We study the spectrum of the Laplacian on the Sierpinski lattices. First, we show that the spectrum of the Laplacian, as a subset of $\mathbb{C}$, remains the same for any $\ell^p$ spaces. Second, we characterize all the spectral points for…

We study the minimal number of existential quantifiers needed to define a diophantine set over a field and relate this number to the essential dimension of the functor of points associated to such a definition.

Recently in joint work with E. Sert, we proved sharp boundedness results on discrete fractional integral operators along binary quadratic forms. Present work vastly enhances the scope of those results by extending boundedness to bivariate…

We study metric Diophantine approximation in local fields of positive characteristic. Specifically, we study the problem of improving Dirichlet's theorem in Diophantine approximation and prove very general results in this context.

A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…

We study the optical response of a 2D square lattice of atoms using classical electrodynamics. Due to dipole-dipole interactions, the lattice atoms polarize as if the lattice were an atom with up to three resonance frequencies, with…

In this paper, we give the spectrum of a matrix by using the quotient matrix, then we apply this result to various matrices associated to a graph and a digraph, including adjacency matrix, (signless) Laplacian matrix, distance matrix,…

We introduce a novel concept in topological dynamics, referred to as $k$-divergence, which extends the notion of divergent orbits. Motivated by questions in the theory of inhomogeneous Diophantine approximations, we investigate this notion…

We present a sharpening of nondivergence estimates for unipotent (or more generally polynomial-like) flows on homogeneous spaces. Applied to metric Diophantine approximation, it yields precise formulas for Diophantine exponents of affine…

We prove a polynomially effective equidistribution result for expanding translates in the space of $d$-dimensional affine lattices for any $d\ge 2$.

In this paper we show a way to generalize the linear Diophantine equation a1x1+a2x2+...+anxn=d . We deal with the nonlinear Diophantine equation det|A X|=+-d , which generalizes the linear one, and we give a necessary and sufficient…

We provide a lower bound for the ratio between the ordinary and uniform exponent of both simultaneous Diophantine approximation and Diophantine approximation by linear forms in any dimension. This lower bound was conjectured by Schmidt and…

The structure of the spectrum of the three-dimensional Dirichlet Laplacian in the 3D polyhedral layer of fixed width is studied. It appears that the essential spectrum is defined by the smallest dihedral angle that forms the boundary of the…

The diffraction spectra of lattice gas models on Z^d with finite-range ferromagnetic two-body interaction above T_c or with certain rates of decay of the potential are considered. We show that these diffraction spectra almost surely exist,…
