Let $g(x)$ be a fixed non-constant complex polynomial. It was conjectured by Schinzel that if $g(h(x))$ has boundedly many terms, then $h(x)\in \C[x]$ must also have boundedly many terms. Solving an older conjecture raised by R\'enyi and by…

Let $K$ be a compact set in $\mathbb{C}$, $f$ a function analytic in $\overline{\mathbb{C}}\smallsetminus K$ vanishing at $\infty $. Let $% f\left( z\right) =\sum_{k=0}^{\infty }a_{k}\ z^{-k-1}$ be its Taylor expansion at $\infty $, and…

Inspired by R. Speicher's multidimensional free central limit theorem and semicircle families, we prove an infinite dimensional compound Poisson limit theorem in free probability, and define infinite dimensional compound free Poisson…

We improve our previous result [L. Molinet and T. Tanaka, Unconditional well-posedness for some nonlinear periodic one-dimensional dispersive equations, J. Funct. Anal. 283 (2022), 109490] on the Cauchy problem for one dimensional…

Let $X$ be a random variable with finite second moment. We investigate the inequality: $P\{|X-E[X]|\le \sqrt{{\rm Var}(X)}\}\ge P\{|Z|\le 1\}$, where $Z$ is a standard normal random variable. We prove that this inequality holds for many…

Let $f$ be a polynomial of degree $d>1$ in $n$ variables over $\mathbb{Z}$. Let $f_d$ be the homogeneous part of degree $d$ of $f$ and $s$ be the dimension of the critical locus of $f_d$. In this paper, we prove Igusa's conjecture for…

A tantalizing open problem, posed independently by Stiebitz in 1995 and by Alon in 2006, asks whether for every pair of integers $s,t \ge 1$ there exists a finite number $F(s,t)$ such that the vertex set of every digraph of minimum…

The dual of an infinitely divisible distribution on $\mathbb{R}^d$ without Gaussian part defined in Sato, ALEA {\bf 3} (2007), 67--110, is renamed to the inversion. Properties and characterization of the inversion are given. A stochastic…

A remarkable conjecture of Feige (2006) asserts that for any collection of $n$ independent non-negative random variables $X_1, X_2, \dots, X_n$, each with expectation at most $1$, $$ \mathbb{P}(X < \mathbb{E}[X] + 1) \geq \frac{1}{e}, $$…

Given an entire function $f$ of finite order $\rho$, let $L(z,f)=\sum_{j=0}^{m}b_{j}(z)f^{(k_{j})}(z+c_{j})$ be a linear delay-differential polynomial of $f$ with small coefficients in the sense of $O(r^{\lambda+\varepsilon})+S(r,f)$,…

In 1956, 48 years after Hausdorff provided a comprehensive account on ordered sets and defined the notion of a scattered order, Erd\H{o}s and Rado founded the partition calculus in a seminal paper. The present paper gives an account of…

The goal of this paper is to attract attention of the reader to a dimension-free geometric inequality that can be proved using the classical needle decomposition. This inequality allows us to derive sharp dimension-free estimates for the…

We are concerned with the general problem of proving the existence of joint distributions of two discrete random variables $M$ and $N$ subject to infinitely many constraints of the form $\mathbb{P}\left(M=i,N=j\right)=0$. In particular, the…

We consider the infinite divisibility of distributions of some well-known inverse subordinators. Using a tail probability bound, we establish that distributions of many of the inverse subordinators used in the literature are not infinitely…

Stiefel manifolds arise naturally as spaces of injective operators and as total spaces of principal bundles over Grassmannians. While their finite-dimensional topology is governed by Bott periodicity, the infinite-dimensional theory…

Let $F\in \mathbb{K}[X, Y ]$ be a polynomial of total degree $D$ defined over a perfect field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic zero or greater than $D$. Assuming $F$ separable with respect to $Y$ , we provide an algorithm that computes the…

The paper aims at finding widely and smoothly defined nonparametric location and scatter functionals. As a convenient vehicle, maximum likelihood estimation of the location vector m and scatter matrix S of an elliptically symmetric t…

Kontsevich conjectured that $\text{BDiff}(M, \text{rel }\partial)$ has the homotopy type of a finite CW complex for all compact $3$-manifolds with non-empty boundary. Hatcher-McCullough proved this conjecture when $M$ is irreducible. We…

In 1964, Paul Erd\H{o}s published a paper settling a question about function spaces that he had seen in a problem book. Erd\H{o}s proved that the answer was yes if and only if the continuum hypothesis was false: an innocent-looking question…

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the characteristics of an infinitely divisible distribution under which its characteristic function $\phi$ decays polynomially. Under a mild regularity condition this polynomial decay is…
