We prove a size-sensitive version of Haussler's Packing lemma~\cite{Haussler92spherepacking} for set-systems with bounded primal shatter dimension, which have an additional {\em size-sensitive property}. This answers a question asked by…

Shepard's Universal Law of Generalization offered a compelling case for the first physics-like law in cognitive science that should hold for all intelligent agents in the universe. Shepard's account is based on a rational Bayesian model of…

Rademacher complexity is often used to characterize the learnability of a hypothesis class and is known to be related to the class size. We leverage this observation and introduce a new technique for estimating the size of an arbitrary…

We prove via a composition lemma, the Kotzig-Ringel-Rosa conjecture, better known as the Graceful Labeling Conjecture. We also prove via a stronger version of the composition lemma a stronger form of the Graceful Labeling Conjecture.

We study the structure of sets $S\subseteq\{0, 1\}^n$ with small sensitivity. The well-known Simon's lemma says that any $S\subseteq\{0, 1\}^n$ of sensitivity $s$ must be of size at least $2^{n-s}$. This result has been useful for proving…

Using probabilistic ideas, we prove that the packing dimension of a mean porous measure is strictly smaller than the dimension of the ambient space. Moreover, we give an explicit bound for the packing dimension, which is asymptotically…

We refine the bound on the packing number, originally shown by Haussler, for shallow geometric set systems. Specifically, let $\V$ be a finite set system defined over an $n$-point set $X$; we view $\V$ as a set of indicator vectors over the…

We analyze the large scale structure and fluctuations of jammed packings of size disperse spheres, produced in a granular experiment as well as numerically. While the structure factor of the packings reveals no unusual behavior for small…

We develop a constant-tracking likelihood theory for two nonregular models: the folded normal and finite Gaussian mixtures. For the folded normal, we prove boundary coercivity for the profiled likelihood, show that the profile path of the…

The Discrete Schwarz-Pick Lemma is a discrete analogue of the classical result from complex analysis, arising from the connection between circle packings and conformal maps established by Thurston. Previous works by Beardon-Stephanson and…

Let a planar residual set be a set obtained by removing countably many disjoint topological disks from an open set in the plane. We prove that the residual set of a planar packing by curves that satisfy a certain lower curvature bound has…

The aim of this note is to overview some of our work in Chernikov, Towsner'20 (arXiv:2010.00726) developing higher arity VC theory (VC$_n$ dimension), including a generalization of Haussler packing lemma, and an associated tame (slice-wise)…

We prove that, for every polyhedral or $C^1$ norm on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and every set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ of packing dimension $s$, the packing dimension of the distance set of $E$ with respect to that norm is at least $\tfrac{s}{d}$.…

The explanations of large language models have recently been shown to be sensitive to the randomness used for their training, creating a need to characterize this sensitivity. In this paper, we propose a characterization that questions the…
