One of the major open problems in complexity theory is to demonstrate an explicit function which requires super logarithmic depth, a.k.a, the $\mathbf{P}$ versus $\mathbf{NC^1}$ problem. The current best depth lower bound is $(3-o(1))\cdot…

A function $f: \mathbb{F}_2^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ is triangle-free if there are no $x_1,x_2,x_3 \in \mathbb{F}_2^n$ satisfying $x_1+x_2+x_3=0$ and $f(x_1)=f(x_2)=f(x_3)=1$. In testing triangle-freeness, the goal is to distinguish with high…

We build upon a recent theoretical breakthrough by employing novel algorithms to accurately compute the fractions $F_p$ of all closed walks on the infinite square lattice whose the last erased loop corresponds is any one of the $762, 207,…

We prove new lower bounds on the maximum size of subsets $A\subseteq \{1,\dots,N\}$ or $A\subseteq \mathbb{F}_p^n$ not containing three-term arithmetic progressions. In the setting of $\{1,\dots,N\}$, this is the first improvement upon a…

Let $\Delta=\Delta(a,b,c)$ be a hyperbolic triangle group, a Fuchsian group obtained from reflections in the sides of a triangle with angles $\pi/a,\pi/b,\pi/c$ drawn on the hyperbolic plane. We define the arithmetic dimension of $\Delta$…

Let $P$ be a finite point set in the plane. A \emph{$c$-ordinary triangle} in $P$ is a subset of $P$ consisting of three non-collinear points such that each of the three lines determined by the three points contains at most $c$ points of…

Let $G$ be an abelian group of bounded exponent and $A \subseteq G$. We show that if the collection of translates of $A$ has VC dimension at most $d$, then for every $\epsilon>0$ there is a subgroup $H$ of $G$ of index at most…

This paper shows that the $\mathrm{VC}_2$-dimension of a subset of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ known as the 'quadratic Green-Sanders example' is at least 3 and at most 501. The upper bound confirms a conjecture of Terry and Wolf, who introduced this…

We count algebraic points of bounded height and degree on the graphs of certain functions analytic on the unit disk, obtaining a bound which is polynomial in the degree and in the logarithm of the multiplicative height. We combine this work…

In this short note, we give a lower bound on the number of congruence classes of triangles in a small set of points in $\mathbb{F}_p^2$. More precisely, for $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathbb{F}_p^2$ with $|\mathcal{A}|\le p^{2/3}$, we prove that…

Let $P$ be a finite set of points in the plane. A c-ordinary triangle is a set of three non-collinear points of $P$ such that each line spanned by the points contains at most $c$ points of $P$. We show that if $P$ is not contained in the…

Recently, cutting planes derived from maximal lattice-free convex sets have been studied intensively by the integer programming community. An important question in this research area has been to decide whether the closures associated with…

Tensors decompositions are a class of tools for analysing datasets of high dimensionality and variety in a natural manner, with the Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) being a main pillar. While the notion of CPD is closely intertwined…

Let $\Omega$ be an open convex set in ${\mathbb R}^m$ with finite width, and let $v_{\Omega}$ be the torsion function for $\Omega$, i.e. the solution of $-\Delta v=1, v\in H_0^1(\Omega)$. An upper bound is obtained for the product of $\Vert…

We prove that the stack-number of the strong product of three $n$-vertex paths is $\Theta(n^{1/3})$. The best previously known upper bound was $O(n)$. No non-trivial lower bound was known. This is the first explicit example of a graph…

Our contribution is a bounded cubic compilation theorem. For each fixed resource parameter $k$, syntactic proof checking at resource level $k$ is faithfully represented by a finite bounded-domain system of cubic polynomial equations. Every…

In [3] L.Zapponi studied the arithmetic of plane bipartite trees with prime number of edges. He obtained a lower bound on the degree of tree's definition field. Here we obtain a similar lower bound in the following case. There exists a…

Green and Sisask showed that the maximal number of $3$-term arithmetic progressions in $n$-element sets of integers is $\lceil n^2/2\rceil$; it is easy to see that the same holds if the set of integers is replaced by the real line or by any…

In its Euclidean form, the Dense Neighborhood Lemma (DNL) asserts that if $V$ is a finite set of points of $\mathbb{R}^N$ such that for each $v \in V$ the ball $B(v,1)$ intersects $V$ on at least $\delta |V|$ points, then for every…

Let $N$ be an odd perfect number and let $a$ be its third largest prime divisor, $b$ be the second largest prime divisor, and $c$ be its largest prime divisor. We discuss steps towards obtaining a non-trivial upper bound on $a$, as well as…
