We prove a no-dimensional version of Carath\'edory's theorem: given an $n$-element set $P\subset \Re^d$, a point $a \in \conv P$, and an integer $r\le d$, $r \le n$, there is a subset $Q\subset P$ of $r$ elements such that the distance…
We give a short proof that Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture implies that for every $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists a $(3/2^{2/3} + \varepsilon)^n$-time algorithm for set cover on a universe of size $n$ with sets of bounded size. This…
We classify Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein singularities whose anticanonical linear system has no base points but does not give an embedding, and we classify anticanonically embedded Fano 3-folds with canonical Gorenstein…
We conjecture that every three dimensional canonical singularity defines a five dimensional N=1 SCFT. Flavor symmetry can be found from singularity structure: non-abelian flavor symmetry is read from the singularity type over one…
In this paper, we show that any proof of the Collatz 3n+1 Conjecture must have an infinite number of lines; therefore, no formal proof is possible.
This paper deals with the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrices of threshold graphs for which $-1$ and $0$ are considered as trivial eigenvalues. We show that threshold graphs have no non-trivial eigenvalues in the interval…
A famous conjecture about group algebras of torsion-free groups states that there is no zero divisor in such group algebras. A recent approach to settle the conjecture is to show the non-existence of zero divisors with respect to the length…
We study differentiability of topological conjugacies between expanding piecewise $C^{1+\epsilon}$ interval maps. If these conjugacies are not $C^1$, then they have zero derivative almost everywhere. We obtain the result that in this case…
The focus of this paper is to show the absence of critical points for the solutions to the Helmholtz equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{3}$, given by \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\rm{div}(a\,\nabla u_{\omega}^{g})-\omega…
We construct subsets of {1,...,N} of cardinality at least N exp(-C(log N)^{1/(k+1)}) which do not contain arithmetic progressions of length 2^k+1. This extends a result of Behrend (1946) concerning sets which do not contain aritmetic…
We establish an injective correspondence $M\longrightarrow\mathcal E(M)$ between real-analytic nonminimal hypersurfaces $M\subset\mathbb{C}^{2}$, spherical at a generic point, and a class of second order complex ODEs with a meromorphic…
We prove that every set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$ spans $O(n^{295/197+\epsilon})$ unit distances. This is an improvement over the previous bound of $O(n^{3/2})$. A key ingredient in the proof is a new result for cutting circles in…
In this paper we prove the "Tiling implies Spectral" part of Fuglede's paper for the case of three intervals. Then we prove the "Spectral implies Tiling" part of the conjecture for the case of three equal intervals as also when the…
This paper proves the non-existence of common K\"ahler submanifolds of the complex Euclidean space and the symmetrized polydisc endowed with their canonical metrics.
We improve the lower bound on the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} in which no 3-term arithmetic progression occurs as a subsequence, and derive lower bounds on the upper and lower densities of subsets of the positive integers that can…
We prove that the conditions $\lambda<5/19$ and $L\le T^{1/2}$ in Theorems 3 and 4 of our recent paper "On the $p^{\lambda}$ problem" can be omitted.
It is proved that the global log canonical threshold of a Zariski general Fano complete intersection of index 1 and codimension $k$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ is equal to one, if $M\geqslant 2k+3$ and the maximum of the degrees of defining…
We prove a conjecture of Helleseth that claims that for any $n \geq 0$, a pair of binary maximal linear sequences of period $2^{2^n}-1$ can not have a three-valued cross-correlation function.
We consider the probability that no points lie on $g$ large intervals in the bulk of the Airy point process. We make a conjecture for all the terms in the asymptotics up to and including the oscillations of order $1$, and we prove this…
We prove the normality of minimal log canonical centers on threefold pairs which residue fields are perfect of residue characteristics $p\neq 2,3 $ and $5$. We also show that the union of all log canonical centers on threefold pairs with…
