Recall that a binary linear code of length $n$ is a linear subspace $\mathcal{C} = \{x\in\mathbb{F}_2^n\mid Ax=0\}$. Here the parity check matrix $A$ is a binary $m\times n$ matrix of rank $m$. We say that $\mathcal{C}$ has rate $R=1-\frac…

The vector balancing constant $\mathrm{vb}(K,Q)$ of two symmetric convex bodies $K,Q$ is the minimum $r \geq 0$ so that any number of vectors from $K$ can be balanced into an $r$-scaling of $Q$. A question raised by Schechtman is whether…

Given a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, we define \begin{align*} \mathrm{conv}_k(A) := \left\{ \lambda_1 s_1 + \cdots + \lambda_k s_k : \lambda_i \in [0,1], \sum_{i=1}^k \lambda_i = 1 , s_i \in A \right\} \end{align*} to be the set of vectors…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set of vectors of $\mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ of them include an orthogonal pair. We prove that for every prime…

The aim of this paper is to establish weighted Hardy type inequality in a broad family of means. In other words, for a fixed vector of weights $(\lambda_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ and a weighted mean $\mathscr{M}$, we search for the smallest number…

An important result in discrepancy due to Banaszczyk states that for any set of $n$ vectors in $\mathbb{R}^m$ of $\ell_2$ norm at most $1$ and any convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^m$ of Gaussian measure at least half, there exists a $\pm 1$…

We show that for almost any vector $v$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that the dimension of the set of vectors $w$ satisfying $\liminf_{k\to\infty} k^{1/n}<kv-w> \ge \epsilon$ (where $<\cdot>$ denotes…

Given $0 < s < 1$, I prove that there exists a constant $\epsilon = \epsilon(s) > 0$ such that the following holds. Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a Borel set with $\mathcal{H}^{1}(K) > 0$, and let $E_{s}(K) \subset S^{1}$ be the…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set ${\cal A} \subseteq \mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ vectors of ${\cal A}$ include an orthogonal pair. We prove…

Let $g(k)$ be the maximum size of a planar set that determines at most $k$ distances. We prove $$\frac{\pi}{3\,C(\Lambda_{hex})}\ k\sqrt{\log k} (1+o(1)) \le g(k) \le C k\log k,$$ so $g(k) \asymp k\sqrt{\log k}$ with an explicit constant…

Suppose that $[n]=\left\{0,1,2,...,n\right\}$ is a set of non-negative integers and $h,k \in [n]$. The $L(h,k)$-labeling of graph $G$ is the function $l:V(G)\rightarrow[n]$ such that $\left|l(u)-l(v)\right|\geq h$ if the distance $d(u,v)$…

Suppose that $K \subseteq \RR^d$ is a 0-symmetric convex body which defines the usual norm $$ \Norm{x}_K = \sup\Set{t\ge 0: x \notin tK} $$ on $\RR^d$. Let also $A\subseteq\RR^d$ be a measurable set of positive upper density $\rho$. We show…

The Hamming oracle returns the Hamming distance between an unknown binary $n$-vector $x$ and a binary query $n$-vector y. The objective is to determine $x$ uniquely using a sequence of $m$ queries. What are the minimum number of queries…

The Johnson-Lindenstrauss Lemma is a classic result which implies that any set of n real vectors can be compressed to O(log n) dimensions while only distorting pairwise Euclidean distances by a constant factor. Here we consider potential…

We show that for any sufficiently large integer $Q$ and a real $0\leq\lambda\leq\frac34$ there exists a value $c(n,f,J)>0$ such that all strips $L(Q,\lambda)=\{(x,y):|y-f(x)|<Q^{-\lambda}, x\in J=[a,b]\}$ contain at least $c(n, f,…

This paper considers an extremal version of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem. For a point set $P \subset \mathbb R^d$, let $\Delta(P)$ denote the set of all Euclidean distances determined by $P$. Our main result is the following: if…

Let $m\in\mathbb N_{\ge 2}$, and let $\mathcal K=\{K_\lambda: \lambda\in(0, 1/m]\}$ be a class of Cantor sets, where $K_{\lambda}=\{\sum_{i=1}^\infty d_i\lambda^i: d_i\in\{0,1,\ldots, m-1\}, i\ge 1\}$. We investigate in this paper the…

We investigate the dynamics of homogeneous gravitational collapse of a massless vector field in the presence of a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$. The corresponding density function $\rho (a)$ obtained for the massless vector field…

Graham and Winkler derived a formula for the determinant of the distance matrix of a full-dimensional set of $n + 1$ points $\{ x_{0}, x_{1}, \ldots , x_{n} \}$ in the Hamming cube $H_{n} = ( \{ 0,1 \}^{n}, \ell_{1} )$. In this article we…

Let $\overrightarrow{v}\in\mathbb{R}^2\setminus\mathbb{Q}^2$, let $\lVert\cdot\lVert$ be an arbitrary norm on $\mathbb{R}^2$, and let $(q_n,\overrightarrow{p_n})_{n=0}^{\infty} \subset\mathbb{N}\times\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ be the best…
