We study an optimal stretching problem for certain convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d\geq 3$) whose boundary has points of vanishing Gaussian curvature. We prove that the optimal domain which contains the most positive (or least…
We study the problem of enumerating Tarski fixed points on finite lattices. We derive query complexity lower bounds for finding three or more Tarski fixed points of isotone maps and the subclasses of increasing and decreasing isotone maps.…
We give a precise estimate for the number of lattice points in certain bounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ that involve `hyperbolic spikes' and occur naturally in multiplicative Diophantine approximation. We use Wilkie's o-minimal structure…
We consider a general linear parabolic problem with extended time boundary conditions (including initial value problems and periodic ones), and approximate it by the implicit Euler scheme in time and the Gradient Discretisation method in…
Let $\Gamma$ be a cocompact discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{C})$ and denote by $\mathcal{H}$ the three dimensional upper half-space. For a $p\in\mathcal{H}$, we count the number of points in the orbit $\Gamma p$, according to…
Combining a modular approach to the $abc$ conjecture developed by the second author with the classical method of linear forms in logarithms, we obtain improved unconditional bounds for two classical problems. First, for Szpiro's conjecture…
We prove limit theorems for the number of fixed points, descents, and inversions of iterated random-to-top shuffles in two asymptotic regimes. Our proofs are analytic, and they utilize new combinatorial decompositions that represent each…
We derive a formula for the number of lattice points in type B generalized permutohedra, providing a concise alternative to the formula obtained recently by Eur, Fink, Larson, and Spink as a result from a study of delta-matroids. Our…
We consider the discrepancy of the integer lattice with respect to the collection of all translated copies of a dilated convex body having a finite number of flat, possibly non-smooth, points in its boundary. We estimate the $L^{p}$ norm of…
Using the auxiliary field method, a generic upper bound is obtained for the spinless Salpeter equation with two different masses. Analytical results are presented for the cases of the Coulomb and linear potentials when a mass is vanishing.
We improve the error terms of some estimates related to counting lattices from recent work of L. Fukshansky, P. Guerzhoy and F. Luca (2017). This improvement is based on some analytic techniques, in particular on bounds of exponential sums…
In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…
For $n\geq 3$ and $\Gamma$ a cocompact lattice acting on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, we investigate the average behaviour of the error term in the circle problem. First, we explore the local average of the error term over compact…
For the $N$-centre problem in the three dimensional space, $$ \ddot x = -\sum_{i=1}^{N} \frac{m_i \,(x-c_i)}{\vert x - c_i \vert^{\alpha+2}}, \qquad x \in \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus \{c_1,\ldots,c_N\}, $$ where $N \geq 2$, $m_i > 0$ and $\alpha…
This paper is concerned with estimating the intersection point of two densities, given a sample of both of the densities. This problem arises in classification theory. The main results provide lower bounds for the probability of the…
We prove the $l^2$ Decoupling Conjecture for compact hypersurfaces with positive definite second fundamental form and also for the cone. This has a wide range of important consequences. One of them is the validity of the Discrete…
In a previous paper I showed how the ideal SLAC derivative and second-derivative operators for an infinite lattice can be obtained in simple closed form in position space, and implemented very efficiently in a stochastic fashion for…
We show a pointwise estimate for the Fourier transform on the line involving the number of times the function changes monotonicity. The contrapositive of the theorem may be used to find a lower bound to the number of local maxima of a…
We explore the use of correlation with simple functions to get lower bounds for arithmetic quantities. In particular, we apply this idea to the power moments of the error term when counting visible lattice points in large spheres.
In this article we prove lower and upper bounds for class numbers of algebraic curves defined over finite fields. These bounds turn out to be better than most of the previously known bounds obtained using combinatorics. The methods used in…
