In this paper, we develop a modified proof strategy for homological stability of linear groups, with the general linear groups serving as a primary example. Our arguments are more direct than those in the classical works of Quillen and…

In this paper we prove an explicit version of a function field analogue of a classical result of Odoni about norms in number fields in the case of a cyclic Galois extensions. In the particular case of a quadratic extension, we recover the…

The Collatz conjecture can be stated in terms of the reduced Collatz function R(x) = (3x+1)/2^m (where 2^m is the larger power of 2 that divides 3x+1). The conjecture is: Starting from any odd positive integer and repeating R(x) we…

If a pair of functions nearly extremizes Young's convolution inequality for R^d, with all three exponents finite and strictly greater than 1, then each function is close in norm to a Gaussian. The proof relies on the Riesz-Sobolev…

For $N \in \mathbb{N}$ consider the $N$-th section of the approximate functional equation $$ \zeta_N(s)= \sum_{n =1 }^N B_n(s),$$ where $$ B_n(s)= \frac{1}{2} \left [ n^{-s} + \chi(s) \cdot n^{s-1} \right ].$$ Our aim in this work is to…

We consider sets in $\mathbb R^N$ which minimise, for fixed volume, the sum of the perimeter and a non-local term given by the double integral of a kernel $g:\mathbb R^N\setminus\{0\}\to \mathbb R^+$. We establish some general existence and…

In this note, we study both the Riesz and reverse Riesz transforms on broken line. This model can be described by $(-\infty, -1] \cup [1,\infty)$ equipped with the measure $d\mu = |r|^{d_{1}-1}dr$ for $r \le -1$ and $d\mu = r^{d_{2}-1}dr$…

Wave propagation problems have many applications in physics and engineering, and the stochastic effects are important in accurately modeling them due to the uncertainty of the media. This paper considers and analyzes a fully discrete finite…

We consider a class of weighted harmonic functions in the open upper half-plane known as $\alpha$-harmonic functions. Of particular interest is the uniqueness problem for such functions subject to a vanishing Dirichlet boundary value on the…

We present new concentration of measure inequalities for Markov chains, generalising results for chains that are contracting in Wasserstein distance. These are particularly suited to establishing the cut-off phenomenon for suitable chains.…

An important family of structural constants in the theory of symmetric functions and in the representation theory of symmetric groups and general linear groups are the plethysm coefficients. In 1950, Foulkes observed that they have some…

Let $G$ be a finite group acting vertex-transitively on a graph. We show that bounding the order of a vertex stabilizer is equivalent to bounding the second singular value of a particular bipartite graph. This yields an alternative…

We study the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplace operator on an arbitrary bounded, open set in $\R^d$, $d \geq 2$. In particular, we derive upper bounds on Riesz means of order $\sigma \geq 3/2$, that improve the sharp Berezin inequality…

We prove a rearrangement inequality for the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function $M_{\mu}$ associate to general measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}$. This inequality is analogous to the Stein's result $cf^{**}(t)\leq(Mf)^{*}(t)\leq C…

The purpose of this paper is threefold. First the natural extension of Riesz potentials to the context of quasi metric measure spaces for the class of upper doubling measures are studied on Lebesgue spaces, obtaining necessary and…

We consider the following property of a first order theory T with a distinguished unary predicate P: every model of the theory of P occurs as the P-part of some model of T. We call this property the Gaifman property. Gaifman conjectured…

The paper studies entire functions of finite order of growth for which a representation of the form $\psi(z) = 1+ O(|z|^{-\mu}), \mu >0,$ as $z\to \infty$, is valid on a fixed ray of the complex plane. The main result is the following.…

We give a distribution-dependent concentration inequality for functions of independent variables. The result extends Bernstein's inequality from sums to more general functions, whose variation in any argument does not depend too much on the…

Let (X, d) be a quasi-convex, complete and separable metric space with reference probability measure m. We prove that the set of of real valued Lipschitz function with non zero point-wise Lipschitz constant m-almost everywhere is residual,…

In the present paper, the following convexity principle is proved: any closed convex multifunction, which is metrically regular in a certain uniform sense near a given point, carries small balls centered at that point to convex sets, even…
