We study a pinned variant of Bourgain's theorem, concerning the occurrence of affine copies of $k$-point patterns in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Focusing on the case $k=2$, which corresponds to pinned distances, we show that the classical conclusion…

We prove an extension of Bourgain's theorem on pinned distances in measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ of positive upper density, namely Theorem $1^\prime$ in [Bourgain, 1986], to pinned non-degenerate $k$-dimensional simplices in…

We present a sharp extension of a result of Bourgain on finding configurations of $k+1$ points in general position in measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ of positive upper density whenever $d\geq k+1$ to all proper $k$-degenerate distance…

The recent breakthrough of Guth, Iosevich, Ou, and Wang (2019) on the Falconer distance problem states that for a compact set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^2$, if the Hausdorff dimension of $A$ is greater than $\frac{5}{4}$, then the distance set…

We study the problem of how well a tree metric is able to preserve the sum of pairwise distances of an arbitrary metric. This problem is closely related to low-stretch metric embeddings and is interesting by its own flavor from the line of…

Furstenberg, Katznelson and Weiss proved in the early 1980s that every measurable subset of the plane with positive density at infinity has the property that all sufficiently large real numbers are realised as the Euclidean distance between…

It is well-known that the height profile of a critical conditioned Galton-Watson tree with finite offspring variance converges, after a suitable normalization, to the local time of a standard Brownian excursion. In this work, we study the…

We prove an analogue for homogeneous trees and certain affine buildings of a result of Bourgain on pinned distances in sets of positive density in Euclidean spaces. Furthermore, we construct an example of a non-homogeneous tree with…

We show that if a closed discrete subset $A \subseteq \mathbf{R}^d$ is denser than a certain critical threshold, then $A$ is a Fourier uniqueness set, while if $A$ is sparser, then uniqueness fails and one can prescribe arbitrary values for…

Bennett, Iosevich and Taylor proved that compact subsets of ${\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, of Hausdorff dimensions greater than $\frac{d+1}{2}$ contain chains of arbitrary length with gaps in a non-trivial interval. In this paper we generalize…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be an arbitrary finite field, and $\mathcal{E}$ be a set of points in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. Let $\Delta(\mathcal{E})$ be the set of distances determined by pairs of points in $\mathcal{E}$. By using the Kloosterman sums,…

In this paper we investigate the Erd\"os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We prove a good upper bound for spherical means that have been…

According to a classical result of Szemer\'{e}di, every dense subset of $1,2,...,N$ contains an arbitrary long arithmetic progression, if $N$ is large enough. Its analogue in higher dimensions due to F\"urstenberg and Katznelson says that…

For a set of distances D={d_1,...,d_k} a set A is called D-avoiding if no pair of points of A is at distance d_i for some i. We show that the density of A is exponentially small in k provided the ratios d_1/d_2, d_2/d_3, ..., d_{k-1}/d_k…

In this article we investigate the Uniform Spanning Forest ($\mathsf{USF}$) in the nearest-neighbour integer lattice $\mathbf{Z}^{d+1} = \mathbf{Z}\times \mathbf{Z}^d$ with an assignment of conductances that makes the underlying (Network)…

We show that any compact, connected set $K$ in the plane can be approximated by the critical points of a polynomial with two critical values. Equivalently, $K$ can be approximated in the Hausdorff metric by a true tree in the sense of…

We consider fixed-point equations for probability measures charging measured compact metric spaces that naturally yield continuum random trees. On the one hand, we study the existence/uniqueness of the fixed-points and the convergence of…

A 1965 problem due to Danzer asks whether there exists a set in Euclidean space with finite density intersecting any convex body of volume one. A recent approach to this problem is concerned with the construction of dense forests and is…

The distances between flats of a Poisson $k$-flat process in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space with $k<d/2$ are discussed. Continuing an approach originally due to Rolf Schneider, the number of pairs of flats having distance less than a…

In a recent paper, Aldous, Blanc and Curien asked which distributions can be expressed as the distance between two independent random variables on some separable measured metric space. We show that every nonnegative discrete distribution…
