We consider a real random variable X represented through a random pair of real random variables (R,T) and a deterministic function u as X=Ru(T). Under some additional assumptions, we prove a limit theorem for (R,T) given X>x, as x tends to…

Let $V\subset\R^m$ be a centrally symmetric convex body and let $V^*\subset\R^m$ be its polar. We prove limit relations between the sharp constants in the multivariate Markov-Bernstein-Nikolskii type inequalities for algebraic polynomials…

This work advances knowledge of the threshold of prox-boundedness of a function; an important concern in the use of proximal point optimization algorithms and in determining the existence of the Moreau envelope of the function. In finite…

We give a simple proof of the matrix Spencer conjecture up to poly-logarithmic rank: given symmetric $d \times d$ matrices $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ each with $\|A_i\|_{\mathsf{op}} \leq 1$ and rank at most $n/\log^3 n$, one can efficiently find…

We give an explicit construction of linearly independent families of knots arbitrarily deep in the (n)-solvable filtration of the knot concordance group using the \rho^1-invariant. A difference between previous constructions of infinite…

This paper concerns twisted signature invariants of knots and 3-manifolds. In the fibered case, we reduce the computation of these invariants to the study of the intersection form and monodromy on the twisted homology of the fiber surface.…

The distribution of the sum of 1-dependent lattice vectors with supports on coordinate axes is approximated by a multivariate compound Poisson distribution and by signed compound Poisson measure. The local and $\ell_\alpha$-norms are used…

We find that Alexander polynomial of a ribbon knot in $ \mathbb{Z}HS^3 $ is determined by the intrinsic singularity information of its ribbon, and give a formula to calculate Alexander polynomial of a ribbon knot by that. We define half…

The purpose of this article is to give a preliminary clarification on the relation between crossing number and crossing change. With a main focus on the span of X polynomial, we prove that, as our theorem claims, the crossing number of the…

Let $V(T)$ denote the number of sign changes in $\psi(x) - x$ for $x\in[1, T]$. We show that $\liminf_{\;T\rightarrow\infty} V(T)/\log T \geq \gamma_{1}/\pi + 1.867\cdot 10^{-30}$, where $\gamma_{1} = 14.13\ldots$ denotes the ordinate of…

We prove that the Laurent polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[q^{\pm 1}]$ that is the top coefficient of the Links-Gould invariant of the boundary of a Seifert surface is multiplicative under plumbing of surfaces. We deduce that the Links-Gould…

We prove a polynomial upper bound for the localization length of the Lorentz mirror model and the Manhattan model on the even cylinder. The main input is a conditional cylinder-localization theorem in the winding regime: if short-direction…

We define a multi-variable version of the Affine Index Polynomial for virtual links. This invariant reduces to the original Affine Index Polynomial in the case of virtual knots, and also generalizes the version for compatible virtual links…

We investigate the signed support, that is, the set of the exponent vectors and the signs of the coefficients, of a multivariate polynomial $f$. We describe conditions on the signed support ensuring that the semi-algebraic set, denoted as…

In recent years, twisted Alexander polynomial has been playing an important role in low-dimensional topology. For Montesinos links, we develop an efficient method to compute the twisted Alexander polynomial associated to any linear…

The rigidity of a matrix describes the minimal number of entries one has to change to reduce matrix's rank to r. We give very simple combinatorial proof of the lower bound for the rigidity of Sylvester (special case of Hadamard) matrix that…

We establish a version of the Pommerenke-Levin-Yoccoz inequality for the modulus of a polynomial-like restriction of a global polynomial and give two applications. First it is shown that if the modulus of a polynomial-like restriction of an…

We establish that the limiting spectral distribution of a block-rescaled empirical covariance matrix is an arcsine law when the ratio between the dimension and the underlying sample size converges to 1 and when the samples corresponding to…

We give a characterization for the Alexander Polynomials of closed orientable 3-manifolds M with first Betti number 1, as well as some partial results for the characterization problem for M having first Betti number > 1. We first prove an…

Recently, Bigelow defined a diagrammatic method for calculating the Alexander polynomial of a knot or link by resolving crossings in a planar algebra. I will present my multivariate version of Bigelow's calculation. The advantage to my…
