Let $r\geq 1$ be an integer, $\mathbf a=(a_1,\ldots,a_r)$ a vector of positive integers and let $D\geq 1$ be a common multiple of $a_1,\ldots,a_r$. In a continuation of a previous paper we prove that, if $D=1$ or $D$ is a prime number, the…

Let $A$ be a nonempty set of positive integers. The restricted partition function $p_A(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$. When the elements in $A$ are pairwise relatively prime positive integers, Ehrhart,…

We show that if $E$ is a countable Borel equivalence relation on $\mathbb{R}^n$, then there is a closed subset $A \subset [0,1]^n$ of Hausdorff dimension $n$ so that $E \restriction A$ is smooth. More generally, if $\leq_Q$ is a locally…

Let $V \subset \mathbb{R}$ be a finite set with $|V| = n $ and suppose we are given each pairwise distance independently with probability $p$. We show that if $p = (1+\epsilon)/n$, for some fixed $\epsilon >0$, then we can reconstruct a…

In this paper, we study the local connectivity and Hausdorff dimension for the boundaries of the bounded hyperbolic components in the space $\mathcal P_d$ of polynomials of degree $d\geq 3$. It is shown that for any non disjoint-type…

We describe the image of general families of two-dimensional representations over compact semi-local rings. Applying this description to the family carried by the universal Hecke algebra acting on the space of modular forms of level $N$…

Lipschitz decomposition is a useful tool in the design of efficient algorithms involving metric spaces. While many bounds are known for different families of finite metrics, the optimal parameters for $n$-point subsets of $\ell_p$, for $p >…

We introduce a variant of the large sieve and give an example of its use in a sieving problem. Take the interval [N] = {1,...,N} and, for each odd prime p <= N^{1/2}, remove or ``sieve out'' by all n whose reduction mod p lies in some…

Given a sequence of independent Bernoulli variables with unknown parameter $p$, and a function $f$ expressed as a power series with non-negative coefficients that sum to at most $1$, an algorithm is presented that produces a Bernoulli…

Bernoulli convolutions form a one-parameter family of self-similar measures on the unit interval. We suggest to study their two-dimensional density which has an intricate combinatorial structure. Visualizing this structure we discuss…

For an abelian variety $A$ over a number field we study bounds depending only on the dimension of $A$ for the minimal degree $d(A)$ of a field extension over which $A$ acquires semi-stable reduction. We first compute $d(A)$ in terms of the…

In the first part of this paper we give a precise description of all the minimal decompositions of any bi-homogeneous polynomial $p$ (i.e. a partially symmetric tensor of $S^{d_1}V_1\otimes S^{d_2}V_2$ where $V_1,V_2$ are two complex,…

We consider probability measures on the real line or unit circle with Jacobi or Verblunsky coefficients satisfying an $\ell^p$ condition and a generalized bounded variation condition. This latter condition requires that a sequence can be…

We show that for the base two expansion \[ x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}2^{-(d_{1}(x)+d_{2}(x)+\dots+d_{i}(x))}\] with $x\in(0,1]$ and $d_{i}(x)\in\mathbb{N}$ the set $A=\{x|\lim_{i\to\infty}d_{i}(x)=\infty\}$ has Hausdorff dimension zero, this is…

Kifer, Peres and Weiss showed that the Bernoulli measures for the Gauss map $T(x)= \frac{1}{x} \mod 1$ satisfy a `dimension gap' meaning that for some $c>0$, $\sup_{\mathbf{p}} \dim \mu_{\mathbf{p}} <1-c$, where $\mu_{\mathbf{p}}$ denotes…

Suppose that $f(x)=Ax^k$ mod $p$ is a permutation of the least residues mod $p$. With the exception of the maps $f(x)=Ax$ and $Ax^{(p+1)/2}$ mod $p$ we show that for fixed $n\geq 2$ the image of each residue class mod $n$ contains elements…

Any discrete distribution with support on $\{0,\ldots, d\}$ can be constructed as the distribution of sums of Bernoulli variables. We prove that the class of $d$-dimensional Bernoulli variables $\boldsymbol{X}=(X_1,\ldots, X_d)$ whose sums…

We prove a quantitative version of the bound on the smallest singular value of a Bernoulli covariance matrix (due to Bai and Yin). Then we use this bound, together with several recent developments, to show that the distance from a random…
