We provide upper bounds on the density of a symmetric generalized arithmetic progression lacking nonzero elements of the form h(n) for natural numbers n, or h(p) with p prime, for appropriate polynomials h with integer coefficients. The…
Inspired by the Croot-Lev-Pach breakthrough, Jordan Ellenberg and Dion Gijswijt have recently amazed the combinatorial world by proving that the largest size of a subset of $F_3^n$ with no 3-term arithmetic progressions is exponentially…
We generalize and improve results of Andrews, Gravner, Holroyd, Liggett, and Romik on metastability thresholds for generalized two-dimensional bootstrap percolation models, and answer several of their open problems and conjectures.…
Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a collection of 3-element subsets $S$ of $\{1, \ldots,n\}$ with the property that if $i<j<k$ and $a<b<c$ are two 3-element subsets in $S$, then there exists an integer sequence $x_1 < x_2 < \cdots < x_n$ such that $x_i,…
If $a$ and $b$ are integers with $b>a>1$, we completely characterize ``long'' arithmetic progressions in the sumsets of the geometric progressions $1, a, a^2, a^3, \ldots$ and $1, b, b^2, b^3, \ldots$. Our proofs utilize recent applications…
Recently, Croot, Lev, and Pach (Ann. of Math., 185:331--337, 2017.) and Ellenberg and Gijswijt (Ann. of Math., 185:339--443, 2017.) developed a new polynomial method and used it to prove upper bounds for three-term arithmetic progression…
In this paper we extend some set theoretic concepts of numerical semigroups for arbitrary sub-semigroups of natural numbers. Then we characterized gapsets which leads to a more efficient computational approach towards numerical semigroups…
We obtain polynomial decay rates for $C_{0}$-semigroups, assuming that the resolvent grows polynomially at infinity in the complex right half-plane. Our results do not require the semigroup to be uniformly bounded, and for unbounded…
I show that a trivial modification of a standard proof of the Roth's Theorem on triples in arithmetic progression would lead to the following Theorem: If A is a "large set" that is its elements are monotone increasing integers and the sum…
B. Green and T. Tao have recently proved that 'the set of primes contains arbitrary long arithmetic progressions', answering to an old question with a remarkably simple formulation. The proof does not use any "transcendental" method and any…
Szemer\'edi's theorem implies that there are $2^{o(n)}$ subsets of $[n]$ which do not contain a $k$-term arithmetic progression. A sparse analogue of this statement was obtained by Balogh, Morris, and Samotij, using the hypergraph container…
We report progress on extending the relativistic model-independent quantization condition for three particles, derived previously by two of us, to a broader class of theories, as well as progress on checking the formalism. In particular, we…
The notion of abundance of certain type of configuration in certain large sets was first proved by Furstenberg and Glazner in 1998. After that many author investigate abundance of different types of configurations in different types of…
Let $\mathbf{P}$ denote the set of prime numbers and, for an appropriate function $h$, define a set $\mathbf{P}_{h}=\{p\in\mathbf{P}: \exists_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\ p=\lfloor h(n)\rfloor\}$. The aim of this paper is to show that every subset of…
We obtain a generalization of the recent Kelley--Meka result on sets avoiding arithmetic progressions of length three. In our proof we develop the theory of the higher energies. Also, we discuss the case of longer arithmetic progressions,…
Bourgain and Chang recently showed that any subset of $\mathbb{F}_p$ of density $\gg p^{-1/15}$ contains a nontrivial progression $x,x+y,x+y^2$. We answer a question of theirs by proving that if $P_1,P_2\in\mathbb{Z}[y]$ are linearly…
These notes provide an opportunity to discover the beauty of Bourbaki set theory, and I hope that they will facilitate the task to those who find it difficult to read this book, one of the most critical elements of the mathematics of…
Given two sets $\cA, \cB \subseteq \F_q$ of elements of the finite field $\F_q$ of $q$ elements, we show that the productset $$ \cA\cB = \{ab | a \in \cA, b \in\cB\} $$ contains an arithmetic progression of length $k \ge 3$ provided that…
An improved upper bound is obtained for the density of sequences of positive integers that contain no k-term geometric progression.
We provide upper bounds for logarithmic torsion homology growth and Betti number growth of groups, phrased in the language of measured group theory.
