We determine the parameters of scaling relations analogous to the Fundamental Plane of elliptical galaxies for the bulges and disks of a sample of 40 spiral galaxies. To this end we derive structural parameters (scalelengths and surface…

We give asymptotic estimates for the number of non-overlapping homothetic copies of some centrally symmetric oval $B$ which have a common point with a 2-dimensional domain $F$ having rectifiable boundary, extending previous work of the…

A photometric method for quantifying deviations from axisymmetry in optical images of disk galaxies is applied to a sample of 32 face-on and nearly face-on spirals. The method involves comparing the relative fluxes contained within…

We study a lattice point counting problem for spheres arising from the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we prove an upper bound on the number of points on and near large dilates of the unit spheres generated by the anisotropic norms…

We exploit techniques from classical (real and complex) algebraic geometry for the study of the standard twistor fibration $\pi:\mathbb{CP}^{3}\to S^{4}$. We prove three results about the topology of the twistor discriminant locus of an…

In this paper we show that the diameter of a d-dimensional lattice polytope in [0,k]^n is at most (k - 1/2) d. This result implies that the diameter of a d-dimensional half-integral polytope is at most 3/2 d. We also show that for…

We examine a specific category of eigenfunctions of the lattice Laplacian on $\{p,q\}$-tessellations of the Poincar\'e disk that bear resemblance to plane waves in the continuum case. Our investigation reveals that the lattice eigenmodes…

I show that Tremaine-Weinberg (TW) measurements of bar pattern speeds are sensitive to errors in the position angle of the disc, PA_disc. I use an $N$-body experiment to measure these errors; for typical random PA_disc errors, the resulting…

We investigate the remainder in the asymptotic formula for the number of integer points in a family of bounded domains in the Euclidean space, which remain unchanged along some linear subspace and expand in the directions, orthogonal to…

Athreya, Bufetov, Eskin and Mirzakhani have shown the number of mapping class group lattice points intersecting a closed ball of radius $R$ in Teichm\"{u}ller space is asymptotic to $e^{hR}$, where $h$ is the dimension of the…

We compute the asymptotics of the number of integral quadratic forms with prescribed orthogonal decompositions and, more generally, the asymptotics of the number of lattice points lying in sectors of affine symmetric spaces. A new key…

Observations of the spatial distribution and kinematics of young stars in the Galactic centre can be interpreted as showing that the stars occupy one, or possibly two, discs of radii ~0.05-0.5 pc. The most prominent (`clockwise') disc…

Let $d \geq 0$ be an integer and let $P \subset \mathbb R^d$ be a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope. We call a polytope $M \subset \mathbb R^d$ such that $M \subset P$ and $M \sim P$ a {\itshape miniature} of $P,$ and it is said to be…

This paper concerns the number of lattice points in the plane which are visible along certain curves to all elements in some set S of lattice points simultaneously. By proposing the concept of level of visibility, we are able to analyze…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we show that infinitely often consecutive non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function differ by at least 2.7327 times the average spacing and infinitely often they differ by at most 0.5154 times the…

For a convex lattice polytope $P\subset \mathbb R^d$ of dimension $d$ with vertices in $\mathbb Z^d$, denote by $L(P)$ its discrete volume which is defined as the number of integer points inside $P$. The classical result due to Ehrhart says…

The concept of $t$-difference operator for functions of partitions is introduced to prove a generalization of Stanley's theorem on polynomiality of Plancherel averages of symmetric functions related to contents and hook lengths. Our…

In this paper we study the restriction estimate for the flat disk over finite fields. Mockenhaupt and Tao initially studied this problem but their results were addressed only for dimensions $n=4,6$. We improve and extend their results to…

Given a unimodular lattice $\Lambda\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ consider the counting function $\mathcal{N}_\Lambda(T)$ counting the number of lattice points of norm less than $T$, and the remainder $\mathcal{R}_\Lambda(T)=\mathcal{N}(T)-\pi…

Let $K \in \R^d$ be a convex body, and assume that $L$ is a randomly rotated and shifted integer lattice. Let $K_L$ be the convex hull of the (random) points $K \cap L$. The mean width $W(K_L)$ of $K_L$ is investigated. The asymptotic order…
