An improved point‐line incidence bound over arbitrary fields

S Stevens, F De Zeeuw - Bulletin of the London Mathematical …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
We prove a new upper bound for the number of incidences between points and lines in a
plane over an arbitrary field F, a problem first considered by Bourgain, Katz and Tao …

Expanding polynomials over finite fields of large characteristic, and a regularity lemma for definable sets

T Tao - arXiv preprint arXiv:1211.2894, 2012 - arxiv.org
Let $ P:\F\times\F\to\F $ be a polynomial of bounded degree over a finite field $\F $ of large
characteristic. In this paper we establish the following dichotomy: either $ P $ is a moderate …

Extractors and secret sharing against bounded collusion protocols

E Chattopadhyay, J Goodman, V Goyal… - 2020 IEEE 61st …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In a recent work, Kumar, Meka, and Sahai (FOCS 2019) introduced the notion of bounded
collusion protocols (BCPs). BCPs are multiparty communication protocols in which N parties …

Three-variable expanding polynomials and higher-dimensional distinct distances

T Pham, LA Vinh, F De Zeeuw - Combinatorica, 2019 - Springer
We determine which quadratic polynomials in three variables are expanders over an
arbitrary field F F. More precisely, we prove that for a quadratic polynomial f∈ FF x, y, z …

Sum–product estimates for rational functions

B Bukh, J Tsimerman - Proceedings of the London …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
We establish several sum–product estimates over finite fields that involve polynomials and
rational functions. First,| f (A)+ f (A)+| AA| is substantially larger than| A| for an arbitrary …

AN EXPLICIT TWO‐SOURCE EXTRACTOR WITH MIN‐ENTROPY RATE NEAR

M Lewko - Mathematika, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
In 2005 Bourgain gave the first explicit construction of a two‐source extractor family with min‐
entropy rate less than 1/2. His approach combined Fourier analysis with innovative but …

[HTML][HTML] Conditional expanding bounds for two-variable functions over prime fields

N Hegyvári, F Hennecart - European Journal of Combinatorics, 2013 - Elsevier
In this paper we provide in F p expanding lower bounds for two variables functions f (x, y) in
connection with the product set or the sumset. The sum–product problem has been …

On monochromatic solutions of some nonlinear equations in ℤ/p

ID Shkredov - Mathematical Notes, 2010 - Springer
Let the set of positive integers be colored in an arbitrary way in finitely many colors (a “finite
coloring”). Is it true that, in this case, there are x, y∈ ℤ such that x+ y, xy, and x have the …

Incidences between planes over finite fields

N Phuong, T Pham, L Vinh - Proceedings of the American Mathematical …, 2019 - ams.org
In this note, we use methods from spectral graph theory to obtain bounds on the number of
incidences between $ k $-planes and $ h $-planes in $\mathbb {F} _q^ d $, which …
