We show that a finite set of integers $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}$ with $|A+A| \le K |A|$ contains a large piece $X \subseteq A$ with Fre\u{i}man dimension $O(\log K)$, where large means $|A|/|X| \ll \exp(O(\log^2 K))$. This can be thought of…
We study the isoperimetric problem on $\mathbb{R}^1$ with a prescribed density function $f$ that affects how area and perimeter are measured. We examine density functions that are symmetric, radially increasing, and satisfy two additional…
We are concerned with the long time behaviour of solutions to the fractional porous medium equation with a variable spatial density. We prove that if the density decays slowly at infinity, then the solution approaches the Barenblatt-type…
Let $A$ be a sufficiently dense subset of a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ or a finite, cyclic ring $\mathbb Z/ N\mathbb Z$. Assuming that $q$ and $N$ have no small prime divisors, we show that generalised Fermat equations have the expected…
The homomorphism problem for relational structures is an abstract way of formulating constraint satisfaction problems (CSP) and various problems in database theory. The decision version of the homomorphism problem received a lot of…
We consider the Diophantine equation $$ a!b! = c! $$ due to Erd\H{o}s, where we assume $a \leq b$. It is widely believed that there are only finitely many nontrivial solutions, and considerable work has been dedicated to showing this. In…
For a large number of random constraint satisfaction problems, such as random k-SAT and random graph and hypergraph coloring, there are very good estimates of the largest constraint density for which solutions exist. Yet, all known…
When there are no constraints upon the solutions of the equation $\mathbf{A}\mathbf{\xi}= \mathbf{y},$ where $\mathbf{A}$ is a $K\times N-$matrix, $\mathbf{\xi}\in\mathbb{R}^N$ and $\mathbf{y}\in\mathbb{R}^K$ a given vector, the description…
Suppose $F:=(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$ is a system of random $n$-variate polynomials with $f_i$ having degree $\leq\!d_i$ and the coefficient of $x^{a_1}_1\cdots x^{a_n}_n$ in $f_i$ being an independent complex Gaussian of mean $0$ and variance…
We revisit the classical problem of diffusion of a scalar (or heat) released in a two-dimensional medium with an embedded periodic array of impermeable obstacles such as perforations. Homogenisation theory provides a coarse-grained…
For random systems of $K$ polynomials in $N + 1$ real variables which include the models of Kostlan (1987) and Shub and Smale (1993), we prove that the number of zeros on the unit sphere for $K = N$ or the Hausdorff measure of the zero set…
We study the computational complexity of decomposing finite discrete dynamical systems (FDDSs) in terms of the semiring operations of alternative and synchronous execution, which is useful for the analysis of discrete phenomena in science…
We provide bounds on the compression size of the solutions to 22 problems in computer science. For each problem, we show that solutions exist with high probability, for some simple probability measure. Once this is proven, derandomization…
In contrast to finite arithmetic configurations, relatively little is known about which infinite patterns can be found in every set of natural numbers with positive density. Building on recent advances showing infinite sumsets can be found,…
In the monotone integer dualization problem, we are given two sets of vectors in an integer box such that no vector in the first set is dominated by a vector in the second. The question is to check if the two sets of vectors cover the…
We consider the problem of computing homogeneous coordinates of points in a zero-dimensional subscheme of a compact, complex toric variety $X$. Our starting point is a homogeneous ideal $I$ in the Cox ring of $X$, which in practice might…
We revisit the problem of condensation for independent, identically distributed random variables with a power-law tail, conditioned by the value of their sum. For large values of the sum, and for a large number of summands, a condensation…
We prove several results of the following type: given finite dimensional normed space V possessing certain geometric property there exists another space X having the same property and such that (1) log (dim X) = O(log (dim V)) and (2) every…
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…
Hard spheres are an important benchmark of our understanding of natural and synthetic systems. In this work, colloidal experiments and Monte Carlo simulations examine the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium assembly of hard spheres of…
