In 1961, P. Erd\H{o}s, A. Ginzburg, and A. Ziv proved a remarkable theorem stating that each set of $2n-1$ integers contains a subset of size $n$, the sum of whose elements is divisible by $n$. We will prove a similar result for pairs of…

In this paper we study certain variational aspects of the volume product functional restricted to the space of small projective deformations of a fixed convex body. In doing so, we provide a short proof of a theorem by Klartag: a strong…

In this paper, we provide explicit lower bounds with respect to some quantities of interest (parameters of the underlying distribution, dimension, geometrical characteristics of the domain, position of the origin, etc.) on the spectral gap…

We propose a program for establishing a conjectural extension to the class of (origin-symmetric) log-concave probability measures $\mu$, of the classical dual Sudakov Minoration on the expectation of the supremum of a Gaussian process:…

We prove two conjectures on sums of products of Catalan triangle numbers, which were originally conjectured by Miana, Ohtsuka, and Romero [Discrete Math. 340 (2017), 2388--2397]. The first one is proved by using Zeilberger's algorithm, and…

Since the introduction of the Sliced Wasserstein distance in the literature, its simplicity and efficiency have made it one of the most interesting surrogate for the Wasserstein distance in image processing and machine learning. However,…

For a long time, Collatz Conjecture has been assumed to be true, although a formal proof has eluded all efforts to date. In this article, evidence is presented that suggests such an assumption is incorrect. By analysing the stopping times…

We present an alternative approach to the result of Guentner, Higson, and Weinberger concerning the Baum-Connes conjecture for finitely generated subgroups of SL(2,C). Using finite-dimensional methods, we show that the Baum-Connes assembly…

We prove Rietsch's mirror conjecture that the Dubrovin quantum connection for minuscule flag varieties is isomorphic to the character D-module of the Berenstein-Kazhdan geometric crystal. The idea is to recognize the quantum connection as…

We develop a theory of the field of double Laurent series, iterated Laurent series, and Malcev-Neumann series that applies to most constant term evaluation problems. These include (i) MacMahon's partition analysis, counting solutions of…

In an article published in 1993, P. Colmez formulated a remarkable conjecture, which asserts that the Faltings height of a CM abelian variety can be computed as a linear combination of logarithmic derivatives of Artin $L$-functions. Noting…

We make effective $l^2 L^p$ decoupling for the parabola in the range $4 < p < 6$. In an appendix joint with Jean Bourgain, we apply the main theorem to prove the conjectural bound for the sixth-order correlation of the integer solutions of…
