The purpose of the present paper is to provide a general overview of a variety of results related to a category of cotangent sums which have been proven to be associated to the so-called Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis.…
In this paper, we consider the fractional sum of the divisor functions. We can improve previous results considered by Bordell\'{e}s \cite{Bo} and Liu-Wu-Yang \cite{LWY}.
We generalize Warnaar's elliptic extension of a Macdonald multiparameter summation formula to Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus.
Sarnak's M\"{o}bius disjointness conjecture asserts that for any zero entropy dynamical system $(X,T)$, $\frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=1} ^N f(T^n x) \mu (n)= o(1)$ for every $f\in \mathcal{C}(X)$ and every $x\in X$. We construct examples showing…
New unconditional estimates of the divisor and totient functions are contributed to the literature. These results are consistent with the Riemann hypothesis and seem to solve the Nicolas inequality for all sufficiently large integers.
The validity of the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) on the location of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann $\zeta$-function is directly related to the growth of the Mertens function $M(x) \,=\,\sum_{k=1}^x \mu(k)$, where $\mu(k)$ is the M\"{o}bius…
The outline of a recent approach to quantum gravity is presented. Novel ingredients include: (1) Affine kinematical variables; (2) Affine coherent states; (3) Projection operator approach toward quantum constraints; (4) Continuous-time…
In his deathbed letter to Hardy, Ramanujan gave a vague definition of a mock modular function: at each root of unity its asymptotics matches the one of a modular form, though a choice of the modular function depends on the root of unity.…
In this note we show that the methods of Motohashi and Meurman yield the same upper bound on the error term in the binary additive divisor problem. With this goal, we improve an estimate in the proof of Motohashi.
We formulate and prove a finite version of Vinogradov's bilinear sum inequality. We use it together with Ratner's joinings theorems to prove that the Mobius function is disjoint from discrete horocycle flows on $\Gamma \backslash…
MacMahon showed that the generating function for partitions into at most $k$ parts can be decomposed into a partial fractions-type sum indexed by the partitions of $k$. In this present work, a generalization of MacMahon's result is given,…
We introduce a weighted sum of irreducible character ratios as an estimator for commutator probabilities. The estimator yields Frobenius formula when applied to a regular representation
This paper gives a short but reasonably comprehensive review of Ramanujan's {_1\psi_1} summation and its generalisations. It covers the history of Ramanujan's summation, simple applications to sums of squares and orthogonal polynomials,…
In this short note we extend a result of Jahangiri and Farahmand \cite{JM} concerning functions of bounded turning to a more general class of functions.
Extensive studies of Boolean functions are carried in many fields. The Mobius transform is often involved for these studies. In particular, it plays a central role in coincident functions, the class of Boolean functions invariant by this…
In this paper, we study $C(x, y)$, the second moment of Ramanujan sums. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis(RH), we establish an asymptotic formula for $C(x, y)$ with improved error term. Our analysis applies uniformly to the case where $x$ and…
We supplement the result of the first part of the work with estimates of the integrals of the difference of subharmonic functions in measure with some deterioration of the absolute constants, but these estimates have the form of a…
We show that all $q$-semimultiplicative sequences are asymptotically orthogonal to the M\"obius function, thus proving the Sarnak conjecture for this class of sequences. This generalises analogous results for the sum-of-digits function and…
We show that Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius disjointness holds in every uniquely ergodic modelof a quasi-discrete spectrum automorphism. A consequence of this result is that, for each non constant polynomial $P\in\R[x]$ with irrational…
We introduce M\"obius functions of higher rank, a new class of arithmetic functions so that the classical M\"obius function is of rank 2. With this idea, we evaluate Dirichlet series on the sum of the reciprocal square of all $r$-free…
