We introduce a new discrepancy score between two distributions that gives an indication on their similarity. While much research has been done to determine if two samples come from exactly the same distribution, much less research…

This paper studies the problem of perturbed convex and smooth optimization. The main results describe how the solution and the value of the problem change if the objective function is perturbed. Examples include linear, quadratic, and…

A subset $A$ of an additive abelian group is an $h$-Sidon set if every element in the $h$-fold sumset $hA$ has a unique representation as the sum of $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. Let $\mathbf{F}$ be a field of characteristic…

We provide a new exponent for the Sum-Product conjecture on $\mathbb{R} $. Namely for $A \subset \mathbb{R}$ finite, \[ \max \left\{ \left\lvert A+A \right\rvert , \left\lvert AA \right\rvert \right\} \gg_{\epsilon} \left\lvert A…

We systematically explore a class of constrained optimization problems with linear objective function and constraints that are linear combinations of logarithms of the optimization variables. Such problems can be viewed as a generalization…

Probabilistic models are proposed for bounding the forward error in the numerically computed inner product (dot product, scalar product) between of two real $n$-vectors. We derive probabilistic perturbation bounds, as well as probabilistic…

It was asked by E. Szemer\'edi if, for a finite set $A\subset\mathbb{Z}$, one can improve estimates for $\max\{|A+A|,|A\cdot A|\}$, under the constraint that all integers involved have a bounded number of prime factors -- that is, each…

In this paper we prove new bounds for sums of convex or concave functions. Specifically, we prove that for all $A,B \subseteq \mathbb R$ finite sets, and for all $f,g$ convex or concave functions, we have $$|A + B|^{38}|f(A) + g(B)|^{38}…

We classify the polynomials $f(x,y) \in \mathbb R[x,y]$ such that given any finite set $A \subset \mathbb R$ if $|A+A|$ is small, then $|f(A,A)|$ is large. In particular, the following bound holds : $|A+A||f(A,A)| \gtrsim |A|^{5/2}.$ The…

In this paper we obtain a series of asymptotic formulae in the sum--product phenomena over the prime field $\mathbf{F}_p$. In the proofs we use usual incidence theorems in $\mathbf{F}_p$, as well as the growth result in ${\rm SL}_2…

Let $A \subset \mathbb{R}$ be finite. We quantitatively improve the Balog-Wooley decomposition, that is $A$ can be partitioned into sets $B$ and $C$ such that $$\max\{E^+(B) , E^{\times}(C)\} \lesssim |A|^{3 - 7/26}, \ \ \max \{E^+(B,A) ,…

A method is suggested for treating those complicated physical problems for which exact solutions are not known but a few approximation terms of a calculational algorithm can be derived. The method permits one to answer the following rather…

We consider a property of positive polynomials on a compact set with a small perturbation. When applied to a Polynomial Optimization Problem (POP), the property implies that the optimal value of the corresponding SemiDefinite Programming…

This is an expository survey on recent sum-product results in finite fields. We present a number of sum-product or "expander" results that say that if $|A| > p^{2/3}$ then some set determined by sums and product of elements of $A$ is nearly…

We improve a previous sum--products estimates in R, namely, we obtain that max{|A+A|,|AA|} \gg |A|^{4/3+c}, where c any number less than 5/9813. New lower bounds for sums of sets with small the product set are found. Also we prove some pure…

In this paper, we study sums of shifted products $\sum\limits_{n \leq x} F(n) G(n-h)$ for any $|h| \leq x/2$ and arithmetic functions $F=f*1$ and $G=g*1$, with $f$ and $g$ small. We obtain asymptotic formula for different orders of…

Utilising recent advances in incidence geometry for balls and tubes, and advances in sum-product theory in the discrete setting, we show that for $0 < s \leq 1/2$ and for any $A \subset \mathbb{R}$ with Hausdorff dimension $s$, either the…

We improve a result of Solymosi on sum-products in R, namely, we prove that max{|A+A|,|AA|}\gg |A|^{4/3+c}, where c>0 is an absolute constant. New lower bounds for sums of sets with small product set are found. Previous results are improved…

Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be a finite field of prime order $p$ and let $A \subset \mathbb{F}_p$ be a subset. In the dense regime when $|A| \geq \alpha p$ for some $\alpha \in (0,1)$, we determine the optimal constant $f(\alpha)$ in the inequality…

Under certain circumstances, some of which are made explicit here, one can deduce bounds on the full sum of a perturbation series of a physical quantity by using a variational Borel map on the partial series. The method is illustrated by…
