Let G be a drawing of a graph with n vertices and e > 4n edges, in which no two adjacent edges cross and any pair of independent edges cross at most once. According to the celebrated Crossing Lemma of Ajtai, Chvatal, Newborn, Szemeredi and Leighton, the nu ...
In the Convex Body Chasing problem, we are given an initial point v0. Rd and an online sequence of n convex bodies F1,..., Fn. When we receive Ft, we are required to move inside Ft. Our goal is to minimize the total distance traveled. This fundamental onli ...
In this paper we show that every set A ⊂ ℕ with positive density contains B + C for some pair B, C of infinite subsets of ℕ , settling a conjecture of Erdős. The proof features two different decompositions of an arbitrary bounded sequence into a structured ...
Coordinate descent with random coordinate selection is the current state of the art for many large scale optimization problems. However, greedy selection of the steepest coordinate on smooth problems can yield convergence rates independent of the dimension ...
We present asymptotically sharp inequalities for the eigenvalues mu(k) of the Laplacian on a domain with Neumann boundary conditions, using the averaged variational principle introduced in [14]. For the Riesz mean R-1(z) of the eigenvalues we improve the k ...
Let P be a partially ordered set. If the Boolean lattice (2[n],⊂) can be partitioned into copies of P for some positive integer n, then P must satisfy the following two trivial conditions: (1) the size of P is a power of 2, (2) P has a unique maximal and m ...
A subfamily {F-1, F-2, ..., F-vertical bar P vertical bar} subset of F is a copy of the poset P if there exists a bijection i : P -> {F-1, F-2, ..., F-vertical bar P vertical bar}, such that p
We answer several questions posed by Beck, Cox, Delgado, Gubeladze, Haase, Hibi, Higashitani, and Maclagan in [Cox et al. 14, Question 3.5 (1),(2), Question 3.6], [Beck et al. 15, Conjecture 3.5(a),(b)], and [Hasse et al. 07, Open question 3 (a),(b) p. 231 ...

We prove the Topological Mirror Symmetry Conjecture by Hausel-Thaddeus for smooth moduli spaces of Higgs bundles of type SLn and PGLn. More precisely, we establish an equality of stringy Hodge numbers for certain pairs of algebraic orbifolds generica ...
