Neither the Euler-Mascheroni constant, $\gamma=0.577215\ldots$, nor the Euler-Gompertz constant, $\delta=0.596347\ldots$, is currently known to be irrational. However, it has been proved that these two numbers are disjunctively…
In this paper, we first show the existence of solutions to the following system of nonlinear equations \begin{eqnarray*}\left\{\begin{array}{l} a_{11}x_1+a_{12}x_2+a_{13}x_3+\cdots+a_{1n}x_{n} =…
Using an analogy with the rank theorem in differential geometry, it is shown that for a finite $n$-tuple $X$ in a tracial von Neumann algebra and any finite $m$-tuple $F$ of $*$-polynomials in $n$ noncommuting indeterminates,…
For an N-extremal solution $\mu$ to an indeterminate moment problem it is known by a theorem of M. Riesz that the measure $(1+x^2)^{-1}d\mu(x)$ is determinate. For $0<\alpha<1$ we show by contradiction that there exist indeterminate…
In recent years several classical results in extremal graph theory have been improved in a uniform way and their proofs have been simplified and streamlined. These results include a new Erd\H{o}s-Stone-Bollob\'as theorem, several stability…
We consider a general multivariate affine stochastic recursion and the associated Markov chain on $\mathbb R^{d}$. We assume a natural geometric condition which implies existence of an unbounded stationary solution and we show that the…
For every irrational real $\alpha$, let $M(\alpha) = \sup_{n\geq 1} a_n(\alpha)$ denote the largest partial quotient in its continued fraction expansion (or $\infty$, if unbounded). The $2$-adic Littlewood conjecture (2LC) can be stated as…
In this short note, we give an easy proof of the following result: for $ n\geq 2, $ $\underset{t\to0}{\lim} \,e^{it\Delta }f\left(x+\gamma(t)\right) = f(x) $ almost everywhere whenever $ \gamma $ is an $ \alpha- $H\"older curve with $…
Let $\lambda^{*}>0$ denote the largest possible value of $\lambda$ such that $$ \{{array}{lllllll} \Delta^{2}u=\lambda(1+u)^{p} & {in}\ \ \B, %0<u\leq 1 & {in}\ \ \B, u=\frac{\partial u}{\partial n} =0 & {on}\ \ \partial \B {array}. $$ has…
We prove that there are infinitely many solutions of $$ |\lambda_0+\lambda_1p+\lambda_2P_r|<p^{-\tau}, $$ where $r=3,$ $\tau=\frac1{118}$, and $\lambda_0$ is an arbitrary real number and $\lambda_1,\lambda_2\in\BR$ with $\lambda_2\neq0$ and…
In this paper, we consider the Strichartz inequality for a fourth-order Schr\"odinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$. We show that extremizers exist using a linear profile decomposition which follows from the endpoint version decomposition…
Let $Q (z)$ be a holomorphic Hecke cusp newform of square-free level and $u_j (z)$ traverse an orthonormal basis of Hecke--Maass cusp forms of full level. Let $1/4 + t_j^2$ be the Laplace eigenvalue $u_j (z)$. In this paper, we prove that…
We show that for every finite colouring of the natural numbers there exists $a,b >1$ such that the triple $\{a,b,a^b\}$ is monochromatic. We go on to show the partition regularity of a much richer class of patterns involving exponentiation.…
For an $n\times n$ Laplacian random matrix $L$ with Gaussian entries it is proven that the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue and the largest diagonal entry of $L/\sqrt{n-1}$ are Gumbel. We first establish suitable non-asymptotic…
The $A_{\alpha}$-matrix of a graph $G$ is the convex linear combination of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees $D(G)$, i.e., $A_{\alpha}(G) = \alpha D(G) + (1 - \alpha)A(G)$, where $0\leq\alpha \leq1$. The…
