It is well-known that the first order Peano axioms PA have a continuum of non-isomorphic countable models. The question, how close to being isomorphic such countable models can be, seems to be less investigated. A measure of closeness to…
We study complex bosons and fermions coupled through a generalized Yukawa type coupling in the large-N_c limit following ideas of Rajeev [Int. Jour. Mod. Phys. A 9 (1994) 5583]. We study a linear approximation to this model. We show that in…
Suppose $\{P_{n}^{(\alpha, \beta)}(x)\}_{n=0}^\infty $ is a sequence of Jacobi polynomials with $ \alpha, \beta >-1.$ We discuss special cases of a question raised by Alan Sokal at OPSFA in 2019, namely, whether the zeros of $…
The planar solution is discussed for an N=3 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed recently by Gaiotto and Tomasiello. The planar resolvent is obtained in terms of contour integrals. If the sum of two Chern-Simons levels k_1,k_2 is small,…
We consider the Poisson cylinder model in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 3$. We show that given any two cylinders ${\mathfrak c}_1$ and ${\mathfrak c}_2$ in the process, there is a sequence of at most $d-2$ other cylinders creating a connection…
Previous works have considered the leading correction term to the scaled limit of various correlation functions and distributions for classical random matrix ensembles and their $\beta$ generalisations at the hard and soft edge. It has been…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis (RH), Montgomery proved a theorem concerning pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. One consequence of this theorem is that, assuming RH, at least $67.9\%$ of the nontrivial zeros are simple.…
Let $\mathcal S^2$ be the Stepanov space and let $ \lambda_n\uparrow\infty$. Let $(a_n)_{n\ge 1}$ be satisfying Wiener's condition $A:= \sum_{n\ge 1} \big(\sum_{k\, :\, n\le \lambda_k \le n+1}|a_k|\big)^2 <\infty$. We prove that $\big\|…
We establish that the set of pairs $(\alpha, \beta)$ of real numbers such that $$ \liminf_{q \to + \infty} q \cdot (\log q)^2 \cdot \Vert q \alpha \Vert \cdot \Vert q \beta \Vert > 0, $$ where $\Vert \cdot \Vert$ denotes the distance to the…
For $\alpha>1$, set $\beta=1/(\alpha-1)$. We show that, for every $1<\alpha<(\sqrt{21}+4)/5\approx1.717$, the number of pairs $(m,n)$ of positive integers with $d=\lfloor{n^\alpha}\rfloor - \lfloor{m^\alpha}\rfloor$ is equal to…
Two infinite 0-1 sequences are called compatible when it is possible to cast out 0's from both in such a way that they become complementary to each other. Answering a question of Peter Winkler, we show that if the two 0-1-sequences are…
It is well-known that assumptions of monotonicity in size-bias couplings may be used to prove simple, yet powerful, Poisson approximation results. Here we show how these assumptions may be relaxed, establishing explicit Poisson…
We establish discorrelation estimates between the Piatetski-Shapiro prime set \[ \mathcal{P}_{\gamma} := \{p \text{ is prime and } p = \lfloor n^{1/\gamma} \rfloor \text{ for some } n \in \mathbb{N}\} \] and arbitrary nilsequences when…
In 2014, Wang and Cai established the following harmonic congruence for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $r$, \begin{equation*} Z(p^{r})\equiv-2p^{r-1}B_{p-3} ~(\bmod ~ p^{r}), \end{equation*} where $…
The gaps in the sequence $\{\sqrt{n}\}$ were shown by Elkies-McMullen (2004) to have a limiting distribution which is not the exponential distribution. However it is conjectured that the distribution of gaps in the sequence…
Fekete's lemma shows the existence of limits in subadditive sequences. This lemma, and generalisations of it, also have been used to prove the existence of thermodynamic limits in statistical mechanics. In this paper it is shown that the…
Let $p>5$ be a fixed prime and assume that $\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\alpha_3$ are coprime to $p$. We study the asymptotic behavior of small solutions of congruences of the form $\alpha_1x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0\bmod{q}$ with…
We investigate spectral correlations in quasi one-dimensional Anderson insulators with broken time-reversal symmetry. While energy levels are uncorrelated in the thermodynamic limit of infinite wire-length, some correlations remain in…
We revisit the noisy binary search model of Karp and Kleinberg, in which we have $n$ coins with unknown probabilities $p_i$ that we can flip. The coins are sorted by increasing $p_i$, and we would like to find where the probability crosses…
We study the Sine$_\beta$ process, the bulk point process scaling limit of beta-ensembles. We provide a representation of its pair correlation function for all $\beta>0$ via a stochastic differential equation. We show that the pair…
