This paper considers a variation of the full-information secretary problem where the random variables to be observed are independent but not necessary identically distributed. The main result is a sharp lower bound for the optimal win…

We prove a sharp spectral generalization of the Cheeger--Gromoll splitting theorem. We show that if a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n\geq 2$ has at least two ends and \[ \lambda_1(-\gamma\Delta+\mathrm{Ric})\geq…

Let $0 < \beta \leq \alpha < 1$ and $\kappa > 0$. I prove that there exists $\eta > 0$ such that the following holds for every pair of Borel sets $A,B \subset \mathbb{R}$ with $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} A = \alpha$ and $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} B =…

We develop a theory of \emph{sharp measure zero} sets that parallels Borel's \emph{strong measure zero}, and prove a theorem analogous to Galvin-Myscielski-Solovay Theorem, namely that a set of reals has sharp measure zero if and only if it…

Let an algebraic polynomial $P_n(\zeta)$ of degree $n$ be such that $|P_n(\zeta)|\le 1$ for $\zeta\in E\subset\mathbb{T}$ and $|E|\ge 2\pi -s$. We prove the sharp Remez inequality $$ \sup_{\zeta\in\mathbb{T}}|P_n(\zeta)|\le…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…

We prove that every smooth complete intersection X defined by s hypersurfaces of degree d_1, ... , d_s in a projective space of dimension d_1 + ... + d_s is birationally superrigid if 5s +1 is at most 2(d_1 + ... + d_s + 1)/sqrt{d_1...d_s}.…

We consider a spectral stability estimate by Burenkov and Lamberti concerning the variation of the eigenvalues of second order uniformly elliptic operators on variable open sets in the N-dimensional euclidean space, and we prove that it is…

It is shown that every simple polygon in general position with $n$ walls can be illuminated from a single point light source $s$ after at most $\lfloor (n-2)/4\rfloor$ diffuse reflections, and this bound is the best possible. A point $s$…

We study the singularities of the isospectral Hilbert scheme $B^n$ of $n$ points over a smooth algebraic surface and we prove that they are canonical if $n \leq 5$, log-canonical if $n \leq 7$ and not log-canonical if $n \geq 9$. We…

We study the extent to which divisors of a typical integer $n$ are concentrated. In particular, defining the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley $\Delta$-function by $\Delta(n) := \max_t \# \{d | n, \log d \in [t,t+1]\}$, we show that $\Delta(n) \geq (\log…

We study the ubiquitous super-resolution problem, in which one aims at localizing positive point sources in an image, blurred by the point spread function of the imaging device. To recover the point sources, we propose to solve a convex…

Black holes hold a tremendous discovery potential. In this paper the extent to which the Event Horizon Telescope and its next generation upgrade can resolve their structure is quantified. Black holes are characterized by a perfectly…

Given a metrizable space $X$, let $AM(X)$ be the space of continuous bounded admissible metrics on $X$, which is endowed with the sup-metric. In this paper, we shall investigate the Borel complexity and the complete metrizability of $AM(X)$…

We prove that the range of exponents in Mockenhaupt's restriction theorem for Salem sets, with the endpoint estimate due to Bak and Seeger, is optimal.

In this paper we show the stability of the ball as maximizer of the Riesz potential among sets of given volume. The stability is proved with sharp exponent $1/2$, and is valid for any dimension $N\geq 2$ and any power $1<\alpha<N$.

We study the Hardy inequality when the singularity is placed on the boundary of a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that satisfies both an interior and exterior ball condition at the singularity. We obtain the sharp Hardy constant $n^2/4$ in…

We provide two new bounds on the number of visible points on exponential curves modulo a prime for all choices of primes. We also provide one new bound on the number of visible points on exponential curves modulo a prime for almost all…

It is shown that $N$ points on a real algebraic curve of degree $n$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ always determine $\gtrsim_{n,d}N^{1+\frac{1}{4}}$ distinct distances, unless the curve is a straight line or the closed geodesic of a flat torus. In the…

Denoting by $\mathcal{E}\subseteq \R^2$ the set of the pairs $(\lambda_1(\Omega),\lambda_2(\Omega))$ for all the open sets $\Omega\subseteq\R^N$ with unit measure, and by $\Theta\subseteq\R^N$ the union of two disjoint balls of half…
