Let $w$ be any word over the alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots, q-1\}$, and denote by $h$ either a polynomial of degree $d\geq 1$ or $h: n\mapsto m^n$ for a fixed $m$. Furthermore, denote by $e_q(w;h(n))$ the number of occurrences of $w$ as a subword…

We examine the large systole problem, which concerns compact hyperbolic Riemannian surfaces whose systole, the length of the shortest noncontractible loops, grows logarithmically in genus. The generalization of a construction of Buser and…

We generalize the notion of Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a graded triple $(M,R,I)$ in characteristic $p>0$ by proving that for any complex number $y$, the limit $$\underset{n \to \infty}{\lim}(\frac{1}{p^n})^{\text{dim}(M)}\sum \limits_{j=…

We give a simple proof of the fact that an "$f$-estimate" for the $\bar\partial$-Neumann problem implies a lower bound on the geomatric type of the boundary along any complex one dimensional variety. The proof uses the existence of peak…

We present a new form and a short full proof of explicit two-sided estimates for the distribution function F_{n,p}(x) of the binomial law from the paper published by D.Alfers and H.Dinges in 1984. These inequalities are universal (valid for…

In 1980 Carleson posed a question on the minimal regularity of an initial data function in a Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{R}^n)$ that implies pointwise convergence for the solution of the linear Schr\"odinger equation. After progress by many…

We establish that \[\sum_{m=1}^\infty \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_m \overline{a_n} \frac{mn}{(\max(m,n))^3} \leq \frac{4}{3}\sum_{m=1}^\infty |a_m|^2\] holds for every square-summable sequence of complex numbers $a = (a_1,a_2,\ldots)$ and that the…

We derive a lower bound for the subword complexity of the base-$b$ expansion ($b\geq 2$) of all real numbers whose irrationality exponent is equal to 2. This provides a generalization of a theorem due to Ferenczi and Mauduit. As a…

Let L(s) = L(s, \pi) be the standard L-function of a cuspidal representation \pi of GL(m,A) where A denotes the ad\`eles of the field of rationals. We consider the integral, on the real line Re(s)= 1/2, of the squared absolute value of…

We study a finite form of the classical interval discrepancy problem. Starting from the unit interval, one repeatedly splits an existing interval into two until $n$ intervals have been produced. The discrepancy of such a process is the…

Recent progress on Vinogradov's mean value theorem has resulted in improved estimates for exponential sums of Weyl type. We apply these new estimates to obtain sharper bounds for the function $H(k)$ in the Waring--Goldbach problem. We…

For $2\leq s<t$, the Erd\H{o}s-Rogers function $f_{s,t}(n)$ measures how large a $K_s$-free induced subgraph there must be in a $K_t$-free graph on $n$ vertices. There has been an extensive amount of work towards estimating this function,…

The Landau-Kolmogorov problem consists of finding the upper bound $M_k$ for the norm of intermediate derivative $|f^{(k)}|$, when the bounds $|f| \le M_0$ and $|f^{(n)}| \le M_n$, for the norms of the function and of its higher derivative,…

The Riemann-Lebesque Theorem is commonly proved in a few strokes using the theory of Lebesque integration. Here, the upper bound $2\pi|c_k(f)|\le S_k(f)-s_k(f)$ for the Fourier coefficients $c_k$ is proved in terms of majoring and minoring…

Frankl and F\"uredi conjectured in 1989 that the maximum Lagrangian of all $r$-uniform hypergraphs of fixed size $m$ is realised by the initial segment of the colexicographic order. In particular, in the principal case $m=\binom{t}{r}$…

Let $F(x,y)$ be an irreducible form of degree $r\geq 3$ and having $s+1$ non-zero coefficients. Let $h\geq 1$ be an integer and consider the Thue inequality $$|F(x,y)|\leq h.$$ Following the seminal work of Thue in 1909, several papers were…

Given a subset $A \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$, let $\mu(A)$ be the maximal ratio between $\ell_4$ and $\ell_2$ norms of a function whose Fourier support is a subset of $A$. We make some simple observations about the connections between $\mu(A)$…

The classical Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant of a group $G$ denotes the smallest positive integer $\ell$ such that any sequence $S$ of length at least $\ell$ contains a zero-sum subsequence of length $\exp(G)$. In a recent paper, Caro and…

Let $e(n,s)$ denote the maximum size of a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of an $n$-element set that contains no $s$ pairwise disjoint members. In 1968, answering a question of Erd\H{o}s, Kleitman determined $e(sm-1,s)$ and $e(sm,s)$ for…

Hadwiger's conjecture in convex geometry, formulated in 1957, states that every convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be covered by $2^n$ translations of its interior. Despite significant efforts, the best known bound related to this problem…
