In 1967, Schmidt wrote a seminal paper [10] on heights of subspaces of R n or C n defined over a number field K, and diophantine approximation problems. The going-down Theorem -- one of the main theorems he proved in his paper -- remains…
Let $E/F$ be a CM extension of number fields, and let $H < G$ be a unitary Gan--Gross--Prasad pair defined with respect to $E/F$ that is compact at infinity. We consider a family $\mathcal{F}$ of automorphic representations of $G \times H$…
In this article, we study the quotients of numerical semigroups, generated by two coprime positive numbers, named (a,b) over d. We give formulae for the usual invariants of these semigroups, expressed in terms of continued fraction…
Attached to a singular analytic curve germ in $d$-space is a numerical semigroup: a subset $S$ of the non-negative integers which is closed under addition and whose complement isfinite. Conversely, associated to any numerical semigroup $S$…
This paper proposes a new, visual method to study numerical semigroups and the Frobenius problem. The method is based on building a so-called reduction graph, whose nodes usually correspond to monogenic semigroups, and whose edges can have…
Let $\mathfrak{q}>2$ be a prime number, $\chi$ a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $\mathfrak{q}$ and $f$ a primitive holomorphic cusp form or a Hecke-Maass cusp form of level $\mathfrak{q}$ and trivial nebentypus. We prove the subconvex…
Inspired by the work of Bank on the hypertranscendence of $\Gamma e^h$ where $\Gamma$ is the Euler gamma function and $h$ is an entire function, we investigate when a meromorphic function $fe^g$ cannot satisfy any algebraic differential…
We study a refinement of the quantum unique ergodicity conjecture for shrinking balls on arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds, with a focus on dimensions $ 2 $ and $ 3 $. For the Eisenstein series for the modular surface $\mathrm{PSL}_2(…
We improve the previously best known lower and upper bounds on the number n_g of numerical semigroups of genus g. Starting from a known recursive description of the tree T of numerical semigroups, we analyze some of its properties and use…
We give a simple explanation of numerical experiments of V. Arnold with two sequences of symmetric numerical semigroups, S(4,6+4k,87-4k) and S(9,3+9k,85-9k) generated by three elements. We present a generalization of these sequences by…
We address a special case of a conjecture of M. Talagrand relating two notions of "threshold" for an increasing family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of a finite set $V$. The full conjecture implies equivalence of the "Fractional…
We provide new upper and lower bounds on the minimum possible ratio of the spectral and Frobenius norms of a (partially) symmetric tensor. In the particular case of general tensors our result recovers a known upper bound. For symmetric…
Let $f$ be a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ holomorphic cusp form or the Eisenstien series $E(z,1/2)$ and $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form with its Langlands parameter $\mu$ in generic position i.e. away from Weyl chamber walls and…
A fractional matching of a graph $G$ is a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow [0, 1]$ such that for any $v\in V(G)$, $\sum_{e\in E_{G}(v)}f(e)\leq1$, where $E_{G}(v)=\{e\in E(G): e~ \mbox{is incident with} ~v~\mbox{in}~G\}$.The fractional matching…
In 1951, Bang posed the affine plank conjecture, which remains open: If a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is covered by planks, then the total relative width of the planks is at least one. We prove a lower bound of $2/(1+\sqrt{d})$ for this…
Given a continuous real-valued function on [0, 1], and a closed subset E \subset [0, 1] we denote by f E the restriction of f to E, that is, the function defined only on E that takes the same values as f at every point of E >. The…
An interesting characterization of the Fibonacci numbers is that, if we write them as $F_1 = 1$, $F_2 = 2$, $F_3 = 3$, $F_4 = 5, ...$, then every positive integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. This is…
A common tool in the theory of numerical semigroups is to interpret a desired class of semigroups as the integer lattice points in a rational polyhedron in order to leverage computational and enumerative techniques from polyhedral geometry.…
We derive a lower bound for the subword complexity of the base-$b$ expansion ($b\geq 2$) of all real numbers whose irrationality exponent is equal to 2. This provides a generalization of a theorem due to Ferenczi and Mauduit. As a…
We show that if $f:X\to Y$ is a quasisymmetric mapping between Ahlfors regular spaces, then $\dim_H f(E)\leq\dim_H E$ for "almost every" bounded Ahlfors regular set $E\subseteq X$. If additionally, $X$ and $Y$ are Loewner spaces then…
