Let $G$ be a semisimple connected Lie group of non-compact type with finite center. Let $K<G$ be a maximal compact subgroup and $P<G$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup. For any pair $(F,x)$, where $F$ is a maximal flat in $G/K$ and $x \in…

We present a method to obtain upper bounds on covering numbers. As applications of this method, we reprove and generalize results of Rogers on economically covering Euclidean $n$-space with translates of a convex body, or more generally,…

In this paper we investigate the Erd\"os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We prove a good upper bound for spherical means that have been…

Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a local ring of prime characteristic $p$ of dimension $d$ with the embedding dimension $v$. Suppose the Frobenius test exponent for parameter ideals $Fte(R)$ of $R$ is finite, and let $Q = p^{Fte(R)}$. It is shown that…

We use recent advances on the discretized sum-product problem to obtain new bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of planar $(\alpha,2\alpha)$-Fursterberg sets. This provides a quantitative improvement to the $2\alpha+\epsilon$ bound of…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be the algebraic closure of a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic $p$. For a positive integer $m$ prime to $p$, let $F=\mathbb{K}(x,y)$ be the transcendency degree $1$ function field defined by…

We develop a new approach to approximate families of sets, complementing the existing `$\Delta$-system method' and `junta approximations method'. The approach, which we refer to as `spread approximations method', is based on the notion of…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be an arbitrary finite field, and $\mathcal{E}$ be a set of points in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. Let $\Delta(\mathcal{E})$ be the set of distances determined by pairs of points in $\mathcal{E}$. By using the Kloosterman sums,…

Let $f_{1}, \ldots, f_{k}$ be polynomials defining an algebraic set in affine $n$-space over a finite field. Suppose $k>n$. We prove that there exists a system of polynomials $g_{1}, \ldots, g_{n}$, each being a linear combination with…

Let $U$ be a point set in the $n$-dimensional affine space ${\rm AG}(n,q)$ over the finite field of $q$ elements and $0\leq k\leq n-2$. In this paper we extend the definition of directions determined by $U$: a $k$-dimensional subspace $S_k$…

Let $\Lambda \subset \mathbb R^n$ be an algebraic lattice, coming from a projective module over the ring of integers of a number field $K$. Let $\mathcal Z \subset \mathbb R^n$ be the zero locus of a finite collection of polynomials such…

We call a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]$ $s$-saturated if it contains no $s$ pairwise disjoint sets, and moreover no set can be added to $\mathcal{F}$ while preserving this property (here $[n] = \{1,\ldots,n\}$). More than 40…

In the 1960's, Birch proved that the traces of Frobenius for elliptic curves taken at random over a large finite field is modeled by the semicircular distribution (i.e. the usual Sato-Tate for non-CM elliptic curves). In analogy with…

Let us consider a generalized Artin-Schreier algebraic function field extension $F$ of the rational function field $\F_{p^n}(x)$ defined over the finite field extension $K=\F_{p^n}$ of the prime field $\F_p$. We assume that $K$ is…

In recent years there has been a lot of interest in the study of isometry invariant Poisson processes of $k$-flats in $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$, for $0\le k\le d-1$. A phenomenon that has no counterpart in euclidean…

An s-cap n-flat is given by a set of s points, no three of which are on a common line, in an n-dimensional affine space over the field of three elements. The cap set problem in dimension n is: what is the maximum s such that there is an…

The well-known Reifenberg theorem states that if a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be well approximated by $k$-planes at every point and every scale, then it is biH\"older homeomorphic to a $k$-disk. This article concerns a subset $S$ of…

We study dimensions of sumsets and iterated sumsets and provide natural conditions which guarantee that a set $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ satisfies $\overline{\dim}_\text{B} F+F > \overline{\dim}_\text{B} F$ or even $\dim_\text{H} n F \to 1$.…

For a finite set $\cal F$ of polynomials over fixed finite prime field of size $p$ containing all polynomials $x^2 - x$ a Nullstellensatz proof of the unsolvability of the system $$ f = 0\ ,\ \mbox{ all } f \in {\cal F} $$ in the field is a…

We say that $E$ is a microset of the compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ if there exist sequences $\lambda_n\geq 1$ and $u_n\in \mathbb{R}^d$ such that $(\lambda_n K + u_n ) \cap [0,1]^d$ converges to $E$ in the Hausdorff metric, and…
