The uniform Littlewood conjecture (ULC), introduced by Bandi, Fregoli and Kleinbock, asserts in the two-number case that $$ \lim_{Q\to\infty} Q\min_{1\le n\le Q}\|n\xi\|\,\|n\zeta\|=0 $$ for all real $\xi,\zeta$. It is proven to hold for almost every pair $(\xi,\zeta)$. Schleischitz, however, has recently disproved the full statement and showed that the set of counterexamples contains a dense $G_\delta$ set. We prove that a set of counterexample pairs with the first coordinate being a badly approximable number has Hausdorff dimension at least $3/2$. We further show that the set of badly approximable numbers $\xi$ for which there exists $\zeta$ such that $(\xi,\zeta)$ is a counterexample to ULC has full Hausdorff dimension. This contrasts with the classical Littlewood conjecture, for which the set of possible counterexamples is known to have Hausdorff dimension $0$.
We show that for every fixed $\varepsilon>0$, there exist arbitrarily large families of point-line pairs $(x_1,\ell_1),\ldots,(x_n,\ell_n)$ in $[0,1]^2$, with $x_i \in \ell_i$ for all $i$, and such that $\operatorname{dist}(x_i,\ell_j)\ge n^{-2/3-\varepsilon}$ for all $i \neq j$. Combined with a previous result of Cohe...
For $m\geq 2$, let $c_p(m)$ be the all-dimensional best constant in $$ \left\|\sum_{k=1}^m A_k\right\|_p \leq c_p(m)\left\|\sum_{k=1}^m |A_k|\right\|_p. $$ Tang and Zhang conjectured an explicit formula for every finite $p>1$. We disprove the conjecture with two explicit real $2\times 2$ rank-one matrices at $p=3/2$. T...
The set of $\tau$-approximable numbers, $\mathcal W(\tau)$, has genuinely fractional Hausdorff dimension, whereas the set of inhomogeneously badly approximable numbers, $\Bad^\gamma$, has full Hausdorff dimension. We determine the Hausdorff dimension of their intersection by introducing the $\Psi$-rapid game, a scale-s...
Let $E\subset \mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set generated by a homogeneous iterated function system $\Phi$ with contraction ratio $\rho\in (0,1)$. Assume that $\Phi$ satisfies the open set condition and $\dim_{\rm H}E<1$. Let $f$ be a $C^1$-diffeomorphism on $\mathbb{R}$. We prove that if $\log|f'(x)|/\log\rho\not\in\m...
We prove, for all fixed $0<\delta<1$, and all sufficiently large $n$, that there exists $S \subset [n]$ with $|S| \ge \delta n$ such that $A + B \not \subset S$ for all ${A, B \subset \mathbb{N}}$ satisfying $$\min\big\{|A|, |B|\big\} \ge \big(3 + o(1)\big) \frac{\log n }{ \log (1 / \delta)}.$$ A very recent result of...

Let $C_n$ be the optimal constant with the following property. For every even, continuous, strictly positive density $f$ on $R^n$ and all origin-symmetric convex bodies $K,L\subset R^n$, the inequalities $$ \int_{K\cap\xi^\perp}f \leq \int_{L\cap\xi^\perp}f \qquad\text{for all }\xi\in S^{n-1} $$ imply $\int_Kf\leq C_n\...
