The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the $p$-th Betti number of the \v{C}ech complex of any set of $N$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ and any radius satisfies $\beta_{p} = O(N^{m})$, with $m = \min \{ p+1, \lceil d/2 \rceil…

We provide infinitely many solutions of a Dirichlet problem on balls.

The purpose of this paper is twofold. One is to enrich from a geometrical point of view the theory of octonionic slice regular functions. We first prove a boundary Schwarz lemma for slice regular self-mappings of the open unit ball of the…

Lipschitz constants for the width and diameter functions of a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$ are found in terms of its diameter and thickness (maximum and minimum of both functions). Also, a dual approach to thickness is proposed.

We first prove a Boundary Schwarz lemma for holomorphic disks on the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Further by using a Schwarz lemma for minimal conformal disks of Forstneri\v c and Kalaj (F.~Forstneri{\v{c}} and D.~Kalaj. \newblock…

We prove a lower bound for the Cheeger constant of a cylinder $\Omega\times (0,L)$, where $\Omega$ is an open and bounded set. As a consequence, we obtain existence of minimizers for the shape functional defined as the ratio between the…

We give a curvature dependent lower bound for the filling radius of all closed Riemannian manifolds as well as an upper one for manifolds which are the total space of a Riemannian submersion. The latter applies also to the case of…

We establish sharp upper bounds on shifted moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over function fields. As an application, we prove some bounds for moments of quadratic Dirichlet character sums over function fields.

In a previous article the authors determined the best-known upper bound for the cardinality of the image set for several classes of functions, including planar functions. Here, we show that the upper bound cannot be tight for planar…

We compute the minimal cardinality of a covering (resp. an irredundant covering) of a vector space over an arbitrary field by proper linear subspaces. Analogues for affine linear subspaces are also given.

Let $A$ and $B$ be disjoint sets of sizes $a$ and $b$, respectively. Let $f(a,b)$ denote the minimum number of quadruples needed to cover all triples $T \subseteq A \cup B$ such that $|T \cap A| \geq 2$. We prove upper and lower bounds on…

In this paper we propose a new approach to least squares approximation problems. This approach is based on partitioning and Schur function. The nature of this approach is combinatorial, while most existing approaches are based on algebra…

We discuss five simple functions on finite multisets of metric spaces. The first four are all metrics iff the underlying space is bounded and are complete metrics iff it is also complete. Two of them, and the fifth function, all generalise…

We give upper and lower bounds on the spectral radius of a graph in terms of the number of walks. We generalize a number of known results.

By using elementary yet interesting observations and refining techniques used in a recent work by Fei Xue et al., we present new upper bounds for covering functionals of convex polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with few vertices. In these…

The problem of covering a region of the plane with a fixed number of minimum-radius identical balls is studied in the present work. An explicit construction of bi-Lipschitz mappings is provided to model small perturbations of the union of…

While many bounds have been proved for partial trace inequalities over the last decades for a large variety of quantities, recent problems in quantum information theory demand sharper bounds. In this work, we study optimal bounds for…

We make systematic developments on Lawson-Osserman constructions relating to the Dirichlet problem (over unit disks) for minimal surfaces of high codimension in their 1977 Acta paper. In particular, we show the existence of boundary…

We obtain an upper bound for the number of critical points of the systole function on $\mathcal{M}_g$. Besides, we obtain an upper bound for the number of those critical points whose systole is smaller than a constant.

We present a formula for the number of distinct ribbon Schur functions of given size and height.
