We show that any subset of the natural numbers with positive logarithmic Banach density contains a set that is within a factor of two of a geometric progression, improving the bound on a previous result of the authors. Density conditions on…

In this paper we derive new upper bounds for the densities of measurable sets in R^n which avoid a finite set of prescribed distances. The new bounds come from the solution of a linear programming problem. We apply this method to obtain new…

Can one characterise the Fourier decay of a product measure in terms of the Fourier decay of its marginals? We make inroads on this question by describing the Fourier spectrum of a product measure in terms of the Fourier spectrum of its…

We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…

We introduce three measures of complexity for families of sets. Each of the three measures, that we call dimensions, is defined in terms of the minimal number of convex subfamilies that are needed for covering the given family: for upper…

On the sets of $2\pi$-periodic functions $f$, which are defined with a help of $(\psi, \beta)$-integrals of the functions $\varphi$ from $L_{1}$, we establish Lebesgue-type inequalities, in which the uniform norms of deviations of Fourier…

Fourier series approximations of continuous but nonperiodic functions on an interval suffer the Gibbs phenomenon, which means there is a permanent oscillatory overshoot in the neighbourhoods of the endpoints. Fourier extensions circumvent…

We study the upper tail of the number of arithmetic progressions of a given length in a random subset of {1,...,n}, establishing exponential bounds which are best possible up to constant factors in the exponent. The proof also extends to…

A $(d,k)$-set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ containing a $k$-dimensional unit ball of all possible orientations. Using an approach of D.~Oberlin we prove various Fourier dimension estimates for compact $(d,k)$-sets. Our main interest is in…

Consider a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ and a decomposition of its indicator function as the sum of two bounded functions $1_A=f_1+f_2$. For every family of linear forms, we find the smallest degree of uniformity $k$ such that assuming…

In metrics of spaces $L_{s}, \ 1\leq s\leq\infty$, we find asymptotic equalities for upper bounds of approximations by Fourier sums on classes of generalized Poisson integrals of periodic functions, which belong to unit ball of space…

We characterise those real analytic mappings between any pair of tori which carry absolutely convergent Fourier series to uniformly convergent Fourier series via composition. We do this with respect to rectangular summation. We also…

We revisit classic balancing problems for linear extensions of a partially ordered set $P$, proving results that go far beyond many of the best earlier results on this topic. For example, with $p(x\prec y)$ the probability that $x$ precedes…

We introduce an extension of the fellow traveler property which allows fellow travelers to be at distance bounded from above by a function $f(n)$ growing slower than any linear function. We study normal forms satisfying this extended fellow…

We study product sets of finite arithmetic progressions of polynomials over a finite field. We prove a lower bound for the size of the product set, uniform in a wide range of parameters. We apply our results to resolve the function field…

Different types of two- and three-dimensional representations of a finite metric space are studied that focus on the accurate representation of the linear order among the distances rather than their actual values. Lower and upper bounds for…

We develop a unified second-order parameterized complexity theory for spaces of integrable functions. This generalizes the well-established case of second-order parameterized complexity theory for spaces of continuous functions.…

We obtained order estimations for the best uniform approximations by trigonometric polynomials and approximations by Fourier sums of classes of $2\pi$-periodic continuous functions, which $(\psi,\beta)$-derivatives $f_{\beta}^{\psi}$ belong…

We study the $L^p$-convergence of Fourier expansions in terms of non-symmetric Heckman-Opdam polynomials of type $A_1$. Using kernel estimates and duality arguments, we prove that the partial sums converge in $ L^p([-\pi,\pi],dm_k)$ for…

Given a compact set of real numbers, a random $C^{m + \alpha}$-diffeomorphism is constructed such that the image of any measure concentrated on the set and satisfying a certain condition involving a real number $s$, almost surely has…
