Stability under scaling in the local phases of multiplicative functions

Miguel N. Walsh

We introduce a strategy to tackle some known obstructions of current approaches to the Fourier uniformity conjecture. Assuming GRH, we then show the conjecture holds for intervals…

Phase relations and pyramids

Miguel N. Walsh

We develop tools to study the averaged Fourier uniformity conjecture and extend its known range of validity to intervals of length at least $\exp(C (\log X)^{1/2} (\log \log X)^{1/…

Local uniformity through larger scales

Miguel N. Walsh

By associating frequencies to larger scales, we provide a simpler way to derive local uniformity of multiplicative functions on average from the results of Matomäki-Radziwill.

Concentration estimates for algebraic intersections

Miguel N. Walsh

We present an approach over arbitrary fields to bound the degree of intersection of families of varieties in terms of how these concentrate on algebraic sets of smaller codimension…

The polynomial method over varieties

Miguel N. Walsh

We establish sharp estimates that adapt the polynomial method to arbitrary varieties. These include a partitioning theorem, estimates on polynomials vanishing on fixed sets and bou…

Bounded rational points on curves

Miguel N. Walsh

We establish the sharp estimate <<_d N^{2/d} for the number of rational points of height at most N on an irreducible projective curve of degree d. We deduce this from a result for…

The algebraicity of ill-distributed sets

Miguel N. Walsh

We show that every set S in [N]^d occupying less than p^t residue classes for some real number t < d and every prime p, must essentially lie in the solution set of a polynomial equ…

Norm convergence of nilpotent ergodic averages

Miguel N. Walsh

We show that multiple polynomial ergodic averages arising from nilpotent groups of measure preserving transformations of a probability space always converge in the L^2 norm.

The inverse sieve problem in high dimensions

Miguel N. Walsh

We show that if a big set of integer points in [0,N]^d, d>1, occupies few residue classes mod p for many primes p, then it must essentially lie in the solution set of some polynomi…
