We find nearly the optimal size of a set $A\subset [N] := \{1,...,N\}$ so that the product set $AA$ satisfies either (i) $|AA| \sim |A|^2/2$ or (ii) $|AA| \sim |[N][N]|$. This settles problems raised in a recent article of Cilleruelo,…

We investigate Baire classes of strongly affine mappings with values in Fr\'echet spaces. We show, in particular, that the validity of the vector-valued Mokobodzki's result on affine functions of the first Baire class is related to the…

Let $a_{i1}x_1+\cdots+a_{ik}x_k=0$, $i\in[m]$ be a balanced homogeneous system of linear equations with coefficients $a_{ij}$ from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We say that a solution $x=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ with $x_1,\ldots, x_k\in…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $V/\mathbb{F}_p$ be an absolutely irreducible affine variety inside the affine $r$-space. In this paper, we consider the problem of how often a box $B$ will contain the expected number of points. In particular, we…

This note is motivated by the article of Bamerni, Kadets and Kili\c{c}man [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 435 (2), 1812--1815 (2016)]. We consider the remaining problem which claims that if $A$ is a dense subset of a finite dimensional space $X$,…

In this article, we prove a lower bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the set of exactly $\psi$-approximable vectors with values in a local field of positive characteristic. This is the analogue of the corresponding theorem of Bandi and de…

We present a construction of non-rectifiable, repetitive Delone sets in every Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 2$. We further obtain a close to optimal repetitivity function for such sets. The proof is based on the process of…

In this paper, we establish improved effective irrationality measures for certain numbers of the form $\sqrt[3]{n}$, using approximations obtained from hypergeometric functions. These results are very close to the best possible using this…

We prove a Khintchine type theorem for approximation of elements in the Cantor set, as a subset of the formal Laurent series over $\mathbb{F}_3$, by rational functions of a specific type. Furthermore we construct elements in the Cantor set…

This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…

Let k be an algebraically closed field complete with respect to a non-Archimedean absolute value of arbitrary characteristic. Let D_1,...,D_n be effective nef divisors intersecting transversally in an n-dimensional nonsingular projective…

In this paper, we consider the following problem: what is the minimum number of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$, such that all the vertices of $\{0, 1\}^n \setminus \{\vec{0}\}$ are covered at least $k$ times, and $\vec{0}$ is…

Let $\{a_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, $\{b_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be two infinite subsets of positive integers and $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{R}_{>0}$ be a positive function. We completely determine the Hausdorff dimensions of the set of all…

The main result states that every convex set-valued function defined on a real interval with compact values in a locally convex space, admits an affine selection. In the case if the target space is a real line and the values are closed real…

We introduce the notion of weighted singular vectors and weighted uniform exponent with respect to a set of weights. We prove invariance of these exponents for affine subspaces and submanifolds inside those affine subspaces. For certain…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…

We establish a link between abelian regular subgroup of the affine group, and commutative, associative algebra structures on the underlying vector space that are (Jacobson) radical rings. As an application, we show that if the underlying…

Let A be an n by m matrix with real entries. Consider the set Bad_A of x \in [0,1)^n for which there exists a constant c(x)>0 such that for any q \in Z^m the distance between x and the point {Aq} is at least c(x) |q|^{-m/n}. It is shown…

There exists a function f: N -> N such that for every positive integer d, every quasi-finite field K and every projective hypersurface X of degree d and dimension at least f(d), the set X(K) is non-empty. This is a special case of a more…
