Light stops are a hallmark of the most natural realizations of weak-scale supersymmetry. While stops have been extensively searched for, there remain open gaps around and below the top mass, due to similarities of stop and top signals with…

We investigate threshold phenomena in weighted $\ell^2$-spaces and characterize the critical regimes where elements with either small support or maximally bad range can be constructed. Our results are shown to be optimal in several…

The expected supremum of a Gaussian process indexed by the image of an index set under a function class is bounded in terms of separate properties of the index set and the function class. The bound is relevant to the estimation of nonlinear…

The spectral gap of local random quantum circuits is a fundamental property that determines how close the moments of the circuit's unitaries match those of a Haar random distribution. When studying spectral gaps, it is common to bound these…

We prove that, in the Baire category sense, a typical measure supported by a compact set admits a linear lower singularity spectrum. We investigate the same question for the upper singularity spectrum and for other forms of genericity.

Let $A=(a_{ij})\in M_n(\R)$ be an $n$ by $n$ symmetric stochastic matrix. For $p\in [1,\infty)$ and a metric space $(X,d_X)$, let $\gamma(A,d_X^p)$ be the infimum over those $\gamma\in (0,\infty]$ for which every $x_1,...,x_n\in X$ satisfy…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $A$ a subset of $G$. The spectrum of $A$ is the set of its large Fourier coefficients. Known combinatorial results on the structure of spectrum, such as Chang's theorem, become trivial in the regime…

We consider a family of measures $\mu$ supported in $\br^d$ and generated in the sense of Hutchinson by a finite family of affine transformations. It is known that interesting sub-families of these measures allow for an orthogonal basis in…

Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…

Given a finite metric, one can construct its tight span, a geometric object representing the metric. The dimension of a tight span encodes, among other things, the size of the space of explanatory trees for that metric; for instance, if the…

We prove upper bounds on the graph diameters of polytopes in two settings. The first is a worst-case bound for polytopes defined by integer constraints in terms of the height of the integers and certain subdeterminants of the constraint…

Let $G(X)$ denote the size of the largest gap between consecutive primes below $X$. Answering a question of Erdos, we show that $$G(X) \geq f(X) \frac{\log X \log \log X \log \log \log \log X}{(\log \log \log X)^2},$$ where $f(X)$ is a…

Let X be a definable sub-set of some o-minimal structure. We study the spectrum of X, in relation with the definability of types.

In our paper we extend some results of the theory of Fourier quasicrystals on the real line to a horizontal strip of finite width. For measures in a strip we use a natural generalization of the usual Fourier transform for measures on the…

Some sharp inequalities of Gruss type for sequences of vectors in real or complex normed linear spaces are obtained. Applications for the discrete Fourier and Mellin transform are given. Estimates for polynomials with coefficients in normed…

We define a function of two real vectors by a certain homogeneous quotient involving power sums, and show that its supremum grows asymptotically linearly w.r.t. the dimension. From this, we deduce a condition under which a parametric set of…

We analyze single particle coherence and interference in the presence of particle loss and derive an inequality that relates the preservation of coherence, the creation of superposition with the vacuum, and the degree of particle loss. We…

We introduce and study the \emph{Fourier spectrum} which is a continuously parametrised family of dimensions living between the Fourier dimension and the Hausdorff dimension for both sets and measures. We establish some fundamental theory…

We investigate some relations between number theory and spectral measures related to the harmonic analysis of a Cantor set. Specifically, we explore ways to determine when an odd natural number $m$ generates a complete or incomplete Fourier…

In the paper, a simple condition guaranteing the finiteness property for a bounded set of matrices is presented. Given a bounded set S of real or complex matrices, it is shown that existence of a sequence of matrix products such that the…
