We show that every limit of log canonical thresholds of n-variable functions is also a log canonical threshold of an (n-1)-variable function.

We study the set of log-canonical thresholds (or critical integrability indices) of holomorphic (resp. real analytic) function germs in $\mathbb{C}^2$ (resp. $\mathbb{R}^2$). In particular, we prove that the ascending chain condition holds,…

We say that a set is a multiplicative 3-Sidon set if the equation $s_1s_2s_3=t_1t_2t_3$ does not have a solution consisting of distinct elements taken from this set. In this paper we show that the size of a multiplicative 3-Sidon subset of…

We give a new proof of logarithmic bounds for Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions, namely that if $A \subset \{1,2,\ldots,N\}$ is free of three-term progressions, then $\lvert A\rvert \leq N/(\log N)^{1-o(1)}$. Unlike previous proofs,…

We show that $k$-th iterated accumulation points of pseudo-effective thresholds of $n$-dimensional varieties are bounded by $n-k+1$.

Let X be a smooth variety and Y a closed subscheme of X. By comparing motivic integrals on X and on a log resolution of (X,Y), we prove the following formula for the log canonical threshold of (X,Y): c(X,Y)=dim X-sup_m{(dim Y_m}/(m+1)},…

We show that the minimal log discrepancy of any $\mathbb Q$-Gorenstein non-canonical threefold is $\leq\frac{12}{13}$, which is an optimal bound.

We study a pair consisting of a smooth variety over a field of positive characteristic and a multi-ideal with a real exponent. We prove the finiteness of the set of minimal log discrepancies for a fixed exponent if the dimension is less…

The log canonical thresholds of irreducible quasi-ordinary hypersurface singularities are computed, using an explicit list of pole candidates for the motivic zeta function found by the last two authors.

We show that at least 1/3 of positive real numbers are in the set of limit points of normalized prime gaps. More precisely, if $p_n$ denotes the $n$th prime and $\mathbb{L}$ is the set of limit points of the sequence $\{(p_{n+1}-p_n)/\log…

If R is a local ring of dimension n, of a smooth complex variety, and if I is a zero dimensional ideal in R, then we prove that e(I)\geq n^n/lc(I)^n. Here e(I) is the Samuel multiplicity along I, and lc(I) is the log canonical threshold of…

In this paper, we show that Shokurov's conjectures on the ACC for $a$-lc thresholds and the ACC for minimal log discrepancies are equivalent in the interval $[0,1)$. That is, the conjecture on ACC for $a$-lc thresholds holds for every…

We investigate the variation of log canonical thresholds in (graded) linear systems. For toric log Fano varieties, we give a sharp lower bound for log canonical thresholds of the anticanonical members in terms of the global minimal log…

It is demonstrated that for the isospin $I=1/2$ $\pi$N scattering amplitude, $T^{I=1/2}(s,t)$, $s={(m_N^2-m_\pi^2)^2}/{m_N^2}$ and $s=m_N^2+2m_\pi^2$ are two accumulation points of poles on the second sheet of complex $s$ plane, and are…

Let X,X_1,X_2,... be independent identically distributed random variables and let h(x,y)=h(y,x) be a measurable function of two variables. It is shown that the bounded law of the iterated logarithm, $\limsup_n (n\log\log n)^{-1}|\sum_{1<=…

It is known that a minimal teaching set of any threshold function on the twodimensional rectangular grid consists of 3 or 4 points. We derive exact formulae for the numbers of functions corresponding to these values and further refine them…

We compute the log canonical thresholds of non-negatively curved singular hermitian metrics on ample linearized line bundles on bi-equivariant group compactifications of complex reductive groups. To this end, we associate to any such metric…

Given two ideals $I$ and $J$ of the ring $\mathcal O_n$ of analytic function germs $f:(\mathbb C^n,0)\to \mathbb C$, we show a sharp lower bound for the log canonical threshold of $IJ$ in terms of the sequences of mixed {\L}ojasiewicz…

Shokurov conjectured that the set of all log canonical thresholds on varieties of bounded dimension satisfies the ascending chain condition. In this paper we prove that the conjecture holds for log canonical thresholds on smooth varieties…

The 3X+1 function T(n) is (3n+1)/2 if n is odd and n/2 if n is even. The total stopping time \sigma_\infty (n) for a positive integer n is the number of iterations of the 3x+1 function to reach 1 starting from n, and is \infty if 1 is never…
