Given $n$ positive integers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_n$, and a positive integer right hand side $\beta$, we consider the feasibility version of the subset sum problem which is the problem of determining whether a subset of $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_n$ adds…
Let $G$ be a connected graph, and let $\lambda_1$ and $\rho$ denote the spectral radius of $G$ and the universal cover of $G$, respectively. In \cite{Fri03}, Friedman has shown that almost every $n$-lift of $G$ has all of its new…
A pair of probability distributions over $\{0,1\}^n$ is said to be $(k,\delta)$-wise indistinguishable if all of the size $k$ marginals are within statistical distance at most $\delta$. Previous works introduced this concept and study when…
We study the size blow-up that is necessary to convert an algebraic circuit of product-depth $\Delta+1$ to one of product-depth $\Delta$ in the multilinear setting. We show that for every positive $\Delta = \Delta(n) = o(\log n/\log \log…
We show that there exist absolute constants $\Delta > \delta > 0$ such that, for all $n \geqslant 2$, there exists a polynomial $P$ of degree $n$, with $\pm 1$ coefficients, such that $$\delta\sqrt{n} \leqslant |P(z)| \leqslant…
We consider finite $\beta$-ensembles $\mathcal X_{n,\beta}^{\mathbb F}$ with $n$ points on $\mathbb F$, where $\mathbb F$ denotes either the real line or the complex plane. Let $U$ be a bounded subset of $ \mathbb F$ such that $\partial U$…
Orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle are completely determined by their reflection coefficients through the Szeg\H{o} recurrences. We assume that the reflection coefficients converge to some complex number a with 0 < |a| < 1. The…
For any real number $\beta>1$. The $n$th cylinder of $\beta$ in the parameter space $\{\beta\in \mathbb{R}: \beta>1\}$ is a set of real numbers in $(1,\infty)$ having the same first $n$ digits in their $\beta$-expansion of $1$, denote by…
It is known that for a uniform morphic sequence $\boldsymbol u = \langle u_n\rangle_{n=0}^\infty$ and an algebraic number $\beta$ such that $|\beta|>1$, the number $[\![\boldsymbol{u} ]\!]_\beta:=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{u_n}{\beta^n}$…
Nonlinear approximation from regular piecewise polynomials (splines) of degree $<k$ supported on rings in $\R^2$ is studied. By definition a ring is a set in $\R^2$ obtained by subtracting a compact convex set with polygonal boundary from…
We study Pisot numbers $\beta \in (1, 2)$ which are univoque, i.e., such that there exists only one representation of 1 as $1 = \sum_{n \geq 1} s_n\beta^{-n}$, with $s_n \in \{0, 1\}$. We prove in particular that there exists a smallest…
We study best approximation to a given function, in the least square sense on a subset of the unit circle, by polynomials of given degree which are pointwise bounded on the complementary subset. We show that the solution to this problem, as…
AGT conjecture reveals a connection between 4D $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theory and 2D conformal field theory. Though some special instances have been proven, others remain elusive and the attempts on its full proof never stop. When the…
We consider the well-known method of least squares on an equidistant grid with $N+1$ nodes on the interval $[-1,1]$ with the goal to approximate a function $f\in\mathcal{C}\left[-1,1\right]$ by a polynomial of degree $n$. We investigate the…
In this paper, we present new explicit simultaneous rational approximations converging sub-exponentially to the values of Bell polynomials at the points of the form $(\gamma, 1! (2a+1)\zeta(2), 2!\zeta(3),..., (m-1)!(a+1+(-1)^ma)\zeta(m)),$…
Three polynomials are defined for given sets $S$ of $n$ points in general position in the plane: The Voronoi polynomial with coefficients the numbers of vertices of the order-$k$ Voronoi diagrams of $S$, the circle polynomial with…
Let $\Gamma_n$, $n \geq 2$, denote the symmetrized polydisc in $\mathbb{C}^n$, and $\Gamma_1$ be the closed unit disc in $\mathbb{C}$. We provide some characterizations of elements in $\Gamma_n$. In particular, an element $(s_1, \ldots,…
For a finite set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, let $\Delta(A)$ denote the spread of $A$, which is the ratio of the maximum pairwise distance to the minimum pairwise distance. For a positive integer $n$, let $\gamma_d(n)$ denote the largest…
A Bernstein type inequality is obtained for the Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{\alpha,\beta}(x)$, which is uniform for all degrees $n\ge0$, all real $\alpha,\beta\ge0$, and all values $x\in [-1,1]$. It provides uniform bounds on a complete set of…
This article describes a sequence of rational functions which converges locally uniformly to the zeta function. The numerators (and denominators) of these rational functions can be expressed as characteristic polynomials of matrices that…
