Given a subset of real numbers $A$ with small product $AA$ we obtain a new upper bound for the additive energy of $A$. The proof uses a natural observation that level sets of convolutions of the characteristic function of $A$ have small…

We prove that if $A_0$ and $A_1$ are compact convex sets contained in a convex $n$-gon with vertices $g_1, \dots, g_n$, and $n$ is strictly greater than the number of common supporting lines of $A_0$ and $A_1$, then there exist $i \in…

We show that if $A=\{a_1 < a_2 < \ldots < a_k\}$ is a set of real numbers such that the differences of the consecutive elements are distinct, then for and finite $B \subset \mathbb{R}$, $$|A+B|\gg |A|^{1/2}|B|.$$ The bound is tight up to…

This paper generalizes the results of [13] and then provides an interesting example. We construct a family of $W$-like maps $\{W_a\}$ with a turning fixed point having slope $s_1$ on one side and $-s_2$ on the other. Each $W_a$ has an…

A random vector ${\bf X}$ is weakly stable iff for all $a,b\in \mathbb{R}$ there exists a random variable $\Theta$ such that $a{\bf X}+b{\bf X}'\stackrel{d}{=}{\bf X}\Theta$. This is equivalent (see \cite{MOU}) with the condition that for…

Let $p:\mathbb{C} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ be a polynomial. The Gauss-Lucas theorem states that its critical points, $p'(z) = 0$, are contained in the convex hull of its roots. We prove a stability version whose simplest form is as follows:…

The main results imply that the probability P(\ZZ\in A+\th) is Schur-concave/Schur-convex in (\th_1^2,\dots,\th_k^2) provided that the indicator function of a set A in \R^k is so, respectively; here, \th=(\th_1,\dots,\th_k) in \R^k and \ZZ…

We consider the Tur\'an-type problem of bounding the size of a set $M \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ that does not contain a linear copy of a given fixed set $N \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^k$, where $n$ is large compared to $k$. An Erd\H{o}s-Stone…

We say two $\delta$-tubes (dimension $\delta\times\cdots\times\delta\times1$) in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are essentially distinct if the measure of their intersection is smaller than a half of a single $\delta$-tube. For a collection of essentially…

Mahler's conjecture asks whether the cube is a minimizer for the volume product of a body and its polar in the class of symmetric convex bodies in R^n. The corresponding inequality to the conjecture is sometimes called the the reverse…

We consider a general relation between fixed point stability of suitably perturbed transfer operators and convergence to equilibrium (a notion which is strictly related to decay of correlations). We apply this relation to deterministic…

We study stable W-length in groups, especially for W equal to the n-fold commutator gamma_n:=[x_1,[x_2, . . . [x_{n-1},x_n]] . . . ]. We prove that in any perfect group, for any n at least 2 and any element g, the stable commutator length…

Suppose $M$ is a transitive class size model of $AD_{\mathbb{R}}+``\Theta$ is regular". $M$ is a minimal model of $AD_{\mathbb{R}}+``\Theta$ is measurable" if (i) $\mathbb{R}, Ord\subseteq M$ (ii) there is $\mu\in M$ such that $M\models…

The classical Steinhaus theorem (\cite{Steinhaus1920}) says that if $A \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ has positive Lebesgue measure than $A-A=\{x-y: x,y \in A\}$ contains an open ball. We obtain some quantitative lower bounds on the size of this ball…

We prove a new sum uncertainty relation in quantum theory which states that the uncertainty in the sum of two or more observables is always less than or equal to the sum of the uncertainties in corresponding observables. This shows that the…

This article describes a method to compute successive convex approximations of the convex hull of a set of points in R^n that are the solutions to a system of polynomial equations over the reals. The method relies on sums of squares of…

We say that a subset of C^n is hypoconvex if its complement is the union of complex hyperplanes. Let D be the closed unit disk in C, T the unit circle. We prove two conjectures of Helton and Marshall. (See ``Frequency domain design and…

A planar point set is in convex position precisely when it has a convex polygonization, that is, a polygonization with maximum interior angle measure at most \pi. We can thus talk about the convexity of a set of points in terms of the…

We show that there is an additive $F_\sigma$ subgroup $A$ of $\mathbb{R}$ and $x \in \mathbb{R}$ such that $\mathrm{dim_H} (A) = \frac{1}{2}$ and $A + x A =\mathbb{R}$. However, if $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is a subring of $\mathbb{R}$ and…

The Gaussian noise-stability of a set A in R^n is defined by S_rho(A) = P (X in A and Y in A) where X and Y are standard Gaussian vectors whose correlation is rho. Borell's inequality states that for all 0 < rho < 1, among all sets A with a…
