For a tropical prevariety in ${R}^n$ given by a system of $k$ tropical polynomials in $n$ variables with degrees at most $d$, we prove that its number of connected components is less than ${k+7n-1 \choose 3n} \cdot \frac{d^{3n}}{k+n+1}$. On…

We evaluate the variance of the number of lattice points in a small randomly rotated spherical ball on a surface of 3-dimensional sphere centered at the origin. Previously, Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak showed conditionally on the…

We define three-point bounds for sphere packing that refine the linear programming bound, and we compute these bounds numerically using semidefinite programming by choosing a truncation radius for the three-point function. As a result, we…

We provide upper bounds for the sum of the multiplicities of the non-constant irreducible factors that appear in the canonical decomposition of a polynomial $f(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$, in case all the roots of $f$ lie inside an Apollonius…

In this paper, we study a partially overdetermined mixed boundary value problem in a half ball. We prove that a domain in which this partially overdetermined problem admits a solution if and only if the domain is a spherical cap…

We obtain upper bounds, independent of the ambient dimension, for the number of realizable zero-nonzero patterns and (over ordered fields) sign conditions of a finite family of polynomials $\mathcal P$ restricted to an algebraic subset $V$…

In this paper, we define the rectangle condition on the bridge sphere for a $n$-bridge decomposition of a knot whose definition is analogous to the definition of the rectangle condition for Heegaard splittings of $3$-manifolds. We show that…

We prove the existence of a bound on the number of steps of the minimal model program for singular surfaces in terms of discrepancies and top Chern numbers. As an application, we prove that given $R\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\epsilon\in (0,1)$,…

We establish upper and lower universal bounds for potentials of weighted designs on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ that depend only on quadrature nodes and weights derived from the design structure. Our bounds hold for a large class of…

For each $k\geq 3$, Green proved an arithmetic $k$-cycle removal lemma for any abelian group $G$. The best known bounds relating the parameters in the lemma for general $G$ are of tower-type. For $k>3$, even in the case $G=\mathbb{F}_2^n$…

Given a set of planar curves (Jordan arcs), each pair of which meets -- either crosses or touches -- exactly once, we establish an upper bound on the number of touchings. We show that such a curve family has $O(t^2n)$ touchings, where $t$…

A compact circle-packing $P$ of the Euclidean plane is a set of circles which bound mutually disjoint open discs with the property that, for every circle $S\in P$, there exists a maximal indexed set $\{A_{0},\ldots,A_{n-1}\}\subseteq P$ so…

In this paper, we study additive properties of finite sets of lattice points on spheres in $3$ and $4$ dimensions. Thus, given $d,m \in \mathbb{N}$, let $A$ be a set of lattice points $(x_1, \dots, x_d) \in \mathbb{Z}^d$ satisfying $x_1^2 +…

We study the problem of high-dimensional multiple packing in Euclidean space. Multiple packing is a natural generalization of sphere packing and is defined as follows. Let $ N>0 $ and $ L\in\mathbb{Z}_{\ge2} $. A multiple packing is a set…

We compute the limit of tangents of an arbitrary surface. We obtain as a byproduct an embedded version of Jung's desingularization theorem for surface singularities with finite limits of tangents.

We focus on the second part of Hilbert's 16th problem and provide an upper bound on the number of limit cycles that a polynomial, differential, planar system may have, depending exclusively on the degree $n$ of the system. Such a bound…

An n-simplex is called circumscriptible (or edge-incentric) if there is a sphere tangent to all its n(n + 1)/2 edges. We obtain a closed formula for the radius of the circumscribed sphere of the circumscriptible n-simplex, and also prove a…

We extend two results known for aspherical 3-manifolds to $PD_3$-pairs $(P,\partial{P})$ with aspherical ambient space $P$. Every such $PD_3$-pair may be assembled by attaching 1-handles to $PD_3$-pairs with aspherical; ambient space and…

We give a bound for the number of real solutions to systems of n polynomials in n variables, where the monomials appearing in different polynomials are distinct. This bound is smaller than the fewnomial bound if this structure of the…

We introduce the concept of boundary degeneracy of topologically ordered states on a compact orientable spatial manifold with boundaries, and emphasize that the boundary degeneracy provides richer information than the bulk degeneracy.…
