The population $\mathrm{KL}_{\inf}$ is a fundamental quantity that appears in lower bounds for (asymptotically) optimal regret of pure-exploration stochastic bandit algorithms, and optimal stopping time of sequential tests. Motivated by…

The $f_\varrho / m_\varrho$ ratio is calculated at N$^3$LO order within perturbative (p)NRQCD with $N_f$ flavors of mass degenerate fermions. The massless limit of the ratio is expanded \'a la Banks-Zaks in $\epsilon = 16.5 - N_f$ leading…

Let $C$ be the middle third Cantor set and $\mu$ be the $\frac{\log 2}{\log 3}$-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to $C$. In this paper we study approximations of elements of $C$ by dyadic rationals. Our main result implies that for…

For positive integers $c, s \geq 1$, let $M_3(c, s)$ be the least integer such that any set of at least $M_3(c, s)$ points in the plane, no three on a line and colored with $c$ colors, contains a monochromatic triangle with at most $s$…

The L\'evy constant of an irrational real number is defined by the exponential growth rate of the sequence of denominators of the principal convergents in its continued fraction expansion. Any quadratic irrational has an ultimately periodic…

We study the spectrum of the Laplace operator of a complete minimal properly immersed hypersurface $M$ in $\R^{n+1}$. (1) Under a volume growth condition on extrinsic balls and a condition on the unit normal at infinity, we prove that $M$…

A triple (a, b, c) of positive integers is called a Markoff triple iff it satisfies the Diophantine equation a2+b2+c2=abc . Recasting the Markoff tree, whose vertices are Markoff triples, in the framework of integral upper triangular 3x3…

Let $M(x)$ be the length of the largest subinterval of $[1,x]$ which does not contain any sums of two squareful numbers. We prove a lower bound \[ M(x)\gg \frac{\ln x}{(\ln\ln x)^2} \] for all $x\geq 3$. The proof relies on properties of…

We study an intrinsic Lagrange spectrum of the unit circle $|z|=1$ in the complex plane with respect to the Eisensteinian field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$. We prove that the minimum of the Lagrange spectrum is $2$ and that its smallest…

For $0 < \alpha \leq 1$, let $E$ be a compact subset of the $d$-dimensional moment curve in $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $N(E,\varepsilon) \lesssim \varepsilon^{-\alpha}$ for $0 <\varepsilon <1$ where $N(E,\varepsilon)$ is the smallest number…

We show that, for each real number $\epsilon > 0$ there is an integer $c$ such that, if $M$ is a simple triangle-free binary matroid with $|M| \ge (\tfrac{1}{4} + \epsilon) 2^{r(M)}$, then $M$ has critical number at most $c$. We also give a…

Define the map $\mathsf{T}$ on the positive integers by $\mathsf{T}(m)=\frac{m}{2}$ if $m$ is even and by $\mathsf{T}(m)=\frac{3m+1}{2}$ if $m$ is odd. Results of Terras and Everett imply that, given any $\epsilon>0$, almost all…

We show that at least 1/3 of positive real numbers are in the set of limit points of normalized prime gaps. More precisely, if $p_n$ denotes the $n$th prime and $\mathbb{L}$ is the set of limit points of the sequence $\{(p_{n+1}-p_n)/\log…

Given a closed, oriented Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a Liouville domain $\overline{M}$, one can define a Maurer-Cartan element with respect to a certain $L_\infty$-structure on the string homology…

We study a quantity called discrete layered entropy, which approximates the Shannon entropy within a logarithmic gap. Compared to the Shannon entropy, the discrete layered entropy is piecewise linear, approximates the expected length of the…

In this manuscript, we initiate the study of the number of rational points with bounded denominators, contained in a non-isotropic $\delta_1\times\ldots\times \delta_R$ neighborhood of a compact submanifold $\mathcal{M}$ of codimension $R$…

We estimate the number of incidences in a configuration of $m$ lines and $n$ points in dimension 3. The main term is $mn^{1/3}$ if we work over the real or complex numbers but $mn^{2/5}$ over finite fields. Both of these are optimal, aside…

Given any irrational number $\alpha$, we show that for any $0<\theta<6/17$, there are infinitely many $y$-smooth (friable) numbers $n$ such that $$\|n\alpha\| < n^{-\theta},$$ where $(\log n)^C\leq y\leq n$ for some large constant $C>0$.…

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be real numbers such that $1$, $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$. A classical result of Dirichlet asserts that there are infinitely many triples of integers $(x_0,x_1,x_2)$ such that…
