We consider a polynomial $P\in \mathbb{R}[x_{1},\cdots, x_{d}]$ of degree $ \delta $ that depends non-trivially on each of $x_1,...,x_d$ with $d\geq 2$. For any integer $t$ with $2\leq t\leq d$, any natural number $n \in \mathbb{N}$, and…
The main result of this paper is that for any $1/2 \leq s < 2 - \sqrt{2} \approx 0.5858$, there is a number $\sigma = \sigma(s) < s$ with the following property. Let $\delta > 0$ be small, assume that $A \subset [0,1]$ is a…
We prove a formula which compares intersection numbers of conormal varieties of two projective varieties and their dual varieties. When one of them is linear, we can recover the usual Plucker formula for the degree of the dual variety. The…
This paper considers an extremal version of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem. For a point set $P \subset \mathbb R^d$, let $\Delta(P)$ denote the set of all Euclidean distances determined by $P$. Our main result is the following: if…
The Hirsch Conjecture (1957) stated that the graph of a $d$-dimensional polytope with $n$ facets cannot have (combinatorial) diameter greater than $n-d$. That is, that any two vertices of the polytope can be connected by a path of at most…
Let $\delta_0(P,k)$ denote the degree $k$ dilation of a point set $P$ in the domain of plane geometric spanners. If $\Lambda$ is the infinite square lattice, it is shown that $1+\sqrt{2} \leq \delta_0(\Lambda,3) \leq (3+2\sqrt2) \, 5^{-1/2}…
In this article we study operators with a dimension $\Delta\sim O(N)$ and show that simple analytic expressions for the action of the dilatation operator can be found. The operators we consider are restricted Schur polynomials. There are…
Fix integers $r\geq 4$ and $i\geq 2$ (for $r=4$ assume $i\geq 3$). Assuming that the rational number $s$ defined by the equation $\binom{i+1}{2}s+(i+1)=\binom{r+i}{i}$ is an integer, we prove an upper bound for the genus of a reduced and…
Finding a good bound on the maximal edge diameter $\Delta(d,n)$ of a polytope in terms of its dimension $d$ and the number of its facets $n$ is one of the basic open questions in polytope theory \cite{BG}. Although some bounds are known,…
We classify all the irrational pencils over the surfaces of general type with p=q=2. This classification adds a new evidence to a Catanese conjecture which states that if S has p=q=2 but no irrational pencils then it is the double cover of…
We prove that every $L$-bilipschitz mapping $\mathbb{Z}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ can be extended to a $C(L)$-bilipschitz mapping $\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ and provide a polynomial upper bound for $C(L)$. Moreover, we extend the result to every…
It was proved by Nill that for any lattice simplex of dimension $d$ with degree $s$ which is not a lattice pyramid, the inequality $d+1 \leq 4s-1$ holds. In this paper, we give a complete characterization of lattice simplices satisfying the…
We consider the following question. Suppose that $d\ge2$ and $n$ are fixed, and that $\theta_1,\theta_2,\dots,\theta_n$ are $n$ specified angles. How many points do we need to place in $\mathbb{R}^d$ to realise all of these angles? A simple…
We give two results concerning the power of the Sum-of-Squares(SoS)/Lasserre hierarchy. For binary polynomial optimization problems of degree $2d$ and an odd number of variables $n$, we prove that $\frac{n+2d-1}{2}$ levels of the…
We prove that the Hilbert scheme of points on a normal quasi-projective surface with at worst rational double point singularities is irreducible.
We work over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. Ellingsrud-Peskine proved that smooth surfaces in P^4 are subject to strong limitations. Their whole argument is derived from the fact that the sectional genus of…
We consider supersymmetry in five dimensions, where the fermionic parameters are a 2-form under SL(5). Supermultiplets are investigated using the pure spinor superfield formalism, and are found to be closely related to infinite-dimensional…
According to the G\"ottsche conjecture (now a theorem), the degree N^{d, delta} of the Severi variety of plane curves of degree d with delta nodes is given by a polynomial in d, provided d is large enough. These "node polynomials"…
An expression is given for the plethysm $p_{2}\circ S_{\square}$, where $p_{2}$ is the power sum of degree two and $S_{\square}$ is the Schur function indexed by a rectangular partition. The formula can be well understood from the viewpoint…
Building on previous works of H. L. Bray, of P. Miao, and of S. Almaraz, E. Barbosa, and L. L. de Lima, we develop a doubling procedure for asymptotically flat half-spaces $(M,g)$ with horizon boundary $\Sigma\subset M$ and mass…
