The infinite pigeonhole principle for 2-partitions asserts the existence, for every set $A$, of an infinite subset of $A$ or of its complement. In this paper, we develop a new notion of forcing enabling a fine analysis of the…

We give a lower bound for the essential dimension of isogenies of complex abelian varieties. The bound is sharp in many cases. In particular, the multiplication-by-$m$ map is incompressible for every $m\geq 2$, confirming a conjecture of…

We improve some results of Pavlov and of Filatova, respectively, concerning a problem of Malychin by showing that every regular space X that satisfies Delta(X)>ext(X) is omega-resolvable. Here Delta(X), the dispersion character of X, is the…

We study the reconstruction problem of permutation sequences from their $k$-minors, which are subsequences of length $k$ with entries renumbered by $1,2,\ldots,k$ preserving order. We prove that the minimum number $k$ such that any…

We prove that, for any $\varepsilon>0$, the number of real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ of discriminant $d<x$ whose class number is $\ll \sqrt{d}(\log{d})^{-2}(\log\log{d})^{-1}$ is at least $x^{1/2-\varepsilon}$ for $x$ large…

Inspired by Conway's surreal numbers, we study real closed fields whose value group is isomorphic to the additive reduct of the field. We call such fields omega-fields and we prove that any omega-field of bounded Hahn series with real…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain. For any $\epsilon\in (0,1)$ we show that for any Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_k(\Omega)>\Lambda(\epsilon,\Omega)$, it holds \begin{align*} k&\le…

Let $P\in \mathbb Z[X]\setminus\{0\}$ be of degree $\delta\ge 1$ and usual height $H\ge 1$, and let $\alpha\in \overline{\mathbb Q}^*$ be of degree $d\ge 2$. Mahler proved in 1931 the following transcendence measure for $e^\alpha$: for any…

We show that for a transcendental entire function the set of points whose orbit under iteration is bounded can have arbitrarily small positive Hausdorff dimension.

This paper is motivated by the following question in sieve theory. Given a subset $X\subset [N]$ and $\alpha\in (0,1/2)$. Suppose that $|X\pmod p|\leq (\alpha+o(1))p$ for every prime $p$. How large can $X$ be? On the one hand, we have the…

We continue the study of model-independent constraints on the unitary Conformal Field Theories in 4-Dimensions, initiated in arXiv:0807.0004. Our main result is an improved upper bound on the dimension \Delta of the leading scalar operator…

We study the size (or volume) of balls in the metric space of permutations, $S_n$, under the infinity metric. We focus on the regime of balls with radius $r = \rho \cdot (n\!-\!1)$, $\rho \in [0,1]$, i.e., a radius that is a constant…

Corrections to scaling in the two-dimensional scalar phi^4 model are studied based on non-perturbative analytical arguments and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation data for different lattice sizes L (from 4 to 1536) and different values of the…

In this paper we give subexponential size hitting sets for bounded depth multilinear arithmetic formulas. Using the known relation between black-box PIT and lower bounds we obtain lower bounds for these models. For depth-3 multilinear…

Let $k$ and $N$ be positive integers with $k\ge2$ even. In this paper we give general explicit upper-bounds in terms of $k$ and $N$ from which all the residual representations $\bar{\rho}_{f,\lambda}$ attached to non-CM newforms of weight…

We show that the large sieve is optimal for almost all exponential sums, thus proving a conjecture by Erd\"os and Renyi.

A classic theorem of Kazhdan and Margulis states that for any semisimple Lie group without compact factors, there is a positive lower bound on the covolume of lattices. H. C. Wang's subsequent quantitative analysis showed that the…
