Using the Calder\'on-Zygmund decomposition, we give a novel and simple proof that $L^2$ bounded dyadic shifts admit a domination by positive sparse forms with linear growth in the complexity of the shift. Our estimate, coupled with…
The Cabling Conjecture of Gonz\'alez-Acu\~na and Short holds that only cable knots admit Dehn surgery to a manifold containing an essential sphere. We approach this conjecture for thin knots using Heegaard Floer homology, primarily via…
We present an explicit integration formula for the Haar integral on a compact connected Lie group. This formula relies on a known decomposition of a compact connected simple Lie group into symplectic leaves, when one views the group as a…
This paper first defines operators that are "well-localized" with respect to a pair of accretive functions and establishes a global two-weight Tb theorem for such operators. Then it defines operators that are "well-localized" with respect…
A famous conjecture of Hopf is that the product of the two-dimensional sphere with itself does not admit a Riemannian metric with positive sectional curvature. More generally, one may conjecture that this holds for any nontrivial product.…
We formulate a precise conjecture that, if true, extends the converse theorem of Hecke without requiring hypotheses on twists by Dirichlet characters or an Euler product. The main idea is to linearize the Euler product, replacing it by…
Using a result from ergodic Ramsey theory, we answer a question posed by B\`es, Martin, Peris and Shkarin by showing a mixing operator $T$ on a Hilbert space such that the tuple $(T, T^2)$ is not disjoint transitive.
We prove a conjecture by Shannon Starr regarding the asymptotics for the number of tuples of commuting permutations with given number of joint orbits. These numbers generalize unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind which count how many…
Let $R_s M$ denote the Singer construction on an unstable module $M$ over the Steenrod algebra $A$ at the prime two; $R_s M$ is canonically a subobject of $P_s\otimes M$, where $P_s$ is the polynomial algebra on s generators of degree one.…
We consider weights $w$ and their cut-offs: $w_a(t)=w(t)$ if $w(t)\le a$ and $w_a(t)=a$ if $w(t)> a$. We consider a generalized $A_p$-``norm'' and prove that the ``norm'' of $w_a$ is not greater then the ``norm'' of $w$. Our proof in the…
We prove that an injective, not necessarily bounded weighted bilateral shift operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ is similar to a normal operator if and only if it is similar to a scalar multiple of the simple (i.e. unweighted) bilateral shift…
Let $\g$ be any simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. Recall that there exists an embedding of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ into $\g$, called a principal TDS, passing through a principal nilpotent element of $\g$ and uniquely determined up to…
We prove the Aharoni Berger Conjecture
We prove a conjecture by Guo-Niu Han which interpolates between two known hook expansion formulas.
We present a conjecture about the asymptotic representation of certain series. The conjecture implies the Riemann hypothesis and it would also indicate the simplicity of the non-trivial zeros of the zeta-function.
We prove an abstract theorem of maximal hypoellipticy showing that in an abstract calculus under some natural assumptions, an operator is maximally hypoelliptic if and only if its principal symbol is left invertible. We then show that our…
We reduce the Mathieu conjecture for $SU(2)$ to a conjecture about moments of Laurent polynomials in two variables with single variable polynomial coefficients.
Consider a Hilbert space obtained as the completion of the polynomials C[z} in m-variables for which the mnonomials are orthogonal. If the commuting weighted shifts defined by the coordinate functions are essentially normal, then the same…
