We prove lower bounds on the error incurred when approximating any oscillating function using piecewise polynomial spaces. The estimates are explicit in the polynomial degree and have optimal dependence on the meshwidth and frequency when…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a set of $n=2m+1$ points in the plane in general position. We define the graph $GM_\mathcal{P}$ whose vertex set is the set of all plane matchings on $\mathcal{P}$ with exactly $m$ edges. Two vertices in…

We give lower bounds for the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue on connected graphs. These bounds depend on the extrinsic diameter of the boundary and not on the diameter of the graph. We obtain a lower bound which is sharp when the cardinal…

We define a statistical measure of the typical size of short words in a linear code over a finite field. We prove that the dual toric codes coming from polytopes of degree one are characterized, among all dual toric codes, by being extremal…

Consider the problem of constructing an experimental design, optimal for estimating parameters of a given statistical model with respect to a chosen criterion. To address this problem, the literature usually provides a single solution.…

We define a proportionally dense subgraph (PDS) as an induced subgraph of a graph with the property that each vertex in the PDS is adjacent to proportionally as many vertices in the subgraph as in the graph. We prove that the problem of…

Random hyperbolic graphs have been suggested as a promising model of social networks. A few of their fundamental parameters have been studied. However, none of them concerns their spectra. We consider the random hyperbolic graph model as…

We study the appearance of the giant component in random subgraphs of a given large finite graph G=(V,E) in which each edge is present independently with probability p. We show that if G is an expander with vertices of bounded degree, then…

For solving constrained (pseudo)-monotone variational inequality, we prove that the upper bound of stepsize $\frac{1}{2L}$ established for the Popov's algorithm and the forward-reflected-backward algorithm is tight. For unconstrained case,…

We show that the edge graph of a 6-dimensional polytope with 12 facets has diameter at most 6, thus verifying the d-step conjecture of Klee and Walkup in the case of d=6. This implies that for all pairs (d,n) with n-d \leq 6 the diameter of…

The two matrix model is considered, with measure given by the exponential of a sum of polynomials in two different variables. It is shown how to derive a sequence of pairs of ``dual'' finite size systems of ODEs for the corresponding…

Based on a novel type of Sobolev-Poincar\'e inequality (for generalised weakly differentiable functions on varifolds), we establish a finite upper bound of the geodesic diameter of generalised compact connected surfaces-with-boundary of…

We prove a tight upper bound on the independence polynomial (and total number of independent sets) of cubic graphs of girth at least 5. The bound is achieved by unions of the Heawood graph, the point/line incidence graph of the Fano plane.…

We study the problem of estimating the maximum matching size in graphs whose edges are revealed in a streaming manner. We consider both insertion-only streams and dynamic streams and present new upper and lower bound results for both…

A strict lower bound for the diameter of a symmetric graph is proposed, which is calculable with the order $n$ and other local parameters of the graph such as the degree $k\,(\geq 3)$, even girth $g\,(\geq 4)$, and number of $g$-cycles…

We consider diffraction at random point scatterers on general discrete point sets in $\R^\nu$, restricted to a finite volume. We allow for random amplitudes and random dislocations of the scatterers. We investigate the speed of convergence…

We improve upon the upper bounds for the cardinality of the value set of a multivariable polynomial map over a finite field using the polytope of the polynomial. This generalizes earlier bounds only dependent on the degree of a polynomial.

In this paper, we provide explicit lower bounds with respect to some quantities of interest (parameters of the underlying distribution, dimension, geometrical characteristics of the domain, position of the origin, etc.) on the spectral gap…

We consider the upper tail large deviations of subgraph counts for irregular graphs $\mathrm{H}$ in $\mathbb{G}(n,p)$, the sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph on $n$ vertices with edge connectivity probability $p \in (0,1)$. For $n^{-1/\Delta}…

If we fix the angles at the vertices of a convex planar $n$-gon, the lengths of its edges must satisfy two linear constraints in order for it to close up. If we also require unit perimeter, our vectors of $n$ edge lengths form a convex…
