In this paper, we investigate the trace set of a Fuchsian lattice. There are two results of this paper: the first is that for a non-uniform lattice, we prove Scmutz's conjecture: the trace set of a Fuchsian lattice exhibits linear growth if…

This article studies the sequence of iterative degrees of a birational map of the plane. This sequence is known either to be bounded or to have a linear, quadratic or exponential growth. The classification elements of infinite order with a…

Infinite antichains of permutations have long been used to construct interesting permutation classes and counterexamples. We prove the existence and detail the construction of infinite antichains with arbitrarily large growth rates. As a…

We give effective bounds on the generation of pushforwards of log-pluricanonical bundles twisted by ample line bundles. This gives a partial answer to a conjecture proposed by Popa and Schnell. We prove two types of statements: first, more…

We give an infinite family of knots such that for any given $r \geq 3$, the family contains a knot which can be embedded on a hexagonal $r$-mosaic, but cannot fit on a hexagonal $r$-mosaic in an embedding that achieves its crossing number.…

We discuss how to construct limit shapes for the domino tiling model (square lattice dimer model) and $5$-vertex model, in appropriate polygonal domains. Our methods are based on the harmonic extension method of [R. Kenyon and I. Prause,…

We study widths of conjugacy classes in anisotropic higher rank $S$-arithmetic groups of orthogonal type. Assuming the GRH, we prove that many such groups have bounded conjugacy width. For example, this holds if the degree is greater or…

We prove that every infinite sequence of skew-symmetric or symmetric matrices M_1, M_2, ... over a fixed finite field must have a pair M_i, M_j (i<j) such that M_i is isomorphic to a principal submatrix of the Schur complement of a…

We investigate the class of finite dimensional not necessary associative algebras that have slowly growing length, that is, for any algebra in this class its length is less than or equal to its dimension. We show that this class is…

We prove that the presence or absence of corners is spectrally determined in the following sense: any simply connected domain with piecewise smooth Lipschitz boundary cannot be isospectral to any connected domain, of any genus, which has…

It was recently shown that velocity-dependent forces between parallel fundamental strings moving apart in a $D-$dimensional spacetime implied an accelerating expanding universe in $D-1$-dimensional space-time. Exact solutions were obtained…

We find infinite families of supersymmetric solutions of four dimensional, N=2 gauged supergravity with Lifshitz, Schrodinger and also AdS symmetries. We focus on the canonical example of a single hypermultiplet and a single vector…

From the point of view of optimization, a critical issue is relating the combinatorial diameter of a polyhedron to its number of facets $f$ and dimension $d$. In the seminal paper of Klee and Walkup [KW67], the Hirsch conjecture of an upper…

For $d \geq 4$ and $p$ a sufficiently large prime, we construct a lattice $\Gamma \leq {\rm PSp}_{2d}(\mathbb Q_p),$ such that its universal central extension cannot be sofic if $\Gamma$ satisfies some weak form of stability in…

Grotzsch proved that every triangle-free planar graph is 3-colorable. Thomassen proved that every planar graph of girth at least five is 3-choosable. As for other surfaces, Thomassen proved that there are only finitely many 4-critical…

In a recent work, Tachikawa and Zhang proved the existence of a discrete topological term in the unique non-supersymmetric heterotic string with no tachyons in ten dimensions. This theory features NS5-branes, whose chiral degrees of freedom…

We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…

We consider brane-world models embedded in a five-dimensional bulk spacetime with a large extra dimension and a cosmological constant. The cosmology in $5D$ possesses "wave-like" character in the sense that the metric coefficients in the…

We provide an upper bound on the Cheeger constant and first eigenvalue of the Laplacian of a finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold M, in terms of data from any surgery diagram for M. This has several consequences. We prove that a family of…

We prove that functions defined on a lattice in a finite dimensional torus with bounded finite differences can be smoothly extended to the whole torus, and relate the bounds on the extension's derivatives with bounds on the original…
