Let $k \subset K$ be an extension of fields, and let $A \subset M_{n}(K)$ be a $k$-algebra. We study parameter spaces of $m$-dimensional subspaces of $K^{n}$ which are invariant under $A$. The space $\mathbb{F}_{A}(m,n)$, whose $R$-rational…

For each odd prime $p$, we conjecture the distribution of the $p$-torsion subgroup of $K_{2n}(\mathcal{O}_F)$ as $F$ ranges over real quadratic fields, or over imaginary quadratic fields. We then prove that the average size of the…

According to Suk's breakthrough result on the Erdos-Szekeres problem, any point set in general position in the plane, which has no $n$ elements that form the vertex set of a convex $n$-gon, has at most $2^{n+O\left({n^{2/3}\log n}\right)}$…

Erd\H{o}s showed that every set of $n$ positive integers contains a subset of size at least $n/(k+1)$ containing no solutions to $x_1 + \cdots + x_k = y$. We prove that the constant $1/(k+1)$ here is best possible by showing that if $(F_m)$…

Given a sequence $\mathscr{A}=\{a_0<a_1<a_2\ldots\}\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, let $r_{\mathscr{A},h}(n)$ denote the number of ways $n$ can be written as the sum of $h$ elements of $\mathscr{A}$. Fixing $h\geq 2$, we show that if $f$ is a…

The Erd\H{o}s-Rogers function $f_{s,t}$ measures how large a $K_s$-free induced subgraph there must be in a $K_t$-free graph on $n$ vertices. While good estimates for $f_{s,t}$ are known for some pairs $(s,t)$, notably when $t=s+1$, in…

Suppose that G is an abelian group, A is a finite subset of G with |A+A|< K|A| and eta in (0,1] is a parameter. Our main result is that there is a set L such that |A cap Span(L)| > K^{-O_eta(1)}|A| and |L| = O(K^eta log |A|). We include an…

A subspace arrangement in a vector space is a finite collection of vector subspaces. Similarly, a configuration of linear spaces in a projective space is a finite collection of linear subspaces. In this paper we study the degree 2 part of…

The main result of this paper is that for any $1/2 \leq s < 2 - \sqrt{2} \approx 0.5858$, there is a number $\sigma = \sigma(s) < s$ with the following property. Let $\delta > 0$ be small, assume that $A \subset [0,1]$ is a…

For an integer $n \geq 1$, the Erd\H{o}s-Rogers function $f_{s}(n)$ is the maximum integer $m$ such that every $n$-vertex $K_{s+1}$-free graph has a $K_s$-free subgraph with $m$ vertices. It is known that for all $s \geq 3$, $f_{s}(n) =…

A result of Fiz Pontiveros shows that if $A$ is a random subset of $\mathbb{Z}_N$ where each element is chosen independently with probability $N^{-1/2+o(1)}$, then with high probability every Freiman homomorphism defined on $A$ can be…

Combining Freiman's theorem with Balog-Szemeredi-Gowers theorem one can show that if an additive set has large additive energy, then a large piece of the set is contained in a generalized arithmetic progression of small rank and size. In…

Motivated by the Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa (PFR) Conjecture, we develop a theory of locality in sumsets, with applications to John-type approximation and sets with small doubling. First we show that if $A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ with $|A+A| \le…

For a permutation f of an n-dimensional vector space V over a finite field of order q we let k-affinity(f) denote the number of k-flats X of V such that f(X) is also a k-flat. By k-spectrum(n,q) we mean the set of integers k-affinity(f)…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field and L be an algebraic closure of it. Let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K), with n>2. We show that if every matrix of V has at most one eigenvalue in K, then dim V<=1+n(n-1)/2. If every matrix of V…

Let $n=4k+1$ and $k\geq 4$. We show that there exists maximal commutative subalgebras (with respect to inclusion) of dimension less that $3\cdot 2^{n-2}$.

A $(k,m)$-Furstenberg set is a subset $S \subset \mathbb{F}_q^n$ with the property that each $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ can be translated so that it intersects $S$ in at least $m$ points. Ellenberg and Erman proved that…

A subset $S$ of the Boolean hypercube $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ is a sumset if $S = \{a + b : a, b\in A\}$ for some $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$. Sumsets are central objects of study in additive combinatorics, featuring in several influential…

We determine the probability that a random k-dimensional subspace of Euclidean n-space contains a positive vector.

We prove a continuous Freiman's $3k-4$ theorem for small sumsets in $\mathbb{R}$ by using some ideas from Ruzsa's work on measure of sumsets in $\mathbb{R}$ as well as some graphic representation of density functions of sets. We thereby get…
