Let $p(\cdot):\ \mathbb{R}^n\to(0,1]$ be a variable exponent function satisfying the globally log-H\"{o}lder continuous condition and $A$ a general expansive matrix on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Let $H_A^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ be the variable…

Let $p\ge 3$ be a prime, $S\subseteq\mathbb F_p^2$ a nonempty set, and $w\colon\mathbb F_p^2\to\mathbb R$ a function with $\mathrm{supp}\, w=S$. Applying an uncertainty inequality due to Andr\'as Bir\'o and the present author, we show that…

In this work, we will present variants Fixed Point Theorem for the affine and classical contexts, as a consequence of general Brouwer's Fixed Point Theorem. For instance, the affine results will allow working on affine balls, which are…

The aim of this paper is to prove two new uncertainty principles for the Fourier-Bessel transform (or Hankel transform). The first of these results is an extension of a result of Amrein-Berthier-Benedicks, it states that a non zero function…

We prove that if $G$ is an abelian group and $H_1x_1,\dots,H_{k}x_k$ is an irredundant (minimal) cover of $G$ with cosets, then $$|G:\bigcap_{i=1}^{k}H_{i}|=2^{O(k)}.$$ This bound is the best possible up to the constant hidden in the…

We consider the families of finite Abelian groups $\ZZ/p\ZZ\times \ZZ/p\ZZ$, $\ZZ/p^2\ZZ$ and $\ZZ/p\ZZ\times \ZZ/q\ZZ$ for $p,q$ two distinct prime numbers. For the two first families we give a simple characterization of all functions…

The classical uncertainty principles deal with functions on abelian groups. In this paper, we discuss the uncertainty principles for finite index subfactors which include the cases for finite groups and finite dimensional Kac algebras. We…

We give a generalization of the geometric estimate used by Hart and the second author in their 2008 work on sums and products in finite fields. Their result concerned level sets of non-degenerate bilinear forms over finite fields, while in…

We prove sharp $L^2$ Fourier restriction inequalities for compact, smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with the affine surface measure or a power thereof. The results are valid for all smooth surfaces and the bounds are uniform for…

Classical and recent results on uncertainty principles for functions on finite Abelian groups relate the cardinality of the support of a function to the cardinality of the support of its Fourier transforms. We use these results and their…

The existence of a smooth, nonnegative, compactly supported function with monotone (on the half-line) Fourier transform satisfying two-sided decay bounds is demonstrated.

We explore the extent to which the Fourier transform of an $L^p$ density supported on the sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$ can have large mass on affine subspaces, placing particular emphasis on lines and hyperplanes. This involves establishing…

We consider the function $x^{-1}$ that inverses a finite field element $x \in \mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ ($p$ is prime, $0^{-1} = 0$) and affine $\mathbb{F}_{p}$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ such that their images are affine subspaces as well. It…

We study finiteness (and vanishing) properties of the higher order degrees associated to complements of complex affine plane curves with mild singularities at infinity. Our results impose new obstructions on the class of groups that can be…

We prove a family of $L^p$ uncertainty inequalities on fairly general groups and homogeneous spaces, both in the smooth and in the discrete setting. The crucial point is the proof of the $L^1$ endpoint, which is derived from a general weak…

A function $f:\mathbb{Z}_n \to \mathbb{C}$ can be represented as a linear combination $f(x)=\sum_{\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}_n}\widehat{f}(\alpha) \chi_{\alpha,n}(x)$ where $\widehat{f}$ is the (discrete) Fourier transform of $f$. Clearly, the…

The aim of this paper is to prove new uncertainty principles for an integral operator $\tt$ with a bounded kernel for which there is a Plancherel theorem. The first of these results is an extension of Faris's local uncertainty principle…

It is known that if $p$ is a sufficiently large prime then for every function $f:\mathbb{Z}_p\to [0,1]$ there exists a continuous function on the circle $f':\mathbb{T}\to [0,1]$ such that the averages of $f$ and $f'$ across any prescribed…

Let $F$ be a finite field with characteristic greater than two. Define a \emph{Besicovitch set} in $F^4$ to be a set $P \subseteq F^4$ containing a line in every direction. The \emph{Kakeya conjecture} asserts that $|P| \approx |F|^4$. A…

We study the action of the infinite Frobenius on the de Rham fundamental groups of affine curves defined over $\bfR$. As an application, we compute extension classes of real mixed Hodge structures associated with the motivic fundamental…
