We prove an explicit asymptotic formula for the logarithm of the minimal ranks of $n$-universal lattices over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We also show that, for any constant $C > 0$ and $n \geq 3$, there are only…

We establish a lower bound for the complexity of multiplying two skew polynomials. The lower bound coincides with the upper bound conjectured by Caruso and Borgne in 2017, up to a log factor. We present algorithms for three special cases,…

Among the currently known constructions of absolutely normal numbers, the one given by Mordechay Levin in 1979 achieves the lowest discrepancy bound. In this work we analyze this construction in terms of computability and computational…

Let b $\ge$ 2 be an integer and let s b (n) denote the sum of the digits of the representation of an integer n in base b. For sufficiently large N , one has Card{n $\le$ N : |s 3 (n) -- s 2 (n)| $\le$ 0.1457205 log n} \textgreater{} N…

The binary value function, or BinVal, has appeared in several studies in theory of evolutionary computation as one of the extreme examples of linear pseudo-Boolean functions. Its unbiased black-box complexity was previously shown to be at…

We show that every complete $n$-vertex simple topological graph contains a topological subgraph on at least $(\log n)^{1/4 - o(1)}$ vertices that is weakly isomorphic to the complete convex geometric graph or the complete twisted graph.…

It is well-known that the lower bound of iteration complexity for solving nonconvex unconstrained optimization problems is $\Omega(1/\epsilon^2)$, which can be achieved by standard gradient descent algorithm when the objective function is…

The use of realistic input models has gained popularity in the theory community. Assuming a realistic input model often precludes complicated hypothetical inputs, and the analysis yields bounds that better reflect the behaviour of…

In the study of extensions of polytopes of combinatorial optimization problems, a notorious open question is that for the size of the smallest extended formulation of the Minimum Spanning Tree problem on a complete graph with $n$ nodes. The…

Let $\varepsilon >0$. Let $f$ be a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function. We prove that we have almost surely, as $x \to +\infty$, $$ \sum_{n \leqslant x} f(n) \ll \sqrt{x} (\log_2 x)^{\frac{3}{4}+ \varepsilon}. $$

Let $G(n)=\sigma (n)/(n \log \log n )$. Robin made hypothesis that $G(n)<e^\gamma$ for all integer $n>5040$. If Robin hypothesis fails, there will be a least counterexample. This article collects the requirements the least counterexample…

Fix $k$ a positive integer, and let $\ell$ be coprime to $k$. Let $p(k,\ell)$ denote the smallest prime equivalent to $\ell \pmod{k}$, and set $P(k)$ to be the maximum of all the $p(k,\ell)$. We seek lower bounds for $P(k)$. In particular,…

We prove that for every $\epsilon > 0$ there exists a $\delta > 0$ so that every group of order $n \geq 3$ has at least $\delta \log_{2} n/{(\log_{2} \log_{2} n)}^{3+\epsilon}$ conjugacy classes. This sharpens earlier results of Pyber and…

This paper is devoted to establish nontrivial effective lower bounds for the least common multiple of consecutive terms of a sequence ${(u_n)}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ whose general term has the form $u_n = r {[n]}_q + u_0$, where $q , r$ are…

We investigate the complexity of algorithms counting ones in different sets of operations. With addition and logical operations (but no shift) $O(\log^2(n))$ steps suffice to count ones. Parity can be computed with complexity $O(\log(n))$,…

We establish a sharp lower-bound for the number of conjugacy classes $k(A_n)$ in the alternating group $A_n$, for $n \geq 3$. Namely, we show that $k\left(A_n\right) \geq \frac{k\left(A_7\right)}{\log_2\left|A_7\right|} \cdot…

In this paper, we contribute to the study of topological partition relations for pairs of countable ordinals and prove that, for all integers $n \geq 3$, \begin{align*} R^{cl}(\omega+n,3) &\geq \omega^2 \cdot n + \omega \cdot (R(n,3)-n)+n\\…

Let $f(N)$ denote the least integer $k$ such that, if $G$ is an abelian group of order $N$ and $A \subseteq G$ is a uniformly random $k$-element subset, then with probability at least $\tfrac12$ the subset-sum set $\{ \sum_{x \in S} x : S…

We consider the problem of sorting elements on a series of stacks, introduced by Tarjan and Knuth. We improve the asymptotic lower bound for the number of stacks necessary to sort $n$ elements to $0.561 \log_2 n + O(1)$. This is the first…
