Let $d$ and $n$ be positive integers, and $E/F$ be a separable field extension of degree $m=\binom{n+d}{n}$. We show that if $|F| > 2$, then there exists a point $P\in \mathbb{P}^n(E)$ which does not lie on any degree $d$ hypersurface…
Given an integer $d \geq 2$, $s \in (0,1]$, and $t \in [0,2(d-1)]$, suppose a set $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has the following property: there is a collection of lines of packing dimension $t$ such that every line from the collection intersects…
The major axis and ellipse-fit intensity profiles of spiral galaxies larger than 0.3'' in the Hubble Space Telescope Ultra Deep Field (UDF) are generally exponential, whereas the major axis profiles in irregular disk galaxies, called…
We calculate the Assouad dimension of the self-affine carpets of Bedford and McMullen, and of Lalley and Gatzouras. We also calculate the conformal Assouad dimension of those carpets that are not self-similar.
We study the following reachability problem for piecewise affine maps: Given two vectors $\mathbf{s}, \mathbf{t} \in \mathbb{Q}^d$ and a piecewise affine map $f \colon \mathbb{Q}^d\rightarrow \mathbb{Q}^d$, does there exist $n\in…
We consider minimal compact complex surfaces S with Betti numbers b_1=1 and n=b_2>0. A theorem of Donaldson gives n exceptional line bundles. We prove that if in a deformation, these line bundles have sections, S is a degeneration of…
Let $E$ be a Bedford-McMullen carpet determined by a set of affine mappings $(f_{ij})_{(i,j)\in G}$ and $\mu$ a self-affine measure on $E$ associated with a probability vector $(p_{ij})_{(i,j)\in G}$. We prove that, for every…
We prove that the Reeb space of a proper definable map $f:X \rightarrow Y$ in an arbitrary o-minimal expansion of a real closed field is realizable as a proper definable quotient. This result can be seen as an o-minimal analog of Stein…
Given a function $f$ on $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, we study the following problem. What is the largest affine subspace $\mathcal{U}$ such that when restricted to $\mathcal{U}$, all the non-trivial Fourier coefficients of $f$ are very small? For the…
A divisibility relation on ultrafilters is defined as follows: ${\cal F}\hspace{1mm}\widetilde{\mid}\hspace{1mm}{\cal G}$ if and only if every set in $\cal F$ upward closed for divisibility also belongs to $\cal G$. After describing the…
A fundamental theorem of Wilson states that, for every graph $F$, every sufficiently large $F$-divisible clique has an $F$-decomposition. Here a graph $G$ is $F$-divisible if $e(F)$ divides $e(G)$ and the greatest common divisor of the…
In non-archimedean setting, we establish a Lehto--Virtanen-type theorem for a morphism from the punctured Berkovich closed unit disk $\overline{\mathsf{D}}\setminus\{0\}$ in the Berkovich affine line to the Berkovich projective line…
Let $(M^{n+1},g,e^{-f}d\mu)$ be a complete smooth metric measure space with $2\leq n\leq 6$ and Bakry-\'{E}mery Ricci curvature bounded below by a positive constant. We prove a smooth compactness theorem for the space of complete embedded…
We show that any compact subset of $\R^d$ which is the closure of a bounded star-shaped Lipschitz domain $\Omega$, such that $\complement \Omega$ has positive reach in the sense of Federer, admits an \emph{optimal AM} (admissible mesh),…
Let $f$ be an analytic polynomial of degree at most $K-1$. A classical inequality of Bernstein compares the supremum norm of $f$ over the unit circle to its supremum norm over the sampling set of the $K$-th roots of unity. Many extensions…
Given a smooth affine curve X over a field k of positive characteristic, and an overconvergent F-isocrystal on X, we prove after replacing k by a finite purely inseparable extension, there exists a finite separable cover of X, the pullback…
In [22] Milnor proved that a real analytic map $f\colon (R^n,0) \to (R^p,0)$, where $n \geq p$, with an isolated critical point at the origin has a fibration on the tube $f|\colon B_\epsilon^n \cap f^{-1}(S_\delta^{p-1}) \to…
We calculate the Assouad and lower dimensions of graph-directed Bedford-McMullen carpets, which reflect the extreme local scaling laws of the sets, in contrasting with known results on Hausdorff and box dimensions. We also investigate the…
We give an example of an $\mathsf{FIID}$ vertex-labeling of $\mathbb{T}_3$ whose marginals are uniform on $[0,1]$, and if we delete the edges between those vertices whose labels are different, then some of the remaining clusters are…
We study tangent sets of strictly self-affine sets in the plane. If a set in this class satisfies the strong separation condition and projects to a line segment for sufficiently many directions, then for each generic point there exists a…
