider a subset [1,2,...,n]x[1,2,...,n] of the plane integer lattice. Take any non self-intersecting n^2-gon built on it (straight angles are allowed). The square of a side length is a positive integer. It is thus natural to ask how large…

A lattice in the Euclidean space is standard if it has a basis consisting vectors whose norms equal to the length in its successive minima. In this paper, it is shown that with the $L^2$ norm all lattices of dimension $n$ are standard if…
