Signal recovery from incomplete or partial frequency information is a fundamental problem in harmonic analysis and applied mathematics, with wide-ranging applications in communications, imaging, and data science. Historically, the classical…

The additive energy plays a central role in combinatorial number theory. We show an uncertainty inequality which indicates how the additive energy of support of a Boolean function, its degree and subcube partition are related.

In a real expert system, one may have unreliable, unconfident, conflicting estimates of the value for a particular parameter. It is important for decision making that the information present in this aggregate somehow find its way into use.…

We establish a sharp adjoint Fourier restriction inequality for the end-point Tomas-Stein restriction theorem on the circle under a certain arithmetic constraint on the support set of the Fourier coefficients of the given function. Such…

Given a signal $f:G\to\mathbb{C}$, where $G$ is a finite abelian group, under what reasonable assumptions can we guarantee the exact recovery of $f$ from a proper subset of its Fourier coefficients? In 1989, Donoho and Stark established a…

Given a subset of real numbers $A$ with small product $AA$ we obtain a new upper bound for the additive energy of $A$. The proof uses a natural observation that level sets of convolutions of the characteristic function of $A$ have small…

We study higher moments of convolutions of the characteristic function of a set, which generalize a classical notion of the additive energy. Such quantities appear in many problems of additive combinatorics as well as in number theory. In…

We prove weighted versions of the 2D Restriction Conjecture for the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our results involve the weight functions $(1+|x|)^\alpha(1+|y|)^\beta$ and $(1+|x|+|y|)^\gamma$ with $\alpha,\beta,\gamma\geq 0$.

We establish a number of uncertainty inequalities for the additive group of a finite affine plane, showing that for $p$ prime, a nonzero function $f\colon\mathbb F_p^2\to\mathbb C$ and its Fourier transform $\hat f\colon\widehat{\mathbb…

Given a subset $A \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$, let $\mu(A)$ be the maximal ratio between $\ell_4$ and $\ell_2$ norms of a function whose Fourier support is a subset of $A$. We make some simple observations about the connections between $\mu(A)$…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $A$ a subset of $G$. The spectrum of $A$ is the set of its large Fourier coefficients. Known combinatorial results on the structure of spectrum, such as Chang's theorem, become trivial in the regime…

In the paper we find new inequalities involving the intersections $A\cap (A-x)$ of shifts of some subset $A$ from an abelian group. We apply the inequalities to obtain new upper bounds for the additive energy of multiplicative subgroups and…

We study generalised additive models, with shape restrictions (e.g. monotonicity, convexity, concavity) imposed on each component of the additive prediction function. We show that this framework facilitates a nonparametric estimator of each…

In the paper we develop the method of higher energies. New upper bounds for the additive energies of convex sets, sets A with small |AA| and |A(A+1)| are obtained. We prove new structural results, including higher sumsets, and develop the…

Combining Freiman's theorem with Balog-Szemeredi-Gowers theorem one can show that if an additive set has large additive energy, then a large piece of the set is contained in a generalized arithmetic progression of small rank and size. In…

Let $f$ be a nonnegative function supported on $(-1/4, 1/4)$. We show $$ \sup_{x \in \mathbb{R}}{\int_{\mathbb{R}}{f(t)f(x-t)dt}} \geq 1.28\left(\int_{-1/4}^{1/4}{f(x)dx} \right)^2,$$ where 1.28 improves on a series of earlier results. The…

Assume that $A\subseteq \Fp, B\subseteq \Fp^{*}$, $\1/4\leqslant\frac{|B|}{|A|},$ $|A|=p^{\alpha}, |B|=p^{\beta}$. We will prove that for $p\geqslant p_0(\beta)$ one has $$\sum_{b\in B}E_{+}(A, bA)\leqslant 15 p^{-\frac{\min\{\beta,…

Suppose $0 < \alpha \leq n$, $H: \Bbb R^n \to [0,1]$ is a Lebesgue measurable function, and $A_\alpha(H)$ is the infimum of all numbers $C$ for which the inequality $\int_B H(x) dx \leq C R^\alpha$ holds for all balls $B \subset \Bbb R^n$…

Let G be a finite abelian group of order n. For a complex valued function f on G, let \fht denote the Fourier transform of f. The uncertainty inequality asserts that if f \neq 0 then |supp(f)| |supp(\fht)| \geq n. Answering a question of…

Suppose that a target function is monotonic, namely, weakly increasing, and an original estimate of the target function is available, which is not weakly increasing. Many common estimation methods used in statistics produce such estimates.…
