Uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for Whittaker's confluent hypergeometric functions $M_{\kappa,\mu}(z)$ and $W_{\kappa,\mu}(z)$, as well as the numerically satisfactory companion function $W_{-\kappa,\mu}(ze^{-\pi i})$. The…

We prove for any mu = mu^{< mu}< theta < lambda, lambda large enough (just strongly inaccessible Mahlo) the consistency of 2^mu = lambda-> [theta]^2_3 and even 2^mu = lambda-> [theta]^2_{sigma,2} for sigma < mu . The new point is that…

We prove continuity and Harnack's inequality for bounded solutions to the equation $$ {\rm div}\big(|\nabla u|^{p(x)-2}\,\nabla u \big)=0, \quad p(x)= p + L\frac{\log\log\frac{1}{|x-x_{0}|}}{\log\frac{1}{|x-x_{0}|}},\quad L > 0, $$ under…

In this work, we investigate the positivity of the real part of the log-derivative of the Riemann $\xi$-function in the region $1/2+1/\sqrt{\log t}<\sigma<1$, where $t$ is sufficiently large. We provide an explicit lower bound for…

In this paper we deal with the following fractional Kirchhoff equation \begin{equation*} \left(p+q(1-s) \iint_{\mathbb{R}^{2N}} \frac{|u(x)- u(y)|^{2}}{|x-y|^{N+2s}} \, dx\,dy \right)(-\Delta)^{s}u = g(u) \mbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^{N},…

Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. A well known conjecture of Chowla asserts that for any distinct natural numbers $h_1,\dots,h_k$, one has $\sum_{1 \leq n \leq X} \lambda(n+h_1) \dotsm \lambda(n+h_k) = o(X)$ as $X \to \infty$.…

The following MW--problem was posed independently by Janusz Matkowski and Jacek Weso{\l}owski in different forms in 1985 and 2009, respectively: Are there increasing and continuous functions $\varphi\colon [0,1]\to [0,1]$, distinct from the…

In this paper, we first establish the uniqueness and non-degeneracy of positive solutions to the fractional Kirchhoff problem \begin{equation*}…

We obtain sharp bounds for the modulus of continuity of the uncentered maximal function in terms of the modulus of continuity of the given function, via integral formulas. Some of the results deduced from these formulas are the following:…

In this short note we prove the logarithmic Sobolev inequality with derivatives of fractional order on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with an explicit expression for the constant. Namely, we show that for all $0<s<\frac{n}{2}$ and $a>0$ we have the…

We study the non-existence, existence and multiplicity of positive solutions to the following nonlinear Kirchhoff equation:% \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -M\left( \int_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}\left\vert \nabla u\right\vert…

Let kappa a regular uncountable cardinal and lambda a cardinal >kappa, and suppose lambda^{<kappa} is less than the covering number for category cov(M_{kappa,kappa}). Then (a) I_{kappa,lambda}^+ -->^kappa (I_{kappa, lambda}^+,omega +1)^2,…

It is well known that if $0.a_1a_2a_3\dots$ is the base-$b$ expansion of a number normal to base-$b$, then the numbers $0.a_ka_{m+k}a_{2m+k}\dots$ for $m\ge 2$, $k\ge 1$ are all normal to base-$b$ as well. In contrast, given a continued…

As a well-known enumerative problem, the number of solutions of the equation $m=m_1+...+m_k$ with $m_1\leqslant...\leqslant m_k$ in positive integers is $\Pi(m,k)=\sum_{i=0}^k\Pi(m-k,i)$ and $\Pi$ is called the additive partition function.…

We show a necessary and sufficient condition for any ordinal number to be a Polish space. We also prove that for each countable Polish space, there exists a countable ordinal number that is an upper bound for the first component of the…

Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that $$\int_X^{2X}\Big|\sum_{x\leq n \leq x+h}\lambda(n) \Big|^2 dx \ll Xh(\log X)^6,$$ as $X\rightarrow \infty$, provided $h=h(X)\leq…

Signed Minkowski decomposition is an expression of a polytope as a Minkowski sum and difference of smaller polytopes. Signed Minkowski decompositions of a polytope can be interpreted as factorizations of a max-plus (tropical) function. We…

Let $A$ be a selfadjoint operator in a separable Hilbert space, $K$ a selfadjoint Hilbert-Schmidt operator, and $f\in C^n(\mathbb{R})$. We establish that $\varphi(t)=f(A+tK)-f(A)$ is $n$-times continuously differentiable on $\mathbb{R}$ in…
