A general formulation is presented for continuum scaling limits of stochastic spanning trees. A spanning tree is expressed in this limit through a consistent collection of subtrees, which includes a tree for every finite set of endpoints in…

Following a result of D.~Bylik and M.T.~Lacey from 2008 it is known that there exists an absolute constant $\eta>0$ such that the (unnormalized) $L^{\infty}$-norm of the three-dimensional discrepancy function, i.e, the (unnormalized) star…

In this short note, we prove a version of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss flattening Lemma for point sets taking values in discrete subgroups. More precisely, given $d,\lambda_0,N_0\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\epsilon\in \left(0,\frac{1}{2}\right)$…

Let C_n be the origin-containing cluster in subcritical percolation on the lattice (1/n) Z^d, viewed as a random variable in the space Omega of compact, connected, origin-containing subsets of R^d, endowed with the Hausdorff metric delta.…

This paper proves a conjecture by Solomon about Steiner shallow-light trees (SLT) in Euclidean $d$-space: It is shown that for any finite point set $\mathbb{R}^d$, any root, and any $\epsilon>0$, there is a Euclidean Steiner…

In this paper, we improve the results in the author's previous paper \cite{Usu22}, which deals with the quantitative problem on Littlewood's conjecture. We show that, for any $0<\gamma<1$, any $(\alpha,\beta)\in\mathbb{R}^2$ except on a set…

For a family of interpolation norms $\| \cdot \|_{1,2,s}$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, we provide a distribution over random matrices $\Phi_s \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ parametrized by sparsity level $s$ such that for a fixed set $X$ of $K$ points…

We show that if $A\subset \{1,\ldots,N\}$ has no solutions to $a-b=n^2$ with $a,b\in A$ and $n\geq 1$ then \[|A|\ll \frac{N}{(\log N)^{c\log\log \log N}}\] for some absolute constant $c>0$. This improves upon a result of…

By discretizing an argument of Kislyakov, Naor and Schechtman proved that the 1-Wasserstein metric over the planar grid $\{0,1,\dots n\}^2$ has $L_1$-distortion bounded below by a constant multiple of $\sqrt{\log n}$. We provide a new…

We study the complexity of geometric problems on spaces of low fractal dimension. It was recently shown by [Sidiropoulos & Sridhar, SoCG 2017] that several problems admit improved solutions when the input is a pointset in Euclidean space…

We show that for every $\varepsilon>0$ there is an absolute constant $c(\varepsilon)>0$ such that the following is true. The union of any $n$ arithmetic progressions, each of length $n$, with pairwise distinct differences must consist of at…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a set of $n$ points in the Euclidean plane. We prove that, for any $\epsilon > 0$, either a single line or circle contains $n/2$ points of $\mathcal{P}$, or the number of distinct perpendicular bisectors determined by…

Let $(X,\left\Vert \cdot \right\Vert )$ be a real normed space of dimension $N\in \mathbb{N}$ with a basis $(e_{i})_{1}^{N}$ such that the norm is invariant under coordinate permutations. Assume for simplicity that the basis constant is at…

Given a non-principal Dirichlet character chi mod q, an important problem in number theory is to obtain good estimates for the size of L(1,chi). In this paper we focus on sharpening the upper bounds known for |L(1,chi)|; in particular, we…

We show that an infinite weighted tree admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into Hilbert space if and only if it does not contain arbitrarily large complete binary trees with uniformly bounded distortion. We also introduce a new metric invariant…

The metric sketching problem is defined as follows. Given a metric on $n$ points, and $\epsilon>0$, we wish to produce a small size data structure (sketch) that, given any pair of point indices, recovers the distance between the points up…

We show a distortion lower bound of $\Omega(\log(h)^{1/p})$ when embedding the countably branching hyperbolic tree of height $h$ into a Banach space with an equivalent norm satisfying Rolewicz property $(\beta)$ with modulus of power type…

We show that the alpha-weight of an MST over n points in a metric space with upper box dimension d has a bound independent of n if alpha is smaller than d and does not have one if alpha is larger than d.
