We prove that for a large class of functions $P$ and $Q$, there exists $d\in (0,1)$ such that the discrete bilinear Radon transform $$B^{\rm dis}_{P,Q}(f,g)(n)=\sum_{m\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\}} f(n-P(m))g(n-Q(m))\frac{1}{m}$$ is bounded…
Let P(x) be a one-variable Laurent polynomial of degree (d_1,d_2) over a finite field of characteristic p. For any fixed positive integer s not divisible by p, we prove that the (normalized) p-adic Newton polygon of the L-functions of…
For a semialgebraic set K in R^n, let P_d(K) be the cone of polynomials in R^n of degrees at most d that are nonnegative on K. This paper studies the geometry of its boundary. When K=R^n and d is even, we show that its boundary lies on the…
Toomre's $Q$ stability parameter has long been shown through various theoretical arguments and numerical simulations, to be the principal determinant of stability against self-gravity in a galactic disk, under classical gravity. Comparison…
Let f be a degree d polynomial defined over the nonarchimedean field C_p, normalized so f is monic and f(0)=0. We say f is post-critically bounded, or PCB, if all of its critical points have bounded orbit under iteration of f. It is known…
A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection x --> c-x. Given 0 < x < 1, there exists a real number D(x) with the following property: if 0 < d < D(x), then every subset of [0,1] with measure x contains…
We study the boundary of the cone of real polynomials that can be decomposed as a sum of squares (SOS) of real polynomials. This cone is included in the cone of nonnegative polynomials and both cones share a part of their boundary, which…
Let $P_1,...,P_n$ be generic homogeneous polynomials in $n$ variables of degrees $d_1,...,d_n$ respectively. We prove that if $\nu$ is an integer satisfying ${\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}-n+1-\min\{d_i\}<\nu,$ then all multivariate subresultants…
We obtain polylogarithmic bounds in the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem when the polynomials have distinct degrees and zero constant terms. Specifically, let $P_1, \dots, P_m \in \mathbb Z[y]$ be polynomials with distinct degrees, each…
In this paper we prove that the complex polynomial Bohnenblust-Hille constant for $2$-homogeneous polynomials in ${\mathbb C}^2$ is exactly $\sqrt[4]{\frac{3}{2}}$. We also give the exact value of the real polynomial Bohnenblust-Hille…
Consider an $n\times n$ matrix polynomial $P(\lambda)$ and a set $\Sigma$ consisting of $k \le n$ distinct complex numbers. In this paper, a (weighted) spectral norm distance from $P(\lambda)$ to the matrix polynomials whose spectra include…

We provide an upper bound for the Gromov width of compact homogeneous Hodge manifolds $(M, \omega)$ with $b_2(M)=1$. As an application we obtain an upper bound on the Seshadri constant $\epsilon (L)$ where $L$ is the ample line bundle on…
Let $G$ be a finite group, $p$ a prime and $P$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. In this note we give a cohomological criterion for the $p$-solvability of $G$ depending on the cohomology in degree $1$ with coefficients in $\mathbb F_p$ of both…
We study inequalities connecting the product of uniform norms of polynomials with the norm of their product. This circle of problems include the Gelfond-Mahler inequality for the unit disk and the Kneser-Borwein inequality for the segment…
A periodically inhomogeneous Schrodinger equation is considered. The inhomogeneity is reflected through a non-uniform coefficient of the linear and non-linear term in the equation. Due to the periodic inhomogeneity of the linear term, the…
The denominators $d_n$ of the harmonic number $1+\frac12+\frac13+\cdots+\frac1n$ do not increase monotonically with~$n$. It is conjectured that $d_n=D_n={\rm LCM}(1,2,\ldots,n)$ infinitely often. For an odd prime $p$, the set…

It was recently proved by Bayart et al. that the complex polynomial Bohnenblust--Hille inequality is subexponential. We show that, for real scalars, this does no longer hold. Moreover, we show that, if $D_{\mathbb{R},m}$ stands for the real…
For a polygon $P$ with holes in the plane, we denote by $\varrho(P)$ the ratio between the geodesic and the Euclidean diameters of $P$. It is shown that over all convex polygons with $h$~convex holes, the supremum of $\varrho(P)$ is between…
