We prove that compact 3-manifolds $M$ of constant curvature +1 with boundary a minimal surface are locally naturally parametrized by the conformal class of the boundary metric $\gamma$ in the Teichmuller space of $\partial M$, when…

Modular Graph Functions (MGFs) are SL(2,$\mathbb{Z}$)-invariant functions that emerge in the study of the low-energy expansion of the one-loop closed string amplitude. To find the string scattering amplitude, we must integrate MGFs over the…

The spectral gap of a Markov chain can be bounded by the spectral gaps of constituent "restriction" chains and a "projection" chain, and the strength of such a bound is the content of various decomposition theorems. In this paper, we…

Let $1<k<7/6$, $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ be non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign such that $\lambda_1/\lambda_2$ is irrational and let $\omega$ be a real number. We prove that the inequality…

In 1972, A. J. Hoffman proved his celebrated theorem concerning the limit points of spectral radii of non-negative symmetric integral matrices less than $\sqrt{2+\sqrt{5}}$. In this paper, after giving a new version of Hoffman's theorem, we…

We classify and enumerate all rational numbers with approximation constant at least $\frac{1}{3}$ using hyperbolic geometry. Rational numbers correspond to geodesics in the modular torus with both ends in the cusp, and the approximation…

Let $F \subseteq [0,1]$ be a set that supports a probability measure $\mu$ with the property that $ |\widehat{\mu}(t)| \ll (\log |t|)^{-A}$ for some constant $ A > 0 $. Let $\mathcal{A}= (q_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} $ be a sequence of natural…

Markov's theorem classifies the worst irrational numbers with respect to rational approximation and the indefinite binary quadratic forms whose values for integer arguments stay farthest away from zero. The main purpose of this paper is to…

A classical question in quantitative topology is to bound the mapping degree $\operatorname{deg}(f)$ in terms of its Lipchitz constant $\text{Lip}(f)$. For a closed, orientable, Riemannian manifold $M$, the flexible exponent $\alpha(M)$ is…

For $c>0$, let $X_c$ denote the set of $x\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\mathbb{Q}$ such that $\left| x-\frac{p}{q} \right|<\frac{1}{cq^2}$ has only finitely many rational solutions $\frac{p}{q}$. It is a classical fact, known since the 1950s, that…

Assume $\boldsymbol{\Delta}^1_{2}$-determinacy. Let $L_{\kappa_3}[T_2]$ be the admissible closure of the Martin-Solovay tree and let $M_{1,\infty}$ be the direct limit of $M_1$ via countable trees. We show that $L_{\kappa_3}[T_2] \cap…

Consider two manifolds~$M^m$ and $N^n$ and a first-order Lagrangian $L(u)$ for mappings $u:M\to N$, i.e., $L$ is an expression involving $u$ and its first derivatives whose value is an $m$-form (or more generally, an $m$-density) on~$M$.…

We prove that if $B$ is a set of $N$ positive integers such that $B\cdot B$ contains an arithmetic progression of length $M$, then for some absolute $C > 0$, $$ \pi(M) + C \frac {M^{2/3}}{\log^2 M} \leq N, $$ where $\pi$ is the prime…

The three distance theorem states that for any given irrational number $\alpha$ and a natural number $n$, when the interval $( 0, 1 )$ is divided into $n+1$ subintervals by integer multiples of $\alpha$, namely, $\{0\}, \{ \alpha \}, \{…

In this paper we present a novel slanted-plane MRF model which reasons jointly about occlusion boundaries as well as depth. We formulate the problem as the one of inference in a hybrid MRF composed of both continuous (i.e., slanted 3D…

Markov numbers are integers that appear in triples which are solutions of a Diophantine equation, the so-called Markov cubic $$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 3x y z = 0.$$ A classical topic in number theory, these numbers are related to many areas of…

We consider the Markoff spectrum and the Lagrange spectrum on the Hecke group $\mathbf H_4$. They are identical to the Markoff and Lagrange spectra of the unit circle. The Markoff spectrum on $\mathbf H_4$ is also known as the Markoff…

We prove a strong large deviation principle (LDP) for multiple chordal SLE$_{0+}$ curves with respect to the Hausdorff metric. In the single-chord case, this result strengthens an earlier partial result by the second author. We also…

Let m(a,b) and M(a,b,c) be symmetric means. We say that M is type 1 invariant with respect to m if M(m(a,c),m(a,b),m(b,c)) = M(a,b,c) for all a, b, c > 0. If m is strict and isotone, then we show that there exists a unique M which is type 1…

We prove that an inner function has finite $\mathcal{L} (p)$-entropy if and only if its accumulated M\"obius distortion is in $L^p$, $0<p<\infty$. We also study the support of the positive singular measures such that their corresponding…
