The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the strong approximation of the $p$-fold integrated empirical process, $p$ being a fixed positive integer. More precisely, we obtain the exact rate of the approximations by a sequence of…

For the mixed CM point (a,b,c) = (1/6, 1/3, 1), define A_n^{mix} := 108^n [z^n] _2F_1(1/6, 1/3; 1; z)^3. For every split prime p >= 7, p == 1 mod 3, and every m >= 1, we prove unconditionally A_{mp}^{mix} == A_m^{mix} mod p^4. The exponent…

The rank aggregation problem has received significant recent attention within the computer science community. Its applications today range far beyond the original aim of building metasearch engines to problems in machine learning,…

We use techniques from algebraic and extremal combinatorics to derive upper bounds on the number of independent sets in several (hyper)graphs arising from finite geometry. In this way, we obtain asymptotically sharp upper bounds for partial…

We investigate, using the weighted linear sieve, the distribution of almost-primes among the residue classes (mod p) that generate the multiplicative group of reduced residue classes. We are concerned with finding an upper bound for the…

We prove essentially sharp bounds for the $L^p$ restriction of weighted Gauss sums to monomial curves. Getting the $L^2$ upper bound combines the $TT^*$ method for matrices with the first and second derivative test for exponential sums. The…

Let $p\geq3$ be a large prime and let $n(p)\geq2$ denotes the least quadratic nonresidue modulo $p$. This note sharpens the standard upper bound of the least quadratic nonresidue from the unconditional upper bound $n(p)\ll…

Consider the level sets of the Markoff equation $$\mathrm{M}_k: x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - xyz - 2 = k.$$ The phenomenon of strong approximation, as named by Bourgain, Gamburd, and Sarnak, predicts that every solution of $\mathrm{M}_k$ over…

Graphs of solutions to the minimal surface equation over simply connected domains with boundary values 0 can have at most exponential growth.

We establish the first polynomial upper bound for the mixing time of random edge flips on rooted quadrangulations: we show that the spectral gap of the edge flip Markov chain on quadrangulations with $n$ faces admits, up to constants, an…

We provide a doubly exponential upper bound in $p$ on the size of forbidden pivot-minors for symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices over a fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}$ of linear rank-width at most $p$. As a corollary, we obtain a doubly…

This is an expository survey on recent sum-product results in finite fields. We present a number of sum-product or "expander" results that say that if $|A| > p^{2/3}$ then some set determined by sums and product of elements of $A$ is nearly…

Michel proved that for a one-parameter family of elliptic curves over Q(T) with non-constant j(T) that the second moment of the number of solutions modulo p is p^2 + O(p^{3/2}). We show this bound is sharp by studying y^2 = x^3 + Tx^2 + 1.…

We study the upgrading version of the maximal covering location problem with edge length modifications on networks. This problem aims at locating p facilities on the vertices (of the network) so as to maximise coverage, considering that the…

Using some resolution of singularities and oscillatory integral methods in conjunction with appropriate damping and interpolation techniques, L^p boundedness theorems for p > 2 are obtained for maximal operators over a wide range of…

We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…

We consider non-convex stochastic optimization using first-order algorithms for which the gradient estimates may have heavy tails. We show that a combination of gradient clipping, momentum, and normalized gradient descent yields convergence…

In this paper, we study the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$-improving bounds, i.e., $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)\rightarrow L^q(\mathbb{R}^2)$ estimates, of the maximal function $M_{\gamma}$ along a plane curve $(t,\gamma(t))$, where…

The paper focuses on the behaviour of unimodular Fourier multipliers with exponential growth in the context of weighted $L^p$-spaces. Our main result shows that much of the general theory of multipliers is approachable through the theory of…

We study the $L^p$ mapping properties of the strong spherical maximal function, which is a multiparameter generalisation of Stein's spherical maximal function. We show that this operator is bounded on $L^p$ for $p > 2$ in all dimensions $n…
