We show that extended cyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with parameters $[q+2,3,q]$, $q=2^m$, determine regular hyperovals. We also show that extended cyclic codes with parameters $[qt-q+t,3,qt-q]$, $1<t<q$, determine (cyclic) Denniston…

We study Poincar\'e problem for a linear uniformly parabolic operator $\P$ in a cylinder $Q=\Omega\times (0,T).$ The boundary operator $\B$ is defined by an oblique derivative with respect to a tangential vector field $\l$ defined on the…

We prove that solution of defocusing semilinear wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$ with pure power nonlinearity is uniformly bounded for all $\frac{3}{2}<p\leq 2$ with sufficiently smooth and localized data. The result relies on the…

Bounds for $\max\{m,\tilde{m}\}$ subject to $m,\tilde{m} \in \mathbb{Z}\cap[1,p)$, $p$ prime, $z$ indivisible by $p$, $m\tilde{m}\equiv z\bmod p$ and $m$ belonging to some fixed Beatty sequence $\{ \lfloor n\alpha+\beta \rfloor :…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$ ($N\geq1$) be a smooth bounded domain, $a\in C(\bar{\Omega})$ a sign-changing function, and $0\leq q<1$. We investigate the Robin problem \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta u=a(x)u^{q} & \mbox{in $\Omega$},\\ u\geq0…

Constant weight codes (CWCs) and constant composition codes (CCCs) are two important classes of codes that have been studied extensively in both combinatorics and coding theory for nearly sixty years. In this paper we show that for {\it…

We study the problem of maximizing R{\'e}nyi entropy of order $2$ (equivalently, minimizing the index of coincidence) over the set of joint distributions with prescribed marginals. A closed-form optimizer is known under a feasibility…

In this paper we focus on the unconstrained binary quadratic optimization model, maximize x^t Qx, x binary, and consider the problem of identifying optimal solutions that are robust with respect to perturbations in the Q matrix.. We are…

Consider the problem of nonparametric estimation of an unknown $\beta$-H\"older smooth density $p_{XY}$ at a given point, where $X$ and $Y$ are both $d$ dimensional. An infinite sequence of i.i.d.\ samples $(X_i,Y_i)$ are generated…

We show that the top Lyapunov exponent $\lambda_+(p)$ , $p = (p_1, \cdots, p_N)$ with $p_i >0$ for each $i$, associated with a random product of quasi-periodic cocycles depends real analytically on the transition probabilities $p$ whenever…

In this article our main concern is to prove the quantitative unique estimates for the $p$-Laplace equation, $1<p<\infty$, with a locally Lipschitz drift in the plane. To be more precise, let $u\in W^{1,p}_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ be a…

Liu, Pach and S\'andor recently characterized all polynomials $p(z)$ such that the equation $x+y=p(z)$ is $2$-Ramsey, that is, any $2$-coloring of $\mathbb{N}$ contains infinitely many monochromatic solutions for $x+y=p(z)$. In this paper,…

We consider the Bernoulli bond percolation process $\mathbb{P}_{p,p'}$ on the nearest-neighbor edges of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, which are open independently with probability $p<p_c$, except for those lying on the first coordinate axis, for which…

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for hypercontractivity of the minima of nonnegative, i.i.d. random variables and of both the maxima of minima and the minima of maxima for such r.v.'s. It turns out that the idea of…

We present a unified approach to improved $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$. We consider Hardy potentials that involve either the distance from a point, or the distance from the boundary, or even the intermediate case where distance is…

This paper helps explain the prevalence of soluble groups among the automorphism groups of regular maps (at least for `small' genus), by showing that every non-perfect hyperbolic ordinary triangle group $\Delta^+(p,q,r) = \langle\, x,y \ |…

In this paper we discuss the optimal regularity of the variable coefficient parabolic Signorini problem with $W^{1,1}_p$ coefficients and $L^p$ inhomogeneity, where $p>n+2$ with $n$ being the space dimension. Relying on an parabolic…

In this short expository note, we prove the following result, which is a special case of the main theorem in arXiv:2011.09451. For each $n \ge 2$ and $p, q \in [2, \infty]$, we prove upper bounds of $\ell^q(L^p)$ decoupling constants for…

In this paper we study the positive solutions to a nonlinear elliptic equation $$\Delta_pv+b|\nabla v|^q+cv^r =0$$ defined on a complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with Ricci curvature bounded from below, where $p>1$, $q,\, r, \, b$ and…

Given two polynomials $P,q$ we consider the following question: "how large can the index of the first non-zero moment $\tilde{m}_k=\int_a^b P^k q$ be, assuming the sequence is not identically zero?". The answer $K$ to this question is known…
