We give a sharpened form of Siegel Lemma's w. r. t. the maximum norm. This implies a new lower bound on the greatest element of a sum-distinct set of positive integers (Erd\"os-Moser problem). The main tools are Minkowski's theorem on…
Tao conjectured that every dense subset of $\mathcal{P}^d$, the $d$-tuples of primes, contains constellations of any given shape. This was very recently proved by Cook, Magyar, and Titichetrakun and independently by Tao and Ziegler. Here we…
Assuming the well-known conjecture that [x,x+x^t] contains a prime for t > 0 and x sufficiently large, we prove: For 0 < r < 1, there exists 0 < s < r < 1, 0 < d < 1, and infinitely many primes q such that if S is a subset of Z/qZ having…
We consider the nonlinear system $c_1p_1^d +c_2p_2^d + \dots + c_s p_s^d = 0$ with $c_1, c_2,\dots, c_s\in\mathbb Z$ being nonzero and satisfying $c_1 +c_2 + \dots + c_s = 0$. We show that for $s\ge 2\lfloor \frac{d^2}2\rfloor+1$ and…
A joint of a set of lines $\mathcal{L}$ in $\mathbb{F}^d$ is a point that is contained in $d$ lines with linearly independent directions. The joints problem asks for the maximum number of joints that are formed by $L$ lines. Guth and Katz…
We study $n$-vertex $d$-dimensional polytopes with at most one nonsimplex facet with, say, $d+s$ vertices, called {\it almost simplicial polytopes}. We provide tight lower and upper bound theorems for these polytopes as functions of $d,n$…
The polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem implies that, for any $\delta \in (0,1)$, any family $\{P_1,\ldots, P_m\} \subset \mathbb{Z}[y]$ of nonconstant polynomials with constant term zero, and any sufficiently large $N$, every subset of…
Recently Conlon, Fox, and the author gave a new proof of a relative Szemer\'edi theorem, which was the main novel ingredient in the proof of the celebrated Green-Tao theorem that the primes contain arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions.…
We study bounded remainder sets with respect to an irrational rotation of the $d$-dimensional torus. The subject goes back to Hecke, Ostrowski and Kesten who characterized the intervals with bounded remainder in dimension one. First we…
In this paper, we prove new relations between the bias of multilinear forms, the correlation between multilinear forms and lower degree polynomials, and the rank of tensors over $GF(2)= \{0,1\}$. We show the following results for…
In this note, we consider applications of Ratner's theorem to constructions of families of polynomials with dense values on the set of primitive integer points from the viewpoint of invariant theory.
In this paper, we give some counting results on integer polynomials of fixed degree and bounded height whose distinct non-zero roots are multiplicatively dependent. These include sharp lower bounds, upper bounds and asymptotic formulas for…
We study density and partition properties of polynomial equations in prime variables. We consider equations of the form $a_1h(x_1) + \cdots + a_sh(x_s)=b$, where the $a_i$ and $b$ are fixed coefficients, and $h$ is an arbitrary integer…
We study the problems of bounding the number weak and strong independent sets in $r$-uniform, $d$-regular, $n$-vertex linear hypergraphs with no cross-edges. In the case of weak independent sets, we provide an upper bound that is tight up…
A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection x --> c-x. Given 0 < x < 1, there exists a real number D(x) with the following property: if 0 < d < D(x), then every subset of [0,1] with measure x contains…
We consider a general nonlinear dispersive equation with monomial nonlinearity of order $k$ over $\mathbb{R}^d$. We construct a rigorous theory which states that higher-order nonlinearities and higher dimensions induce sharper local…
We prove an effective version of the inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^3$-norm for functions supported on high-rank quadratic level sets in finite vector spaces. For configurations controlled by the $U^3$-norm (complexity-two…
In this paper we present two different results in the context of nonlinear analysis. The first one is essentially a nonlinear technique that, in view of its strong generality, may be useful in different practical problems. The second…
For any fixed $d\geq1$ and subset $X$ of $\mathbb{N}^d$, let $r_X(n)$ be the maximum cardinality of a subset $A$ of $\{1,\dots,n\}^d$ which does not contain a subset of the form $\vec{b} + rX$ for $r>0$ and $\vec{b} \in \mathbb{R}^d$. Such…
We give a generalization of the geometric estimate used by Hart and the second author in their 2008 work on sums and products in finite fields. Their result concerned level sets of non-degenerate bilinear forms over finite fields, while in…
