We compute the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(\Delta_{g, n})$ for all $g, n \geq 0$ such that $3g - 3 + n > 0$, where $\Delta_{g, n} \subset M_{g, n}^\mathrm{trop}$ is the moduli space of stable $n$-marked tropical curves of genus $g$ and…

The intersection numbers for p spin curves of the moduli space M(g,n) are considered for D type by a matrix model. The asymptotic behavior of the large genus g limit and large p limit are derived. The remarkable features of the cases of p=…

Given a finite transitive group $G\leq \operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$, a subset $\mathcal{F}$ of $G$ is \emph{intersecting} if any two elements of $\mathcal{F}$ agree on some element of $\Omega$. The \emph{intersection density} of $G$, denoted…

We provide a lower bound for the ratio between the ordinary and uniform exponent of both simultaneous Diophantine approximation and Diophantine approximation by linear forms in any dimension. This lower bound was conjectured by Schmidt and…

We study the family of intersection graphs of low density objects in low dimensional Euclidean space. This family is quite general, and includes planar graphs. We prove that such graphs have small separators. Next, we present efficient…

Suppose $g_t$ is a $1$-parameter $\mathrm{Ad}$-diagonalizable subgroup of a Lie group $G$ and $\Gamma < G$ is a lattice. We study the dimension of bounded and divergent orbits of $g_t$ emanating from a class of curves lying on leaves of the…

Let $C$ be a genus $2$ curve with Jacobian isomorphic to the square of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by a maximal order in an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant $-d<0$. We show that if the stable model of $C$ has bad…

Uniform random intersection graphs have received much interest and been used in diverse applications. A uniform random intersection graph with $n$ nodes is constructed as follows: each node selects a set of $K_n$ different items uniformly…

Let $S$ be a minimal surface of general type with irregularity $q(S) = 1$. Well-known inequalities between characteristic numbers imply that $3 p_g(S) \le c_2(S) \le 10 p_g(S)$, where $p_g(S)$ is the geometric genus and $c_2(S)$ the…

We consider a system of $N$ particles whose interactions are characterized by a (weighted) graph $G^N$. Each particle is a node of the graph with an internal state. The state changes according to Markovian dynamics that depend on the states…

The threshold degree of a function f:{0,1}^n->{-1,+1} is the least degree of a real polynomial p with f(x)=sgn p(x). We prove that the intersection of two halfspaces on {0,1}^n has threshold degree Omega(n), which matches the trivial upper…

A family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$ is $H$-intersecting if the edge intersection of any two graphs in $\mathcal{F}$ contains a copy of a fixed graph $H$. A fundamental problem is to determine the maximum size of such a family. The trivial…

A curve in the plane is $x$-monotone if every vertical line intersects it at most once. A family of curves are called pseudo-segments if every pair of them have at most one point in common. We construct $2^{\Omega(n^{4/3})}$ families, each…
