Let $\mathbf{T} \equiv (T_1,\cdots,T_n)$ be a commuting $n$-tuple of operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, and let $T_i \equiv V_i P \; (1 \le i \le n)$ be its canonical joint polar decomposition (i.e.,…
We prove a result which gives sufficient conditions for a conformal annulus which is a countable union of nested conformal annuli to have bounded modulus. Our theorem also gives estimates for the modulus of such an annulus and is proved…
We prove that the consistently oriented double ray is ubiquitous if and only if it is ubiquitous restricted to the class of one-ended digraphs. Additionally, we prove the same equivalence for the disjoint union of a consistently forward and…
This article is motivated by a conjecture proposed by Sinai Robins in 2024. The conjecture asserts that two convex, centrally symmetric sets of positive measure that are not multi-tilers must coincide up to rigid motions if and only if…
The Hales-Jewett Theorem states that any $r$-colouring of $[m]^n$ contains a monochromatic combinatorial line if $n$ is large enough. Shelah's proof of the theorem implies that for $m = 3$ there always exists a monochromatic combinatorial…
A set $M$ of nonzero integers is said to split a finite abelian group $G$ if there exists a subset $S\subseteq G$ such that $M\cdot S = G\setminus\{0\}$. Such a splitting is called purely singular if every prime divisor of $|G|$ divides…
We consider polygons with the following ``pairing property'': for each edge of the polygon there is precisely one other edge parallel to it. We study the problem of when such a polygon $K$ tiles the plane multiply when translated at the…
We consider an Archimedean analogue of Tate's conjecture, and verify the conjecture in the examples of isospectral Riemann surfaces constructed by Vigneras and Sunada. We also enunciate a simple lemma in group theory which lies at the heart…
Keller's conjecture on cube tilings asserted that, in any tiling of $\mathbb{R}^d$ by unit cubes, there must exist two cubes that share a $(d-1)$-dimensional face. This is now known to be true in dimensions $d\leq 7$ and false for $d\geq…
Based on tiles and on the Coven-Meyerowitz property, we present some examples and some general constructions of spectral subsets of integers.
In the first section we review recent results on the harmonic analysis of fractals generated by iterated function systems with emphasis on spectral duality. Classical harmonic analysis is typically based on groups whereas the fractals are…
Suppose that A is a finite set of integers of diameter D. Suppose also that the set of integers B is such that A+B is a tiling of the integers, that is each integer is uniquely expressible as a+b, with a in A, b in B. It is well known that…
Let $A=U|A|$ and $B=V|B|$ be the polar decompositions of $A\in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H}_1)$ and $B\in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H}_2)$ and let $Com(A,B)$ stand for the set of operators $X\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H}_2,\mathscr{H}_1)$ such that…
We prove the following uniform version of a theorem by Lindstr\"om: Let $\mbox{$\cal F$}:=\{F_i:~ i\in I\}$ be a $k$-uniform set family of $[n]$, where $k\geq 1$. If $|\mbox{$\cal F$}|\geq n+1$, then there exist two disjoint subsets $I_1$…
The Union Closed Sets Conjecture is one of the most renowned problems in combinatorics. Its appeal lies in the simplicity of its statement contrasted with the potential complexity of its resolution. The conjecture posits that, in any union…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $A$ a subset of $G$. The spectrum of $A$ is the set of its large Fourier coefficients. Known combinatorial results on the structure of spectrum, such as Chang's theorem, become trivial in the regime…
Let $L_{a,b}$ be a line in the Euclidean plane with slope $a$ and intercept $b$. The dimension spectrum $\spec(L_{a,b})$ is the set of all effective dimensions of individual points on $L_{a,b}$. The dimension spectrum conjecture states…
Let $L$ be a slim, planar, semimodular lattice (slim means that it does not contain ${\mathsf M}_3$-sublattices). We call the interval $I = [o, i]$ of $L$ \emph{rectangular}, if there are $u_l, u_r \in [o, i] - \{o,i\}$ such that $o = u_l…
If $R$ is a rational map, the Main Result is a uniformization Theorem for the space of decompositions of the iterates of $R$. Secondly, we show that Fatou conjecture holds for decomposable rational maps.
In this paper, we give a lengthy proof of a small result! A graph is bisplit if its vertex set can be partitioned into three stable sets with two of them inducing a complete bipartite graph. We prove that these graphs satisfy the…
