We show that, for a free abelian group $G$ and prime power $p^\nu$, every direct sum decomposition of the group $G/p^\nu G$ lifts to a direct sum decomposition of $G$. This is the key result we use to show that, if $R$ is a commutative von…

We prove strong and explicit diameter bounds for finite simple Lie algebras, which parallel Babai's conjecture for finite simple groups. Specifically, we show that any nonabelian finite simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbf{F}_p$…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $V$ a finite dimensional (non-zero) orthogonal $G$-module such that, for each prime $p$ dividing the order of $G$, the subspace of $V$ fixed by a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ is non-zero and, if the dimension of…

Let $A$ be a sufficiently dense subset of a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ or a finite, cyclic ring $\mathbb Z/ N\mathbb Z$. Assuming that $q$ and $N$ have no small prime divisors, we show that generalised Fermat equations have the expected…

We prove that the $\frac12$-snowflake of a finite-dimensional normed space $(X,\|\cdot\|_X)$ embeds into a Hilbert space with quadratic average distortion $$O\Big(\sqrt{\log \mathrm{dim}(X)}\Big).$$ We deduce from this (optimal) statement…

We introduce an invariant, called mean rank, for any module M of the integral group ring of a discrete amenable group $\Gamma$, as an analogue of the rank of an abelian group. It is shown that the mean dimension of the induced…

Let $\mathbf{k}$ be a field and let $V: \mathscr{C} \to \mathbf{k}\textup{-Mod}$ be a point-wise finite dimensional persistence modules, where $\mathscr{C}$ is a small category. Assume that for all local Artinian $\mathbf{k}$-algebras $R$…

Let F be a local net of von Neumann algebras in four spacetime dimensions satisfying certain natural structural assumptions. We prove that if F has trivial superselection structure then every covariant, Haag-dual subsystem B is the fixed…

In this paper, we give common coincidence point and common fixed point theorems for four self maps in the setting of generalized TAC-contraction in partial b-metric space. Also, we give an example to authenticate the viability of the…

We prove the four-dimensional Gaussian random vector maximum conjecture. This conjecture asserts that among all centered Gaussian random vectors $X=(X_1,X_2,X_3,X_4)$ with $E[X_i^2]=1$, $1\le i\le 4$, the expectation…

We prove a pointwise version of the multi-dimensional central limit theorem for convex bodies. Namely, let X be an isotropic random vector in R^n with a log-concave density. For a typical subspace E in R^n of dimension n^c, consider the…

In this short paper, an older Efron's result is extended to obtain a cutting plane integral formula for the mean volume of a random simplex in any d dimensions.

Answering a question of Frank Calegari, we extend some of our earlier results on dimension of fixed point spaces of elements in irreducible linear groups. We consider characteristic polynomials rather than just fixed spaces.

It has been conjectured by P\'{o}lya and Szeg\"{o} seventy years ago that the planar set which minimizes the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-Laplace operator among polygons with $n$ sides and fixed area is the regular polygon. Despite its…

Let F be a fixed finite field of characteristic at least 5. Let G = F^n be the n-dimensional vector space over F, and write N := |G|. We show that if A is a subset of G with size at least c_F N(log N)^{-c}, for some absolute constant c > 0…

We review and study some of the properties of smooth Gaussian random fields defined on a homogeneous space, under the assumption that the probability distribution is invariant under the isometry group of the space. We first give an…

This paper is concerned with absolutely irreducible quasisimple subgroups $G$ of a finite general linear group $GL_d(\mathbb{F}_q)$ for which some element $g\in G$ of prime order $r$, in its action on the natural module…

Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff group in which every element is of finite order, and let P(G) denote the class of all regular probability measures on G. In this note, it is observed that a characterization of algebraically regular…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $V$ be a completely reducible faithful $G$-module. It has been known for a long time that if $G$ is abelian, then $G$ has a regular orbit on $V$. In this paper we show that $G$ has an orbit of size at…

We prove that a region in a two-dimensional affine subspace of a normed space $V$ has the least 2-dimensional Hausdorff measure among all compact surfaces with the same boundary. Furthermore, the 2-dimensional Hausdorff area density admits…
