A well-known discovery of Feige's is the following: Let $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ be nonnegative independent random variables, with $\mathbb{E}[X_i] \leq 1 \;\forall i$, and let $X = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i$. Then for any $n$, \[\Pr[X < \mathbb{E}[X] +…

Let $0<\alpha<d$ and $1\leq p<d/\alpha$. We present a proof that for all $f\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ both the centered and the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood fractional maximal operator $\mathcal M_\alpha f$ are weakly differentiable and $…

We prove that SVP$_p$ is NP-hard to approximate within a factor of $2^{\log^{1 - \varepsilon} n}$, for all constants $\varepsilon > 0$ and $p > 2$, under standard deterministic Karp reductions. This result is also the first proof that…

Consider $\operatorname{Sym}(n)$, endowed with the normalized Hamming metric $d_n$. A finitely-generated group $\Gamma$ is \emph{P-stable} if every almost homomorphism $\rho_{n_k}\colon \Gamma\rightarrow\operatorname{Sym}(n_k)$ (i.e., for…

We study p-adic counterparts of stable distributions, that is limit distributions for sequences of normalized sums of independent identically distributed p-adic-valued random variables. In contrast to the classical case, non-degenerate…

We provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a positive solution to $-\Delta u+V(|x|) u=u^p$ in $B_1$, when p is large enough. Here $B_1$ is the unit ball of $R^n$, n greater or equal to 2, and we deal both with Neumann and…

We consider the problem of detecting a deformation from a symmetric Gaussian random $p$-tensor $(p\geq 3)$ with a rank-one spike sampled from the Rademacher prior. Recently in Lesieur et al. (2017), it was proved that there exists a…

We consider a 2 d.o.f. Hamiltonian system with one degree of freedom corresponding to fast motion and the other corresponding to slow motion. The ratio of the time derivatives of slow and fast variables is of order $0<\eps \ll 1$. At frozen…

Given a constant $\alpha>0$, an $n$-vertex graph is called an $\alpha$-expander if every set $X$ of at most $n/2$ vertices in $G$ has an external neighborhood of size at least $\alpha|X|$. Addressing a question posed by Friedman and…

We investigate a system of Brownian particles weakly bound by attractive parity-symmetric potentials that grow at large distances as $V(x) \sim |x|^\alpha$, with $0 < \alpha < 1$. The probability density function $P(x,t)$ at long times…

Let $X(t,\omega),$ $t \in \textit{R}$ be a symmetric stable process with index $\alpha \in (1,2]$ and $a_n$ be the Fourier-Jacobi coefficients of $f \in L^p,$ where $p \geq \alpha.$ For $\gamma, \delta> 0,$ $t \in [-1,1],$ define…

In this paper we characterize the compact operators on $A^p_\alpha(\mathbb{B}_n)$ when $1<p<\infty$ and $\alpha>-1$. The main result shows that an operator on $A^p_\alpha(\mathbb{B}_n)$ is compact if and only if it belongs to the Toeplitz…

For a random walk on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}$ that is attracted to a strictly stable process with index $\alpha\in (1, 2)$ we obtain the asymptotic form of the transition probability for the walk killed when it hits a finite set.…

We deal with the distribution of the fractional parts of $p^{\lambda}$, $p$ running over the prime numbers and $\lambda$ being a fixed real number lying in the interval $(0,1)$. Roughly speaking, we study the following question: Given a…

In a recent paper, the last three authors showed that a game-theoretic $p$-harmonic function $v$ is characterized by an asymptotic mean value property with respect to a kind of mean value $\nu_p^r[v](x)$ defined variationally on balls…

Let $Z$ be an $n$-dimensional Gaussian vector and let $f: \mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$ be a convex function. We show that: $$\mathbb P \left( f(Z) \leq \mathbb E f(Z) -t\sqrt{ {\rm Var} f(Z)} \right) \leq \exp(-ct^2),$$ for all $t>1$, where…

We study the constant $\mathscr{C}_p$ defined as the smallest constant $C$ such that $|f(0)|^p \leq C\|f\|_p^p$ holds for every function $f$ in the Paley-Wiener space $PW^p$. Brevig, Chirre, Ortega-Cerd\`a, and Seip have recently shown that…

We study the stability of a vector field associated to a nearly-integrable Hamiltonian dynamical system to which a dissipation is added. Such a system is governed by two parameters, named the perturbing and dissipative parameters, and it…
