We conjecture a formula for the Schur index of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories coupled to $(2,2)$ surface defects in terms of the $2d$-$4d$ BPS spectrum in the Coulomb phase of the theory. The key ingredient in our conjecture is a…
Since ancient times mathematicians consider geometrical objects with integral side lengths. We consider plane integral point sets $\mathcal{P}$, which are sets of $n$ points in the plane with pairwise integral distances where not all the…
We show that if $(X,T)$ is an extension of an aperiodic subshift (a subsystem of $({1,2,...,l}^{\mathbb{Z}},\mathrm{shift})$ for some $l\in\mathbb{N}$) and has mean dimension $mdim(X,T)<\frac{D}{2}$ $(D\in \mathbb{N}$), then it embeds…
The spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian on conical layers is analysed through two aspects: the infiniteness of the discrete eigenvalues and their expansions in the small aperture limit. On the one hand, we prove that, for any aperture, the…
Let $0<m<n$ be integers, and let $K_w$ denote the completion of a number field $K$ at a non-trivial place $w$. For each non-zero $\textbf{u}\in K_w^n$, let $\omega_{m-1}(\textbf{u})$ denote the exponent of best approximation to $\textbf{u}$…
The Erd\H os unit distance conjecture in the plane says that the number of pairs of points from a point set of size $n$ separated by a fixed (Euclidean) distance is $\leq C_{\epsilon} n^{1+\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$. The best known…
An LDB division algebra is a triple $(A,\star,\bullet)$ in which $\star$ and $\bullet$ are regular bilinear laws on the finite-dimensional non-zero vector space $A$ such that $x \star (x \bullet y)$ is a scalar multiple of $y$ for all…
Ingrid Carbone introduced the notion of so-called LS-sequences of points, which are obtained by a generalization of Kakutani's interval splitting procedure. Under an appropriate choice of the parameters $L$ and $S$, such sequences have low…
In this paper we show that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of singular pairs is 4/3. We also show that the action of diag(e^t,e^t,e^{-2t}) on SL(3,R)/SL(3,Z) admits divergent trajectories that exit to infinity at arbitrarily slow…
For $d\ge 3$ we first show that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of $A$-divergent on average points in the $(d-1)$-dimensional closed horosphere in the space of $d$-dimensional Euclidean lattices, where $A$ is the group of positive…
We show that for every $\alpha > 0$, there exist $n$-point metric spaces (X,d) where every "scale" admits a Euclidean embedding with distortion at most $\alpha$, but the whole space requires distortion at least $\Omega(\sqrt{\alpha \log…
We establish upper bounds for the size of two-distance sets in Euclidean space and spherical two-distance sets. The main recipe for obtaining upper bounds is the spectral method. We construct Seidel matrices to encode the distance relations…
For a set of positive integers $D$, a $k$-term $D$-diffsequence is a sequence of positive integers $a_1<a_2<\cdots<a_k$ such that $a_i-a_{i-1}\in D$ for $i=2,3,\cdots,k$. For $k\in\mathbb{Z}^+$ and $D\subset \mathbb{Z}^+$, we define…
Polar slice sampling, a Markov chain construction for approximate sampling, performs, under suitable assumptions on the target and initial distribution, provably independent of the state space dimension. We extend the aforementioned result…
In this note we introduce a notion of dichotomy which generalizes the classical concept of exponential dichotomy and the recent notion of Bohl dichotomy. A key attribute is the discussion of the sets of subspaces of the state space on which…
We prove that the abundance conjecture for non-uniruled klt pairs in dimension $n$ implies the abundance conjecture for uniruled klt pairs in dimension $n$, assuming the Minimal Model Program in lower dimensions.
We study the Lane-Emden conjecture, which asserts the non-existence of non-trivial, non-negative solutions to the Lane-Emden system \[ -\Delta u = v^p, \quad -\Delta v = u^q, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^n\] in the subcritical regime. By…
Line systems passing through the origin of the $d$ dimensional Euclidean space admitting exactly two distinct angles are called biangular. It is shown that the maximum cardinality of biangular lines is at least $2(d-1)(d-2)$, and this…
We show analytically that the $[0,1]$, $[1,1]$ and $[2,1]$ Pad{\'e} approximants of the mean cluster number $S(p)$ for site and bond percolation on general $d$-dimensional lattices are upper bounds on this quantity in any Euclidean…
In this paper and a companion paper, we prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as…
