We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems include submodular load balancing, which generalizes load…
Submodular optimization plays a key role in many real-world problems. In many real-world scenarios, it is also necessary to handle uncertainty, and potentially disruptive events that violate constraints in stochastic settings need to be…
In this paper, we obtain upper bounds on the multiplicity of Laplacian eigenvalues for closed hyperbolic surfaces in terms of the number of short closed geodesics and the genus $g$. For example, we show that if the number of short closed…
We prove that the sublinearly Morse boundary of every known cubulated group continuously injects in the Gromov boundary of a certain hyperbolic graph. We also show that for all CAT(0) cube complexes, convergence to sublinearly Morse…
We interpret the degrees which arise in Tevelev's study of scattering amplitudes in terms of moduli spaces of Hurwitz covers. Via excess intersection theory, the boundary geometry of the Hurwitz moduli space yields a simple recursion for…
In this paper, given a simple linear recurrence sequence of algebraic numbers, which has either a dominant characteristic root or exactly two characteristic roots of maximal modulus, we give some explicit lower bounds for the index beyond…
This thesis is a study of large sets of unit vectors in $\cx^n$ such that the absolute value of their standard inner products takes on only a small number of values. We begin with bounds: what is the maximal size of a set of lines with only…
We study the structure of certain modules $V$ over linear spaces $W$ with restrictions neither on the dimensions nor on the base field $\mathbb F$. A basis $\mathfrak B = \{v_i\}_{i\in I}$ of $V$ is called multiplicative respect to the…
We obtain a lower bound for \[ \#\{x/2< p_{n}\leq x:\ p_n \equiv\ldots\equiv p_{n+m}\equiv a\text{ (mod $q$)},\ p_{n+m} - p_{n}\leq y\}, \] where $p_{n}$ is the $n^{\text{th}}$ prime.
We collect some results in combinatorial geometry that follow from an inequality of Langer in algebraic geometry. Langer's inequality gives a lower bound on the number of incidences between a point set and its spanned lines, and was…
We consider a non-polynomial cubic spline to develop the classes of methods for the numerical solution of singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems. The proposed methods are second and fourth order accurate and applicable to…
Minimal linear codes are in one-to-one correspondence with special types of blocking sets of projective spaces over a finite field, which are called strong or cutting blocking sets. In this paper we prove an upper bound on the minimal…
Under the generalized Lindel\"{o}f hypothesis, the exponent in the error term of the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface is reduced to $\frac{5}{8}+\varepsilon $ outside a set of finite logarithmic measure.
For a newform $f=\sum a_n q^n$ of weight $k \geq 3$ and a prime $\lambda$ of $\mathbf{Q}(a_n)$, the deformation problem for its associated mod $\lambda$ Galois representation is unobstructed for all primes outside some finite set. Previous…
The aim of this paper is to give upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian fields of odd prime conductor. In particular, these bounds imply Minkowski's conjecture for totally real number fields of conductor p^r, where p is an odd…
Let M_0^R be the moduli space of smooth real cubic surfaces. We show that each of its components admits a real hyperbolic structure. More precisely, one can remove some lower-dimensional geodesic subspaces from a real hyperbolic space H^4…
In this paper, the boundedness of some sublinear operators is proved on homogeneous Herz-Morrey spaces with variable exponent.
For a fixed singular modulus $\alpha$, we give an effective lower bound of norm of $x-\alpha$ for another singular modulus $x$ with large discriminant. We then generalize this result for $\Phi_m(x,\alpha)$, where $\Phi_m(X,Y) \in \Z[X,Y]$…
Given integers $a$ and $m\ge 2$, let $\Hm$ be the following set of integral points $$ \Hm= \{(x,y) \ : \ xy \equiv a \pmod m,\ 1\le x,y \le m-1\} $$ We improve several previously known upper bounds on $v_a(m)$, the number of vertices of the…
The theory of Frobenius groups with Frobenius complements of even order largely reduces to tractable algebraic number theory. If we consider only Frobenius complements with an upper bound $s$ on the number of distinct primes dividing the…
