Let $f$ be a nonnegative function supported on $(-1/4, 1/4)$. We show $$ \sup_{x \in \mathbb{R}}{\int_{\mathbb{R}}{f(t)f(x-t)dt}} \geq 1.28\left(\int_{-1/4}^{1/4}{f(x)dx} \right)^2,$$ where 1.28 improves on a series of earlier results. The…

We show that for a subset $A$ of the cyclic group of prime order $p>3$, if the sumset $A+A-2A$ is not the whole group, then $|A|\le \frac27\,p$. Besides combinatorial arguments, we utilize a general technique involving linear programming.

A set of integers $S \subset \mathbb{N}$ is an $\alpha$-strong Sidon set if the pairwise sums of its elements are far apart by a certain measure depending on $\alpha$, more specifically if $| (x+w) - (y+z) | \geq \max \{…

We prove that a finite set of natural numbers $J$ satisfies that $J\cup\{0\}$ is not Sidon if and only if for any operator $T$, the disjoint hypercyclicity of $\{T^j:j\in J\}$ implies that $T$ is weakly mixing. As an application we show the…

We prove that maximal cardinality of the Sidon set from $[n]$ exceeds $\sqrt{n}

We show that as in the case of n- fold Cartesian product for n greater than or equal to 4, even in 3-fold Cartesian product, a related component of a good set need not be a full component.

In this paper, we first study derivations in non nilpotent Lie triple algebras. We determine the structure of derivation algebra according to whether the algebra admits an idempotent or a pseudo-idempotent. We study the multiplicative…

We give an example of a division ring $D$ whose multiplicative commutator subgroup does not generate $D$ as a vector space over its centre, thus disproving the conjecture posed in the paper "Vector space generated by the multiplicative…

In earlier papers, we showed a decomposition of the arcs of 2-diregular digraphs (2-dds) and used it to prove some conditions for these graphs to be non-Hamiltonian; we then extended this decomposition to a larger class of digraphs and used…

Let $d \geq 3$ be a natural number. We show that for all finite, non-empty sets $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ that are not contained in a translate of a hyperplane, we have \[ |A-A| \geq (2d-2)|A| - O_d(|A|^{1- \delta}),\] where $\delta >0$ is…

This paper is mainly concerned with sets which do not contain four-term arithmetic progressions, but are still very rich in three term arithmetic progressions, in the sense that all sufficiently large subsets contain at least one such…

A subset of the Cantor cube is null-additive if its algebraic sum with any null set is null. We construct a set of cardinality continuum such that: all continuous images of the set into the Cantor cube are null-additive, it contains a…

The aim of this paper is to present a complete description of the structure of subsets S of an orderable group G satisfying |S^2| = 3|S|-2 and <S> is non-abelian.

We prove that if $A\subseteq \{1,\dots,N\}$ does not contain any non-trivial three-term arithmetic progression, then $$|A|\ll \frac{(\log\log N)^{3+o(1)}}{\log N}N\,.$$

We introduce the theory of div point sets, which aims to provide a framework to study the combinatoric nature of any set of points in general position on an Euclidean plane. We then show that proving the unsatisfiability of some first-order…

Let J and J' be Jordan rings. We prove under some conditions that if J contains a nontrivial idempotent, then n-multiplicative maps and n-multiplicative derivations from J to J' are additive maps.

Fix $\alpha \in (0,1/3)$. We show that, from a topological point of view, almost all sets $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ have the property that, if $A^\prime=A$ for all but $o(n^{\alpha})$ elements, then $A^\prime$ is not a nontrivial sumset…

We construct large subsets of the first $N$ positive integers which avoid certain arithmetic configurations. In particular, we construct a set of order $N^{0.7685}$ lacking the configuration $\{x,x+y,x+y^2\},$ surpassing the $N^{3/4}$ limit…

A subset $S$ of real numbers is called bi-Sidon if it is a Sidon set with respect to both addition and multiplication, i.e., if all pairwise sums and all pairwise products of elements of $S$ are distinct. Imre Ruzsa asked the following…

A finite set of integers $A$ is a sum-dominant (also called an More Sums Than Differences or MSTD) set if $|A+A| > |A-A|$. While almost all subsets of $\{0, \dots, n\}$ are not sum-dominant, interestingly a small positive percentage are. We…
