In an Euclidean $d$-space, the container problem asks to pack $n$ equally sized spheres into a minimal dilate of a fixed container. If the container is a smooth convex body and $d\geq 2$ we show that solutions to the container problem can…

We prove a sharp quantitative version of Hales' isoperimetric honeycomb theorem by exploiting a quantitative isoperimetric inequality for polygons and an improved convergence theorem for planar bubble clusters. Further applications include…

A paper on ordinal partitions by Erd\H{o}s and Milner (1972) has been formalised using the proof assistant Isabelle/HOL, augmented with a library for Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. The work is part of a project on formalising the partition…

Here we present a rigidity result in a global (semi-global, homotopy) setting for a restrictive class of polytopes, those that can be inscribed in a unit sphere, with some additional conditions. The proof of the rigidity result for cabled…

We prove that a set of density one satisfies the local-global conjecture for integral Apollonian gaskets. That is, for a fixed integral, primitive Apollonian gasket, almost every (in the sense of density) admissible (passing local…

We present a new proof of Witten's conjecture. The proof is based on the analysis of the relationship between intersection indices on moduli spaces of complex curves and Hurwitz numbers enumerating ramified coverings of the 2-sphere.

The purpose of this article is to present my new proof of the the construction and the convergence theorem of spectral sequences of filtered complexes, which is much shorter and cleaner than the "standard" proof.

We provide a simpler proof of the hard Lefschetz Theorem for face rings of PL spheres: While the algebraic theory remains the same, we replace the geometric constructions by Pachner's Theorem. This simplifies the reasoning for an important…

In this paper, we will answer one of the questions proposed by Bodur, Del~Pia, Dey, Molinaro and Pokutta in 2017. Specifically, we show that the k-aggregation closure of a covering set is a polyhedron. The proof technique is based on an…

We shed new light on Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in the sense of Beurling, by offering an essentially different proof which permits us to weaken the assumptions substantially, and examples show that the result is sharp. The proof…
