For a given real number $a$ we define the sequence $\{E_{n,a}\}$ by $E_{0,a}=1$ and $E_{n,a}=-a\sum_{k=1}^{[n/2]} \binom n{2k}E_{n-2k,a}$ $(n\ge 1)$, where $[x]$ is the greatest integer not exceeding $x$. Since $E_{n,1}=E_n$ is the n-th…
We study the quantity $$ \tau_{n,k}:=\frac{|T_n^{(k)}(\omega_{n,k})|}{T_n^{(k)}(1)}\,, $$ where $T_n$ is the Chebyshev polynomial of degree $n$, and $\omega_{n,k}$ is the rightmost zero of $T_n^{(k+1)}$. Since the absolute values of the…
The following generalisation of the Erd\H{o}s unit distance problem was recently suggested by Palsson, Senger and Sheffer. Given $k$ positive real numbers $\delta_1,\dots,\delta_k$, a $(k+1)$-tuple $(p_1,\dots,p_{k+1})$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is…
For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\delta_1(H)$ denote the minimum vertex degree of $H$, and $\nu(H)$ denote the size of the largest matching in $H$. In this paper, we show that for any $k\geq 3$ and $\beta>0$, there exists an integer…
Recently, Yanyan Li and Xukai Yan showed the following interesting Hardy inequalities with anisotropic weights: Let $n\geq 2$, $p \geq 1$, $p\alpha > 1-n$, $p(\alpha + \beta)> -n$, then there exists $C > 0$ such that…
We study the problem of estimating the trace of a matrix $\mathbf{A}$ that can only be accessed through Kronecker-matrix-vector products. That is, for any Kronecker-structured vector $\mathrm{x} = \otimes_{i=1}^k \mathrm{x}_i$, we can…
We prove a sharp stability result for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for $A,B\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. Assuming that the Brunn-Minkowski deficit $\delta=|A+B|^{\frac{1}{2}}/(|A|^\frac12+|B|^\frac12)-1$ is sufficiently small in terms of…
As it follows from the theory of almost periodic functions the set of integer solutions $q$ to the Kronecker system $|\omega_{j} q - \theta_{j}| < \varepsilon \pmod 1$, $j=1,\ldots,m$, where $1,\omega_{1},\ldots,\omega_{m}$ are linearly…
In this short note, we reformulate the task of calculating the pair correlation statistics of a Kronecker sequence as a lattice point counting problem. This can be done analogously to the lattice based approach which was used to (re-)prove…
One way to study the Kronecker coefficients is to focus on the Kronecker cone, which is generated by the triples of partitions corresponding to non-zero Kronecker coefficients. In this article we are interested in producing particular faces…
Let $u_k$ be a solution of the Helmholtz equation with the wave number $k$, $\Delta u_k+k^2 u_k=0$, on a small ball in either $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathbb{S}^n$, or $\mathbb{H}^n$. For a fixed point $p$, we define $M_{u_k}(r)=\max_{d(x,p)\le…
For a positive integer $m>1$, if the generalized Markoff equation $a^2+b^2+c^2=3abc+m$ has a solution triple, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show that all positive solution triples are generated by a finite set of triples that we…
Let $\Gamma_{\beta,N}$ be the $N$-part homogeneous Cantor set with $\beta\in(1/(2N-1),1/N)$. Any string $(j_\ell)_{\ell=1}^\N$ with $j_\ell\in\{0,\pm 1,...,\pm(N-1)\}$ such that $t=\sum_{\ell=1}^\N j_\ell\beta^{\ell-1}(1-\beta)/(N-1)$ is…
We show that given $\alpha \in (0, 1)$ there is a constant $c=c(\alpha) > 0$ such that any planar $(\alpha, 2\alpha)$-Furstenberg set has Hausdorff dimension at least $2\alpha + c$. This improves several previous bounds, in particular…
In 1947 Mills proved that there exists a constant $A$ such that $\lfloor A^{3^n} \rfloor$ is a prime for every positive integer $n$. Determining $A$ requires determining an effective Hoheisel type result on the primes in short intervals -…
We study the validity of congruence inclusions of the form $ \alpha ( \beta \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \beta \circ \dotsc \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \beta ) \subseteq \alpha \beta \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \alpha \beta \circ \dots$ in…
We prove that at least one of the six numbers $\beta(2i)$ for $i=1,\dots,6$ is irrational. Here $\beta(s)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty(-1)^k(2k+1)^{-s}$ denotes Dirichlet's beta function, so that $\beta(2)$ is Catalan's constant.
It is conjectured that for any fixed relatively prime positive integers $a,b$ and $c$ all greater than 1 there is at most one solution to the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ in positive integers $x,y$ and $z$, except for specific cases. We develop…
In this paper we evaluate some Toeplitz-type determinants. Let $n>1$ be an integer. We prove the following two basic identities: \begin{align*} \det{[j-k+\delta_{jk}]_{1\leq j,k\leq n}}&=1+\frac{n^2(n^2-1)}{12}, \\…
We study polynomial SL-invariants of tensors, mainly focusing on fundamental invariants which are of smallest degrees. In particular, we prove that certain 3-dimensional analogue of the Alon--Tarsi conjecture on Latin cubes considered…
