We construct a bi-Lipschitz bijection from the Boolean cube to the Hamming ball of equal volume. More precisely, we show that for all even n there exists an explicit bijection f from the n-dimensional Boolean cube to the Hamming ball of…
In this paper we give a very natural description of the bijections between the minimal CW-complex homotopy equivalent to the complement of a supersolvable arrangement $\mathcal{A}$, the $\textbf{nbc}$ basis of the Orlik-Solomon algebra…
The McKay Conjecture (MC) asserts the existence of a bijection between the (inequivalent) complex irreducible representations of degree coprime to $p$ ($p$ a prime) of a finite group $G$ and those of the subgroup $N$, the normalizer of…
Let $A \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ be a set of size $2^{n-1}$, and let $\phi \colon \{0,1\}^{n-1} \to A$ be a bijection. We define the average stretch of $\phi$ as ${\sf avgStretch}(\phi) = {\mathbb E}[{\sf dist}(\phi(x),\phi(x'))]$, where the…
We prove anti-concentration bounds for the inner product of two independent random vectors, and use these bounds to prove lower bounds in communication complexity. We show that if $A,B$ are subsets of the cube $\{\pm 1\}^n$ with $|A| \cdot…
We use geometric arguments to prove explicit bounds on the mean oscillation for two important rearrangements on $\mathbb{R}^n$. For the decreasing rearrangement $f^*$ of a rearrangeable function $f$ of bounded mean oscillation (BMO) on…
We prove that the symmetric-cube coefficients $A_n=(-27)^n[z^n]\,_2F_1(1/3,1/3;1;z)^3$ satisfy the supercongruence $A(mp)\equiv A(m) \bmod p^4$ for every prime $p\geq 5$ and every $m\geq 1$. The proof rests on three ingredients: (i) the…
We carry out an arithmetical study of analytic functions $f: [0,1] \to [0,1]$ that by restriction induce a bijection $\mathbb{Q} \cap [0,1] \to \mathbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$. The existence of such functions shows that, unless $f(x)$ has some…
Let $p\in(0,1)$, $\alpha:=1/p-1$ and, for any $\tau\in [0,\infty)$, $\Phi_{p}(\tau):=\tau/(1+\tau^{1-p})$. Let $H^p(\mathbb R^n)$, $h^p(\mathbb R^n)$ and $\Lambda_{n\alpha}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ be, respectively, the Hardy space, the local Hardy…
Let $\mathcal H$ be a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space with dimension $n \ge 3$ and $\mathcal P(\mathcal H)$ the set of projections on $\mathcal H$. Let $\varphi: \mathcal P(\mathcal H) \to \mathcal P(\mathcal H)$ be a surjective…
A {\em Wakeford pairing} from $S$ onto $T$ is a bijection $\phi : S \to T$ such that $x\phi(x)\notin T,$ for every $x\in S.$ The number of such pairings will be denoted by $\mu(S,T)$. Let $A$ and $ B$ be finite subsets of a group $G$ with…
