Let $K_n$ denote the set of all nonsingular $n\times n$ lower triangular $(0,1)$-matrices. Hong and Loewy (2004) introduced the number sequence $$ c_n=\min\{\lambda\mid\lambda~\text{is an eigenvalue of}~XX^{\rm T},~X\in K_n\},\quad…
In this paper, we prove a lower bound for $\underset{\chi \neq \chi_0}{\max}\bigg|\sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)\bigg|$, when $x= \frac{q}{(\log q)^B}$. This improves on a result of Granville and Soundararajan for large character sums when the…
A lower bound is derived for the boundary entropy s = ln g of a 1+1d quantum critical system with boundary, under the conditions that the bulk conformal central charge c is >=1 and the most relevant bulk scaling dimension is >(c-1)/12. This…
Several recent works in communication systems have proposed to leverage the power of neural networks in the design of encoders and decoders. In this approach, these blocks can be tailored to maximize the transmission rate based on…
Given a formal language L specified in various ways, we consider the problem of determining if L is nonempty. If L is indeed nonempty, we find upper and lower bounds on the length of the shortest string in L.
We investigate the distance properties of linear locally recoverable codes (LRC codes) with all-symbol locality and availability. New upper and lower bounds on the minimum distance of such codes are derived. The upper bound is based on the…
We give an upper bound that relates the minimum weight of a nonzero componentwise product of codewords from some given number of linear codes, with the dimensions of these codes. Its shape is a direct generalization of the classical…
In this paper, we establishe the extremal bounds of the topological indices -- Sigma index -- focusing on analyzing the sharp upper bounds and the lower bounds of the Sigma index, which is known $\sigma(G)=\sum_{uv\in…
We obtained some upper bounds for the pseudocharacter of the space C(X,Y) at a point f.
We present new upper bounds on the parameters of batch codes with restricted query size. These bounds are an improvement on the Singleton bound. The techniques for derivations of these bounds are based on the ideas in the literature for…
Two upper bounds on the minimum distance of type-1 quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC LDPC) codes are derived. The necessary condition is given for the minimum code distance of such codes to grow linearly with the code length.
Two are the main objectives of this article: first, we introduce a method for determining and analyzing constrained local extrema that provides a different alternative to all previous works on the topic, by eliminating Lagrange multipliers…
In this note, we extend the notion of minimal gaps to the higher dimensional sequences. We bound the minimal gap for $(\{\boldsymbol{a}_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\}),$ $(\{a_n\boldsymbol{\alpha}\})$ and…
Random fields in nature often have, to a good approximation, Gaussian characteristics. We present the mathematical framework for a new and simple method for investigating the non-Gaussian contributions, based on counting the maxima and…
Graphs of solutions to the minimal surface equation over simply connected domains with boundary values 0 can have at most exponential growth.
A set of non-negative integers is an additive basis with range $n$, if its sumset covers all consecutive integers from 0 to $n$, but not $n+1$. If the range is exactly twice the largest element of the basis, the basis is restricted.…
In this paper we investigate codes over finite commutative rings R, whose generator matrices are built from \$\alpha\$-circulant matrices. For a non-trivial ideal I<R we give a method to lift such codes over R/I to codes over R, such that…
We obtain a Burgess-type bound for character sums over unions of intervals. The result follows from the argument of Heath-Brown, with an improvement in one of the steps.
We derive explicit upper bounds for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(\sigma + it)$ on the lines $\sigma = 1 - k/(2^k - 2)$ for integer $k \ge 4$. This is used to show that the zeta-function has no zeroes in the region $$\sigma > 1 -…
This paper is devoted to the problem of prescribing the scalar curvature under zero boundary conditions. Using dynamical and topological methods involving the study of critical points at infinity of the associated variational problem, we…
