We consider asymptotically flat Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature that are conformal to $\R^{n}\setminus \Omega, n\ge 3$, and so that their boundary is a minimal hypersurface. (Here, $\Omega\subset \R^{n}$ is open…
We obtain upper bounds, independent of the ambient dimension, for the number of realizable zero-nonzero patterns and (over ordered fields) sign conditions of a finite family of polynomials $\mathcal P$ restricted to an algebraic subset $V$…
The Minimum Weight Steiner Tree (MST) is an important combinatorial optimization problem over networks that has applications in a wide range of fields. Here we discuss a general technique to translate the imposed global connectivity…
Given a rooted point set $P$, the rooted $y-$Monotone Minimum Spanning Tree (rooted $y-$MMST) of $P$ is the spanning geometric graph of $P$ in which all the vertices are connected to the root by some $y-$monotone path and the sum of the…
We obtain new lower and upper bounds for the maximum multiplicity of some weighted and, respectively, non-weighted common geometric graphs drawn on n points in the plane in general position (with no three points collinear): perfect…
We show that any space with a positive upper curvature bound has in a small neighborhood of any point a closely related metric with a negative upper curvature bound.
For semiclassical problems we establish upper bounds on the number of resonances in boxes of size $h$ along the real axis, in terms of the dimension of the set of trapped trajectories. The proof uses second microlocalization.
We study a decision tree model in which one is allowed to query subsets of variables. This model is a generalization of the standard decision tree model. For example, the $\lor-$decision (or $T_1$-decision) model has two queries, one is a…
Kayal, Saha and Tavenas [Theory of Computing, 2018] showed that for all large enough integers $n$ and $d$ such that $d\geq \omega(\log{n})$, any syntactic depth four circuit of bounded individual degree $\delta = o(d)$ that computes the…
We conjecture a general upper bound on the strength of gravity relative to gauge forces in quantum gravity. This implies, in particular, that in a four-dimensional theory with gravity and a U(1) gauge field with gauge coupling g, there is a…
We show that given a domain $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ with uniformly non-flat Ahlfors $s$-regular boundary and $s\geq d$, the dimension of its harmonic measure is strictly less than $s$.
Assign i.i.d. standard exponential edge weights to the edges of the complete graph K_n, and let M_n be the resulting minimum spanning tree. We show that M_n converges in the local weak sense (also called Aldous-Steele or Benjamini-Schramm…
We present improved learning-augmented algorithms for finding an approximate minimum spanning tree (MST) for points in an arbitrary metric space. Our work follows a recent framework called metric forest completion (MFC), where the learned…
The dimension is a key measure of complexity of partially ordered sets. Small dimension allows succinct encoding. Indeed if $P$ has dimension $d$, then to know whether $x \leq y$ in $P$ it is enough to check whether $x\leq y$ in each of the…
A range of experimental results point to the existence of a massive neutrino. The recent high precision measurements of the cosmic microwave background and the large scale surveys of galaxies can be used to place an upper bound on this…
We extend the work of Hellerman (arxiv:0902.2790) to derive an upper bound on the conformal dimension $\Delta_2$ of the next-to-lowest nontrival primary operator in unitary two-dimensional conformal field theories without chiral primary…
We review results on the scaling of the optimal path length in random networks with weighted links or nodes. In strong disorder we find that the length of the optimal path increases dramatically compared to the known small world result for…
The bidimensionality of a set of vertices $X$ in a graph $G$ is the maximum $k$ for which $G$ contains as a $X$-rooted minor the $(k \times k)$-grid. This notion allows for the following version of the Graph Minors Structure Theorem (GMST)…
A tree with $n$ vertices has at most $95^{n/13}$ minimal dominating sets. The growth constant $\lambda = \sqrt[13]{95} \approx 1.4194908$ is best possible. It is obtained in a semi-automatic way as a kind of "dominant eigenvalue" of a…
We show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ and $\Delta\in\mathbb{N}$, there exists $\alpha>0$ such that for sufficiently large $n$, every $n$-vertex graph $G$ satisfying that $\delta(G)\geq\varepsilon n$ and $e(X, Y)>0$ for every pair of disjoint…
