We classify the polynomials $f(x,y) \in \mathbb R[x,y]$ such that given any finite set $A \subset \mathbb R$ if $|A+A|$ is small, then $|f(A,A)|$ is large. In particular, the following bound holds : $|A+A||f(A,A)| \gtrsim |A|^{5/2}.$ The…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be an analytically un-ramified Noetherian local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$, $I$ a regular $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $A$ and let $\overline{I}$ be integral closure ideal of $I$. If $A$ is of characteristic $p >…

We consider degenerate differential operators $A = \displaystyle{\sum_{k,j=1}^d \partial_k (a_{kj} \partial_j)}$ on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ with real symmetric bounded measurable coefficients. Given a function $\chi \in…

Reidl, S\'anchez Villaamil, and Stravopoulos (2019) characterized graph classes of bounded expansion as follows: A class $\mathcal{C}$ closed under subgraphs has bounded expansion if and only if there exists a function $f:\mathbb{N} \to…

A polynomial $f$ of degree $d$ and coefficients in an algebraically closed field $k$ defines a morphism $f:\mathbb{P}^1_k\longrightarrow\mathbb{P}^1_k$ which, if char$(k)\nmid d$, is unramified outside a finite set of points in the image:…

We prove Bergman's theorem on centralizers by using generic matrices and Kontsevich's quantization method. For any field $\textbf{k} $ of positive characteristics, set $A=\textbf{k} \langle x_1,\dots,x_s\rangle$ be a free associative…

Suppose $F$ is an infinite field and let $f \in F\{X_1, \dots,X_m\}$ be a noncommutative polynomial. Partially answering a query of Makar-Limanov, we show that there are numbers $d$ and $m'$ such that, if $F$ is closed under taking $d$th…

Semiclassical limits of generic multiparameter quantized coordinate rings A = O_q(k^n) of affine spaces are constructed and related to A, for k an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and q a multiplicatively antisymmetric…

Given $d>0$ and a positive integer $n$, let $G$ be a triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices with average degree $d$. With an elegant induction, Shearer (1983) tightened a seminal result of Ajtai, Koml\'os and Szemer\'edi (1980/1981) by proving…

We show that if $f : \mathbb{A}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}^r \to \mathbb{A}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}^r$ is a regular self-map and $P \in \mathbb{A}^r(\bar{\mathbb{Q}})$ has $\limsup_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \frac{\log{h_{\mathrm{aff}}(f^nP)}}{\log{n}} < 1/r$,…

We study trivariate permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}$ extending two APN permutation families of Li--Kaleyski (IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory, 2024) by allowing the scalar parameter to vary over $\mathbb{F}_{2^m}^*$. For \[…

We prove that, for any closed semialgebraic subset $W$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and for any positive integer $p$, there exists a Nash function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\setminus W\longrightarrow (0, \infty)$ which is equivalent to the distance function from…

We study the possibility of splitting any bounded analytic function with singularities in a closed set E union F as a sum of two bounded analytic functions with singularities in E and F respectively. We obtain some results under geometric…

We prove new lower bounds on the maximum size of subsets $A\subseteq \{1,\dots,N\}$ or $A\subseteq \mathbb{F}_p^n$ not containing three-term arithmetic progressions. In the setting of $\{1,\dots,N\}$, this is the first improvement upon a…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $f:G \to {\mathbb C}$ be a function. For a non-empty finite subset $Y\subset G$, let $I_Y(f)$ denote the average of $f$ over $Y$. Then, $I_G(f)$ is the average of $f$ over $G$. Using the decomposition of $f$…

An iterative optimization method applied to a function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ will produce a sequence of arguments $\{\mathbf{x}_k\}_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$; this sequence is often constrained such that $\{f(\mathbf{x}_k)\}_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$…
