A conjecture of I. Krasikov is proved. Several discrete analogues of classical polynomial inequalities are derived, along with results which allow extensions to a class of transcendental entire functions in the Laguerre-P\'olya class.

Given a division ring K containing the field k in its center and A,B two finite subsets of K\{0}, we give some analogues of Pl\"unnecke and Kneser theorems for the dimension of the k-linear span of the Minkowski product AB in terms of the…

This paper investigates the algorithmic dimension spectra of lines in the Euclidean plane. Given any line L with slope a and vertical intercept b, the dimension spectrum sp(L) is the set of all effective Hausdorff dimensions of individual…

We say that $E$ is a microset of the compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ if there exist sequences $\lambda_n\geq 1$ and $u_n\in \mathbb{R}^d$ such that $(\lambda_n K + u_n ) \cap [0,1]^d$ converges to $E$ in the Hausdorff metric, and…

A $(d,k)$-set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ containing a $k$-dimensional unit ball of all possible orientations. Using an approach of D.~Oberlin we prove various Fourier dimension estimates for compact $(d,k)$-sets. Our main interest is in…

The restriction and Kakeya problems in Euclidean space have received much attention in the last few decades, and are related to many problems in harmonic analysis, PDE, and number theory. In this paper we initiate the study of these…

We consider subsets of the (symbolic) sequence space that are invariant under the action of the semigroup of multiplicative integers. A representative example is the collection of all 0-1 sequences $(x_k)$ such that $x_k x_{2k}=0$ for all…

We formulate an equivariant version of Greenberg's $p$-adic Artin conjecture for smoothed equivariant $p$-adic Artin $L$-functions in the context of an arbitrary one-dimensional admissible $p$-adic Lie extension of a totally real number…

This thesis investigates two problems that are discrete analogues of two harmonic analytic problems which lie in the heart of research in the field. More specifically, we consider discrete analogues of the maximal Kakeya operator conjecture…

Let H(G) be the Hecke algebra of a reductive p-adic group G. We formulate a conjecture for the ideals in the Bernstein decomposition of H(G). The conjecture says that each ideal is geometrically equivalent to an algebraic variety. Our…

In this paper we construct and study two new families of finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebras which generalize Radford's families. We show that over any infinite field which contains a primitive nth root of unity, one of the families…

Recently, Stull [18], [17] resolved a long-standing open problem posed by Lutz, on whether the set of effective Hausdorff dimensions of points on a straight line in $\mathbb{R}^2$ -- the effective dimension spectrum of the line -- contains…

The Minkowski sum and Minkowski product can be considered as the addition and multiplication of subsets of $\mathbb{R}$. If we consider a compact subset $K\subseteq[0,1]$ and a power series $f$ which is absolutely convergent on $[0,1]$,…

Let A be a subset of the real line. We study the fractal dimensions of the k-fold iterated sumsets kA, defined as kA = A+...+A (k times). We show that for any non-decreasing sequence {a_k} taking values in [0,1], there exists a compact set…

We obtain new bounds for the Kakeya maximal conjecture in most dimensions $n<100$, as well as improved bounds for the Kakeya set conjecture when $n=7$ or $9$. For this we consider Guth and Zahl's strengthened formulation of the maximal…

For a given decreasing positive real function $\psi$, let $\mathcal{A}_n(\psi)$ be the set of real numbers for which there are infinitely many integer polynomials $P$ of degree up to $n$ such that $\left\lvert P(x) \right\rvert \leq…

Let $B\subset A$ be a left or right bounded extension of finite dimensional algebras. We use the Jacobi-Zariski long nearly exact sequence to show that $B$ satisfies Han's conjecture if and only if $A$ does, regardless if the extension…

Reay's relaxed Tverberg conjecture and Conway's thrackle conjecture are open problems about the geometry of pairwise intersections. Reay asked for the minimum number of points in Euclidean d-space that guarantees any such point set admits a…

We state and prove an analogue of the Kakeya conjecture for the local field $\mathbb{F}_q(\!(t)\!)$. This extends Arsovski's result on the Kakeya conjecture to local fields of positive characteristic. We also prove the Kakeya maximal…

Let $G$ be a $p$-adic analytic pro-$p$ group of dimension $d$. We produce an approximate series which descends regularly in strata and whose terms deviate from the lower $p$-series in a uniformly bounded way. This brings to light a new set…
