We prove that for a continuum $K\subset \mathbb R^n$ the sum $K^{+n}$ of $n$ copies of $K$ has non-empty interior in $\mathbb R^n$ if and only if $K$ is not flat in the sense that the affine hull of $K$ coincides with $\mathbb R^n$.…
We continue our study of intermediate sums over polyhedra, interpolating between integrals and discrete sums, which were introduced by A. Barvinok [Computing the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex, Math. Comp. 75 (2006),…
We observe that the classical Borsuk-Ulam theorem has an easy generalization to maps from an n-manifold M^n to R^n. We point out a geometric corollary.
Let $\Gamma\subset\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ be a Fuchsian subgroup of the first kind acting on the upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$. Consider the $d_{2k}$-dimensional space of cusp forms $\mathcal{S}_{2k}^{\Gamma}$ of weight $2k$ for…
Very recently, E. H. Lieb and J. P. Solovej stated a conjecture about the constant of embedding between two Bergman spaces of the upper-half plane. A question in relation with a Werhl-type entropy inequality for the affine $AX+B$ group.…
In 2008, Bukh, Matousek, and Nivasch conjectured that for every n-point set S in R^d and every k, 0 <= k <= d-1, there exists a k-flat f in R^d (a "centerflat") that lies at "depth" (k+1) n / (k+d+1) - O(1) in S, in the sense that every…
Within the gossamer numbers which extend the real numbers to include infinitesimals and infinities we prove the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). Riemann sums are also considered in the gossamer number system, and their non-uniqueness…
The classical Sturm-Hurwitz-Kellogg theorem asserts that a function, orthogonal to an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle, has at least n+1 sign changes. We prove the converse: given an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle and…
The classical Steinitz theorem states that if the origin belongs to the interior of the convex hull of a set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, then there are at most $2d$ points of $S$ whose convex hull contains the origin in the interior.…
For a finite group $H$ and connected topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ such that $X$ is endowed with a free left $H$-action $\tau$, we provide a geometric condition in terms of the existence of a commutative diagram of spaces (arising from the…
This paper gives two different proofs to a structural theorem of decreasing minimization (lexicographic optimization) on integrally convex sets. The theorem states that the set of decreasingly minimal elements of an integrally convex set…
Let $A$ be a finite subset of an abelian group $G$, and suppose that $|A+A|\leq K|A|$. We show that for any $\epsilon>0$, there exists a constant $C_\epsilon$ such that $A$ can be covered by at most $\exp(C_\epsilon \log(2K)^{1+\epsilon})$…
Let $\{H_{n,m}\}_{n,m\in \mathbb{N}}$ be the two dimensional Haar system and $S_{n,m}f$ be the rectangular partial sums of its Fourier series with respect to some $f\in L^1([0,1)^2)$. Let $\mathcal{N}, \mathcal{M}\subset \mathbb{N}$ be two…
The Theorem on Invariance of Domain due to L.E.J. Brouwer states that one connected, compact (Hausdorff) m-dimensional manifold embedded into another actually realizes a homeomorphism. This fundamental result is relevant to Functional…
We consider spaces with free involutions that satisfy the Borsuk - Ulam theorems (BUT-spaces). There are several equivalent definitions for BUT-spaces that can be considered as their properties. Our main technical tool is Yang's…
Freiman's $3k-4$ Theorem states that if a subset $A$ of $k$ integers has a Minkowski sum $A+A$ of size at most $3k-4$, then it must be contained in a short arithmetic progression. We prove a function field analogue that is also a…
Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields and $\textrm{U}_{2r+1}$ be the unitary group associated with $E/F$. We prove the following local converse theorem for $\textrm{U}_{2r+1}$: given two irreducible generic supercuspidal…
In 1971 Cusick proved that every real number $x\in[0,1]$ can be expressed as a sum of two continued fractions with no partial quotients equal to $1$. In other words, if we define a set $$ S(k):= \{ x\in[0,1] : a_n(x) \geq k \text{ for all }…
We prove an approximate functional equation for the central value of the L-series attached to an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation of GL(m) over a number field with unitary central character. We investigate the decay rate of…
We explore emerging relationships between the Gromov--Hausdorff distance, Borsuk--Ulam theorems, and Vietoris--Rips simplicial complexes. The Gromov--Hausdorff distance between two metric spaces $X$ and~$Y$ can be lower bounded by the…
