We study a variant of the Falconer distance problem for dot products. In particular, for fractal subsets $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $a,x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study sets of the form \[ \Pi_x^a(A) := \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R} : (a-x)\cdot y=…

We want to bound the symbol length of classes in ${_{2^{m-1}}Br}(F)$ which are represented by tensor products of 5 or 6 cyclic algebras of degree $2^m$. The main ingredients are the chain lemma for quadratic forms, a form of a generalized…

The questions of the measure and finding open intervals in certain sets of sums and products of elements of the middle third Cantor set (or a variant of it), have generated considerable interest recently. A broad general framework that…

Although previous research has found several facts concerning chord lengths of regular polytopes, none of these investigations has considered whether any of these facts define relationships that might generalize to the chord lengths of all…

We obtain bounds on the number of triples that determine a given pair of dot products arising in a vector space over a finite field or a module over the set of integers modulo a power of a prime. More precisely, given $E\subset \mathbb…

Let $\mathcal C= \{k_1<k_2 < \cdots\}$ be Cantor set of integers, that is a set of integers with restricted digits modulo a base $b$, and suppose $0$ is one of the restricted digits. We show that $$ \liminf_N \Expectation_{n\in [N]} m(A\cap…

It is an old question how massive polynomial hulls of Cantor sets in $\mathbb{C}^n$ can be. In contrast to expectation e.g. Rudin, Vitushkin and Henkin showed on examples that it can be rather massive. Motivated by problems of holomorphic…

Erdos, Herzog and Piranian asked whether, for $n$ points in the plane with fixed diameter (maximum distance between points), an arrangement of a regular $n$-gon maximizes their product of all pairs of distances. Recently, it was discovered…

This paper is devoted to the study of lower and upper bounds for the number of vertices of the polytope of $n\times n\times n$ stochastic tensors (i.e., triply stochastic arrays of dimension $n$). By using known results on polytopes (i.e.,…

Four constructions result from a desire to create enhancements to Cantor's infinite real set cardinality. Each continues to keep Cantor's cardinality formulation in place while providing new comparisons of arbitrary infinite sets. To…

Let $N$ be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ boundary components. Let $\mathcal{C}(N)$ be the curve complex of $N$. We prove that if $(g,n) = (3,0)$ or $g + n \geq 5$, then there is an exhaustion of…

For more than a century, Cantor's theory of transfinite numbers has played a pivotal role in set theory, with ramifications that extend to many areas of mathematics. This article extends earlier findings with a fresh look at the critical…

We prove that a self-similar Cantor set in $\mathbb{Z}_N \times \mathbb{Z}_N$ has a fractal uncertainty principle if and only if it does not contain a pair of orthogonal lines. The key ingredient in our proof is a quantitative form of…

Results of Sierpinski and others have shown that certain finite-dimensional product sets can be written as unions of subsets, each of which is "narrow" in a corresponding direction; that is, each line in that direction intersects the subset…

In this paper we study the radial and orthogonal projections and the distance sets of the random Cantor sets $E\subset \mathbb{R}^2 $ which are called Mandelbrot percolation or percolation fractals. We prove that the following assertion…

We present a simple proof that finding a rank-$R$ canonical polyadic decomposition of a 3-dimensional tensor over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ is fixed-parameter tractable with respect to $R$ and $\mathbb{F}$. We also show a nontrivial upper…

A {\em pointed partition} of $n$ is a pair $(\lambda, v)$ where $\lambda\vdash n$ and $v$ is a cell in its Ferrers diagram. We construct an involution on pointed partitions of $n$ exchanging "hook length" and "part length". This gives a…

We prove that every permutation of a Cartesian product of two finite sets can be written as a composition of three permutations, the first of which only modifies the left projection, the second only the right projection, and the third again…

By using a similar pattern of arguments, we show that in three categories the collection of isomorphisms forms a residual subset of the space of morphisms. We first consider surjective continuous mappings on Cantor spaces. Next, we look at…

This paper explores a full generalization of the classical corner-vector method for constructing weighted spherical designs, which we call the {\it generalized corner-vector method}. First we establish a uniform upper bound for the degree…
