In this paper, we develop new ideas regarding the finitistic dimension conjecture, or the findim conjecture for short. Specifically, we improve upon the delooping level by introducing three new invariants called the effective delooping…
A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s states that for any infinite set $A \subseteq \mathbb R$, there exists $E \subseteq \mathbb R$ of positive Lebesgue measure that does not contain any nontrivial affine copy of $A$. The conjecture remains open for…
Two conjectures are presented. The first, Conjecture 1, is that the pushforward of a geometric distribution on the integers under $n$ Collatz iterates, modulo $2^p$, is usefully close to uniform distribution on the integers modulo $2^p$, if…
We prove an analogue of the Manin-Mumford conjecture for polynomial dynamical systems over number fields. In our setting the role of torsion points is taken by the small orbit of a point $\alpha$. The small orbit of a point was introduced…
Dimensional analysis shows that the speed of light and Newton's constant of gravitation can be combined to define a quantity $F_* = {c^4\over G_N}$ with the dimensions of force (equivalently, tension). Then in any physical situation we must…
In this paper we prove an upper bound on the "size" of the set of multiplicatively $\psi$-approximable points in $\mathbb R^d$ for $d>1$ in terms of $f$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. This upper bound exactly complements the known lower…
This short communication advances the hypothesis that the observed fractal structure of large-scale distribution of galaxies is due to a geometrical effect, which arises when observational quantities relevant for the characterization of a…
In this article we prove the explicit Mordell Conjecture for large families of curves. In addition, we introduce a method, of easy application, to compute all rational points on curves of quite general shape and increasing genus. The method…
An upper bound on the ergodic capacity of {\bf MIMO} channels was introduced recently in arXiv:0903.1952. This upper bound amounts to the maximization on the simplex of some multilinear polynomial $p(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_n)$ with…
In these lecture notes, we present a connection between the complex dynamics of a family of rational functions $f_t: \mathbb{P}^1\to \mathbb{P}^1$, parameterized by $t$ in a Riemann surface $X$, and the arithmetic dynamics of $f_t$ on…
The notion of first order convergence of graphs unifies the notions of convergence for sparse and dense graphs. Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and Ossona de Mendez [J. Symbolic Logic 84 (2019), 452-472] proved that every first order convergent sequence…
We present two extensions of the linear bound, due to Marcus and Tardos, on the number of 1's in an n by n 0-1 matrix avoiding a fixed permutation matrix. We first extend the linear bound to hypergraphs with ordered vertex sets and, using…
We establish several new fractal and number theoretical phenomena connected with expansions which are generated by infinite linear iterated function systems. First of all we show that the systems $\Phi$ of cylinders of generalized L\"uroth…
We affirmatively resolve the energy image density conjecture of Bouleau and Hirsch (1986). Beyond the original framework of Dirichlet structures, we establish the energy image density property in several related settings. In particular, we…
We establish strong mixing for the $\mathbb Z^d$-periodic, infinite horizon, Lorentz gas flow for continuous observables with compact support. The essential feature of this natural class of observables is that their support may contain…
We prove the $l^2$ Decoupling Conjecture for compact hypersurfaces with positive definite second fundamental form and also for the cone. This has a wide range of important consequences. One of them is the validity of the Discrete…
Let $f:\, S \to B$ be a locally non-trivial relatively minimal fibration of hyperelliptic curves of genus $g\geq 2$ with relative irregularity $q_f$. We show a sharp lower bound on the slope $\lambda_f$ of $f$. As a consequence, we prove a…
Given an alphabet $S$, we consider the size of the subsets of the full sequence space $S^{\rm {\bf Z}}$ determined by the additional restriction that $x_i\not=x_{i+f(n)},\ i\in {\rm {\bf Z}},\ n\in {\rm {\bf N}}.$ Here $f$ is a positive,…
This paper presents empirical evidence supporting Goldfeld's conjecture on the average analytic rank of a family of quadratic twists of a fixed elliptic curve in the function field setting. In particular, we consider representatives of the…
We offer a new proof of Furstenberg and Katznelson's density version of the Hales-Jewett Theorem: For any $\delta > 0$ there is some $N_0 \geq 1$ such that whenever $A \subseteq [k]^N$ with $N \geq N_0$ and $|A|\geq \delta k^N$, $A$…
