Further Improvements of Lower Bounds for the Least Common Multiples of Arithmetic Progressions

By: Shaofang Hong and Scott Duke Kominers
For relatively prime positive integers u_0 and r, we consider the arithmetic progression {u_k := u_0+k*r} (0 <= k <= n). Define L_n := lcm{u_0,u_1,...,u_n} and let a >= 2 be any integer. In this paper, we show that, for integers alpha,r >= a and n >=... View Details

A Linear Panel Model with Heterogeneous Coefficients and Variation in Exposure

By: Jesse M. Shapiro and Liyang Sun
Linear panel models featuring unit and time fixed effects appear in many areas of empirical economics. An active literature studies the interpretation of the ordinary least squares estimator of the model, commonly called the two-way fixed effects (TWFE) estimator, in... View Details

Prisoners, Rooms, and Lightswitches

By: Daniel M. Kane and Scott Duke Kominers
We examine a new variant of the classic prisoners and lightswitches puzzle: A warden leads his n prisoners in and out of r rooms, one at a time, in some order, with each prisoner eventually visiting every room an arbitrarily large number of times. The... View Details

Configurations of Extremal Type II Codes via Harmonic Weight Enumerators

We prove configuration results for extremal Type II codes, analogous to the configuration results of Ozeki and of the second author for extremal Type II lattices. Specifically, we show that for n ∈{8,24,32,48,56,72,96} every extremal Type II code of length n is... View Details

A New Proof of Serre's Homological Characterization of Regular Local Rings

We give a new proof of Serre’s result that a Noetherian local ring is regular if and only if it has finite global dimension. Our proof avoids the explicit construction of a Koszul complex. View Details

Ascent-Descent Young Diagrams and Pattern Avoidance in Alternating Permutations

We investigate pattern avoidance in alternating permutations and an alternating analogue of Young diagrams. In particular, using an extension of Babson and West’s notion of shape-Wilf equivalence described in our recent paper (with N. Gowravaram), we generalize results... View Details

Asymptotic Improvements of Lower Bounds for the Least Common Multiples of Arithmetic Progressions

For relatively prime positive integers and r, we consider the least common multiple L_n:=\mathop{\textrm{lcm}}(u_0,u_1,\dots, u_n) of the finite arithmetic progression \{u_k:=u_0+kr\}_{k=0}^n. We derive new lower bounds on L_n that improve upon those obtained... View Details
