In J. Stat. Phys. 115, 415-449 (2004) Brydges, Guadagni and Mitter proved the existence of multiscale expansions of a class of lattice Green's functions as sums of positive definite finite range functions (called fluctuation covariances).…

In a 1998 paper with H. Lakser, the authors proved that every finite distributive lattice $D$ can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite \emph{semimodular lattice}. Some ten years later, the first author and E. Knapp proved a…

We present a new formula for umbral operators that yields three main insights. First, it makes explicit a connection between umbral calculus and iteration theory. Second, it leads naturally to a definition of fractional exponents of umbral…

Clustering is a fundamental primitive in unsupervised learning which gives rise to a rich class of computationally-challenging inference tasks. In this work, we focus on the canonical task of clustering d-dimensional Gaussian mixtures with…

In a capacitated directed graph, it is known that the set of all min-cuts forms a distributive lattice [1], [2]. Here, we describe this lattice as a regular predicate whose forbidden elements can be advanced in constant parallel time after…

A two-dimensional Gauss-Kuzmin theorem for $N$-continued fraction expansions is shown. More exactly, we obtain a Gauss-Kuzmin theorem related to the natural extension of the measure-dynamical system corresponding to these expansions. Then,…

We develop novel techniques using abstract operator theory to obtain asymptotic formulae for lattice counting problems on infinite-volume hyperbolic manifolds, with error terms which are uniform as the lattice moves through "congruence"…

Recently, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer developed a new theory called Parametric Geometry of Numbers which approximates the behaviour of the successive minima of a family of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ related to the problem of…

A survey of recent progress in three areas of algebraic combinatorics: (1) the Saturation Conjecture for Littlewood-Richardson coefficients, (2) the n! and (n+1)^{n-1} conjectures, and (3) longest increasing subsequences of permutations.

We investigate the efficiency of several types of continued fraction expansions of a number in the unit interval using a generalization of Lochs theorem from 1964. Thus, we aimed to compare the efficiency by describing the rate at which the…

We give improved bounds for the equidistribution of (multiparameter) nilsequences subject to any degree filtration. The bounds we obtain are single exponential in dimension, improving on double exponential bounds of Green and Tao. To obtain…
