An important problem in analytic and geometric combinatorics is estimating the number of lattice points in a compact convex set in a Euclidean space. Such estimates have numerous applications throughout mathematics. In this note, we exhibit…
A formula for the radii and positions of four circles in the plane for an arbitrary linearly independent circle configuration is found. Among special cases is the recent extended Descartes Theorem on the Descartes configuration and an…
We consider the number of visible lattice points under the assumption of the Extended Lindel\"{o}f Hypothesis. We get a relation between visible lattice points and the Extended Lindel\"{o}f Hypothesis. And we also get a relation between…
We present a short elementary proof of the following Twelve Points Theorem: Let M be a convex polygon with vertices at the lattice points, containing a single lattice point in its interior. Denote by m (resp. m*) the number of lattice…
We prove a fairly general inequality that estimates the number of lattice points in a ball of positive radius in general position in a Euclidean space. The bound is uniform over lattices induced by a matrix having a bounded operator norm.
We state the formula for the critical number of vertices of a convex lattice polygon that guarantees that the polygon contains at least one point of a given sublattice and give a partial proof of the formula. We show that the proof can be…
We give mean square bounds for the remainder in the lattice point counting problem, counting the number of lattice points in a large ball in $\mathbb{R}^d$, when averaged over families of shears of the lattice.
In the late 90's, Tom Wolff introduced the circle tangency counting problem in his expository article on the Kakeya conjecture. For collections of well-spaced circles, we break the $N^{3/2}$-barrier, proving that a set of $N$ well-spaced…
The main point of this paper is to present a class of equations over integers that one can check if they have a solution by checking a set of inequalities. The prototype of such equations is the equations appearing in the well-known…
We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…
We count the number of lattice paths lying under a cyclically shifting piecewise linear boundary of varying slope. Our main result extends well known enumerative formulae concerning lattice paths, and its derivation involves a classical…
In this paper we consider the problem of packing a fixed number of identical circles inside the unit circle container, where the packing is complicated by the presence of fixed size circular prohibited areas. Here the objective is to…
Problems in additive number theory related to sum and difference sets, more general binary linear forms, and representation functions of additive bases for the integers and nonnegative integers.
Steinhaus proved that given a~positive integer $n$, one may find a circle surrounding exactly $n$ points of the integer lattice. This statement has been recently extended to Hilbert spaces by Zwole\'{n}ski, who replaced the integer lattice…
This is a survey of some problems in geometric group theory which I find interesting. The problems are from different areas of group theory. Each section is devoted to problems in one area. It contains an introduction where I give some…
The problem of percolation along sites of square lattice is studied. The number of contours being external boundaries for finite clusters has been estimated using geometric considerations. This estimation makes it possible to determine more…
The Gauss circle problem asks for an approximation to the number of lattice points of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ contained in $B_r$, the disk of radius $r$ centered at the origin. Upper, lower, and average bounds have been established for this…
The rigorous construction of quantum Yang-Mills theories, especially in dimension four, is one of the central open problems of mathematical physics. Construction of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories is the first step towards this goal. This…
We study the spatial distribution of point sets on the sphere obtained from the representation of a large integer as a sum of three integer squares. We examine several statistics of these point sets, such as the electrostatic potential,…
We prove a sharp bound for the remainder term of the number of lattice points inside a ball, when averaging over a compact set of (not necessarily unimodular) lattices, in dimensions two and three. We also prove that such a bound cannot…
