We review our recent determination of the strong coupling \alpha_s from the OPAL data for non-strange hadronic tau decays. We find that \alpha_s(m^2_\tau) =0.325+-0.018 using fixed-order perturbation theory, and…
A family of random matrices is said to converge strongly to a limiting family of operators if the operator norm of every noncommutative polynomial of the matrices converges to that of the limiting operators. Recent developments surrounding…
We observe that the strong slope conjecture implies that the degree of the colored Jones polynomial detects all torus knots. As an application we obtain that an adequate knot that has the same colored Jones polynomial degrees as a torus…
We try to control many cardinal characteristics by working with a notion of orthogonality between two families of forcings. We show that b^+<g is consistent
We prove a positive polarized cube relation for infinite cardinals.
We derive a weak-strong uniqueness and stability principle for the Landau equation in the soft potentials case (including Coulomb interactions). The distance between two solutions is measured by their relative entropy, which to our…
Recently it has been proved that, assuming that there is an almost disjoint family of cardinality (2^{\mathfrak c}) in (\mathfrak c) (which is assured, for instance, by either Martin's Axiom, or CH, or even $2^{<\mathfrak c=\mathfrak c$})…
We study self-similar measures in $\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the weak separation condition along with weak technical assumptions which are satisfied in all known examples. For such a measure $\mu$, we show that there is a finite set of concave…
With the long-standing tension between experiment and Standard-Model (SM) prediction in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $a_\mu$ recently reaffirmed by the Fermilab experiment, the crucial question becomes which other observables…
A transversal set of a graph $G$ is a set of vertices incident to all edges of $G$. The transversal number of $G$, denoted by $\tau(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of a transversal set of $G$. A simple graph $G$ with no isolated vertex is…
Generalizing the notion of a tight almost disjoint family, we introduce the notions of a {\em tight eventually different} family of functions in Baire space and a {\em tight eventually different set of permutations} of $\omega$. Such sets…
We extend and improve the result of Makkai and Par\'e that the powerful image of any accessible functor F is accessible, assuming there exists a sufficiently large strongly compact cardinal. We reduce the required large cardinal assumption…
We show how the problem of estimating conditional Kendall's tau can be rewritten as a classification task. Conditional Kendall's tau is a conditional dependence parameter that is a characteristic of a given pair of random variables. The…
We give a precise functional comparison between classical and free convolutions. If $\mu$ and $\nu$ are compactly supported probability measures, we show that the expectation of $f$ over the classical convolution $\mu * \nu$ is at least the…
We investigate whether the ultrafilter number function $\kappa \mapsto \mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ on the cardinals is monotone, that is, whether $\mathfrak{u}(\lambda) \le \mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ holds for all cardinals $\lambda < \kappa$ or not.…
Let $C\subseteq \{1,\ldots,k\}^n$ be such that for any $k$ distinct elements of $C$ there exists a coordinate where they all differ simultaneously. Fredman and Koml\'os studied upper and lower bounds on the largest cardinality of such a set…
We study feebly compact topologies $\tau$ on the semilattice $\left(\exp_n\lambda,\cap\right)$ such that $\left(\exp_n\lambda,\tau\right)$ is a semitopological semilattice. All compact semilattice $T_1$-topologies on $\exp_n\lambda$ are…
We prove two results for $C^{1+\alpha}$ diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold preserving an SRB measure $\mu$. First, if $\mu$ is exponentially mixing, then it is Bernoulli. Second, if $\mu$ is obtained as an exponential volume limit, then…
Let $h$ be a positive integer and $A, B_1, B_2,\dots, B_h$ be finite sets in a commutative group. We bound $|A+B_1+...+B_h|$ from above in terms of $|A|, |A+B_1|,\dots,|A+B_h|$ and $h$. Extremal examples, which demonstrate that the bound is…
We characterize the rings in which the equality $(\tau I:\tau)= I^*$ holds for every ideal $I \subset R$. Under certain assumptions, these rings must be either weakly F-regular or one-dimensional.
