Let $k\ge 2$ be a fixed integer. We consider sums of type $\sum_{n_1^2+\cdots+ n_k^2\le x} F(n_1,\ldots,n_k)$, taken over the $k$-dimensional spherical region $\{(n_1,\ldots,n_k)\in {\Bbb Z}^k: n_1^2+\cdots+ n_k^2\le x\}$, where $F:{\Bbb…

Let $\Delta(x)$ be the error term of the Dirichlet divisor problem. In this paper, we establish an asymptotic formula of the seventh-power moment of $\Delta(x)$ and prove that \begin{equation*} \int_2^T \Delta^7(x)\mathrm{d}x=…

Let $ k,l \geq 2$ be natural numbers, and let $d_k,d_l$ denote the $k$-fold and $l$-fold divisor functions, respectively. We analyse the asymptotic behavior of the sum $\sum_{x<n\leq x+H_1}d_k(n)d_l(n+h)$. More precisely, let…

Let -\Delta denote the Dirichlet Laplace operator on a bounded open set in \mathbb{R}^d. We study the sum of the negative eigenvalues of the operator -h^2 \Delta - 1 in the semiclassical limit h \to 0+. We give a new proof that yields not…

Update: This result was obtained by Milinovich with a better error term. He used $\zeta'(s)$, but we considered $Z'(t)$. We corrected a typo in the main theorem. We consider the sum of the square of the derivative of Hardy's $Z$-function…

This paper studies the first moment of symmetric-square $L$-functions at the critical point in the weight aspect. Asymptotics with the best known error term $O(k^{-1/2})$ were obtained independently by Fomenko in 2005 and by Sun in 2013. We…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we establish an upper bound for the sum of the M{\" o}bius function up to $x$. Our method is based on estimating the frequency with which intervals of a given length can contain an unusual number of ordinates…

In this paper, we study the sum of the divisor function over sets with digit restrictions.

We prove an asymptotic formula for the shifted convolution of the divisor functions $d_k(n)$ and $d(n)$ with $k \geq 4$, which is uniform in the shift parameter and which has a power-saving error term, improving results obtained previously…

Given a suitable arithmetic function h, we investigate the average order of h as it ranges over the values taken by an integral binary form F. A general upper bound is obtained for this quantity, in which the dependence upon the…

An asymptotic formula is proved for the k-fold divisor function averaged over homogeneous polynomials of degree k in k-1 variables coming from incomplete norm forms.

Let $k$ be a function field of one variable over a finite field with the characteristic not equal to two. In this paper, we consider the prehomogeneous representation of the space of binary quadratic forms over $k$. We have two main…

Explicit bounds on the tails of the zeta function $\zeta$ are needed for applications, notably for integrals involving $\zeta$ on vertical lines or other paths going to infinity. Here we bound weighted $L^2$ norms of tails of $\zeta$. Two…

For a finite sequence of positive integers $A=\{a_j\}_{j=1}^{k},$ we prove a recursion for divisor function $\sigma_{x}^{(A)}(n)=\sum_{d|n,\enskip d\in A}d^x.$ As a corollary, we give an affirmative solution of the problem posed in 1969 by…

We derive an upper bound for the mean of the supremum of the empirical process indexed by a class of functions that are known to have variance bounded by a small constant $\delta$. The bound is expressed in the uniform entropy integral of…

We prove that $d_k(n)=d_k(n+B)$ infinitely often for any positive integers $k$ and $B$, where $d_k(n)$ denotes the number of divisors of $n$ coprime to $k$.

In this work, we study the $k$-means cost function. Given a dataset $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ and an integer $k$, the goal of the Euclidean $k$-means problem is to find a set of $k$ centers $C \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\Phi(C, X)…

In this article, we prove an asymptotic formula for the mean value of long smoothed Dirichlet polynomials with divisor coefficients. Our result has a main term that includes all lower order terms and a power saving error term. This is…

For integer $n$ and real $u$, define $\Delta(n,u):= |\{d : d \mid n,\,{\rm e}^u <d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1} \}|$. Then, put $ \Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}} \Delta(n,u).$ We provide uniform upper and lower bounds for the mean-value of…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we study negative moments of the Riemann zeta-function and obtain asymptotic formulas in certain ranges of the shift in $\zeta(s)$. For example, integrating $|\zeta(1/2+\alpha+it)|^{-2k}$ with respect to $t$…
