We provide an upper bound on the number of neurons required in a shallow neural network to approximate a continuous function on a compact set with a given accuracy. This method, inspired by a specific proof of the Stone-Weierstrass theorem,…

Recently, Dvir, Golovnev, and Weinstein have shown that sufficiently strong lower bounds for linear data structures would imply new bounds for rigid matrices. However, their result utilizes an algorithm that requires an $NP$ oracle, and…

The class of the fine moduli space of stable $n$-pointed curves of genus zero, $\overline{\mathcal{M}_{0,n}}$, in the Grothendieck ring of varieties encodes its Poincar\'e polynomial. Aluffi-Chen-Marcolli conjecture that the Grothendieck…

Let lambda_s(n) denote the maximum length of a Davenport-Schinzel sequence of order s on n symbols. For s=3 it is known that lambda_3(n) = Theta(n alpha(n)) (Hart and Sharir, 1986). For general s>=4 there are almost-tight upper and lower…

We introduce a new technique proving formula size lower bounds based on the linear programming bound originally introduced by Karchmer, Kushilevitz and Nisan [11] and the theory of stable set polytope. We apply it to majority functions and…

In this paper we improve the upper bound of the number $N_{K, n}(X)$ of degree $n$ extensions of a number field $K$ with absolute discriminant bounded by $X$. This is achieved by giving a short $\mathcal{O}_K$-basis of an order of an…

The Heilbronn triangle problem asks for the placement of $n$ points in a unit square that maximizes the smallest area of a triangle formed by any three of those points. In $1972$, Schmidt considered a natural generalization of this problem.…

To determine the dimension of null space of any given linearized polynomial is one of vital problems in finite field theory, with concern to design of modern symmetric cryptosystems. But, the known general theory for this task is much far…
