An old conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi, proved by Schinzel, predicted a bound for the number of terms of a polynomial $g(x) \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ when its square $g(x)^2$ has a given number of terms. Further conjectures and results arose,…
In this article we prove the existence of sets $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of zero Fourier dimension such that it is possible to restrict the Fourier transform to $E$ on a certain non-trivial range $[1,\tilde{p})$ with $1<\tilde{p}<2$. This…
Let G be any additive abelian group with cyclic torsion subgroup, and let A, B and C be finite subsets of G with cardinality n>0. We show that there is a numbering {a_i}_{i=1}^n of the elements of A, a numbering {b_i}_{i=1}^n of the…
In 2020, Roger Baker \cite{Bak} proved a result on the exceptional set of moduli in the prime number theorem for arithmetic progressions of the following kind. Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a set of pairwise coprime moduli $q\le x^{9/40}$. Then the…
We generalize current known distribution results on Shanks--R\'enyi prime number races to the case where arbitrarily many residue classes are involved. Our method handles both the classical case that goes back to Chebyshev and function…
Introducing the notion of a rational system of measure preserving transformations and proving a recurrence result for such systems, we give sufficient conditions in order a subset of rational numbers to contain arbitrary long arithmetic…
The dominated convergence theorem implies that if (f_n) is a sequence of functions on a probability space taking values in the interval [0,1], and (f_n) converges pointwise a.e., then the sequence of integrals converges to the integral of…
We show that linearly repetitive weighted Delone sets in groups of polynomial growth have a uniquely ergodic hull. This result applies in particular to the linearly repetitive weighted Delone sets in homogeneous Lie groups constructed in…
Given a subset of the integers of zero density, we define the weaker notion of fractional density of such a set. It is shown how this notion corresponds to that of the Hausdorff dimension of a compact subset of the reals. We then show that…
If $A$ is a set of integers having positive upper Banach density and $r,s,t$ are nonzero integers whose sum is zero, a theorem of Bergelson and Ruzsa says that the set $rA+sA+tA:=\{ra_1+sa_2+ta_3:a_i\in A\}$ contains a Bohr neighborhood of…
When we consider the action of a finite group on a polynomial ring, a polynomial unchanged by the action is called an invariant polynomial. A famous result of Noether states that in characteristic zero the maximal degree of a minimal…
We provide sufficient density condition for a set of nonuniform samples to give rise to a set of sampling for multivariate bandlimited functions when the measurements consist of pointwise evaluations of a function and its first $k$…
We prove the following conjecture of Shkredov and Solymosi: every subset $A \subset \mathbf{Z}^2$ such that $\sum_{a\in A\setminus\{0\}} 1/\left\|a\right\|^{2} = +\infty$ contains the three vertices of an isosceles right triangle. To do…
For a class of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, which in particular includes all quadratic polynomials, and also trinomials of some special form, we show that, under some natural conditions (necessary for quadratic polynomials), the set…
In this paper we show that every set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive density contains $B+C$ for some pair $B,C$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, settling a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. The proof features two different decompositions of…
We establish new bounds in the Bogolyubov-Ruzsa lemma, demonstrating that if A is a subset of a finite abelian group with density alpha, then 3A-3A contains a Bohr set of rank O(log^2 (2/alpha)) and radius Omega(log^{-2} (2/alpha)). The…
We prove a generalization of the author's work to show that any subset of the primes which is `well-distributed' in arithmetic progressions contains many primes which are close together. Moreover, our bounds hold with some uniformity in the…
Let $d,k$ be natural numbers and let $\mathcal{L}_1, \dots, \mathcal{L}_k \in \mathrm{GL}_d(\mathbb{Q})$ be linear transformations such that there are no non-trivial subspaces $U, V \subseteq \mathbb{Q}^d$ of the same dimension satisfying…
In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes with positive relative density $\delta$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density $C_1\delta e^{-C_2(\log(1/\delta))^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\delta))^{1/3}}$ in $\mathbb{N}$. Our…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $A$ be a subset of $G \times G$ which is corner--free, meaning that there are no $x, y \in G$ and $d \in G \setminus \{0\}$ such that $(x, y)$, $(x+d, y)$, $(x, y+d) \in A$. We prove that \[|A| \le…
