We prove an upper bound for the length of an arithmetic progression represented by an irreducible integral binary quadratic form or a norm form, which depends only on the form and the progression's common difference. For quadratic forms,…

We give an improved lower bound for the average of the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley function $\Delta(n)$, namely $\sum_{n\le x} \Delta(n) \gg_\varepsilon x(\log\log x)^{1+\eta-\varepsilon}$ for all $x\geqslant100$ and any fixed $\varepsilon$, where…

The present paper establishes upper and lower bounds on the speed of approximation in a wide range of natural Diophantine approximation problems. The upper and lower bounds coincide in many cases, giving rise to optimal results in…

We present an algorithm for solving the discrete logarithm problem in Jacobians of families of plane curves whose degrees in $X$ and $Y$ are low with respect to their genera. The finite base fields $\FF_q$ are arbitrary, but their sizes…

In this note, we extend the notion of minimal gaps to the higher dimensional sequences. We bound the minimal gap for $(\{\boldsymbol{a}_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\}),$ $(\{a_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\})$ and…

This paper focuses on the uniform boundary estimates in homogenization of a family of higher order elliptic operators $\mathcal{L}_\epsilon$, with rapidly oscillating periodic coefficients. We derive uniform boundary $C^{m-1,\lambda}…

Let $x,h$ and $Q$ be three parameters. We show that, for most moduli $q\le Q$ and for most positive real numbers $y\le x$, every reduced arithmetic progression $a\mod q$ has approximately the expected number of primes $p$ from the interval…

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…

Let F be a fixed finite field of characteristic at least 5. Let G = F^n be the n-dimensional vector space over F, and write N := |G|. We show that if A is a subset of G with size at least c_F N(log N)^{-c}, for some absolute constant c > 0…

Let $S$ be a subset of $\{1,\ldots,N\}$ avoiding the nontrivial progressions $x, x+y^2-1, x+ 2(y^2-1)$. We prove that $|S|\ll N/\log_m{N}$, where $\log_m $ is the $m$-fold iterated logarithm and $m\in\mathbf{N}$ is an absolute constant.…

This paper studies quantitative deviation bounds for statistical ensembles evolving under the one-parameter flow of a nearly integrable Hamiltonian system. Combining Nekhoroshev-type stability estimates with phase-mixing arguments, we…

We show that for all $A, B \subseteq \{0,1,2\}^{d}$ we have $$ |A+B|\geq (|A||B|)^{\log(5)/(2\log(3))}. $$ We also show that for all finite $A,B \subset \mathbb{Z}^{d}$, and any $V \subseteq\{0,1\}^{d}$ the inequality $$ |A+B+V|\geq…

The discrepancy of a binary string refers to the maximum (absolute) difference between the number of ones and the number of zeroes over all possible substrings of the given binary string. We provide an investigation of the discrepancy of…

We show that if A is a subset of {1,...,N} containing no non-trivial three-term arithmetic progressions then |A|=O(N/ log^{3/4-o(1)} N).

Let $n$ be a natural number. Recall that a C*-algebra is said to be $n$-subhomogeneous if all its irreducible representations have dimension at most $n$. In this short note, we give various approximation properties characterising…

It is known that $N(n)$, the maximum number of mutually orthogonal latin squares of order $n$, satisfies the lower bound $N(n) \ge n^{1/14.8}$ for large $n$. For $h\ge 2$, relatively little is known about the quantity $N(h^n)$, which…

For $\varepsilon\in(0,1/2)$ and a natural number $d\ge 2$, let $N$ be a natural number with \[ N \,\ge\, 2^9\,\log_2(d)\, \left(\frac{\log_2(1/\varepsilon)}{\varepsilon}\right)^2. \] We prove that there is a set of $N$ points in the unit…

We propose a method to impose homogeneous linear inequality constraints of the form $Ax\leq 0$ on neural network activations. The proposed method allows a data-driven training approach to be combined with modeling prior knowledge about the…

Let $M_n$ be the minimal position at generation $n$, of a real-valued branching random walk in the boundary case. As $n \to \infty$, $M_n- {3 \over 2} \log n$ is tight (see [1][9][2]). We establish here a law of iterated logarithm for the…
