We construct a point set in the Euclidean plane that elucidates the relationship between the fine-scale statistics of the fractional parts of $\sqrt n$ and directional statistics for a shifted lattice. We show that the randomly rotated, and…

The Lagrange theorem on continued fractions states that a number is a quadratic surd if and only if its continued fraction expansion is eventually periodic. The current paper is devoted to a multidimensional generalization of this fact. As…

Orders and fractional ideals in number fields provide interesting examples of lattices. We ask: what lattices arise from orders in number fields? We prove that all nontrivial multiplicative constraints on successive minima of orders come…

The problems of enumerating lattice walks, with an arbitrary finite set of allowed steps, both in one and two dimensions, where one must always stay in the non-negative half-line and quarter-plane respectively, are used, as case studies, to…

We begin by revisiting a paper of Erd\H{o}s and Fishburn, which posed the following question: given $k\in \mathbb{N}$, what is the maximum number of points in a plane that determine at most $k$ distinct distances, and can such optimal…

An existence result is presented for the worst-case error of lattice rules for high dimensional integration over the unit cube, in an unanchored weighted space of functions with square-integrable mixed first derivatives. Existing studies…

With the help of the recently introduced parametric geometry of numbers by W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer, we prove a strong version of a conjecture of Schmidt concerning the successive minima of a lattice.

We relate the singularities of a scheme $X$ to the asymptotics of the number of points of $X$ over finite rings. This gives a partial answer to a question of Mustata. We use this result to count representations of arithmetic lattices. More…

The Dehn function and its higher-dimensional generalizations measure the difficulty of filling a sphere in a space by a ball. In nonpositively curved spaces, one can construct fillings using geodesics, but fillings become more complicated…

We solve several open problems concerning integer points of polytopes arising in symplectic and algebraic geometry. In this direction we give the first proof of a broad case of Ewald's Conjecture (1988) concerning symmetric integral points…

Part B (of a project involving four Parts) is about "bases of lines", a concept introduced by C. Herrmann and the author in the late 80's. Bases of lines attempt to describe a given modular lattice in a geometric way akin to how projective…

We introduce and study arithmetic polygons. We show that these arithmetic polygons are connected to triples of square pyramidal numbers. For every odd $N\geq3$, we prove that there is at least one arithmetic polygon with $N$ sides. We also…

Let d be a squarefree integer. Does there exist four squares in arithmetic progression over Q(sqrt{d})? We shall give a partial answer to this question, depending on the value of d. In the affirmative case, we construct explicit arithmetic…

We asymptotically estimate the variance of the number of lattice points in a thin, randomly rotated annulus lying on the surface of the sphere. This partially resolves a conjecture of Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak. We also obtain estimates…

We solve a randomized version of the following open question: is there a strictly convex, bounded curve \gamma in the plane such that the number of rational points on \gamma, with denominator $n$, approaches infinity with $n$? Although this…

Recently three proofs of the $A_2$-conjecture were obtained. All of them are "glued" to euclidian space and a special choice of one random dyadic lattice. We build a random "dyadic" lattice in any doubling metric space which have properties…

Among the nondegenerate C^4 hypersurfaces M in R^n, we characterize the rational quadrics as the hypersurfaces that are the least well approximated by rational points. Given M other than a rational quadric, we prove a heuristically sharp…

On an $r\times (n-r)$ lattice rectangle, we first consider walks that begin at the SW corner, proceed with unit steps in either of the directions E or N, and terminate at the NE corner of the rectangle. For each integer $k$ we ask for…

Generalizations of QCD in which the number of colors N is taken to infinity are characterized by profound mathematical properties, with far-reaching implications for fundamental problems and for phenomenological issues alike. In this…

This paper is inspired by Richards' work on large gaps between sums of two squares [10]. It is shown in [10] that there exist arbitrarily large values of $\lambda$ and $\mu$, where $\mu \geq C \log \lambda$, such that intervals $[\lambda,…
