We prove a lower bound expansion on the probability that a random $\pm 1$ matrix is singular, and conjecture that such expansions govern the actual probability of singularity. These expansions are based on naming the most likely, second…

A celebrated unresolved conjecture of Peter Frankl states that every finite union-closed collection of sets ($B$), with non-empty universe, admits an abundant element. The best result in the literature states that if $|B|=n$, then there…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $c > 0$ such that for every $$a_0,a_1, \ldots,a_n \in [1,M]\,, \qquad 1 \leq M \leq \frac 14 \exp \left( \frac n9 \right)\,,$$ there are $$b_0,b_1,\ldots,b_n \in \{-1,0,1\}$$ such that the…

The purpose of this article is to show uniqueness theorems for meromorphic mappings of C^m to CP^n with few hyperplanes H_j, j=1,...,q. It is well known that uniqueness theorems hold for q \geq 3n+2. In this paper we show that for every…

The number of clusters per site $n(p)$ in percolation at the critical point $p = p_c$ is not itself a universal quantity---it depends upon the lattice and percolation type (site or bond). However, many of its properties, including…

Let ${\mathcal{P}_{n}}$ denote the set of positive integers which are prime to $n$. Let $B_{n}$ be the $n$-th Bernoulli number. For any prime $p\ge 5$ and $r\ge 2$, we prove that \begin{equation} \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix}…

We derive a lower bound on the smallest singular value of a random $d$-regular matrix, that is, the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed graph. More precisely, let $C_1<d< c_1 n/\log^2 n$ and let $\mathcal{M}_{n,d}$ be the set…

Carath\'eodory showed that $n$ complex numbers $c_1,...,c_n$ can uniquely be written in the form $c_p=\sum_{j=1}^m \rho_j {\epsilon_j}^p$ with $p=1,...,n$, where the $\epsilon_j$s are different unimodular complex numbers, the $\rho_j$s are…

In this note, we show how to provide sharp control on the least singular value of a certain translated linearization matrix arising in the study of the local universality of products of independent random matrices. This problem was first…

Let $\gamma_{n}= O (\log^{-c}n)$ and let $\nu$ be the infinite product measure whose $n$-th marginal is Bernoulli$(1/2+\gamma_{n})$. We show that $c=1/2$ is the threshold, above which $\nu$-almost every point is simply Poisson generic in…

We prove that the maximum determinant of an $n \times n $ matrix, with entries in $\{0,1\}$ and at most $n+k$ non-zero entries, is at most $2^{k/3}$, which is best possible when $k$ is a multiple of 3. This result solves a conjecture of…

The Bernoulli sieve is the infinite "balls-in-boxes" occupancy scheme with random frequencies $P_k=W_1...W_{k-1}(1-W_k)$, where $(W_k)_{k\in\mn}$ are independent copies of a random variable $W$ taking values in $(0,1)$. Assuming that the…

Consider the random bipartite Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graph $\mathbb{G}(n, m, p)$, where each edge with one vertex in $V_{1}=[n]$ and the other vertex in $V_{2} =[m]$ is connected with probability $p$, and $n=\lfloor \gamma m\rfloor$ for a…

This paper studies sparse elliptic random matrix models which generalize both the classical elliptic ensembles and sparse i.i.d. matrix models by incorporating correlated entries and a tunable sparsity parameter $p_n$. Each $n\times n$…

A combinatorial rectangle may be viewed as a matrix whose entries are all +-1. The discrepancy of an m by n matrix is the maximum among the absolute values of its m row sums and n column sums. In this paper, we investigate combinatorial…

This work examines various statistical distributions in connection with random Vandermonde matrices and their extension to $d$--dimensional phase distributions. Upper and lower bound asymptotics for the maximum singular value are found to…

Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent rows $R_1(A),\dots,R_n(A)$, and assume that for any $i\leq n$ and any three-dimensional linear subspace $F\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ the orthogonal projection of $R_i(A)$ onto $F$ has…

Let $A = (a_{ij})$ be a square $n\times n$ matrix with i.i.d. zero mean and unit variance entries. Rudelson and Vershynin showed that the upper bound for a smallest singular value $s_n(A)$ is of order $n^{-\frac12}$ with probability close…

The work considers an equivalence relation in the set of all $n\times m$ matrices with entries in the set $[p]=\{ 0,1,\ldots , p-1 \}$. In each element of the factor-set generated by this relation, we define the concept of canonical matrix,…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime. For any $m\geq 1$, there exist infinitely many $n$ such that $p_{n}-p_{n-m}\leq C_m$ for some large constant $C_m>0$, and $$p_{n+1}-p_n\geq \frac{c_m\log n\log\log n\log\log\log\log n}{\log\log\log n}, $$…
