A new observation of D in a primordial gas cloud, made using the high resolution spectrograph at the Keck telescope, indicates an abundance $ D/H =(1.9-2.5) \times 10^{-4}$ \cite{SCHR}. Since deuterium is destroyed by stars, and the…

An upperbound on the mass of the lightest neutral scalar Higgs boson is calculated in an extended version of the minimal supersymmetric standard model that contains an additional Higgs singlet. We integrate the renormalization group…

Various upper and lower bounds are provided for the (angular) Kronecker constants of sets of integers. Some examples are provided where the bounds are attained. It is proved that 5=16 bounds the angular Kronecker constants of 3-element sets…

We discuss the upper bound on the lightest CP-even Higgs boson mass in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model within the framework of a low energy renormalisation group analysis. We find $m_h$ < 146 GeV for $m_t$ = 90 GeV,…

Using a combination of renormalisation group and effective potential methods, we discuss the bound on the lightest CP-even Higgs boson mass $m_h$ in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model. We find $m_h\leq 146,139,149 \ GeV$ for…

Let $C$ be a binary code of length $n$ with distances $0<d_1<\cdots<d_s\le n$. In this note we prove a general upper bound on the size of $C$ without any restriction on the distances $d_i$. The bound is asymptotically optimal.

Constraints are presented on the total width of the recently discovered Higgs boson, Gamma[H], using its relative on-shell and off-shell production and decay rates to a pair of Z bosons, where one Z boson decays to an electron or muon pair,…

We obtain the bounds on all the gauge invariant, flavour symmetric, CP-even operators of dimension 6 that can affect the electroweak precision tests. For the preferred Higgs mass of about 100 GeV, their minimal scales range from 2 to 10…

We investigate the extremal properties of saturated partial plane embeddings of maximal planar graphs. For a planar graph $G$, the plane-saturation number $\mathrm{sat}_{\mathcal{P}}(G)$ denotes the minimum number of edges in a plane…

We obtain an upper bound for the number of pairs $ (a,b) \in {A\times B} $ such that $ a+b $ is a prime number, where $ A, B \subseteq \{1,...,N \}$ with $|A||B| \, \gg \frac{N^2}{(\log {N})^2}$, $\, N \geq 1$ an integer. This improves on a…

Let $H_n$ be the minimal number of smaller homothetic copies of an $n$-dimensional convex body required to cover the whole body. Equivalently, $H_n$ can be defined via illumination of the boundary of a convex body by external light sources.…

According to a classical result of Spencer, Szemer\'edi, and Trotter (1984), the maximum number of times the unit distance can occur among $n$ points in the plane is $O(n^{4/3})$. This is far from Erd\H{o}s's lower bound, $n^{1+O(1/\log\log…

We provide an improvement over Meshulam's bound on cap sets in $F_3^N$. We show that there exist universal $\epsilon>0$ and $C>0$ so that any cap set in $F_3^N$ has size at most $C {3^N \over N^{1+\epsilon}}$. We do this by obtaining quite…

Motivated by the recent discovery of a compact object with mass in the range $2.5{-}2.67\, \mathrm{M}_\odot$ in the binary merger GW190814, we revisit the question of the maximum mass of neutron stars (NSs). We use a Markov Chain Monte…

The maximum size of a binary code is studied as a function of its length N, minimum distance D, and minimum codeword weight W. This function B(N,D,W) is first characterized in terms of its exponential growth rate in the limit as N tends to…

The cycle set of a graph $G$ is the set consisting of all sizes of cycles in $G$. Answering a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Faudree, Verstra\"{e}te showed that there are at most $2^{n - n^{1/10}}$ different cycle sets of graphs with $n$…

Let $K = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. An $n$-element subset $A$ of $K$ is a $B_h$-set if every element of $K$ has at most one representation as the sum of $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. Associated to the $B_h$ set $A =…
