A set $U$ of unit vectors is selectively balancing if one can find two disjoint subsets $U^+$ and $U^-$, not both empty, such that the Euclidean distance between the sum of $U^+$ and the sum of $U^-$ is smaller than $1$. We prove that the…

Assume D is a simplicial sphere, and k_1 is a field. We say that D is generically anisotropic over k_1 if, for a certain purely transcendental field extension k of k_1, a certain Artinian reduction A of the Stanley-Reisner ring k[D] has the…

In this paper we prove the conjecture of Korevaar and Meyers: for each $N\ge c_dt^d$ there exists a spherical $t$-design in the sphere $S^d$ consisting of $N$ points, where $c_d$ is a constant depending only on $d$.

We prove that for every integer $t\ge 1$ there exists a constant $c_t$ such that for every $K_t$-minor-free graph $G$, and every set $S$ of balls in $G$, the minimum size of a set of vertices of $G$ intersecting all the balls of $S$ is at…

We show that for bounded domains in $\mathbb C^n$ with $\mathcal C^{1,1}$ smooth boundary, if there is a closed set $F$ of $2n-1$-Lebesgue measure $0$ such that $\partial \Omega \setminus F$ is $\mathcal C^{2}$-smooth and locally…

For $n\in \mathbb{N}$ let $S_n$ be the smallest number $S>0$ satisfying the inequality $$ \int_K f \le S \cdot |K|^{\frac 1n} \cdot \max_{\xi\in S^{n-1}} \int_{K\cap \xi^\bot} f $$ for all centrally-symmetric convex bodies $K$ in…

A set S of unit vectors in n-dimensional Euclidean space is called spherical two-distance set, if there are two numbers a and b, and inner products of distinct vectors of S are either a or b. The largest cardinality g(n) of spherical…

Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent rows $R_1(A),\dots,R_n(A)$, and assume that for any $i\leq n$ and any three-dimensional linear subspace $F\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ the orthogonal projection of $R_i(A)$ onto $F$ has…

The aim of this paper is to prove that if a planar set $A$ has a difference set $\Delta(A)$ satisfying $\Delta(A)\subset \Z^++s$ for suitable $s$ than $A$ has at most 3 elements. This result is motivated by the conjecture that the disk has…

We analyze all orthonormal bases of exponentials on the Cantor set defined by Jorgensen and Pedersen in J. Anal. Math. 75,1998, pp 185-228. A complete characterization for all maximal sets of orthogonal exponentials is obtained by…

Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a centered convex body of volume one. We prove that there exist absolute constants $c,C > 0$ and an orthonormal set of vectors $\Theta \subset S^{n-1}$ with size $\left|\Theta\right| \ge 9n/10$ such that, if…

We prove that if $E$ is a compact subset of the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ in the complex plane, if $E$ contains a sequence of distinct points $a_n\not= 0$ for $n\geq 1$ such that $\lim_{n\to\infty} a_n=0$ and for all $n$ we have $ |a_{n+1}|…

We establish for the matrix group $G=\mathrm{SL}_{n}\left(\mathbb{F}_{p}\right)$ that there exist absolute constants $c\in\left(0,1\right)$ and $C>0$ such that any symmetric generating set $A$, with $\left|A\right|\geq\left|G\right|^{1-c}$…

We prove that the density of a topologically nontrivial, area-minimizing hypercone with an isolated singularity must be greater than the square root of 2. The Simons' cones show that this is the best possible constant. If one of the…

It is natural to ask for a reasonable constant k having the property that any open set of area greater than k on a bidimensional sphere of area 1 always contains the vertices of a regular tetrahedron. We shall prove that it is sufficient to…

Two sets $A$ and $B$ of points in the plane are \emph{mutually avoiding} if no line generated by any two points in $A$ intersects the convex hull of $B$, and vice versa. In 1994, Aronov, Erd\H os, Goddard, Kleitman, Klugerman, Pach, and…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a class of graphs that is closed under taking subgraphs. We prove that if for some fixed $0<\delta\le 1$, every $n$-vertex graph of $\mathcal{C}$ has a balanced separator of order $O(n^{1-\delta})$, then any depth-$k$…

The spherical orthogonal, unitary, and symplectic ensembles (SOE/SUE/SSE) $S_\beta(N,r)$ consist of $N \times N$ real symmetric, complex hermitian, and quaternionic self-adjoint matrices of Frobenius norm $r$, made into a probability space…

In this paper, we consider the class $\mathcal{C}^d$ of sphere intersection graphs in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for $d \geq 2$. We show that for each integer $t$, the class of all graphs in $\mathcal{C}^d$ that exclude $K_{t,t}$ as a subgraph has…

The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…
