Data consisting of a graph with a function mapping into $\mathbb{R}^d$ arise in many data applications, encompassing structures such as Reeb graphs, geometric graphs, and knot embeddings. As such, the ability to compare and cluster such…
First we find effective bounds for the number of dominant rational maps $f:X \rightarrow Y$ between two fixed smooth projective varieties with ample canonical bundles. The bounds are of the type $\{A \cdot K_X^n\}^{\{B \cdot K_X^n\}^2}$,…
Let $\Gamma$ denote a finite, simple and connected graph. Fix a vertex $x$ of $\Gamma$ which is not a leaf and let $T=T(x)$ denote the Terwilliger algebra of $\Gamma$ with respect to $x$. Assume that the unique irreducible $T$-module with…
Let $d\geq 3$ be a fixed integer and $A$ be the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed or undirected graph on $n$ vertices. We show there exist constants $\mathfrak d>0$, \begin{align*} {\mathbb P}(\text{$A$ is singular in…
Recently, generalizations of the classical Three Gap Theorem to higher dimensions attracted a lot of attention. In particular, upper bounds for the number of nearest neighbor distances have been established for the Euclidean and the maximum…
The Three Gap Theorem states that for any $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ and $N \in \mathbb{N}$, the fractional parts of $\{ 0\alpha, 1\alpha, \dots, (N - 1)\alpha \}$ partition the unit circle into gaps of at most three distinct lengths. We prove…
In this paper we study variations of the Hopf theorem concerning continuous maps $f$ of a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$. We investigate the case when $M$ is a closed convex $n$-dimensional surface and…
We show that every interval in the homomorphism order of finite undirected graphs is either universal or a gap. Together with density and universality this "fractal" property contributes to the spectacular properties of the homomorphism…
We prove fixed point theorems in a space with a distance function that takes values in a partially ordered monoid. On the one hand, such an approach allows one to generalize some fixed point theorems in a broad class of spaces, including…
Defining distances over finite fields formally by $||x-y||:=(x_1-y_1)^2+\cdots + (x_d-y_d)^2$ for $x,y\in \mathbb{F}_q^d$, distance problems naturally arise in analogy to those studied by Erd\H{o}s and Falconer in Euclidean space. Given a…
A rational distance set is a subset of the plane such that the distance between any two points is a rational number. We show, assuming Lang's Conjecture, that the cardinalities of rational distance sets in general position are uniformly…

We prove several rigidity results on multiplier spectrum and length spectrum. For example, we show that for every non-exceptional rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})\to\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ of degree $d\geq2$, the…
The $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture due to De Mathan and Teuli\'e asserts that for any prime number $p$ and any real number $\alpha$, the equation $$\inf_{|m|\ge 1} |m|\cdot |m|_p\cdot |\langle m\alpha \rangle|\, =\, 0 $$ holds. Here, $|m|$…
A rational function of degree at least two with coefficients in an algebraically closed field is post-critically finite (PCF) if all of its critical points have finite forward orbit under iteration. We show that the collection of PCF…
The elimination distance to some target graph property P is a general graph modification parameter introduced by Bulian and Dawar. We initiate the study of elimination distances to graph properties expressible in first-order logic. We…
For each prime $p$, let $I_p \subset \mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ denote a collection of residue classes modulo $p$ such that the cardinalities $|I_p|$ are bounded and about $1$ on average. We show that for sufficiently large $x$, the sifted set…
We introduce an extension of the fellow traveler property which allows fellow travelers to be at distance bounded from above by a function $f(n)$ growing slower than any linear function. We study normal forms satisfying this extended fellow…
It has been argued by Shepard that there is a robust psychological law that relates the distance between a pair of items in psychological space and the probability that they will be confused with each other. Specifically, the probability of…
Let F be a family of Borel measurable functions on a complete separable metric space. The gap (or fat-shattering) dimension of F is a combinatorial quantity that measures the extent to which functions f in F can separate finite sets of…
