We show that a finite zero-sum-free sequence $\alpha$ over an abelian group has at least $c|\alpha|^{4/3}$ distinct subsequence sums, unless $\alpha$ is "controlled" by a small number of its terms; here $|\alpha|$ denotes the number of…

We provide a sharp rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for random vectors with an unconditional, log-concave density. The argument relies on analysis of the Neumann laplacian on convex domains and on the theory of optimal…

Every sequence $f_1, f_2, \cdots \, $ of random variables with $ \, \lim_{M \to \infty} \big( M \sup_{k \in \mathbb{N}} \mathbb{P} ( |f_k| > M ) \big)=0\,$ contains a subsequence $ f_{k_1}, f_{k_2} , \cdots \,$ that satisfies, along with…

The Generalized Central Limit Theorem is a remarkable generalization of the Central Limit Theorem, showing that the sum of a large number of independent, identically-distributed (i.i.d) random variables with infinite variance may converge…

The Wiener index of a connected graph is defined as the sum of the distances between all unordered pair of its vertices. In this paper, we characterize the graphs which extremize the Wiener index among all graphs on $n$ vertices with $k$…

Hadwiger's theorem is a Helly-type theorem involving common transversals to families of convex sets instead of common intersections. Subsequently, Pollack and Wenger identified a necessary and sufficient condition, called a consistent…

Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem says that if there are 2n-1 number is given, then there are n numbers such that their sum is divided by n. We will connect this theorem with the Ramsey theoretic large sets and will prove an infinitary version…

We generalize the Sarkozy-Furstenberg theorem on squares in difference sets of integers, and show that, given any positive definite function f:Z_N->C with density at least r(N), where r(N)=O((\log N)^{-c}), there is a perfect square s<=N/2…

The Wigner-Eckart theorem is a well known result for tensor operators of su(2) and, more generally, any compact Lie algebra. In this paper the theorem will be generalized to the particular non-compact case of sl(2,R). In order to do so,…

Asymptotic theories on record values and times, including central limit theorems, make sense only if the sequence of records values (and of record times) is infinite. If not, such theories could not even be an option. In this paper, we give…

A seminal theorem due to Weyl states that if (a_n) is any sequence of distinct integers, then, for almost every real number x, the sequence (a_n x) is uniformly distributed modulo one. In particular, for almost every x in the unit interval,…

We show that if a sequence of dense graphs has the property that for every fixed graph F, the density of copies of F in these graphs tends to a limit, then there is a natural ``limit object'', namely a symmetric measurable 2-variable…

We consider the nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation with a short-range external potential, in a semi-classical scaling. We show that for fixed Planck constant, a com-plete scattering theory is available, showing that both the potential and…

A classical theorem of Kempner states that the sum of the reciprocals of positive integers with missing decimal digits converges. This result is extended to much larger families of "missing digits" sets of positive integers with both…

Motivated by Ziegler's computability-theoretic characterisation of finite absolute presentability between groups, we prove an analogous theorem in symbolic dynamics. We introduce the notion of one subshift being finitely determined over…

This paper gives a complete proof of a theorem of de Bruijn that classifies additive systems for the nonnegative integers, that is, families $\mca = (A_i)_{i\in I}$ of sets of nonnegative integers, each set containing 0, such that every…

In this note we show that for analytic semigroups the so-called Weiss condition of uniform boundedness of the operators $Re(\lambda)^\einhalb C(\lambda+A)^{-1}, \qquad Re(\lambda)>0$ on the complex right half plane and weak Lebesgue…

We study vectors chosen at random from a compact convex polytope in $\mathbb{R}^n$ given by a finite number of linear constraints. We determine which projections of these random vectors are asymptotically normal as $n\to\infty$. Marginal…

We study the behavior of infinite systems of coupled harmonic oscillators as t->infinity, and generalize the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) to show that their reduced Wigner distributions become Gaussian under quite general conditions. This…

We prove an intermediate value theorem of an arithmetical flavor, involving the consecutive averages of sequences with terms in a given finite set A. For every such set we completely characterize the numbers x ("intermediate values") with…
