We study multiscalar theories with $\text{O}(N) \times \text{O}(2)$ symmetry. These models have a stable fixed point in $d$ dimensions if $N$ is greater than some critical value $N_c(d)$. Previous estimates of this critical value from…
We formulate the RNA folding problem as an $N\times N$ matrix field theory. This matrix formalism allows us to give a systematic classification of the terms in the partition function according to their topological character. The theory is…
For fixed $m$ and $R\subseteq \{0,1,\ldots,m-1\}$, take $A$ to be the set of positive integers congruent modulo $m$ to one of the elements of $R$, and let $p_A(n)$ be the number of ways to write $n$ as a sum of elements of $A$. Nathanson…
We prove that, given $\epsilon>0$ and $k\geq 1$, there is an integer $n$ such that the following holds. Suppose $G$ is a finite group and $A\subseteq G$ is $k$-stable. Then there is a normal subgroup $H\leq G$ of index at most $n$, and a…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group with exponent $n$, and let $r$ be a positive integer. Let $A$ be a $k\times m$ matrix with integer entries. We show that if $A$ satisfies some natural conditions and $|G|$ is large enough then, for each…
Motivated by an influential result of Bourgain and Tzafriri, we consider continuous matrix functions $A:\mathbb{R}\to M_{n\times n}$ and lower $\ell_2$-norm bounds associated with their restriction to certain subspaces. We prove that for…
We study the maximum size of a set system on $n$ elements whose trace on any $b$ elements has size at most $k$. We show that if for some $b \ge i \ge 0$ the shatter function $f_R$ of a set system $([n],R)$ satisfies $f_R(b) < 2^i(b-i+1)$…
Let \frak a be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R and M a finitely generated R-module. It is shown that {\rm Ann}_R(H_{\frak a}^{{\dim M}({\frak a}, M)}(M))= {\rm Ann}_R(M/T_R({\frak a}, M)), where T_R({\frak a}, M) is the largest…
We study the distribution of partial sums of Rademacher random multiplicative functions $(f(n))_n$ evaluated at polynomial arguments. We show that for a polynomial $P\in \mathbb Z[x]$ that is a product of at least two distinct linear…
For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…
Motivated both by recently introduced forms of list colouring and by earlier work on independent transversals subject to a local sparsity condition, we use the semi-random method to prove the following result. For any function $\mu$…
It is shown that every measurable partition ${A_1,..., A_k}$ of $\mathbb{R}^3$ satisfies $$\sum_{i=1}^k||\int_{A_i} xe^{-\frac12||x||_2^2}dx||_2^2\le 9\pi^2.\qquad(*)$$ Let ${P_1,P_2,P_3}$ be the partition of $\mathbb{R}^2$ into $120^\circ$…
A system of linear equations with integer coefficients is partition regular over a subset S of the reals if, whenever S\{0} is finitely coloured, there is a solution to the system contained in one colour class. It has been known for some…
Suppose $A$ is a subset of $\{1, \dotsc, N\}$ which does not contain any configurations of the form $x,x+\lfloor n^c \rfloor$ where $n \neq 0$ and $1<c<\frac{6}{5}$. We show that the density of $A$ relative to the first $N$ integers is…
The quantization of the superclassical system used in the proof of the index theorem results in a factor of $\hbar^{2}R/8 $ in the Hamiltonian. The path integral expression of the kernel is analyzed up to and including 2-loop order. The…
Let $A$ be a finite matrix with rational entries. We say that $A$ is {\it doubly image partition regular\/} if whenever the set ${\mathbb N}$ of positive integers is finitely coloured, there exists $\vec x$ such that the entries of $A\vec…

In the negative perceptron problem we are given $n$ data points $({\boldsymbol x}_i,y_i)$, where ${\boldsymbol x}_i$ is a $d$-dimensional vector and $y_i\in\{+1,-1\}$ is a binary label. The data are not linearly separable and hence we…
Let $\A\subset\binom{[n]}{r}$ be a compressed, intersecting family and let $X\subset[n]$. Let $\A(X)={A\in\A:A\cap X\ne\emptyset}$ and $\S_{n,r}=\binom{[n]}{r}({1})$. Motivated by the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem, Borg asked for which…
We consider a large family of branching-selection particle systems. The branching rate of each particle depends on its rank and is given by a function $b$ defined on the unit interval. There is also a killing measure $D$ supported on the…
