We show that if the upper Assouad dimension of the compact set $E\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is positive, then given any $D>\dim_{A}E$ there is a measure with support $E$ and upper Assouad (or regularity) dimension $D$. Similarly, given any…

We show that every infinite word $\omega$ on a finite subset of $\mathbb{Z}$ must contain arbitrarily large factors $B_1B_2$ which are "close" to being \textit{additive squares}. We also show that for all $k>1, \ \omega$ must contain a…

We prove that for every nonnegative integer $m$ there exists an $\varepsilon>0$ such that if $\lambda\in (0,\varepsilon]$ and $x$ is sufficiently large in terms of $m$, then the number of positive integers $n\leq x$ for which the interval…

Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group and $g \geq h \geq 2$ be integers. A set $A \subset \Gamma$ is a $C_h[g]$-set if given any set $X \subset \Gamma$ with $|X| = k$, and any set $\{ k_1 , \dots , k_g \} \subset \Gamma$, at least one of the…

Let G be an arbitrary Abelian group and let A be a finite subset of G. A has small additive doubling if |A+A| < K|A| for some K>0. These sets were studied in papers of G.A. Freiman, Y. Bilu, I. Ruzsa, M.C.--Chang, B. Green and T.Tao. In the…

We show that for every $0 < \epsilon \leq 1$ and integer $k\geq 1$, there exists an integer $n = n(\epsilon,k)$ so that for all primes $p$, and integers $0 \leq a \leq p-1$, there exist integers $1 \leq x_1 < ... < x_n \leq p^\epsilon$ such…

In this paper, we analyze the sum of squares hierarchy (SOS) on the ordering principle on $n$ elements. We prove that degree $O(\sqrt{n}log(n))$ SOS can prove the ordering principle. We then show that this upper bound is essentially tight…

We consider the complexity for computing the approximate sum $a_1+a_2+...+a_n$ of a sorted list of numbers $a_1\le a_2\le ...\le a_n$. We show an algorithm that computes an $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation for the sum of a sorted list of…

We prove the following higher-order Szego theorems: if a measure on the unit circle has absolutely continuous part $w(\theta)$ and Verblunsky coefficients $\alpha$ with square-summable variation, then for any positive integer $m$, $\int…

For arbitrary $c_0>0$, if $A$ is a subset of the primes less than $x$ with cardinality $\delta x (\log x)^{-1}$ with $\delta\geq (\log x)^{-c_0}$, then there exists a positive constant $c$ such that the cardinality of $A+A$ is larger than…

Let $M$ be a surface sum of 3-manifolds $M_1$ and $M_2$ along a bounded connected surface $F$ and $\partial_i$ be the component of $\partial M_i$ containing $F$. If $M_i$ has a high distance Heegaard splitting, then any minimal Heegaard…

The equivariant Gromov--Hausdorff convergence of metric spaces is studied. Where all isometry groups under consideration are compact Lie, it is shown that an upper bound on the dimension of the group guarantees that the convergence is by…

Fix positive reals $a,b,c,d$, and let $h(x)$ be a real function behaving sort of like $\sin x$ near 0. Then, provided $m$ grows linearly with $n$. there exists a positive constant $C$ such that$$…

We give a short proof that for a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ and continuous boundary data $g\in C(\partial\Omega)$ admitting a continuous finite-energy extension $\phi\in H^{1}(\Omega)\cap C(\bar\Omega)$, the minimizer of the…

Let $(a;q)_{\infty}$ be the $q$-Pochhammer symbol and $\mathrm{li}_2(x)$ be the dilogarithm function. Let $\prod_{\alpha,\beta,\gamma}$ be a finite product with every triple $(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)\in(\mathbb{R}_{>0})^3$ and…

The main result of this paper is that for any $1/2 \leq s < 2 - \sqrt{2} \approx 0.5858$, there is a number $\sigma = \sigma(s) < s$ with the following property. Let $\delta > 0$ be small, assume that $A \subset [0,1]$ is a…

As main result we prove strong convergence theorems for Ces\'aro means $% \left(C,\alpha \right) $ on the Hardy spaces $H_{1/\left(1+\alpha \right) } $% , where $0<\alpha <1.$

The sum of square roots is as follows: Given $x_1,\dots,x_n \in \mathbb{Z}$ and $a_1,\dots,a_n \in \mathbb{N}$ decide whether $ E=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i \sqrt{a_i} \geq 0$. It is a prominent open problem (Problem 33 of the Open Problems Project),…

A conjecture of Graham (repeated by Erd\H{o}s) asserts that for any set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p \setminus \{0\}$, there is an ordering $a_1, \ldots, a_{|A|}$ of the elements of $A$ such that the partial sums $a_1, a_1+a_2, \ldots,…

Given a finite abelian group $G$ and a subset $S\subseteq G$, we let $N_{G,\ S}$ be the smallest integer $N$ such that for any subset $A\subseteq G$ with $N$ elements, we have $g+S\subseteq A$ for some $g\in G$. Using the probabilistic…
