We prove a quantitative version of the Polynomial Szemeredi Theorem for difference sets. This result is achieved by first establishing a higher dimensional analogue of a theorem of Sarkozy (the simplest non-trivial case of the Polynomial…

We present a concise proof for the supporting hyperplane theorem. We then observe that the proof not only establishes the supporting hyperplane theorem but also extends it to a hyperplane separation theorem for certain non-convex sets. The…

Theory of motivic superpolynomials is developed, including its extension to algebraic links colored by rows, relations to $L$-functions of plane curve singularities, the justification of the motivic versions of Weak Riemann Hypothesis, and…

In this article, we survey the the recent literature surrounding the geometry of complex polynomials. Specific areas surveyed are i) Generalizations of the Gauss--Lucas Theorem, ii) Geometry of Polynomials Level Sets, and iii) Shape…

We study the existence of polynomial kernels for the problem of deciding feasibility of integer linear programs (ILPs), and for finding good solutions for covering and packing ILPs. Our main results are as follows: First, we show that the…

We show that an analogue of the Ball-Box Theorem for step 2, completely non-integrable bundles from smooth sub-Riemannian geometry hold true for a class of non-differentiable tangent subbundles that satisfy a geometric condition. In the…

We formulate and prove a periodic analog of Maxwell's theorem relating stressed planar frameworks and their liftings to polyhedral surfaces with spherical topology. We use our lifting theorem to prove deformation and rigidity-theoretic…

We give a purely complex geometric proof of the existence of the Bergman kernel expansion. Our method provides a sharper estimate, and in the case that the metrics are real analytic, we prove that the remainder decays faster than any…

We provide sufficient conditions for systems of polynomial equations over general (real or complex) algebras to have a solution. This generalizes known results on quaternions, octonions and matrix algebras. We also generalize the…

We study the orthogonal projections of symplectic balls in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ on complex subspaces. In particular we show that these projections are themselves symplectic balls under a certain complexity assumption. Our main result is a…

We prove the existence of Gysin morphisms for hyperplane sections that may not satisfy the usual hypotheses of the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem. As an application, we show the triviality of the Alexander polynomial of a particular class of…

We prove the Strengthened Hanna Neumann Conjecture. We give a more direct cohomological interpretation of the conjecture in terms of "typical" covering maps, and use graph Galois theory to "symmetrize" the conjecture. The conjecture is then…

Answering Tarski's plank problem, Bang showed in 1951 that it is impossible to cover a convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 1$ by planks whose total width is less than the minimal width $w(K)$ of $K$. In 2003, A. Bezdek asked…

We first exhibit counterexamples to some open questions related to a theorem of Sakai. Then we establish an extension theorem of Sakai type for separately holomorphic/meromorphic functions.

We prove a KKM-type theorem for matroid colored families of set coverings of a polytope. This generalizes Gale's colorful KKM theorem as well as recent sparse-colorful variants by Sober\'on, and McGinnis and Zerbib.

We provide an alternative, simpler proof of the existence of thick triangulations for noncompact $\mathcal{C}^1$ manifolds. Moreover, this proof is simpler than the original one given in \cite{pe}, since it mainly uses tools of elementary…
