We present some elementary ideas to prove the following Sylvester-Gallai type theorems involving incidences between points and lines in the planes over the complex numbers and quaternions. (1) Let A and B be finite sets of at least two…

We study the distribution functions of several classical error terms in analytic number theory, focusing on the remainder term in the Dirichlet divisor problem $\Delta(x)$. We first bound the discrepancy between the distribution function of…

For a compact and convex window, Mecke described a process of tessellations which arise from cell divisions in discrete time. At each time step, one of the existing cells is selected according to an equally-likely law. Independently, a line…

Using a simple tight-binding model, we compare the limitations of the tunnelling predictions coming out of the complex band structure of a semiconductor with the output of thin film calculations done for the same semiconducting spacer but…

We present a direct and fairly simple proof of the following incidence bound: Let $P$ be a set of $m$ points and $L$ a set of $n$ lines in ${\mathbb R}^d$, for $d\ge 3$, which lie in a common algebraic two-dimensional surface of degree $D$…

Erd\H{o}s-Beck theorem states that $n$ points in the plane with at most $n-x$ points collinear define at least $c xn$ lines for some positive constant $c$. In this paper, we will present two ways to extend this result to higher dimensions.…

We prove a general theorem that gives a linear recurrence for tuples of paths in every cylindrical network. This can be seen as a cylindrical analog of the Lindstr\"om-Gessel-Viennot theorem. We illustrate the result by applying it to Schur…

In this paper we prove the following results in the plane. They are related to each other, while each of them has its own interest. First we obtain an $\epsilon_0$-increment on intersection between pencils of $\delta$-tubes, under…

Let $P$ be a $\delta$-separated $(\delta, s, C_P)$-set of points in $B(0, 1)\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and $\Pi$ be a $\delta$-separated $(\delta, t, C_\Pi)$-set of hyperplanes intersecting $B(0, 1)$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Define \[I_{C\delta}(P,…

The aim of this note is firstly to give a new brief proof of classical Bochner's Tube Theorem (1938) by making use of K. Oka's Boundary Distance Theorem (1942), showing directly that two points of the envelope of holomorphy of a tube can be…

We present a nonstandard simple elementary proof of Szemer\'{e}di's theorem by a straightforward induction with the help of three levels of infinities and four different elementary embeddings in a nonstandard universe.

Given an isotropic random vector $X$ with log-concave density in Euclidean space $\Real^n$, we study the concentration properties of $|X|$ on all scales, both above and below its expectation. We show in particular that: \[ \P(\abs{|X|…

In this paper, we prove the first incidence bound for points and conics over prime fields. As applications, we prove new results on expansion of bivariate polynomial images and on certain variations of distinct distances problems. These…

As a generalization of Hausdorff's extension theorem of metrics, we prove an interpolation theorem of a family of metrics defined on closed subsets of metrizable spaces. As an application, we investigate typicality of subsets of moduli…

We consider the problem of optimal transportation with general cost between a empirical measure and a general target probability on R d , with d $\ge$ 1. We extend results in [19] and prove asymptotic stability of both optimal transport…

We introduce a novel notion of pasting shapes for iterated Segal spaces which classify particular arrangements of composing cells in d-uple Segal spaces. Using this formalism, we then continue to prove a pasting theorem for these iterated…

A key tool in recent advances in understanding arithmetic progressions and other patterns in subsets of the integers is certain norms or seminorms. One example is the norms on $\Z/N\Z$ introduced by Gowers in his proof of Szemer\'edi's…

The diffusion of particles in confining walls forming a tube is discussed. Such a transport phenomenon is observed in biological cells and porous media. We consider the case in which the tube is winding with curvature and torsion, and the…

We prove the following extension of the Wiener--Wintner Theorem in Ergodic Theor and the Carleson Theorem on pointwise convergence of Fourier series: For all measure preserving flows $ (X,\mu , T_t)$ and $ f\in L^p (X,\mu)$, there is a set…

We prove explicit semiclassical resolvent estimates for an integrable potential on the real line. The proof is a comparatively easy case of the spherical energies method, which has been used to prove similar theorems in higher dimensions…
