We consider the problem of approximating numerically the moments and the supports of measures which are invariant with respect to the dynamics of continuous- and discrete-time polynomial systems, under semialgebraic set constraints. First,…

For a positive integer $m$ and a real number $c$, let $R = R(m,c,2)$ denote the discrete 2-color Rado number for the equation $x_1 + x_2 + \dots + x_m + c = 2x_0$. In other words, $R$ is the smallest integer such that for any coloring of…

The moment-SOS hierarchy is a widely applicable framework to address polynomial optimization problems over basic semi-algebraic sets based on positivity certificates of polynomial. Recent works show that the convergence rate of this…

Let At denote the set of infinite sequences of effective dimension t. We determine both how close and how far an infinite sequence of dimension s can be from one of dimension t, measured using the Besicovitch pseudometric. We also identify…

For the truncated moment problem associated to a complex sequence $\gamma ^{(2n)}=\{\gamma _{ij}\}_{i,j\in Z_{+},i+j \leq 2n}$ to have a representing measure $\mu $, it is necessary for the moment matrix $M(n)$ to be positive semidefinite,…

Denoting by $P_N(A,\theta)=\det(I-Ae^{-i\theta})$ the characteristic polynomial on the unit circle in the complex plane of an $N\times N$ random unitary matrix $A$, we calculate the $k$th moment, defined with respect to an average over…

The Jarn\'ik-Besicovitch theorem is a fundamental result in metric number theory which gives the Hausdorff dimension for limsup sets. We investigate a related problem of estimating the Hausdorff dimension of a liminf set. Let $h>0, \tau\geq…

We consider the set M_n of all n-truncated power moment sequences of probability measures on [0,1]. We endow this set with the uniform probability. Picking randomly a point in M_n, we show that the upper canonical measure associated with…

We examine the dimensions of the intersection of a subset $E$ of an $m$-ary Cantor space $\mathcal{C}^m$ with the image of a subset $F$ under a random isometry with respect to a natural metric. We obtain almost sure upper bounds for the…

Consider an operator that takes the Fourier transform of a discrete measure supported in $\mathcal{X}\subset[-\frac 12,\frac 12)^d$ and restricts it to a compact $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. We provide lower bounds for its smallest singular…

Let $\mathsf{S}_1$ (the Schatten--von Neumann trace class) denote the Banach space of all compact linear operators $T:\ell_2\to \ell_2$ whose nuclear norm $\|T\|_{\mathsf{S}_1}=\sum_{j=1}^\infty\sigma_j(T)$ is finite, where…

For a square matrix, the range of its Rayleigh quotients is known as the numerical range, which is a compact and convex set by the Toeplitz-Hausdorff theorem. The largest value and the smallest boundary value (in magnitude) of this convex…

Some important problems (e.g., in optimal transport and optimal control) have a relaxed (or weak) formulation in a space of appropriate measures whichis much easier to solve. However, an optimal solution $\mu$ of the latter solves the…

Linear stationary reaction-convection-diffusion equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions are approximated using a simple finite difference method corresponding to central differences and the addition of a high-order stabilization term…

Let $H$ be a Krull monoid with finite class group $G$ such that every class contains a prime divisor (for example, a ring of integers in an algebraic number field or a holomorphy ring in an algebraic function field). The catenary degree…
