We show that the size of a minimal simplicial cover of a polytope $P$ is a lower bound for the size of a minimal triangulation of $P$, including ones with extra vertices. We then use this fact to study minimal triangulations of cubes, and…

We study the minimal number of variables required by a totally positive definite diagonal universal quadratic form over a real quadratic field $\mathbb Q(\sqrt D)$ and obtain lower and upper bounds for it in terms of certain sums of…

Let $\mathbb{I}$ denote an imaginary quadratic field or the field $\mathbb{Q}$ of rational numbers and $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$ its ring of intergers. We shall prove an explicit Baker type lower bound for $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$-linear…

Extended modular group $\bar{\Pi}=<R,T,U:R^2=T^2=U^3=(RT)^2=(RU)^2=1>$, where $ R:z\rightarrow -\bar{z}, \sim T:z\rightarrow\frac{-1}{z},\simU:z\rightarrow\frac{-1}{z +1} $, has been used to study some properties of the binary quadratic…

We prove the genus-one restriction of the all-genus Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau conjecture of Chiodo and Ruan, stated in terms of the geometric quantization of an explicit symplectomorphism determined by genus-zero invariants. This provides…

In this paper, we develop a lower bound for the double slice genus of a knot using Casson-Gordon invariants. As an application, we show that the double slice genus can be arbitrarily larger than twice the slice genus. As an analogue to the…

Originally motivated by questions of P. Etingof related to growth rates of tensor powers in symmetric tensor categories, we obtain general bounds on the order of finite subgroups of ${\rm GL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ with restricted composition…

We find a lower bound to the size of finite groups detecting a given word in the free group, more precisely we construct a word w_n of length n in non-abelian free groups with the property that w_n is the identity on all finite quotients of…

We give an explicit upper bound for the algebraic degree and an explicit lower bound for the absolute value of the minimum of a polynomial function on a compact connected component of a basic closed semialgebraic set when this minimum is…

We prove a quantitative version of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic ternary indefinite quadratic forms. Our results are inspired by and analogous to recent results for diagonal quadratic forms due to Bourgain.

Let ${\mathfrak p}\subset {\mathfrak g}$ be a parabolic subalgebra of s simple finite dimensional Lie algebra over ${\mathbb C}$. To each pair $w^{\mathfrak a}\leq w^{\mathfrak c}$ of minimal left coset representatives in the quotient space…

In this paper, we investigate an approach to circuit lower bounds via bounded width circuits. The approach consists of two steps: (i) We convert circuits to (deterministic or nondeterministic) bounded width circuits. (ii) We prove lower…

We give a bound on the number of weighted real forms of a complex variety with finite automorphism group, where the weight is the inverse of the number of automorphisms of the real form. We give another bound involving the Sylow 2-subgroup…

In this note, pointwise best-possible (lower and upper) bounds on the set of copulas with a given value of the Gini's gamma coefficient are established. It is shown that, unlike the best-possible bounds on the set of copulas with a given…

We obtain new bounds on short Weil sums over small multiplicative subgroups of prime finite fields which remain nontrivial in the range the classical Weil bound is already trivial. The method we use is a blend of techniques coming from…

In this article we sketch the development of the principal genus theorem from its conception by Gauss in the case of binary quadratic forms to the cohomological formulation of the principal genus theorem of class field theory by Emmy…

The weight distribution of a linear code C is put in an explicit bijective correspondence with Duursma's reduced polynomial of C. We prove that the Riemann Hypothesis Analogue for a linear code C requires the formal self-duality of C and…

We introduce a new link invariant called the algebraic genus, which gives an upper bound for the topological slice genus of links. In fact, the algebraic genus is an upper bound for another version of the slice genus proposed here: the…
