Let $\mathbf{A}=\{A_i\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of sets with each $A_i$ being a non-empty collection of $0$-$1$ sequences of length $i$. For $x\in [0,1)$, the maximal run-length function $\ell_n(x,\mathbf{A})$ (with respect to…
Let $S \subset {\mathbb R}^d$ be contained in the unit ball. Let $\Delta(S)=\{||a-b||:a,b \in S\}$, the Euclidean distance set of $S$. Falconer conjectured that the $\Delta(S)$ has positive Lebesque measure if the Hausdorff dimension of $S$…
The Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture asserted that an infinite set of real numbers cannot be affinely embedded into every measurable set of positive Lebesgue measure. The problem is still open, in particular for all fast decaying sequences.…
Burkill and Mirsky, and Kalmanson, prove independently that, for every $r\ge 2, n\ge 1$, there is a sequence of $r^{2^n}$ vectors in $\mathbb R^n$, which does not contain a subsequence of $r+1$ vectors $v^1, v^2,\dots,v^{r+1}$ such that,…
The Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres conjecture states that any set of more than $2^{n-2}$ points in the plane with no three on a line contains the vertices of a convex $n$-gon. Erd\H{o}s, Tuza, and Valtr strengthened the conjecture by stating that any…
Hu and Ye conjectured that for a $k$-th order and $n$-dimensional tensor $\mathcal{A}$ with an eigenvalue $\lambda$ and the corresponding eigenvariety $\mathcal{V}_\lambda(\mathcal{A})$, $$\mathrm{am}(\lambda) \ge \sum_{i=1}^\kappa…
Let $A(x): =(A_{i, j}(x))$ be a continuous function defined on some subshift of $\Omega:= \{0,1, \cdots, m-1\}^\mathbb{N}$, taking $d\times d$ non-negative matrices as values and let $\nu$ be an ergodic $\sigma$-invariant measure on the…
A well known theorem due to Koksma states that for Lebesgue almost every $x>1$ the sequence $(x^n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is uniformly distributed modulo one. In this paper we give sufficient conditions for an analogue of this theorem to hold for…
This paper discovers a new phenomenon about the Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture, which claims that $\lambda(\cap_{m=1}^{\infty}\cup_{n=m}^{\infty}{\mathcal E}_n)=1$ if and only if $\sum_n\lambda({\mathcal E}_n)=\infty$, where $\lambda$ denotes…
We prove that if any $\lfloor3d/2 \rfloor$ or fewer elements of a finite family of linear operators $\mathbb K^d\to \mathbb K^d$ ($\mathbb K$ is an arbitrary field) have a common eigenvector then all operators in the family have a common…
Erd\"{o}s proved that for every infinite $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ there is $Y \subseteq X$ with $|Y|=|X|$, such that all pairs of points from $Y$ have distinct distances, and he gave partial results for general $a$-ary volume. In this…
A recent suggestion that vector potentials in electrodynamics (ED) are nontensorial objects under 4D frame rotations is found to be both unnecessary and confusing. As traditionally used in ED, a vector potential $A$ always transforms…
Let $E \subset B(1) \subset \mathbb R^{2}$ be an $\mathcal{H}^{1}$ measurable set with $\mathcal{H}^{1}(E) < \infty$, and let $L \subset \mathbb R^{2}$ be a line segment with $\mathcal{H}^{1}(L) = \mathcal{H}^{1}(E)$. It is not hard to see…
Let $x(n):=\alpha n^d \mod 1$ for integer $d >1$ and non-zero real $\alpha$. We show that $\{x(n)\}_{n>0}$ has Poissonian $\ell$-point correlations for almost all choices of $\alpha$ when $d$ is large (depending on $\ell$). This falls in…
Given a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, we define \begin{align*} \mathrm{conv}_k(A) := \left\{ \lambda_1 s_1 + \cdots + \lambda_k s_k : \lambda_i \in [0,1], \sum_{i=1}^k \lambda_i = 1 , s_i \in A \right\} \end{align*} to be the set of vectors…
This paper presents a systematic study for the general theory of non-Abelian Fourier series of integrable functions on the homogeneous space $\mathbf{\Gamma}\backslash SE(d)$, where $SE(d)$ is the special Euclidean group in dimension $d$,…
Let $F$ be a Bedford-McMullen carpet defined by independent exponents. We prove that $\overline{\dim}_B (\ell \cap F) \leq \max \lbrace \dim^* F -1,0 \rbrace$ for all lines $\ell$ not parallel to the principal axes, where $\dim^*$ is…
A weak version of Birkhoff's generalization of the Perron-Frobenius theorem states that every endomorphism of a finite-dimensional real vector that leaves invariant a non-degenerate closed convex cone has an eigenvector in that cone. Here,…
A theorem of Erdos asserts that every infinite subset of Euclidean n-space R^n has a subset of the same cardinality having no repeated distances. This theorem is generalized here as follows: If (R^n,E) is an algebraic hypergraph that does…
In this paper, we prove some new thickness theorems with partial derivatives. We give some applications. First, we give a simple criterion that can judge whether two scaled Cantor sets have non-empty intersection. Second, we prove under…
