In a previous work, Bettin, Koukoulopoulos, and Sanna prove that if two sets of natural numbers $A$ and $B$ have natural density $1$, then their product set $A \cdot B := \{ab : a \in A, b \in B\}$ also has natural density $1$. They also…
We study the asymptotics of large simple graphs constrained by the limiting density of edges and the limiting subgraph density of an arbitrary fixed graph $H$. We prove that, for all but finitely many values of the edge density, if the…
Let v be a multiplicative arithmetic function with support of positive asymptotic density. We prove that for any not identically zero arithmetic function f such that \sum_{f(n) \neq 0} 1 / n < \infty, the support of the Dirichlet…
Let $K$ be a number field, $k\geq 2$ an integer, $(K^*)^k$ the $k$-fold direct product of $K^*$ with coordinatewise multiplication, and $\Gamma$ a finitely generated subgroup of rank $r$ of $(K^*)^k$. Further, let $H(\alpha )$ denote the…
In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes with positive relative density $\delta$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density $C_1\delta e^{-C_2(\log(1/\delta))^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\delta))^{1/3}}$ in $\mathbb{N}$. Our…
Let $f(t_1,\ldots,t_n)$ be a nondegenerate integral quadratic form. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the function $D_f(X)$, the number of integers of absolute value up to $X$ represented by $f$. When $f$ is isotropic or $n$ is at least…
Let (lambda_d)(p) be the p monomer-dimer entropy on the d-dimensional integer lattice Z^d, where p in [0,1] is the dimer density. We give upper and lower bounds for (lambda_d)(p) in terms of expressions involving (lambda_(d-1))(q). The…
Two infinite sets $A$ and $B$ of non-negative integers are called \emph{perfect additive complements of non-negative integers}, if every non-negative integer can be uniquely expressed as the sum of elements from $A$ and $B$. In this paper,…
We show that in a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ of positive entropy there exist proper (positively) asymptotic pairs, that is, pairs $(x,y)$ such that $x\not= y$ and $\lim_{n\to +\infty} d(T^n x,T^n y)=0$. More precisely we consider…
We prove that finite sets of real numbers satisfying $|AA| \leq |A|^{1+\epsilon}$ with sufficiently small $\epsilon > 0$ cannot have small additive bases nor can they be written as a set of sums $B+C$ with $|B|, |C| \geq 2$. The result can…
Sparse representation over redundant dictionaries constitutes a good model for many classes of signals (e.g., patches of natural images, segments of speech signals, etc.). However, despite its popularity, very little is known about the…
For parameters $n,\delta,B,C$, we obtained a sharp asymptotic formula for the number of $(n+\lfloor n^\delta\rfloor)^2$-dimensional binary contingency tables with non-uniform margins taking values of $\lfloor BCn\rfloor$ and $\lfloor…
Let $A,B$ be sets of positive integers such that $A+B$ contains all but finitely many positive integers. S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi proved that if $ A(x)B(x)/x \to 1$, then $A(x)B(x)-x \to \infty $. Chen and Fang considerably improved…
We present an explicit subset $A\subseteq \mathbb{N} = \{0,1,\ldots\}$ such that $A + A = \mathbb{N}$ and for all $\varepsilon > 0$, \[\lim_{N\to \infty}\frac{\big|\big\{(n_1,n_2): n_1 + n_2 = N, (n_1,n_2)\in…
It is shown that the following holds for each $\varepsilon >0$. For $G$ an $n$-vertex graph of maximum degree $D$, lists $S_v$ of size $D+1$ (for $v\in V(G)$), and $L_v$ chosen uniformly from the ($(1+\varepsilon)\ln n$)-subsets of $S_v$…
Let $\mathbb{N}$ denote the set of all nonnegative integers and $A$ be a subset of $\mathbb{N}$. Let $h\geq2$ and let $r_h(A,n)=\sharp \{ (a_1,\ldots,a_h)\in A^{h}: a_1+\cdots+a_h=n\}.$ The set $A$ is called an asymptotic basis of order $h$…
If $A$ is a nonempty subset of an additive group $G$, then the $h$-fold sumset is \[ hA = \{x_1 + \cdots + x_h : x_i \in A_i \text{ for } i=1,2,\ldots, h\}. \] The set $A$ is an $(r,\ell)$-approximate group in $G$ if $A$ is a nonempty…
Unextendible sets of Mutually Unbiased Bases (MUBs) are examined from the point of view of complementary subalgebras. We show, that the linear span of less than $d+1$ factors of $M_d \otimes M_d$ does not contain pure states, and therefore…
We show that if $\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_k$ are algebraic numbers, then $$|A+\lambda_1\cdot A+\dots+\lambda_k\cdot A|\geq H(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_k)|A|-o(|A|)$$ for all finite subsets $A$ of $\mathbb{C}$, where…
We improve by an exponential factor the best known asymptotic upper bound for the density of sets avoiding 1 in Euclidean space. This result is obtained by a combination of an analytic bound that is an analogue of Lovasz theta number and of…
