Many important theorems in combinatorics, such as Szemer\'edi's theorem on arithmetic progressions and the Erd\H{o}s-Stone Theorem in extremal graph theory, can be phrased as statements about independent sets in uniform hypergraphs. In…
Let $f(n)$ count the number of subsets of $\{1,...,n\}$ without an element dividing another. In this paper I show that $f(n)$ grows like the $n$-th power of some real number, in the sense that $\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}f(n)^{1/n}$ exists.…
We consider linear iterated function systems with a random multiplicative error on the real line. Our system is $\{x\mapsto d_i + \lambda_i Y x\}_{i=1}^m$, where $d_i\in \R$ and $\lambda_i>0$ are fixed and $Y> 0$ is a random variable with…

Assuming the existence of certain large cardinal numbers, we prove that for every projective filter $\mathscr F$ over the set of natural numbers, $\mathscr{F}$-bases in Banach spaces have continuous coordinate functionals. In particular,…
We prove that the coordinate functionals associated with filter bases in Banach spaces are continuous as long as the underlying filter is analytic. This removes the large-cardinal hypothesis from the result established by the two last-named…
We prove Veech's conjecture on the equivalence of Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius orthogonality with a Kolmogorov type property of Furstenberg systems of the M\''obius function. This yields a combinatorial condition on the M\"obius function…
Rouch\'e's Theorem is among the most useful results in complex analysis for counting zeros of analytic functions. Rouch\'e's Theorem also admits a harmonic analogue for counting zeros of complex harmonic functions. Previously, this analogue…
Using the theory of o-minimality we show that the $p$-adic method of Skolem-Mahler-Lech-Chabauty may be adapted to prove instances of the dynamical Mordell-Lang conjecture for some real analytic dynamical systems. For example, we show that…
Several important conjectures in Fractal Geometry can be summarised as follows: If the dimension of a self-similar measure in $\mathbb{R}$ does not equal its expected value, then the underlying iterated function system contains an exact…
One of the classical results concerning differentiability of continuous functions states that the set $\mathcal{SD}$ of somewhere differentiable functions (i.e., functions which are differentiable at some point) is Haar-null in the space…
We show that for any infinite set $A$ in ${\mathbb R}$, there exists a compact set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ of positive Lebesgue measure that does not contain any non-trivial affine copy of $A$. This proves the Erd\"os similarity…
In this paper we show that every set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive density contains $B+C$ for some pair $B,C$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, settling a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. The proof features two different decompositions of…
\def\G{\mathcal G} \def\M{\mathcal M} \def\cE{\mathcal E} We prove an analog of Liv\v{s}ic theorem for real-analytic families of cocycles over an integrable system with values in a Banach algebra $\G$ or a Lie group. Namely, we consider an…
A classical result due to Blaschke states that for every analytic self-map $f$ of the open unit disk of the complex plane there exists a Blaschke product $B$ such that the zero sets of $f$ and $B$ agree. In this paper we show that there is…
Let $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathbb{R}_{\geqslant1}$ be a countable set such that $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log x}\sum_{\alpha\in\mathcal{A}\cap[1,x]}\frac{1}{\alpha}>0$. We prove that, for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exist infinitely many…
This paper deals with analytic families of holomorphic iterated function systems. Using real analyticity of the pressure function (which we prove), we establish a classification theorem for analytic families of holomorphic iterated function…
Let $\{X(t):t\in\mathbb R_+\}$ be a stationary Gaussian process with almost surely (a.s.) continuous sample paths, $\mathbb E X(t) = 0$, $\mathbb E X^2(t) = 1$ and correlation function satisfying (i) $r(t) = 1 - C|t|^{\alpha} +…
The celebrated Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal Conjecture says that in any proper hereditary class of finite graphs we are guaranteed to have a clique or anti-clique of size $n^c$, which is a much better bound than the logarithmic size that is provided by…
We study M-separability as well as some other combinatorial versions of separability. In particular, we show that the set-theoretic hypothesis b=d implies that the class of selectively separable spaces is not closed under finite products,…
