We partly extend the localisation technique from convex geometry to the multiple constraints setting. For a given $1$-Lipschitz map $u\colon\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m$, $m\leq n$, we define and prove the existence of a partition of…

We prove a Kahane-Khinchin type result with a few random vectors, which are distributed independently with respect to an arbitrary log-concave probability measure on $\R^n$. This is an application of small ball estimate and Chernoff's…

We show that the conjecture of Kannan, Lov\'{a}sz, and Simonovits on isoperimetric properties of convex bodies and log-concave measures, is true for log-concave measures of the form $\rho(|x|_B)dx$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\rho(t,|x|_B) dx$…

The purpose of this note is to explain that the combinatorial local log-concavity conjecture introduced by Gross, Mansour, Tucker and Wang (Eur. J. Comb. 52, 207-222, 2016) in fact follows from a result of Stanley (Eur. J. Comb. 32 (6),…

A famous conjecture of Littlewood (c. 1930) concerns approximating two real numbers by rationals of the same denominator, multiplying the errors. In a lesser-known paper, Wang and Yu (1981) established an asymptotic formula for the number…

An approximate formula for the partitions of Goldbach's Conjecture is derived using Prime Number Theorem and a heuristic probabilistic approach. A strong form of Goldbach's conjecture follows in the form of a lower bounding function for the…

We compare and combine two approaches that have been recently introduced by Dafnis and Paouris [DP] and by Klartag and Milman [KM] with the aim of providing bounds for the isotropic constants of convex bodies. By defining a new hereditary…

We consider time-dependent space isotropic and time stationary spherical Gaussian random fields. We establish Chung's law of the iterated logarithm and solve the small probabilities problem. Our results depend on the high-frequency…

We show that the Cheeger constant for $n$-dimensional isotropic logconcave measures is $O(n^{1/4})$, improving on the previous best bound of $O(n^{1/3}\sqrt{\log n}).$ As corollaries we obtain the same improved bound on the thin-shell…

Even though Zaremba's conjecture remains open, Bourgain and Kontorovich solved the problem for a full density subset. Nevertheless, there are only a handful of explicit sequences known to satisfy the strong version of the conjecture, all of…

In the context of bounding probability of small deviation, there are limited general tools. However, such bounds have been widely applied in graph theory and inventory management. We introduce a common approach to substantially sharpen such…

The Cabling Conjecture of Gonz\'alez-Acu\~na and Short holds that only cable knots admit Dehn surgery to a manifold containing an essential sphere. We approach this conjecture for thin knots using Heegaard Floer homology, primarily via…

We show that an earlier conjecture of the author, on diophantine approximation of rational points on varieties, implies the ``abc conjecture'' of Masser and Oesterl'e. In fact, a weak form of the former conjecture is sufficient, involving…

Lothar Collatz had proposed in 1937 a conjecture in number theory called Collatz conjecture. Till today there is no evidence of proving or disproving the conjecture. In this paper, we propose an algorithmic approach for verification of the…

This paper takes a new step in the direction of proving the Duffin-Schaeffer Conjecture for measures arbitrarily close to Lebesgue. The main result is that under a mild `extra divergence' hypothesis, the conjecture is true.
