We give a new solvability criterion for the boundary Carath\'{e}odory-Fej\'{e}r problem: given a point $x \in \mathbb{R}$ and, a finite set of target values $a^0,a^1,...,a^n \in \mathbb{R}$, to construct a function $f$ in the Pick class…
Building on the work of Iwaniec, Luo and Sarnak, we use the $n$-level density to bound the probability of vanishing to order at least $r$ at the central point for families of cuspidal newforms of prime level $N \to \infty$, split by sign.…
Let $K$ be a number field, and $g \geq 2$ a positive integer. We define $c_K(g)$ as the smallest integer $n$ such that there exist infinitely many $\overline{K}$-isomorphism classes of genus $g$ hyperelliptic curves $C/K$ with all…
We show that any graded digraph $D$ on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$ has an oriented Ramsey number of at most $C^\Delta n$ for some absolute constant $C > 1$, improving upon a recent result of Fox, He, and Wigderson. In…
If E is a linear homogenous equation and c a natural then the Rado number $R_c(E)$ is the least N so that any c-coloring of the positive integers from 1 to N contains a monochromatic solution. Rado characterized for which E R_c(E) always…
The main result of this article states that the (K;N)-cone over some metric measure space satisfies the reduced Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD^*(KN;N+1) if and only if the underlying space satisfies RCD^*(N-1;N). The proof…
Constant-dimension codes have recently received attention due to their significance to error control in noncoherent random linear network coding. What the maximal cardinality of any constant-dimension code with finite dimension and minimum…
We improve the best lower bounds on the chromatic number of Euclidean space in small dimensions. The new results depend on extensive computations in Sage.
Carath\'eodory showed that $n$ complex numbers $c_1,...,c_n$ can uniquely be written in the form $c_p=\sum_{j=1}^m \rho_j {\epsilon_j}^p$ with $p=1,...,n$, where the $\epsilon_j$s are different unimodular complex numbers, the $\rho_j$s are…
A classic result by Cook, Gerards, Schrijver, and Tardos provides an upper bound of $n \Delta$ on the proximity of optimal solutions of an Integer Linear Programming problem and its standard linear relaxation. In this bound, $n$ is the…
Let G = (V,E) be a finite, simple and undirected graph. For $S \subseteq V$, let $\delta(S,G) = \{(u,v) \in E : u \in S \mbox {and} v \in V-S \}$ be the edge boundary of $S$. Given an integer $i$, $1 \leq i \leq | V |$, let the edge…
A \emph{covering array} is an $N \times k$ array of elements from a $v$-ary alphabet such that every $N \times t$ subarray contains all $v^t$ tuples from the alphabet of size $t$ at least $\lambda$ times; this is denoted as $\CA_\lambda(N;…
We prove lower bounds on complexity measures, such as the approximate degree of a Boolean function and the approximate rank of a Boolean matrix, using quantum arguments. We prove these lower bounds using a quantum query algorithm for the…
We exhibit, for each even degree, a ternary form of rank strictly greater than the maximum rank of monomials. Together with an earlier result in the odd case, this gives the lower bound…
We define upper bound and lower bounds for order-preserving homogeneous of degree one maps on a proper closed cone in $\R^n$ in terms of the cone spectral radius. We also define weak upper and lower bounds for these maps. For a proper…
Two tantalizing invariants of a combinatorial code $\mathcal C\subseteq 2^{[n]}$ are cdim$(\mathcal C)$ and odim$(\mathcal C)$, the smallest dimension in which $\mathcal C$ can be realized by convex closed or open sets, respectively. Cruz,…
We consider weighted Hardy inequalities involving the distance function to the boundary of a domain in the $N$-dimensional Euclidean space with nonempty boundary. We give a lower bound for the corresponding best Hardy constant for a domain…
Let $M$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with entries in $\{0, 1\}$, where each row is independently and uniformly sampled from the set of all vectors in $\{0, 1\}^n$ containing exactly $d$ ones, with $d=pn$ for some fixed constant $p\in…
We show that the maximal determinant D(n) for $n \times n$ ${\pm 1}$-matrices satisfies $R(n) := D(n)/n^{n/2} \ge \kappa_d > 0$. Here $n^{n/2}$ is the Hadamard upper bound, and $\kappa_d$ depends only on $d := n-h$, where $h$ is the maximal…
Convex codes were recently introduced as models for neural codes in the brain. Any convex code $\C$ has an associated minimal embedding dimension $d(\C)$, which is the minimal Euclidean space dimension such that the code can be realized by…
