In this paper, we study the supports of measures in the free additive convolution semigroup $\{\mu^{\boxplus t}:t>1\}$, where $\mu$ is a Borel probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$. We give a formula for the density of the absolutely…

We prove that if $p\geq 1$ and $-1\leq r\leq p-1$ then the binomial sequence $\binom{np+r}{n}$, $n=0,1,...$, is positive definite and is the moment sequence of a probability measure $\nu(p,r)$, whose support is contained in…

The lambda-dilate of a set A is lambda*A={lambda a : a \in A}. We give an asymptotically sharp lower bound on the size of sumsets of the form lambda_1*A+...+lambda_k*A for arbitrary integers lambda_1,...,lambda_k and integer sets A. We also…

Let $M_n$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. Bernoulli(p) entries. We show that there is a universal constant $C\geq 1$ such that, whenever $p$ and $n$ satisfy $C\log n/n\leq p\leq C^{-1}$, \begin{align*} {\mathbb…

Let $\{\Lambda_n=\{\lambda_{1,n},\ldots,\lambda_{d_n,n}\}\}_n$ be a sequence of finite multisets of real numbers such that $d_n\to\infty$ as $n\to\infty$, and let $f:\Omega\subset\mathbb R^d\to\mathbb R$ be a Lebesgue measurable function…

We show that in many parametrized families of self-similar measures, their projections, and their convolutions, the set of parameters for which the measure fails to be absolutely continuous is very small - of co-dimension at least one in…

We prove that a self similar measure is absolutely continuous providing that it satisfies a condition depending on its Garsia entropy, contraction ratio, and the separation between different points in approximations of the self similar…

A metric measure space $(X,d,\mu)$ is said to be $A_{\infty}$ on curves if there exist constants $\tau < 1$ and $\theta > 0$ with the following property. For every $x \in X$, $0 < r \leq \mathrm{diam}(X)$, and a Borel set $S \subset B(x,r)$…

The set of Salem numbers is proved to be bounded from below by $\theta_{31}^{-1}= 1.08544\ldots$ where $\theta_{n}$, $ n \geq 2$, is the unique root in $(0,1)$ of the trinomial $-1+x+x^n$. Lehmer's number $1.176280\ldots$ belongs to the…

We study the Hausdorff dimension of self-similar sets and measures on the line. We show that if the dimension is smaller than the minimum of 1 and the similarity dimension, then at small scales there are super-exponentially close cylinders.…
