This paper describes some of the ideas used in the development of our work on small gaps between primes.
In this paper, we construct a semigroup associated to an action of countable discrete group on a compact Hausdorff space, that can be regarded as a higher dimensional generalization of the type semigroup. Using this generalized type…
I discuss recent advances in the study of hydrogen reionization, focusing on progress that was achieved during the years 2010-2011. First, I discuss recent measurements of the progress of reionization. Next, I discuss recent observational…
The purpose of this note is to verify that the results attained in [6] admit an extension to the multidimensional setting. Namely, for subsets of the two dimensional torus we find the sharp growth rate of the step(s) of a generalized…
These are expanded lecture notes for the summer school on Berkovich spaces that took place at the Institut de Math\'ematiques de Jussieu, Paris in 2010. They serve to illustrate some techniques and results from the dynamics on…
We prove a generalization of Livsic's Theorem on the vanishing of the cohomology of certain types of dynamical systems. As a consequence, we strengthen a result due to Zimmer concerning algebraic hulls of Anosov actions of semisimple Lie…
These notes were intended as support material for a minicourse on Anosov flows in the conference "Symplectic geometry and Anosov flows'' which took place in Heidelberg in July 2024 organized by Peter Albers, Jonathan Bowden and Agust\'in…
In this article, which is dedicated to my friend and colleague Boris Zilber on the occasion of his 75th birthday, I put forward a strategy for proving his quasiminimality conjecture for the complex exponential field. That is, for showing…
This is a working progress report on the attempt by Yuri Dokshitzer, Gavin Salam and myself to relate the small-$x$ behaviour of the anomalous dimensions in the time- and space-like cases. This relation is based on a ``reciprocity…
This is an extension and background to a talk I gave on 9 October 2013 to the Brown Graduate Student Seminar, called `A friendly intro to sieves with a look towards recent progress on the twin primes conjecture.' During the talk, I mention…
We offer a clarification of the significance of the indicated paper of H. Cheng. Cheng's conclusions about the attractive nature of Casimir forces between parallel plates are valid beyond the particular model in which he derived them; they…
Several relations are obtained among the Riemann zeta and Hurwitz zeta functions, as well as their products. A particular case of these relations give rise to a simple re-derivation if the important results of [11]. Also, a relation derived…
We prove a stronger version of a conjecture stated in a paper from 2017 by J. M. Ash and S. Catoiu concerning relations between various notions of the Lipschitz property and differentiability in the Euclidean plane. We also provide an…
This note addresses the continuum problem, taking advantage of the breakthrough mentioned in the subtitle, and relating it to many recent advances occurring in set theory.
Fast-slow systems are notoriously difficult to analyze with rigorous numerics, since the qualitative properties of the solution space change fundamentally when the so-called small parameter $\epsilon$ is varied from 0 to small non-zero…
The following is an amalgamation of four preprints and some computer programs which together represent the current state of our investigations of higher order links. This investigation was motivated by questions discussed and raised in the…
This review presents some theoretical advances in the field of quantum magnetism in two-dimensional systems, and quantum spin liquids in particular. It is to be published as a chapter in the second edition of the book "Frustrated spin…
This manuscript is a shorthand version of my talk given at Odessa Gamov School on Astronomy, Cosmology and Beyond (22-28 August 2011, Odessa, Ukraine). Within this note we very briefly review the main achievements, new results and open…
The purpose of this proceeding is twofold. Firstly, we shall make the refining of the Gribov-Zwanziger action more complete by taking into account more condensates than considered so far. Secondly, we shall provide more evidence for the…
In this article we explain the theory of rigid residue complexes in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, summarizing the background, recent results and anticipated future results. Unlike all previous approaches to Grothendiec…
