The classical theorem of Erd\H os \& Wintner furnishes a criterion for the existence of a limiting distribution for a real, additive arithmetical function. This work is devoted to providing an effective estimate for the remainder term under…
We give a purely combinatorial proof for a two-fold generalization of van der Waerden-Brauer's theorem and Hindman's theorem. We also give tower bounds for a finite version of it.
We prove the constructive version of Birkhoff's ergodic theorem following Vyugin but trying to separate and state explicitly the combinatorial statement on which this proof is based. We pose some questions related to this statement (and the…
A logic-enriched type theory (LTT) is a type theory extended with a primitive mechanism for forming and proving propositions. We construct two LTTs, named LTTO and LTTO*, which we claim correspond closely to the classical predicative…
In 1931 de Finetti proved what is known as his Dutch Book Theorem. This result implies that the finite additivity {\it axiom} for the probability of the disjunction of two incompatible events becomes a {\it consequence} of de Finetti's…
Eberhard-type theorems are statements about the realizability of a polytope (or more general polyhedral maps) given the valency of its vertices and sizes of its polygonal faces up to a linear linear degree of freedom. We present new…
We establish a variety of extensions to the Erdos-Rado Theorem, particularly involving ordinal numbers, and always involving ordinary partition relations. Most of the results can be regarded as consequences of the Ramification Principle,…
Regular and exact categories were first introduced by Michael Barr in 1971; since then, the theory has developed and found many applications in algebra, geometry, and logic. In particular, a small regular category determines a certain…
Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture was proposed by P. Erd\H{o}s in 1974. The conjecture remains open for exponentially decaying sequences as well as Cantor sets that have both Newhouse thickness and Hausdorff dimension zero. In this article,…
More that half a century ago R. Thom asserted in an unpublished manuscript that, generically, vector fields on compact connected smooth manifolds without boundary can admit only trivial continuous first integrals. Though somehow unprecise…
We give a purely combinatorial proof for the infinitary van der Waerden's theorem.
We apply ideas from the theory of limits of dense combinatorial structures to study order types, which are combinatorial encodings of finite point sets. Using flag algebras we obtain new numerical results on the Erd\H{o}s problem of finding…
Let p_n denote the sequence of all primes and let d_n=p_n-p_{n-1} denote the sequence of all gaps between consecutive primes. In 1948 Erd\H{o}s and Tur\'an showed that d_{n+1}-d_n changes sign infinitely often and together with P\'olya…
In the paper we obtain some new applications of well--known W. Rudin's theorem concerning lacunary series to problems of combinatorial number theory. We generalize a result of M.-C. Chang on L_2 (L)-norm of Fourier coefficients of a set…
A fundamental problem from invariant theory is to describe the endomorphism algebra of multilinear functions on a representation V invariant under the action of a group G. According to Weyl's classic, a first main (later: fundamental)…
A classical theorem of S. Bochner states that a function $f:R^n \to C$ is the Fourier transform of a finite Borel measure if and only if $f$ is positive definite. In 1938, I. Schoenberg found a beautiful complement to Bochner's theorem. We…
The famous Erdos-Heilbronn conjecture plays an important role in the development of additive combinatorics. In 2007 Z. W. Sun made the following further conjecture (which is the linear extension of the Erdos-Heilbronn conjecture): For any…
The goal of this paper is to lay the foundations for a combinatorial study, via orthogonal functions and intertwining operators, of category O for the rational Cherednik algebra of type G(r,p,n). As a first application, we give a…
The Bateman-Horn conjecture is a far-reaching statement about the distribution of the prime numbers. It implies many known results, such as the prime number theorem and the Green-Tao theorem, along with many famous conjectures, such the…
About twenty years ago, Green wrote a survey article on the utility of looking at toy versions over finite fields of problems in additive combinatorics. This article was extremely influential, and the rapid development of additive…
