We show that there is a positive constant $c_0$ such that \[\sum_{n\le x}\mu^2(n^2+1)c_0x+O_{\varepsilon}(x^{7/12+\varepsilon})\] for any fixed $\varepsilon>0$. This improves a result of Estermann [3] from 1931, in which the error term had…

Tchakaloff's theorem from 1957 asserts the existence of exact quadrature rules with non-negative weights for any polynomial space of finite degree on $\mathbb{R}^d$ if the underlying measure is positive, compactly supported, and absolutely…

Suppose that $A \subset \mathbb{R}$ has positive upper density, \[ \limsup_{|I| \to \infty} \frac{|A \cap I|}{|I|} = \delta > 0,\] and $P(t) \in \mathbb{R}[t]$ is a polynomial with no constant or linear term, or more generally a non-flat…

We prove, under certain conditions on $(\alpha,\beta)$, that each Schwartz function $f$ such that $f(\pm n^{\alpha}) = \hat{f}(\pm n^{\beta}) = 0, \forall n \ge 0$ must vanish identically, complementing a series of recent results involving…

A $\textit{square-full}$ number is a positive integer for which all its prime divisors divide itself at least twice. The counting function of square-full integers of the form $f(n)$ for $n\leqslant N$ is denoted by…

A set A is square-difference free (henceforth SDF) if there do not exist x,y\in A, x\ne y, such that |x-y| is a square. Let sdf(n) be the size of the largest SDF subset of {1,...,n}. Ruzsa has shown that sdf(n) = \Omega(n^{0.5(1+ \log_{65}…

We present counterexamples to Fujita's conjecture in positive characteristics. Precisely, we show that over any algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ and for any positive integer $m$, there exists a smooth projective…

We introduce an interesting method of proving separable reduction theorems - the method of elementary submodels. We are studying whether it is true that a set (function) has given property if and only if it has this property with respect to…

A classical result states that if $f(z)$ is a polynomial of degree at most $n$ with nonnegative coefficients, then $f(z)$ has no zeros in the sector $|\arg(z)| < \frac{\pi}{n}$ of the complex plane, and the bound $\frac{\pi}{n}$ is tight.…

Let $g$ be a entire function of exponential type on the complex plane $\mathbb C$, $Z=\{ z_k\}_{k=1,2,\dots}$ be a sequence of points in $\mathbb C$. We give a criterion for the existence of an entire function $f\neq 0$ of exponential type…

The main goal of this note is to prove the following theorem. If $A_n$ is a sequence of measurable sets in a $\sigma$-finite measure space $(X, \mathcal{A}, \mu)$ that covers $\mu$-a.e. $x \in X$ infinitely many times, then there exists a…

A well known result due to Carlson affirms that a power series with finite and positive radius of convergence R has no Ostrowski gaps if and only if the sequence of zeros of its nth sections is asymptotically equidistributed to {|z|=R}.…

It is shown how sums of squares of real valued functions can be used to give new proofs of the reality of the zeros of the Bessel functions $J_\alpha (z)$ when $\alpha \ge -1,$ confluent hypergeometric functions ${}_0F_1(c\/; z)$ when $c>0$…

We show that it is possible for a square integrable function on the circle, which is a sum of an almost everywhere convergent series of exponentials with positive frequencies, to not belong to the Hardy space. A consequence in the…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$ and let $f(t_1,...,t_d)$ be a power series in $d$ variables with coefficients in $K$ that is algebraic over the field of multivariate rational functions $K(t_1,...,t_d)$. We prove a generalization…

This paper presents the fascinating correspondence between the geometric function theory and the scattering amplitudes with $O(N)$ global symmetry. A crucial ingredient to show such correspondence is a fully crossing symmetric dispersion…

P\'olya's shire theorem identifies the final set of zeros of successive derivatives of an arbitrary meromorphic function with at least one pole with the Voronoi diagram of its finite poles. We prove a fixed-scale zero-counting law for…
