This work reports femtoscopic correlations of p$-$p ($\bar{\rm p}-\bar{\rm p}$) and p$-$d ($\bar{\rm p}-\bar{\rm d}$) pairs measured in Pb$-$Pb collisions at center-of-mass energy per nucleon $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV in the ALICE…

We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathbb{M}$ associated to averages along families of finite type curves in the plane, defined by $$\mathbb{M}f(x) \, := \, \sup_{1 \leq t \leq 2} \left|\int_{\mathbb{C}} f(x-ty) \,…

We prove an analogue of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem for intersecting sets of permutations in finite 2-transitive groups. Given a finite group G acting faithfully and 2-transitively on the set X, we show that an intersecting set…

Consider a pair of sparse correlated stochastic block models $\mathcal S(n,\tfrac{\lambda}{n},\epsilon;s)$ subsampled from a common parent stochastic block model with two symmetric communities, average degree $\lambda=O(1)$, divergence…

We consider quenched critical percolation on a supercritical Galton--Watson tree with either finite variance or $\alpha$-stable offspring tails for some $\alpha \in (1,2)$. We show that the GHP scaling limit of a quenched critical…

Gyarmati, Mauduit and S\'ark\"ozy introduced the \textit{cross-correlation measure} $\Phi_k(\mathcal{F})$ to measure the randomness of families of binary sequences $\mathcal{F} \subset \{-1,1\}^N$. In this paper we study the order of…

Corner percolation is a dependent bond percolation model on Z^2 introduced by B\'alint T\'oth, in which each vertex has exactly two incident edges, perpendicular to each other. G\'abor Pete has proven in 2008 that under the maximal entropy…

For integers $n\ge s\ge2$, let $e(n,s)$ denote the maximum size of a family $\F\subseteq2^{[n]}$ with no $s$ pairwise disjoint members. The problem of determining $e(n,s)$, now called the Erd\H{o}s--Kleitman problem, is the non-uniform…

We show that for any prime odd integer $d$, there exists a correlation of size $\Theta(r)$ that can robustly self-test a maximally entangled state of dimension $4d-4$, where $r$ is the smallest multiplicative generator of…

Let $\core G$ and $\corona G$ denote the intersection and the union, respectively, of all maximum independent sets of a graph $G$. A graph is called \emph{$2$-bicritical} if $\a{N(S)}>\a S$ for every nonempty independent set $S$.…

In 1987, Frankl proved an influential stability result for the Erd\H os--Ko--Rado theorem, which bounds the size of an intersecting family in terms of its distance from the nearest (subset of) star or trivial intersecting family. It is a…

We consider Bernoulli first-passage percolation on the triangular lattice in which sites have 0 and 1 passage times with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. For each $p\in(0,p_c)$, let $\mathcal {B}(p)$ be the limit shape in the…

Robust sunflowers are a generalization of combinatorial sunflowers that have applications in monotone circuit complexity, DNF sparsification, randomness extractors, and recent advances on the Erd\H{o}s-Rado sunflower conjecture. The recent…

Fix a prime number $p$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of characteristic coprime to 2, 3, and $p$, which also contains the primitive $p$-th root of unity $\mu_p$. Based on the works by Swinnerton-Dyer and Klagsbrun, Mazur, and Rubin,…

Let $p\ge 5$ be a prime, and let $f$ be a cuspidal eigenform of weight at least $2$ and level coprime to $p$ of finite slope $\alpha$. Let $\bar{\rho}_f$ denote the mod $p$ Galois representation associated with $f$ and $\omega$ the mod $p$…

We make some progress on a question of Babai from the 1970s, namely: for $n, k \in \mathbb{N}$ with $k \le n/2$, what is the largest possible cardinality $s(n,k)$ of an intersecting family of $k$-element subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$…

We consider uniform random permutations in classes having a finite combinatorial specification for the substitution decomposition. These classes include (but are not limited to) all permutation classes with a finite number of simple…

Bootstrap percolation is a cellular automaton modelling the spread of an `infection' on a graph. In this note, we prove a family of lower bounds on the critical probability for $r$-neighbour bootstrap percolation on Galton--Watson trees in…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We attach appropriate signed Selmer groups to an elliptic curve $E$, where $E$ is assumed to have semistable reduction at all primes above $p$. We then compare the Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants of these signed Selmer…

In this paper, we confirm some congruences conjectured by V.J.W. Guo and M.J. Schlosser recently. For example, we show that for primes $p>3$, $$…
