For $S \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ a Boolean function $f \colon S \to \{-1,1\}$ is a polynomial threshold function (PTF) of degree $d$ and weight $W$ if there is a polynomial $p$ with integer coefficients of degree $d$ and with sum of absolute…
Let $X_1,\dots,X_n$ be independent nonnegative random variables (r.v.'s), with $S_n:=X_1+\dots+X_n$ and finite values of $s_i:=E X_i^2$ and $m_i:=E X_i>0$. Exact upper bounds on $E f(S_n)$ for all functions $f$ in a certain class…
We prove that for every $\varepsilon>0$ and a nonnegative integer $\omega$ there exist primes $p_1,p_2,\ldots,p_\omega$ such that for $n=p_1p_2\ldots p_\omega$ the height of the cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n$ is at least…
We give a lower bound for the size of a subset of $\mathbb F_q^n$ containing a rich k-plane in every direction, a k-plane Furstenberg set. The chief novelty of our method is that we use arguments on non-reduced subschemes and flat families…
We find arbitrarily large configurations of irreducible polynomials over finite fields that are separated by low degree polynomials. Our proof adapts an argument of Pintz from the integers, in which he combines the methods of…
A key tool in recent advances in understanding arithmetic progressions and other patterns in subsets of the integers is certain norms or seminorms. One example is the norms on $\Z/N\Z$ introduced by Gowers in his proof of Szemer\'edi's…
Using recent developments on the theory of locally decodable codes, we prove that the critical size for Szemer\'edi's theorem with random differences is bounded from above by $N^{1-\frac{2}{k} + o(1)}$ for length-$k$ progressions. This…
Bernstein polynomials provide a constructive proof for the Weierstrass approximation theorem, which states that every continuous function on a closed bounded interval can be uniformly approximated by polynomials with arbitrary accuracy.…
A precise tie between a univariate spline's knots and its zeros abundance and dissemination is formulated. As an application, a conjecture formulated by De Concini and Procesi is shown to be true in the special univariate, unimodular case.…
Fix an odd prime $p$. If $r$ is a positive integer and $f$ a polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$, let $P_{p,r}(f)$ be the proportion of $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_{p^r})$ that is periodic with respect to $f$. We show that as…
We present bounds for the sparseness and for the degrees of the polynomials in the Nullstellensatz. Our bounds depend mainly on the unmixed volume of the input polynomial system. The degree bounds can substantially improve the known ones…
In the paper we give an upper bound for the Waldschmidt constants of the wide class of ideals. This generalizes the result obtained by Dumnicki, Harbourne, Szemberg and Tutaj-Gasinska, Adv. Math. 2014. Our bound is given by a root of a…
Let $F_p$ be the field of a prime order $p.$ For a subset $A\subset F_p$ we consider the product set $A(A+1).$ This set is an image of $A\times A$ under the polynomial mapping $f(x,y)=xy+x:F_p\times F_p\to F_p.$ In the present paper we show…
The recent work of \cite{CRT,DonohoPol} rigorously proved (in a large dimensional and statistical context) that if the number of equations (measurements in the compressed sensing terminology) in the system is proportional to the length of…
We obtain upper bounds for the multiplicity of an isolated solution of a system of equations $f_1=...= f_M =0$ in $M$ variables, where the set of polynomials $(f_1,..., f_M)$ is a tuple of general position in a subvariety of a given…
Let $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \ldots, f_R)$ be a system of polynomials with integer coefficients in which the degrees need not all be the same. We provide sufficient conditions for which the system of equations $f_j (x_1, \ldots, x_n) = 0 \ (1…
Let $\mathbb{P}= \{P_1, \cdots, P_{k}\in \mathbb{R}[y]\}$ be a collection of polynomials with distinct degrees and zero constant terms. We proved that there exists $\epsilon=\epsilon(\mathbb{P})>0$ such that, for any compact set $E \subset…
Let $f$ be a polynomial with coefficients in the ring $O_S$ of $S$-integers of a number field $K$, $b$ a non-zero $S$-integer, and $m$ an integer $\ge 2$. We consider the equation $( \star )$: $f(x) = b y^m$ in $x,y \in O_S$. Under the…
Let $\{p_j(n)\}_{j=1}^{\omega(n)}$ denote the increasing sequence of distinct prime factors of an integer $n$. We provide details for the proof of a statement of Erd\H{o}s implying that, for any function $\xi(n)$ tending to infinity with…
Let S be an abelian semigroup, and A a finite subset of S. The sumset hA consists of all sums of h elements of A, with repetitions allowed. Let |hA| denote the cardinality of hA. Elementary lattice point arguments are used to prove that an…
