Given a gamma population with known shape parameter $\alpha$, we develop a general theory for estimating a function $g(\cdot)$ of the scale parameter $\beta$ with bounded variance. We begin by defining a sequential sampling procedure with…

For any $\varepsilon > 0$ we derive effective estimates for the size of a non-zero integral point $m \in \mathbb{Z}^d \setminus \{0\}$ solving the Diophantine inequality $\lvert Q[m] \rvert < \varepsilon$, where $Q[m] = q_1 m_1^2 + \ldots +…

This paper presents a connection between Galois points and rational functions over a finite field with small value sets. This paper proves that the defining polynomial of any plane curve admitting two Galois points is an irreducible…

We present a non-standard proof of the fact that the existence of a local (i.e. restricted to a point) characteristic-zero, semi-parametric lifting for a variety defined by the zero locus of polynomial equations over the integers is…

The Riemann Xi-function Xi(t)=xi(1/2+it) is a particularly interesting member of a broad family of entire functions which can be expanded in terms of symmetrized Pochhammer polynomials depending on a certain scaling parameter beta. An…

Let $G$ be a group and let $X$ be a transitive $G$-space. We classify the subsets of $X$ with respect to a translation invariant ideal $\mathcal{J}$ in the Boolean algebra of all subsets of $X$, introduce and apply the relative…

Given $f\in \mathbb{Z}[t]$ of positive degree, we investigate the existence of auxiliary polynomials $g\in \mathbb{Z}[t]$ for which $f(g(t))$ factors as a product of polynomials of small relative degree. One consequence of this work shows…

We consider the problem of computing the minimum of a polynomial function g on a basic closed semialgebraic set E in R^n. We present a probabilistic symbolic algorithm to find a finite set of sample points of the subset E^{min} of E where…

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $F$ be a field containing a root of unity of order $p$. We prove that a certain very small canonical Galois group $(G_F)_{[3]}$ over $F$ encodes the valuations on $F$ whose value group is not $p$-divisible…

Consider a semi-algebraic set A in R^d constructed from the sets which are determined by inequalities p_i(x)>0, p_i(x)\ge 0, or p_i(x)=0 for a given list of polynomials p_1,...,p_m. We prove several statements that fit into the following…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of exponent $n$, written additively, and let $A$ be a subset of $\mathbb{Z}$. The constant $s_A(G)$ is defined as the smallest integer $\ell$ such that any sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has an…

Some properties that nominally involve the eigenvalues of Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) can instead be phrased in terms of singular values. By discarding the signs of the eigenvalues, we gain access to a surprising decomposition: the…

Let $X$ be an $N$-dimensional random vector which describes the ordered eigenvalues of a $\beta$-Hermite ensemble, and let $z$ the vector containing the ordered zeros of the Hermite poynomial $H_N$. We present an explicit estimate for…

We develop a method for determining the density of squarefree values taken by certain multivariate integer polynomials that are invariants for the action of an algebraic group on a vector space. The method is shown to apply to the…

The expansion of bivariate polynomials is well-understood for sets with a linear-sized product set. In contrast, not much is known for sets with small sumset. In this work, we provide expansion bounds for polynomials of the form $f(x, y) =…

We consider a minimal equicontinuous action of a finitely generated group $G$ on a Cantor set $X$ with invariant probability measure $\mu$, and stabilizers of points for such an action. We give sufficient conditions under which there exists…

Let $(G,+)$ be a finite abelian group. Then, $\so(G)$ and $\eta(G)$ denote the smallest integer $\ell$ such that each sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has a subsequence whose terms sum to $0$ and whose length is equal to and at…

For a bivariate $P(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]\setminus (\mathbb{R}[x] \cup \mathbb{R}[y])$, our first result shows that for all finite $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, $|P(A,A)|\geq \alpha|A|^{5/4}$ with $\alpha =\alpha(\mathrm{deg} P) \in…

We present short elementary proofs of the well-known Ruffini-Abel-Galois theorems on insolvability of algebraic equations in radicals. These proofs are obtained from existing expositions by stripping away material not required for the…

The goal of this note is to provide a general lower bound on the number of even values of the Fourier coefficients of an arbitrary eta-quotient $F$, over any arithmetic progression. Namely, if $g_{a,b}(x)$ denotes the number of even…
