We prove two results on Fractal Uncertainty Principle (FUP) for discrete Cantor sets with large alphabets. First, we give an example of an alphabet with dimension $\delta \in (\frac12,1)$ where the FUP exponent is exponentially small as the…
Dirichlet's uniform approximation theorem is a fundamental result in Diophantine approximation that gives an optimal rate of approximation with a given bound. We study uniform Diophantine approximation properties on the Hecke group $\mathbf…
We study a version of the fractal uncertainty principle in the joint time-frequency representation. Namely, we consider Daubechies' localization operator projecting onto spherically symmetric $n$-iterate Cantor sets with an arbitrary base…
In 2004, J.C. Tong found bounds for the approximation quality of a regular continued fraction convergent of a rational number, expressed in bounds for both the previous and next approximation. We sharpen his results with a geometric method…
The anti-maximum principle for the homogeneous Dirichlet problem to $-\Delta_p u = \lambda |u|^{p-2}u + f(x)$ with positive $f \in L^\infty(\Omega)$ states the existence of a critical value $\lambda_f > \lambda_1$ such that any solution of…
Let $\mu_{q, b}$ be the Cantor measure associated with the iterated function system $f_i(x)=x/b+i/q, 0\le i\le q-1$, where $2\le q, b/q\in \Z$. In this paper, we consider spectra and maximal orthogonal sets of the Cantor measure $\mu_{q,…
The approximation constant $\lambda_{k}(\zeta)$ is defined as the supremum of real $\eta$ such that $\Vert \zeta^{j}x\Vert\leq x^{-\eta}$ for $1\leq j\leq k$ has infinitely many integer solutions $x$. Here $\Vert.\Vert$ denotes the distance…
We exploit dynamical properties of diagonal actions to derive results in Diophantine approximations. In particular, we prove that the continued fraction expansion of almost any point on the middle third Cantor set (with respect to the…
Singular vectors are those for which the quality of rational approximations provided by Dirichlet's Theorem can be improved by arbitrarily small multiplicative constants. We provide an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of singular…
We derive a lower bound to the spectral threshold of the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubular neighbourhoods of constant radius about complete surfaces. This lower bound is given by the lowest eigenvalue of a one-dimensional operator depending on…
A lower bound estimate \lambda_2 - \lambda_1 \ge c \lambda_1^{-d / \alpha} (\diam D)^{-d - \alpha} for the spectral gap of the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian on arbitrary bounded domain D is proved. This follows from a variational formula…
The model problem of a plane angle for a second-order elliptic system subject to Dirichlet, mixed, and Neumann boundary conditions is analyzed. For each boundary condition, the existence of solutions of the form $r^\lambda v$ is reduced to…
We establish a new upper bound for the number of rationals up to a given height in a missing-digit set, making progress towards a conjecture of Broderick, Fishman, and Reich. This enables us to make novel progress towards another conjecture…
We study the divergence form second-order elliptic equations with mixed Dirichlet-conormal boundary conditions. The unique $W^{1,p}$ solvability is obtained with $p$ being in the optimal range $(4/3,4)$. The leading coefficients are assumed…
In this paper, we prove the upper and lower bounds for normal derivatives of spectral clusters $u=\chi_{\lambda}^s f$ of Dirichlet Laplacian $\Delta_M$, $$c_s \lambda\|u\|_{L^2(M)} \leq \| \partial_{\nu}u \|_{L^2(\partial M)} \leq C_s…
We estimate the error term in the asymptotic formula of the Sidon constant for (ordinary) Dirichlet polynomials by providing explicit lower and upper bounds. The lower bound is already implicitly known, but we supply the necessary…
We provide a lower bound for the ratio between the ordinary and uniform exponent of both simultaneous Diophantine approximation and Diophantine approximation by linear forms in any dimension. This lower bound was conjectured by Schmidt and…
In 1995, D. Jerison and C. Kenig in \cite{JK-1995} considered the the inhomogeneous Dirichlet problem $\Delta u= f$ on $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$ in Lipschitz domains. One of their main results shows that the $W^{1,p}$ estimate…
Fix an irrational number $\theta$. For a real number $\tau >0$, consider the numbers $y$ satisfying that for all large number $Q$, there exists an integer $1\leq n\leq Q$, such that $\|n\theta-y\|<Q^{-\tau}$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is the…
Fix $d\in\mathbb N$, and let $S\subseteq\mathbb R^d$ be either a real-analytic manifold or the limit set of an iterated function system (for example, $S$ could be the Cantor set or the von Koch snowflake). An $extrinsic$ Diophantine…
