We first consider a question raised by Alexander Eremenko and show that if $\Omega $ is an arbitrary connected open cone in ${\mathbb R}^d$, then any two positive harmonic functions in $\Omega $ that vanish on $\partial \Omega $ must be…

For a partition $\underline{\lambda} = (\lambda_{1}^{\rho _1}>\lambda_{2}^{\rho _2}>\lambda_{3}^{\rho _3}>\ldots>\lambda_{k}^{\rho _k})$ and its associated finite $\mathcal{R}$-module…

This paper answers three questions posed by the first author. In Theorem 2.6 we show that the family of strong measure zero subsets of {}^{omega_1}2 is 2^{aleph_1}-additive under GMA and CH. In Theorem 3.1 we prove that the generalized…

We introduce the notions of over- and under-independence for weakly mixing and (free) ergodic measure preserving actions and establish new results which complement and extend the theorems obtained in [BoFW] and [A]. Here is a sample of…

A well-known conjecture in analytic number theory states that for every pair of sets $X,Y\subset\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$, each of size at least $\log ^C p$ (for some constant $C$) we have that the number of pairs $(x,y)\in X\times Y$ such…

It is well known that an extreme order statistic and a central order statistic (os) as well as an intermediate os and a central os from a sample of iid univariate random variables get asymptotically independent as the sample size increases.…

We estimate the sizes of the sumset A + A and the productset A $\cdot$ A in the special case that A = S (x, y), the set of positive integers n less than or equal to x, free of prime factors exceeding y.

We seek simple conditions on a pair of labeled posets that determine when the difference of their $(P,\omega)$-partition enumerators is $F$-positive, i.e., positive in Gessel's fundamental basis. This is a quasisymmetric analogue of the…

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…

Improving upon a technique of Croot and Hart, we show that for every $h$, there exists an $\epsilon > 0$ such that if $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is sufficiently large and $|A.A| \le |A|^{1+\epsilon}$, then $|hA| \ge…

We show that there is a positive constant $c$ such that any graph on vertex set $[n]$ with at most $c n^2/k^2 \log k$ edges contains an independent set of order $k$ whose vertices form an arithmetic progression. We also present applications…

We prove that for a positive integer $c$ and any given $\varepsilon$, $0<\varepsilon<1$, the number $N(c)$ of equations $c=a+b$, $a<b$, with positive coprime integers $a$ and $b$, which satisfy the inequality $$c <…

We extend to the multivariate non-commutative context the descriptions of a "once-stripped" probability measure in terms of Jacobi parameters, orthogonal polynomials, and the moment generating function. The corresponding map Phi on states…

In the present paper we prove that for any open connected set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\geq 1$, and any $E\subset \partial \Omega$ with $\mathcal{H}^n(E)<\infty$, absolute continuity of the harmonic measure $\omega$ with respect…

We consider two positive, normalized measures dA(x) and dB(x) related by the relationship dA(x)=(C/(x+D))dB(x) or by dA(x) = (C/(x^2+E))dB(x) and dB(x) is symmetric. We show that then the polynomial sequences {a_{n}(x)}, {b_{n}(x)}…

A recent article of Chernikov, Hrushovski, Kruckman, Krupinski, Moconja, Pillay and Ramsey finds the first examples of simple structures with formulas which do not fork over $\emptyset$ but are universally measure zero. In this article we…

We present several $\mathsf{ZFC}$ examples of compactifications $\gamma\omega$ of $\omega$ such that their remainders $\gamma\omega\backslash\omega$ are nonseparable and carry strictly positive measures.

In the present paper we prove that for any open connected set $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^{n+1}$, $n\geq 1$, and any $E\subset \partial\Omega$ with $0<{\mathcal H}^n(E)<\infty$ absolute continuity of the harmonic measure $\omega$ with respect…

For each ${\small b\in(0, \infty)}$ we intend to generate a decreasing sequence of subsets $(\mathcal{Y}_{b}^{(n)}) \subset Y_{\mathrm{conc}}$ depending on $b$ such that whenever $n\in\mathbb{N}$, then $\mathcal{A}\cap\mathcal{Y}_{b}^{(n)}%…

We characterize the growth of the Sibson and Arimoto mutual informations and $\alpha$-maximal leakage, of any order that is at least unity, between a random variable and a growing set of noisy, conditionally independent and…
