Consider a positive Borel measure on a locally compact group. We define a notion of uniform density for such a measure, which is based on a group invariant introduced by Leptin in 1966. We then restrict to unimodular amenable groups and to…

In this paper we present a new formulation of the Beurling-Malliavin density (Proposition 1). Then we consider the upper Polya density and show how its existence is connected with the concept of subadditivity; moreover, by means of some…

Mixture of experts (MoE) models are widely applied for conditional probability density estimation problems. We demonstrate the richness of the class of MoE models by proving denseness results in Lebesgue spaces, when inputs and outputs…

Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers. Recent work has suggested a strong link between the additive energy of $A$ (the number of solutions to $a_1 + a_2 = a_3 + a_4$ with $a_i \in A$) and the metric Poissonian property, which is a fine-scale…

We present a comprehensive report on the relationships between variations of the Menger and Rothberger selection properties with respect to $\omega$-covers and $k$-covers in the most general topological setting and address the finite…

We propose a conjecture on the density of arithmetic points in the deformation space of representations of the \'etale fundamental group in positive characteristic. This? conjecture has applications to \'etale cohomology theory, for example…

We represent the universal Menger curve as the topological realization $|\mathbb{M}|$ of the projective Fra\"iss\'e limit ${\mathbb M}$ of the class of all finite connected graphs. We show that $\mathbb{M}$ satisfies combinatorial analogues…

Developing an idea of M. Gromov, we study the intersection formula for random subsets with density. The \textit{density} of a subset $A$ in a finite set $E$ is defined by $dens A := \log_{|E|}(|A|)$. The aim of this article is to give a…

Many natural notions of additive and multiplicative largeness arise from results in Ramsey theory. In this paper, we explain the relationships between these notions for subsets of $\mathbb{N}$ and in more general ring-theoretic structures.…

We give a new criterion for a classical gas with a repulsive pair potential to exhibit uniqueness of the infinite volume Gibbs measure and analyticity of the pressure. Our improvement on the bound for analyticity is by a factor $e^2$ over…

We study the notion of Beurling-Malliavin density from the point of view of Number Theory. We prove a general relation between the Beurling-Malliavin density and the upper asymptotic density; we identify a class of sequences for which the…

In this paper we consider the existence of dense embeddings of Limit groups in locally compact groups generalizing earlier work of Breuillard, Gelander, Souto and Storm [GBSS] where surface groups were considered. Our main results are…

In a recent work, Andrews gave analytic proofs of two conjectures concerning some variations of two combinatorial identities between partitions of a positive integer into odd parts and partitions into distinct parts discovered by Beck.…

We give an elementary proof of a version of the implicit function theorem over Henselian valued fields $K$. It yields a density property for such fields (introduced in a joint paper with J. Koll{\'a}r), which is indispensable for ensuring…

We deal with finitely additive measures defined on all subsets of natural numbers which extend the asymptotic density (density measures). We consider a class of density measures which are constructed from free ultrafilters on natural…

We prove an extension of the well-known combinatorial-topological lemma of E. Sperner to the case of infinite-dimensional cubes. It is obtained as a corollary to an infinitary extension of the Lebesgue Covering Dimension Theorem.

We introduce the notion of the "covering type" of a space, which is more subtle that the notion of Lusternik Schnirelman category. It measures the complexity of a space which arises from coverings by contractible subspaces whose non-empty…

Menger conjectured that subsets of $\mathbb R$ with the Menger property must be $\sigma$-compact. While this is false when there is no restriction on the subsets of $\mathbb R$, for projective subsets it is known to follow from the Axiom of…

We establish that for q>=1, the class of convex combinations of q translates of a smooth probability density has local doubling dimension proportional to q. The key difficulty in the proof is to control the local geometric structure of…

Motivated by problems in high-dimensional statistics such as mixture modeling for classification and clustering, we consider the behavior of radial densities as the dimension increases. We establish a form of concentration of measure, and…
