For a degree $n$ polynomial $f$ over the rationals, the elements in the fiber $f^{-1}(a)$ are of degree $n$ over $\mathbb Q$ for most rational values $a$ by Hilbert's irreducibility theorem. Determining the set of exceptional $a$'s without…
For a self-affine measure on a Bedford-McMullen carpet we prove that its quantization dimension exists and determine its exact value. Further, we give various sufficient conditions for the corresponding upper and lower quantization…
In this paper we compute the multifractal analysis for local dimensions of Bernoulli measures supported on the self-affine carpets introduced by Bedford-McMullen. This extends the work of King where the multifractal analysis is computed…
Let $m_1 \geq m_2 \geq 2$ be integers. We consider subsets of the product symbolic sequence space $(\{0,\cdots,m_1-1\} \times \{0,\cdots,m_2-1\})^{\mathbb{N}^*}$ that are invariant under the action of the semigroup of multiplicative…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and $n \geq p \geq r>0$ be integers. In a recent article, Rubei has determined, when $\mathbb{F}$ is the field of real numbers, the greatest possible dimension for an affine subspace of $n$--by--$p$ matrices…
Let $A$ be a simple algebra over a field $F$. Under a mild cardinality assumption on $F$, we determine the greatest possible dimension for an $F$-affine subspace of $A$ that is included in the group of units $A^\times$, and we describe the…
For a given form $F\in \mathbb Z[x_1,\dots,x_s]$ we apply the circle method in order to give an asymptotic estimate of the number of $m$-tuples $\mathbf x_1, \dots, \mathbf x_m$ spanning a linear space on the hypersurface $F(\mathbf x) = 0$…
For planar self-affine sets satisfying the strong separation condition, recent work of B\'ar\'any, Hochman, and Rapaport gives mild assumptions under which the Hausdorff dimension equals the affinity dimension. In this paper, we study…
We show that for families of measures on Euclidean space which satisfy an ergodic-theoretic form of "self-similarity" under the operation of re-scaling, the dimension of linear images of the measure behaves in a semi-continuous way. We…
Let $X$ be an analytic subset of an open neighbourhood $U$ of the origin $\underline{0}$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Let $f\colon (X,\underline{0}) \to (\mathbb{C},0)$ be holomorphic and set $V =f^{-1}(0)$. Let $\B_\epsilon$ be a ball in $U$ of…
We prove uniform upper bounds on the number of integral points of bounded height on affine varieties. If $X$ is an irreducible affine variety of degree $d\geq 4$ in $\mathbb{A}^n$ which is not the preimage of a curve under a linear map…
We show that the class of quasisymmetric maps between horizontal self-affine carpets is rigid. Such maps can only exist when the dimensions of the carpets coincide, and in this case, the quasisymmetric maps are quasi-Lipschitz. We also show…
We present a surprisingly short proof that for any continuous map $f : \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m$, if $n>m$, then there exists no bound on the diameter of fibers of $f$. Moreover, we show that when $m=1$, the union of small…
We extend a theorem of the second author on the $L^q$-dimensions of dynamically driven self-similar measures from the real line to arbitrary dimension. Our approach provides a novel, simpler proof even in the one-dimensional case. As…
We obtain new bounds for (a variant of) the Furstenberg set problem for high dimensional flats over $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, let $F\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $1\leq k \leq n-1$, $s\in (0,k]$, and $t\in (0,k(n-k)]$. We say that $F$ is a…
It is known that in $\mathbb{R}^n,n\geq 2$, a compact set which contains $n-1$ spheres with all radii in $[1/2,1]$ or with all possible centres in $[0,1]^n$ has full Hausdorff dimension. In fact the later set has positive Lebesgue measure.…

We establish periodic quasiconformal extension theorems for periodic orientation-preserving quasisymmetric self homeomorphisms of quasicircles or quasi-round carpets. As applications, we prove that, if $f$ is a periodic…
For a line arrangement in the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$, we investigate the compactification $\overline{F}$ of the affine Milnor fiber in $\mathbb{P}^3$ and its minimal resolution $\widetilde{F}$. We compute the Chern numbers…
In this paper we investigate the Erd\"os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We prove a good upper bound for spherical means that have been…
