Lattice rules are among the most prominently studied quasi-Monte Carlo methods to approximate multivariate integrals. A rank-1 lattice rule to approximate an $s$-dimensional integral is fully specified by its generating vector $\mathbf{z}…

Let $P$ be a partially ordered set. We prove that if $n$ is sufficiently large, then there exists a packing $\mathcal{P}$ of copies of $P$ in the Boolean lattice $(2^{[n]},\subset)$ that covers almost every element of $2^{[n]}$:…

We study the error of the number of points of a lattice $L$ that belong to a rectangle, centred at $0$, whose axes are parallel to the coordinate axes, dilated by a factor $t$ and then translated by a vector $X \in \mathbb{R}^{2}$. When we…

A discrete set $A$ in the Euclidian space is almost periodic if the measure with the unite masses at points of the set is almost periodic in the weak sense. We investigate properties of such sets in the case when $A-A$ is discrete. In…

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…

In a recent paper, Cristofaro-Gardiner--Li--Stanley [CGLS15] constructed examples of irrational triangles whose Ehrhart functions (i.e. lattice-point count) are polynomials when restricted to positive integer dilation factors. This is very…

In this paper we study the density of polynomials in some $L^2(M)$ spaces. Two choices of the measure $M$ and polynomials are considered: 1) a $(N\times N)$ matrix non-negative Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}$ and vector-valued polynomials…

We give explicit, polynomial-time computable formulas for the number of integer points in any two-dimensional rational polygon. A rational polygon is one whose vertices have rational coordinates. We find that the basic building blocks of…

This paper studies rational functions $\mathfrak{J}_\alpha(q)$, which depend on a positive element $\alpha$ of the root lattice of a root system. These functions arise as Shapovalov pairings of Whittaker vectors in Verma modules of highest…

Let f(z) be a rational function of degree at least 2 with coefficients in a number field K, and assume that the second iterate f^2(z) of f(z) is not a polynomial. The second author previously proved that for any b in K, the forward orbit…

Consider a lattice in a real finite dimensional vector space. Here, we are interested in the lattice polytopes, that is the convex hulls of finite subsets of the lattice. Consider the group $G$ of the affine real transformations which map…

Let $A$ be an $(m \times n)$ integral matrix, and let $P=\{ x : A x \leq b\}$ be an $n$-dimensional polytope. The width of $P$ is defined as $ w(P)=min\{ x\in \mathbb{Z}^n\setminus\{0\} :\: max_{x \in P} x^\top u - min_{x \in P} x^\top v…

An $n$-dimensional lattice polytope ${\mathcal Q}_\sigma$ can be associated to any composition $\sigma$ of a positive integer $n$, as a special case of constructions due to Pitman--Stanley and Chapoton. The entries of the $h$-vector of…

Minkowski's second theorem on successive minima asserts that the volume of a 0-symmetric convex body K over the covolume of a lattice \Lambda can be bounded above by a quantity involving all the successive minima of K with respect to…

We show how rational points on certain varieties parametrize phenomena arising in the Galois theory of iterates of quadratic polynomials. As an example, we characterize completely the set of quadratic polynomials $x^2+c$ whose third iterate…

We show that the multivariate generating function of appropriately normalized moments of a measure with homogeneous polynomial density supported on a compact polytope P in R^d is a rational function. Its denominator is the product of linear…

A mixed lattice vector space is a partially ordered vector space with two partial orderings, generalizing the notion of a Riesz space. Whereas the algebraic theory of mixed lattice structures dates back to the 1970s, the topological theory…
