We prove that every indefinite quadratic form with non-negative integer coefficients is the volume polynomial of a pair of lattice polygons. This solves the discrete version of the Heine-Shephard problem for two bodies in the plane. As an…

The $c$-curvature of a complete surface with Gauss curvature close to 1 in $C^2$ norm is almost-positive (in the sense of Kim--McCann). Our proof goes by a careful case by case analysis combined with perturbation arguments from the constant…

The direct or algorithmic approach for the Jacobian problem, consisting of the direct construction of the inverse polynomials is proposed. The so called principle and derived Jacobi conditions are proposed and discussed. The algorithmic…

We obtain some sharp estimates for the $p$-torsion of convex planar domains in terms of their area, perimeter, and inradius. The approach we adopt relies on the use of web functions (i.e. functions depending only on the distance from the…

This paper establishes a sharp Schwarz-Pick type inequality for real-valued invariant harmonic functions defined on the complex unit ball $\mathbb B^n$. The proof of this main result simultaneously provides a solution to a natural extension…

We study the quantitative relationship between the cones of nonnegative polynomials, cones of sums of squares and cones of sums of powers of linear forms. We derive bounds on the volumes (raised to the power reciprocal to the ambient…

Alexopoulos proved that on a finitely generated virtually nilpotent group, the restriction of a harmonic function of polynomial growth to a torsion-free nilpotent subgroup of finite index is always a polynomial in the Mal'cev coordinates of…

In this paper, we proved that any 2-convex solution $u$ of $\sigma_2(D^2u)=1$ with a quadratic growth must be a quadratic polynomial in $\mathbb{R}^n\ (n\geq 3 )$ by using a Pogorelov estimate and the global gradient estimate. And we give a…

We prove an asymptotically sharp version of the Bourgain-Clozel-Kahane and Cohn-Gon\c{c}alves sign uncertainty principles for polynomials of sublinear degree times a Gaussian, as the dimension tends to infinity. In particular, we show that…

A tight map is a map with some of its vertices marked, such that every vertex of degree $1$ is marked. We give an explicit formula for the number $N_{0,n}(d_1,\ldots,d_n)$ of planar tight maps with $n$ labeled faces of prescribed degrees…

Serre obtained a sharp bound on how often two irreducible degree $n$ complex characters of a finite group can agree, which tells us how many local factors determine an Artin $L$-function. We consider the more delicate question of finding a…

Let C be a locally Cohen-Macaulay curve in complex projective 3-space. The maximum genus problem predicts the largest possible arithmetic genus g(d,s) that C can achieve assuming that it has degree d and does not lie on surfaces of degree…

We prove that the number of vertices of a polytope of a particular kind is exponentially large in the dimension of the polytope. As a corollary, we prove that an n-dimensional centrally symmetric polytope with O(n) facets has 2^{Omega(n)}…

We prove for all $k\geq 4$ and $1\leq\ell<k/2$ the sharp minimum $(k-2)$-degree bound for a $k$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal H$ on $n$ vertices to contain a Hamiltonian $\ell$-cycle if $k-\ell$ divides $n$ and $n$ is sufficiently large.…

In this paper we prove the Gromov--Milman conjecture (the Dvoretzky type theorem) for homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb R^n$, and improve bounds on the number $n(d,k)$ in the analogous conjecture for odd degrees $d$ (this case is known as…

In this note, we prove strong convergence of $q$-Gaussians with respect to a parameter $q$, which implies the spectrum of any self-adjoint non-commutative polynomial in $q$-Gaussians is continuously deformed with respect to $q$. With…

Let $M$ be a strictly convex smooth connected hypersurface in $\mathbb R^n$ and $\widehat{M}$ its convex hull. We say that $M$ is locally polynomially integrable if the $(n-1)-$ dimensional volumes of the sections of $\widehat M$ by…

We obtain the sharp estimates on the growth of the uniform norm of orthonormal polynomials for measures satisfying the Steklov condition. This improves the earlier results by Rakhmanov and completely settles a problem by Steklov. The sharp…

We observe that the strong slope conjecture implies that the degree of the colored Jones polynomial detects all torus knots. As an application we obtain that an adequate knot that has the same colored Jones polynomial degrees as a torus…

Real-stable, Lorentzian, and log-concave polynomials are well-studied classes of polynomials, and have been powerful tools in resolving several conjectures. We show that the problems of deciding whether a polynomial of fixed degree is real…
