We prove that there is a universal constant $C>0$ with the following property. Suppose that $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and that $\mathsf{A}=(a_{ij})\in M_n(\mathbb{R})$ is a symmetric stochastic matrix. Denote the second-largest eigenvalue of…
We prove that no smooth symmetric convex body $\Omega$ with at least one point of non-vanishing Gaussian curvature can admit an orthogonal basis of exponentials. (The non-symmetric case was proven by Kolountzakis). This is further evidence…
Vasin (for $n=1$) and Anderson, Lehrb\"ack, Mudarra, and V\"ah\"akangas (arXiv:2209.06284) (for $n>1$) provided a geometric characterization of the sets $E \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ so that $w = \text{dist}(\cdot, E)^{-\alpha}$ is a Muckenhoupt…
Due to their flexibility, frames of Hilbert spaces are attractive alternatives to bases in approximation schemes for problems where identifying a basis is not straightforward or even feasible. Computing a best approximation using frames,…
We associate to a filtration of a graded linear series of a big line bundle a concave function on the Okounkov body whose law with respect to Lebesgue's measure describes the asymptotic distribution of the jumps of the filtration. As a…

We aim to fill a gap in the proof of an inequality relating two exponents of uniform Diophantine approximation stated in a paper by Bugeaud. We succeed to verify the inequality in several instances, in particular for small dimension.…
