Given a finite family F of linear forms with integer coefficients, and a compact abelian group G, an F-free set in G is a measurable set which does not contain solutions to any equation L(x)=0 for L in F. We denote by d_F(G) the supremum of…

Let $S$ be a dense subring of the real numbers. In this paper we prove a polynomial version of Van der Waerden's theorem near zero. In fact, we prove that if $p_1,\ldots,p_m \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ are polynomials such that $p_i(0) = 0$ and…

We investigate the evolution of non-linear density perturbations by taking into account the effects of deviations from spherical symmetry of a system. Starting from the standard spherical top hat model in which these effects are ignored, we…

Nowhere dense classes of graphs are very general classes of uniformly sparse graphs with several seemingly unrelated characterisations. From an algorithmic perspective, a characterisation of these classes in terms of uniform quasi-wideness,…

For each vector $x\in \ell^{\infty}$, we can define the non-empty compact set $L_x$ of accumulation points of $x$. Given an infinite subset $A$ of $\mathbb{N}\backslash\{1\}$, we can therefore investigate under which conditions on $A$, the…

We study the value distribution of the Sudler product $P_N(\alpha) := \prod_{n=1}^{N}\lvert2\sin(\pi n \alpha)\rvert$ for Lebesgue-almost every irrational $\alpha$. We show that for every non-decreasing function $\psi: (0,\infty) \to…

Weakly chaotic maps with unstable fixed points are investigated in the regime where the invariant density is non-normalizable. We propose that the infinite invariant density of these maps can be estimated using as the long time limit of…

We establish a positivity property for a class of semilinear elliptic problems involving indefinite sublinear nonlinearities. Namely, we show that any nontrivial nonnegative solution is positive for a class of problems the strong maximum…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…

In this paper we define the notion of non-thin at $\infty$ as follows: Let $E$ be a subset of $\Bbb C^m$. For any $R>0$ define $E_R=E\cap \{z\in \Bbb C ^m :|z|\leq R\}$. We say that $E$ is non-thin at $\infty$ if…

Suppose $a_n$ is a real, nonnegative sequence that does not increase exponentially. For any $p<1$ we contruct a Lebesgue measurable set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ which has measure at least $p$ in any unit interval and which contains no…

Nowhere dense classes of graphs are classes of sparse graphs with rich structural and algorithmic properties, however, they fail to capture even simple classes of dense graphs. Monadically stable classes, originating from model theory,…

Let $Y$ be a compact metric space, $G$ be a group acting by transformations on $Y$. For any infinite subset $A\subset Y$, we study the density of $gA$ for $g\in G$ and quantitative density of the set $\displaystyle{\bigcup_{g\in G_n}gA}$ by…

Let $\mathcal{P}({\bf N})$ be the power set of $\bf N$. An upper density (on $\bf N$) is a non\-decreasing and subadditive function $\mu^\ast: \mathcal{P}({\bf N})\to\bf R$ such that $\mu^\ast({\bf N}) = 1$ and $\mu^\ast(k \cdot X + h) =…

By a result of Helton and McCullough, open bounded convex free semialgebraic sets are exactly open (matricial) solution sets D_L of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) L(X)>0. This paper gives a precise algebraic certificate for a polynomial…

We generalize the Sarkozy-Furstenberg theorem on squares in difference sets of integers, and show that, given any positive definite function f:Z_N->C with density at least r(N), where r(N)=O((\log N)^{-c}), there is a perfect square s<=N/2…

For a nondegenerate $r$-graph $F$, large $n$, and $t$ in the regime $[0, c_{F} n]$, where $c_F>0$ is a constant depending only on $F$, we present a general approach for determining the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-graph that…

For every $\beta\in(0,\infty)$, $\beta\neq 1$ we prove that a positive measure subset $A$ of the unit square contains a point $(x_0,y_0)$ such that $A$ nontrivially intersects curves $y-y_0 = a (x-x_0)^\beta$ for a whole interval…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote a finite set of arithmetic progressions of positive integers and let $s \geq 2$ be an integer. If the cardinality of $\mathcal{A}$ is at least 2 and $U$ is the union formed by taking certain arithmetic progressions…

Let $0<\gamma_1\leq \gamma_2\leq \ldots$ denote the positive ordinates of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. A result first announced by Selberg states that there exist absolute constants $\Theta, \vartheta>0$ such that for…
