We consider the problem of minimizing a given $n$-variate polynomial $f$ over the hypercube $[-1,1]^n$. An idea introduced by Lasserre, is to find a probability distribution on $[-1,1]^n$ with polynomial density function $h$ (of given…

Assuming $V=L$, we construct a plane set $E$ of Hausdorff dimension $1$ whose every orthogonal projection onto straight lines through the origin has Hausdorff dimension $0$. This is a counterexample to J. M. Marstrand's seminal projection…

We give a constructive proof of a theorem of Naor and Neiman, (to appear, Revista Matematica Iberoamercana), which asserts that if $(E,d)$ is a doubling metric space, there is an integer $N > 0$, that depends only on the metric doubling…

We prove that if $\mu$ is a Radon measure on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ such that the density $\Theta^s(\mu,\cdot)$, computed with respect to the Kor\'anyi metric $d_H$, exists and is positive and finite on a set of positive $\mu$…

In this short note we prove a lemma about the dimension of certain algebraic sets of matrices. This result is needed in our paper arXiv:1201.1672. The result presented here has also applications in other situations and so it should appear…

Let $\mathcal{D}=(d_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a bounded sequence of integers with $d_n\ge 2$ and let $(i, j)$ be a pair of strictly positive numbers with $i+j=1$. We prove that the set of $x \in \RR$ for which there exists some constant $c(x) >…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and $n \geq r>0$ be integers, with $r$ even. Denote by $\mathrm{A}_n(\mathbb{F})$ the space of all $n$-by-$n$ alternating matrices with entries in $\mathbb{F}$. We consider the problem of determining the…

We look at a measure, $\lambda^\infty$, on the infinite-dimensional space, ${\mathbb R}^\infty$, for which we attempt to put forth an analogue of the Lebesgue density theorem. Although this measure allows us to find partial results, for…

We regard the classic Thue--Morse diffraction measure as an equilibrium measure for a potential function with a logarithmic singularity over the doubling map. Our focus is on unusually fast scaling of the Birkhoff sums (superlinear) and of…

An upper quasi-density on $\bf H$ (the integers or the non-negative integers) is a real-valued subadditive function $\mu^\ast$ defined on the whole power set of $\mathbf H$ such that $\mu^\ast(X) \le \mu^\ast({\bf H}) = 1$ and $\mu^\ast(k…

Combining the methods of Brian and Stuart with the classical Dvoretzky theorem, we show that no infinite-dimensional Banach space contains a barrelled subspace of (algebraic) dimension $<\mbox{cov}(\mathcal{N})$, the covering number of the…

We show that if a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ has Hausdorff dimension larger than $\frac{d}{2}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8d+4}$, where $d\geq 3$, then there is a point $x\in E$ such that the pinned distance set $\Delta_x(E)$ has positive…

Let $n, m$ be positive integers, $n\geq m$. We make several remarks on the relationship between approximate differentiability of higher order and Morse-Sard properties. For instance, among other things we show that if a function…

Zeckendorf's theorem states that every positive integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers ${F_n}$, with initial terms $F_1 = 1, F_2 = 2$. We consider the distribution of the number of summands involved in…

The diametral dimension, $\Delta(E)$, and the approximate diametral dimension, $\delta(E)$ of an element $E$ of a large class of nuclear Fr\'echet spaces are set theoretically between the corresponding invariant of power series spaces…

In the paper, new estimates of the Lebesgue constant $$ \mathcal{L}(W)=\frac1{(2\pi)^d}\int_{\mathbb{T}^d}\bigg|\sum_{{k}\in W\cap \mathbb{Z}^d} e^{i({k},\,{x})}\bigg| {\rm d}{ x} $$ for convex polyhedra $W\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ are obtained.…

We give a numerical characterization of mutual orthogonality (that is, complementarity) for subalgebras. In order to give such a characterization for mutually orthogonal subalgebras $A$ and $B$ of the $k \times k$ matrix algebra…

Let $\mathscr{H}^\infty$ be the set of all Dirichlet series $f=\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac{a_n}{n^s}$ (where $a_n\in \mathbb{C}$ for each $n$) that converge at each $s\in {\mathbb{C}}_+$, such that $\|f\|_{\infty}:=\sup_{s\in…

For any $\Lambda>0$, let $\mathcal{M}_{n,\Lambda}$ denote the space containing all locally Lipschitz minimal graphs of dimension $n$ and of arbitrary codimension $m$ in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+m}$ with uniformly bounded 2-dilation…

Let $f(n)$ count the number of subsets of $\{1,...,n\}$ without an element dividing another. In this paper I show that $f(n)$ grows like the $n$-th power of some real number, in the sense that $\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}f(n)^{1/n}$ exists.…
