We consider weak solutions to a class of Dirichlet boundary value problems invloving the $p$-Laplace operator, and prove that the second weak derivatives are in $L^{q}$ with $q$ as large as it is desirable, provided $p$ is sufficiently…
In this paper, we simplify and improve the constant, $c$, that appears in effective irrationality measures, $|(a/b)^{m/n}-p/q|>c|q|^{-(\kappa+1)}$, obtained from the hypergeometric method for $a/b$ near $1$. The dependence of $c$ on $|a|$…
Let $C=\inf (k/n)\sum_{i=1}^n x_i(x_{i+1}+\dots+x_{i+k})^{-1}$, where the infimum is taken over all pairs of integers $n\geq k\geq 1$ and all positive $x_1,\dots,x_{n+k}$ subject to cyclicity assumption $x_{n+i}=x_i$, $i=1,\dots,k$. We…
Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),\cdots,a_n(x),\cdots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of $x\in[0,1)$. In this paper, we study the increasing rate of the weighted product $a^{t_0}_n(x)a^{t_1}_{n+1}(x)\cdots a^{t_m}_{n+m}(x)$ ,where $t_i\in…
In this paper we study a Landis-type conjecture for fractional Schr\"odinger equations of fractional power $s\in(0,1)$ with potentials. We discuss both the cases of differentiable and non-differentiable potentials. On the one hand, it turns…
Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…
Many attempts to introduce fundamental nonlocality into quantum (or classical) field theory are based on the assumption that exponentials of the d'Alembertian are positive-definite, so that these operators can be employed without…
The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(a)$ appear as the coefficients in the regular part of the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$ about $s=1$. We present the evaluation of $\gamma_1(a)$ and $\gamma_2(a)$ at rational…
Let A,B,D,E belong to [-1, 1] and let p(z) be an analytic function with fixed initial coefficient defined in the open unit disk. Conditions on A,B,D,and E are determined so that 1+{\alpha}zp'(z) being subordinated to (1+Dz)/(1+Ez) implies…
The sequence of 1/2-discrepancy sums of $\{x + i \theta \bmod 1\}$ is realized through a sequence of substitutions on an alphabet of three symbols; particular attention is paid to $x=0$. The first application is to show that any asymptotic…
If an irreducible fraction $\frac mn>0$ can be decomposed into the sum of several irreducible proper fractions with different denominators, and the positive number smaller than $\frac mn$ in fractional ideal $\frac 1n\mathbb Z$ can not be…
Let $m(G)$ be the infimum of the volumes of all open subgroups of a unimodular locally compact group $G$. Suppose integrable functions $\phi_1 , \phi_2 \colon G \to [0,1]$ satisfy $\| \phi_1 \| \leq \| \phi_2 \|$ and $\| \phi_1 \| + \|…
In this paper, we study the following Kirchhoff type problem:% $$ \left\{\aligned&-\bigg(\alpha\int_{\bbr^3}|\nabla u|^2dx+1\bigg)\Delta u+(\lambda a(x)+a_0)u=|u|^{p-2}u&\text{ in }\bbr^3,\\%…
Let $k\geq 2$ be an integer and let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function. Given $k$ non-negative distinct integers $h_1,\ldots,h_k$, the Chowla conjecture claims that $\sum_{n\leq x}\lambda(n+h_1)\cdots \lambda(n+h_k)=o(x)$ as $x\to\infty$.…
We study some properties of the function $\mu_\alpha (t)$ associated with the Minkowski diagonal continued fraction for real $\alpha$.
We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.
For $ -1 \leq B \leq 1$ and $A>B$, let $\mathcal{S}^*[A,B]$ denote the class of generalized Janowski starlike functions consisting of all normalized analytic functions $f$ defined by the subordination $z f'(z)/f(z) \prec (1+ A z)/(1+ B z)$…
Solutions to elliptic equations often exhibit higher regularity properties such as \emph{higher integrability}. That is, for instance, a solution $u$ to a system that a priori only satisfies $ u \in W^{1,r}$ is more regular and even in the…
Consider a normal function $f$ on the ordinals (i. e. a function $f$ that is strictly increasing and continuous at limit stages). By enumerating the fixed points of $f$ we obtain a faster normal function $f'$, called the derivative of $f$.…
Let $\chi$ be a real non-principal character modulo a prime $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the corresponding $L$-function. We prove that for any real number $s\geq 1$ there holds $$ -\frac{L'(s,\chi )}{L(s,\chi)}\leq c \log q,$$ where $c$ can be…
