We construct Salem sets on the real line with endpoint Fourier decay and near-endpoint regularity properties. This complements a result of \L aba and Pramanik, who obtained near-endpoint Fourier decay and endpoint regularity properties. We…
We consider limits of $\mathcal{N} = 4$ super-Yang-Mills (SYM) theory that approach BPS bounds. These limits result in non-relativistic theories that describe the effective dynamics near the BPS bounds and upon quantization are known as…
A set of lines in $\mathbb{R}^d$ passing through the origin is called equiangular if any two lines in the set form the same angle. We proved an alternative version of the three-point semidefinite constraints developed by Bachoc and…
A point process is R-dependent, if it behaves independently beyond the minimum distance R. This work investigates uniform positive lower bounds on the avoidance functions of R-dependent simple point processes with a common intensity.…
We investigate threshold phenomena for random polytopes $K_N=\conv\{X_1,\dots,X_N\}$ generated by i.i.d.\ samples from an atomic law $\mu$. We identify and provide a missing justification in the discrete-hypercube threshold argument of…
In this paper we study the number of four-rich points defined by pencils of certain algebraic objects. Our main result concerns the number of four-rich points defined by four sheaves of planes; under certain non-degeneracy conditions, we…
We show that soft spheres interacting with a linear ramp potential when overcompressed beyond the jamming point fall in an amorphous solid phase which is critical, mechanically marginally stable and share many features with the jamming…
The application of quantum estimation theory to the problem of imaging two incoherent point sources has recently led to new insights and better measurements for incoherent imaging and spectroscopy. To establish a more general limit beyond…
Physical effects in brane worlds models emerge by the incorporation of field modes coming from extra dimensions with the usual four dimensional ones. Such effects can be tested with well established experiments to set bounds on the…
Since the 1960's the finite element method emerged as a powerful tool for the numerical simulation of countless physical phenomena or processes in applied sciences. One of the reasons for this undeniable success is the great versatility of…
We study on-shell scattering amplitudes for continuous-spin particles (CSPs). Poincar\'e invariance, little-group $ISO(2)$ covariance, analyticity, and on-shell factorisation (unitarity) impose stringent conditions on these amplitudes. We…
We consider a system of fermions with local interactions on a lattice (Hubbard model) and apply a novel extension of the Laplace's method (saddle-point approximation) for evaluating the corresponding partition function. There, we introduce…
We study the free energy of four-dimensional CFTs on deformed spheres. For generic nonsupersymmetric CFTs only the coefficient of the logarithmic divergence in the free energy is physical, which is an extremum for the round sphere. We then…
Bi-quadratic programming over unit spheres is a fundamental problem in quantum mechanics introduced by pioneer work of Einstein, Schr\"odinger, and others. It has been shown to be NP-hard; so it must be solve by efficient heuristic…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not 2 or 3. We establish polynomial lower bounds on the ambient dimension $N$ for an intersection $X\subset\mathbb{P}^N$ of quadrics, cubics and quartics to have a dense collection of solvable points,…
We characterize the boundary at infinity of a complex hyperbolic space as a compact Ptolemy space that satisfies four incidence axioms.
The main purpose of this paper is to prove that the point-line incidence bound due to Vinh (2011) over arbitrary finite fields can be improved in certain ranges by using tools from the VC-dimension theory. As consequences, a number of…
In this paper we study the problem of maximizing the distance to a given point over an intersection of balls. It was already known that this problem can be solved in polynomial time and space if the given point is not in the convex hull of…
The near-field acoustic scattering from a sphere centered on the axis of a finite Bessel acoustic beam is derived stemming from the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction surface integral and the addition theorems for the spherical wave and…
We are interested to bound from below the number of distinct dot products determined by a finite set of points $P$ in the Euclidean plane. In this paper, we build on the work of B. Hanson, O. Roche-Newton, and S. Senger, to obtain the…
