Let $Q(X)$ be any integral primitive positive definite quadratic form with discriminant $D$ and in $k$ variables where $k\geq4$. We give an upper bound on the number of integral solutions of $Q(X)=n$ for any integer $n$ in terms of $n$, $k$…
A matrix $A \in \mathbb{C}^{q \times N}$ satisfies the restricted isometry property of order $k$ with constant $\varepsilon$ if it preserves the $\ell_2$ norm of all $k$-sparse vectors up to a factor of $1\pm \varepsilon$. We prove that a…
More than twenty-five years ago, Manickam, Miklos, and Singhi conjectured that for positive integers $n,k$ with $n \geq 4k$, every set of $n$ real numbers with nonnegative sum has at least $\binom{n-1}{k-1}$ $k$-element subsets whose sum is…
Let $X$ be a matrix with entries in a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field $K$. We prove that, if the entries of $X$ outside some $(t \times t)$-submatrix are algebraically dependent over $K$, the arithmetical rank of the…
Let $A=(a_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. entries such that $\mathbb{E} a_{11} = 0$ and $\mathbb{E} {a_{11}}^2 = 1$. We prove that for any $\delta>0$ there is $L>0$ depending only on $\delta$, and a subset $\mathcal{N}$…
For a positive integer $N$, we define the N-rank of a non singular integer $d\times d$ matrix $A$ to be the maximum integer $r$ such that there exists a minor of order $r$ whose determinant is not divisible by $N$. Given a positive integer…
Let $x$ and $y$ be positive $n$-vectors. We show that there exists a $2n\times 2n$ positive definite real matrix whose symplectic spectrum is $y,$ and the symplectic spectrum of whose diagonal is $x$ if and only if $x$ is weakly…
In the general submatrix detection problem, the task is to detect the presence of a small $k \times k$ submatrix with entries sampled from a distribution $\mathcal{P}$ in an $n \times n$ matrix of samples from $\mathcal{Q}$. This…
Let $V$ be a vector space of rectangular $n\times k$ matrices annihilating the Cullis' determinant. We show that $\dim(V) \le (n-1)k$, extending Dieudonn{\'{e}}'s result on the dimension of vector spaces of square matrices annihilating the…
A matroid is uniform if and only if it has no minor isomorphic to $U_{1,1}\oplus U_{0,1}$ and is paving if and only if it has no minor isomorphic to $U_{2,2}\oplus U_{0,1}$. This paper considers, more generally, when a matroid $M$ has no…
In this paper, we prove that an $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with independent centered subgaussian entries satisfies \[ s_{n+1-l}(A) \le C_1t \frac{l}{\sqrt{n}} \] with probability at least $1-\exp(-C_2tl)$. This yields $s_{n-l}(A) \sim…
Fix n>2. Let s be a principally embedded sl(2)-subalgebra in sl(n). A special case of results of the second author and Gregg Zuckerman implies that there exists a positive integer b(n) such that for any finite dimensional…
In this paper we study the number of $k$-neighborly reorientations of an oriented matroid, leading to study $k$-Roudneff's conjecture, the case $k=1$ being the original statement conjectured in 1991. We first prove the conjecture for the…
Aougab and Gaster [Math. Proc. Cambridge Philos. Soc. 174 (2023), 569-584] proved that any set of simple closed curves on the torus, where any two are non-homotopic and intersect at most k times, has a maximum size of $k+O(\sqrt{k}\log k)$.…
Let K be a (commutative) field with characteristic not 2, and V be a linear subspace of n by n matrices that have at most two eigenvalues in K (respectively, at most one non-zero eigenvalue in K). We prove that the dimension of V is less…
Let $\mathbf X$ be a random matrix whose pairs of entries $X_{jk}$ and $X_{kj}$ are correlated and vectors $ (X_{jk},X_{kj})$, for $1\le j<k\le n$, are mutually independent. Assume that the diagonal entries are independent from off-diagonal…
We show that for each positive integer $k$ there is a $k\times k$ matrix $B$ with $\pm 1$ entries such that putting $E$ to be the span of the rows of the $k\times 2k$ matrix $[\sqrt{k}I_k,B]$, then $E,E^{\bot}$ is a Kashin splitting: The…

We prove an estimate on the smallest singular value of a multiplicatively and additively deformed random rectangular matrix. Suppose $n\le N \le M \le \Lambda N$ for some constant $\Lambda \ge 1$. Let $X$ be an $M\times n$ random matrix…
