Quaternions and spherical trigonometry

Timothy Trudgian, Andrew Yang and I have just uploaded to the arXiv the paper “New exponent pairs, zero density estimates, and zero additive energy estimates: a systematic approach“. This paper launches a project envisioned in this previous blog post, in which the (widely dispersed) literature on various exponents in classical analytic number...

I’ve just uploaded to the arXiv the paper “On the distribution of eigenvalues of GUE and its minors at fixed index“. This is a somewhat technical paper establishing some estimates regarding one of the most well-studied random matrix models, the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE), that were not previously in the literature, but which will be […]

Renaissance Philanthropy and XTX Markets have announced the launch of the AI for Math Fund, a new grant program supporting projects that apply AI and machine learning to mathematics, with a focus on automated theorem proving, with an initial $9.2 million in funding. The project funding categories, and examples of projects in such categories, are:...

Vjeko Kovac and I have just uploaded to the arXiv our paper “On several irrationality problems for Ahmes series“. This paper resolves (or at least makes partial progress on) some open questions of Erdős and others on the irrationality of Ahmes series, which are infinite series of the form for some increasing sequence of natural […]

Kaisa Matomäki, Maksym Radziwill, Fernando Xuancheng Shao, Joni Teräväinen, and myself have (finally) uploaded to the arXiv our paper “Higher uniformity of arithmetic functions in short intervals II. Almost all intervals“. This is a sequel to our previous paper from 2022. In that paper, discorrelation estimates such as were established, where is...
