In this article we obtain new irrationality measures for values of functions which belong to a certain class of hypergeometric functions including shifted logarithmic functions, binomial functions and shifted exponential functions. We…
This work addresses problems on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on fractals, motivated by a long standing problem of Mahler regarding Cantor's middle $1/3$ set. We obtain the first instances where a complete analogue of Khintchine's…
By Dulac maps we mean first return maps of hyperbolic polycycles of analytic planar vector fields. We study the fractal properties of the orbits of a parabolic Dulac map. To this end, we prove that it admits a Fatou coordinate with an…
We prove that if $E$ is a planar self-similar set with similarity dimension $d$ whose defining maps generate a dense set of rotations, then the $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the orthogonal projection of $E$ onto any line is zero. We…
We combine new HST/ACS observations and existing data to investigate the wavelength dependence of NIR extinction. Previous studies suggest a power-law form, with a "universal" value of the exponent, although some recent observations…
By definition, a rigid graph in $\mathbb{R}^d$ (or on a sphere) has a finite number of embeddings up to rigid motions for a given set of edge length constraints. These embeddings are related to the real solutions of an algebraic system.…
Let $G$ be a dense graph with good expansion properties and not too close to being bipartite. Let $\boldsymbol d$ be a graphical degree sequence. Under very weak conditions, we find the number of subgraphs of $G$ with degree sequence…
Let $f_i(P)$ denote the number of $i$-dimensional faces of a convex polytope $P$. Furthermore, let $S(n,d)$ and $C(n,d)$ denote, respectively, the stacked and the cyclic $d$-dimensional polytopes on $n$ vertices. Our main result is that for…
Let $F_{k,d}(n)$ be the maximal size of a set ${A}\subseteq [n]$ such that the equation \[a_1a_2\dots a_k=x^d, \; a_1<a_2<\ldots<a_k\] has no solution with $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k\in {A}$ and integer $x$. Erd\H{o}s, S\'ark\"ozy and T. S\'os…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the nodal length of random $2d$-spherical harmonics $f_{\ell}$ of high degree $\ell \rightarrow\infty$, i.e. the length of their zero set $f_{\ell}^{-1}(0)$. It is found that the nodal lengths are…
Central limit theorems are established for the sum, over a spatial region, of observations from a linear process on a $d$-dimensional lattice. This region need not be rectangular, but can be irregularly-shaped. Separate results are…
In this paper, we find all sums of two Fibonacci numbers which are close to a power of 2. As a corollary, we also determine all Lucas numbers close to a power of 2. The main tools used in this work are lower bounds for linear forms in…
In a recent paper, the first author provided some lower bounds to solutions of the equations of Fermat and Catalan, based on local power series developments at the ramified prime of a prime cyclotomic extension. Although both equations have…
In this work, we introduce the notion of Gevrey asymptotic expansion and we show how the classical concept of a convergent power series can be generalized to include the case in which the radius of convergence is zero. This technique can be…
A central issue in the thermodynamics of nonsingular black holes is the apparent violation of the first law. In this work, we use 2D dilaton gravity as a simple theoretical setting to study this issue. We systematically construct a broad…
We prove that for any degree d, there exist (families of) finite sequences a_0, a_1,..., a_d of positive numbers such that, for any real polynomial P of degree d, the number of its real roots is less than or equal to the number of the…
This is the second in a series of articles devoted to showing that a typical covering map of large degree to a fixed, regular graph has its new adjacency eigenvalues within the bound conjectured by Alon for random regular graphs. The first…
Given a power $q$ of a prime number $p$ and "nice" polynomials $f_1,...,f_r\in\bbF_q[T,X]$ with $r=1$ if $p=2$, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs $(a_1,a_2)\in\bbF_q^2$ such that…
Generally, ``fracton'' topological orders are referred to as gapped phases that support \textit{point-like topological excitations} whose mobility is, to some extent, restricted. In our previous work [Phys. Rev. B 101, 245134 (2020)], a…
We consider the sum of power weighted nearest neighbor distances in a sample of size n from a multivariate density f of possibly unbounded support. We give various criteria guaranteeing that this sum satisfies a law of large numbers for…
