Newman's conjecture (proved by Rodgers and Tao in 2018) concerns a certain family of deformations $\{\xi_t(s)\}_{t \in \mathbb{R}}$ of the Riemann xi function for which there exists an associated constant $\Lambda \in \mathbb{R}$ (called…

Consistency constraints for low-energy theories, especially those lacking Lorentz invariance, have recently garnered attention. Building on results from black hole thermodynamics, we investigate the conjecture that leading irrelevant…

The well known Boole-Shannon expansion of Boolean functions in several variables (with co-efficients in a Boolean algebra $B$) is also known in more general form in terms of expansion in a set $\Phi$ of orthonormal functions. However,…

We derive Bose-Einstein statistics and Fermi-Dirac statistics by Principle of Maximum Entropy applied to two families of entropy functions different from the Boltzmann-Gibbs-Shannon entropy. These entropy functions are identified with…

We prove that if a free ergodic action of a countably infinite group has positive Rokhlin entropy (or, less generally, positive sofic entropy) then it factors onto all Bernoulli shifts of lesser or equal entropy. This extends to all…

In this note we consider Boolean functions defined on the discrete cube equipped with a biased product probability measure. We prove that if the spectrum of such a function is concentrated on the first two Fourier levels, then the function…

We address a special case of a conjecture of M. Talagrand relating two notions of "threshold" for an increasing family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of a finite set $V$. The full conjecture implies equivalence of the "Fractional…

There is a common theme to some research questions in additive combinatorics and noise stability. Both study the following basic question: Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a probability distribution over a space $\Omega^\ell$ with all $\ell$ marginals…

We call an element $U$ conditionally universal for a sequential convergence space $\mathbf{\Omega}$ with respect to a minimal system $\{\varphi_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ in a continuously and densely embedded Banach space…

We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…

The entropy power inequality (EPI) and the Brascamp-Lieb inequality (BLI) are fundamental inequalities concerning the differential entropies of linear transformations of random vectors. The EPI provides lower bounds for the differential…

The well-known Zalcman conjecture, which implies the Bieberbach conjecture, states that the coefficients of univalent functions $f(z) = z + \sum\limits_2^{\infty} a_n z^n$ on the unit disk satisfy $|a_n^2 - a_{2n-1}| \le (n-1)^2$ for all $n…

The Feichtinger conjecture for exponentials asserts that the following property holds for every fat Cantor subset B of the circle group: the set of restrictions to B of exponential functions can be covered by Riesz sets. In their seminal…

A celebrated unresolved conjecture of Peter Frankl states that every finite collection of sets, with finite universe, admits an abundant element. In this paper, we prove Frankl's union-closed conjecture(FC). We provide an induction proof…

We improve results of Kahn, Kalai, and Linial from the late 80s on the existence of influential large coalitions for Boolean functions, and we give counterexamples to conjectures (of Benny Chor and others) also from the late 80s, by…

Let $f$ be a real-valued, degree-$d$ Boolean function defined on the $n$-dimensional Boolean cube $\{\pm 1\}^{n}$, and $f(x) = \sum_{S \subset \{1,\ldots,d\}} \widehat{f}(S) \prod_{k \in S} x_k$ its Fourier-Walsh expansion. The main result…

This article is centered around generalizing a previous implicit function theorem of the author to be applicable for maps f:E sqcap F to F which can be lifted to Keller C^k_pi maps f_i:E sqcap F_i to F_i with F_i Banach and F=projlim F_i .…

We consider a previously proposed non-extensive statistical mechanics in which the entropy depends only on the probability, this was obtained from a f(\beta) distribution and its corresponding Boltzmann factor. We show that the first term…

We address a recent conjecture stated by Z. Van Herstraeten and N.J. Cerf. They claim that the Shannon entropy for positive Wigner functions is bounded below by a positive constant, which can be attained only by Gaussian pure states. We…
