For any three element set of positive integers, $\{a,b,n\}$, with $a<b<n$, $n$ sufficiently large and $\gcd(a,b)=1$, we find the least $\alpha$ such that given any real numbers $t_1$, $t_2$, $t_3$, there is a real number $x$ such that…
We present three different upper bounds for Kronecker coefficients $g(\lambda,\mu,\nu)$ in terms of Kostka numbers, contingency tables and Littlewood--Richardson coefficients. We then give various examples, asymptotic applications, and…
An positive even number is said to be a Kronecker number if it can be written in infinitely many ways as the difference between two primes, and it is believed that all even numbers are Kronecker numbers. We will study the division and…
Starting with an infinite set of non linear Equations for the Li-Keiper coefficients, we first specify a lower bound emerging from the infinite set and give a characterization of it. Then, we propose a possible new upper and lower bound for…
This paper gives an heuristic lower bound for the number of integers connected to 1 and less than $x$, $\theta(x) > 0.9x,$ in the context of the $3n+1$ problem.
A neat 1972 result of Pohl asserts that [3n/2]-2 comparisons are sufficient, and also necessary in the worst case, for finding both the minimum and the maximum of an n-element totally ordered set. The set is accessed via an oracle for…
In this paper we present three different results dealing with the number of $(\leq k)$-facets of a set of points: 1. We give structural properties of sets in the plane that achieve the optimal lower bound $3\binom{k+2}{2}$ of $(\leq…
The three distance theorem (also known as the three gap theorem or Steinhaus problem) states that, for any given real number $\alpha$ and integer $N$, there are at most three values for the distances between consecutive elements of the…
The paper presents a lower bound for the number of negative eigenvalues of an integral operator with continuous kernel K lying below a nonpositive number t. The estimate is given in terms of some integrals of K.
Recently, generalizations of the classical Three Gap Theorem to higher dimensions attracted a lot of attention. In particular, upper bounds for the number of nearest neighbor distances have been established for the Euclidean and the maximum…
A lower bound is derived for the boundary entropy s = ln g of a 1+1d quantum critical system with boundary, under the conditions that the bulk conformal central charge c is >=1 and the most relevant bulk scaling dimension is >(c-1)/12. This…
We describe here, for the first time, a lower bound on the total number of fundamental constants required for a mathematical description of our physical universe to be complete. The answer is shown to be one. The formal arithmetized…
Recently, Gilmer proved the first constant lower bound for the union-closed sets conjecture via an information-theoretic argument. The heart of the argument is an entropic inequality involving the OR function of two i.i.d.\ binary vectors,…
We determine the border ranks of tensors that could potentially advance the known upper bound for the exponent $\omega$ of matrix multiplication. The Kronecker square of the small $q=2$ Coppersmith-Winograd tensor equals the $3\times 3$…
It is known that the Kronecker coefficient of three partitions is a bounded and weakly increasing sequence if one increases the first part of all three partitions. Furthermore if the first parts of partitions \lambda,\mu are big enough then…
We solve two long-standing open problems on word equations. Firstly, we prove that a one-variable word equation with constants has either at most three or an infinite number of solutions. The existence of such a bound had been conjectured,…
We establish new upper bounds for the length of runs of consecutive positive integers each with exactly $k$ divisors, where $k$ is a given positive integer of some special forms. Also we have found exact values of the maximum possible runs…
Let a tribonacci sequence be a sequence of integers satisfying $a_k=a_{k-1}+a_{k-2}+a_{k-3}$ for all $k\ge 4$. For any positive integers $k$ and $n$, denote by $f_k(n)$ the number of tribonacci sequences with $a_1, a_2, a_3>0$ and with…
Let $A^2(D)$ be the Bergman space over the open unit disk $D$ in the complex plane. Korenblum conjectured that there is an absolute constant $c \in (0,1)$ such that whenever $|f(z)|\le |g(z)|$ in the annulus $c<|z|<1$ then $||f(z)|| \le…
We show that the number of integer solutions for a pair of bilinear equations in at least 2*6 variables has (up to logarithms) the expected upper bound unless there is a structural reason why it is not the case.
