Let f(z) = sum_n a(n) n^{(k-1)/2} e(nz) be a cusp form for Gamma_0(N), character chi and weight k geq 4. Let q(x) = x^2 + sx + t be a polynomial with integral coefficients. It is shown that sum_{n \leq X} a(q(n)) = cX + O(X^{6/7+eps}) for…
Consider the real numbers $$ \ell_{n,k} = \ln\left( \tfrac{3}{2}\,k+\sqrt{\left(\tfrac{3}{2}\,k \right)^2 + 3\,n} \right) $$ and the intervals $\mathcal{L}_{n,k} = \left]\ell_{n,k}-\ln 3,\ell_{n,k}\right]$. For all $n \geq 1$, define $$…
Let $R$ be the polydisc algebra or the Wiener algebra. It is shown that the group $SL_n(R)$ is generated by the subgroup of elementary matrices with all diagonal entries $1$ and at most one nonzero off-diagonal entry. The result an easy…
We consider the expansion of the square of a complete homogeneous function $h_\lambda$, or of an elementary symmetric function $e_\lambda$, in the basis of Schur functions. This square also decomposes into two plethysms, $s_2[h_\lambda]$…
Polylogarithmic functions (polylogs) in $n$ variables can be viewed as elements of $(U\mathfrak{p}_{m})^*$, the dual of the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{p}_{m}$ of infinitesimal spherical pure braids with…
Let St denote the Steinberg module of $SL_n(Q)$ tensored with Q. Let Sh denote the sharbly resolution of St. By Borel-Serre duality, $H^{n(n-1)/2-i}(SL_n(Z),Q)$ is isomorphic to $H_i(SL_n(Z),St)$. The latter is isomorphic to the homology of…
For $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\ell\in\{0,1,\dots,n\}$, we consider the function extracting the $\ell$th coefficient of the Ehrhart polynomials of lattice polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. These functions form a basis of the space of unimodular…
We prove an asymptotic formula with four main terms for the fourth moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions unconditionally. Our proof is based on the work of Li , Soundararajan, and Soundararajan-Young. Our proof requires several new…
We give an interpretation of sl_n webs as morphisms between certain singular Soergel bimodules. We explain how this is a combinatorial, algebraic version of the geometric Satake equivalence (in type A). We then q-deform the construction,…
Let $P(x)$ be an irreducible quadratic polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$. We show that for almost all $n$, $P(n)$ does not lie in the range of Euler's totient function.
Remarkably simple closed-form expressions for the elements of the groups SU(n), SL(n,R), and SL(n,C) with n=2, 3, and 4 are obtained using linear functions of biquaternions instead of n x n matrices. These representations do not directly…
We have computed the simplest five point function in $\mathcal{N} = 4$ SYM at two loops using the hexagonalization approach to correlation functions. Along the way we have determined all two-particle mirror contributions at two loops and we…
Recently, Shen (2016) and Alanazi et al. (2016) studied the arithmetic properties of the $\ell$-regular overpartition function $\overline{A}_\ell (n)$, which counts the number of overpartitions of $n$ into parts not divisible by $\ell$. In…
We count algebraic points of bounded height and degree on the graphs of certain functions analytic on the unit disk, obtaining a bound which is polynomial in the degree and in the logarithm of the multiplicative height. We combine this work…
I show that the projective Schur functions may be interpreted as bispherical functions of either the triple (q(n),gl(n,n),q(n)), where q(n) is the "odd" (queer) analog of the general liner Lie algebra, or the triple (p(n),gl(n,n),p(n)),…
It has been conjectured by P\'{o}lya and Szeg\"{o} seventy years ago that the planar set which minimizes the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-Laplace operator among polygons with $n$ sides and fixed area is the regular polygon. Despite its…
We study solutions of a quadratic matrix equation arising in Riemannian geometry. Let $S$ be a real symmetric $n\times n$-matrix with zeros on the diagonal and let $\theta$ be a real number. We construct nonzero solutions $(S,\theta)$ of…
We study differentiability properties of functions defined in the euclidean space in terms of a conical square function which is analogue to the classical square function introduced by Stein and Zygmund in the sixties. Pointwise…
We discussed some properties of a family of symmetric spaces, namely $\mathcal{P}(n):=SL(n,\mathbb{R})/SO(n,\mathbb{R})$, where we replace the Riemannian metric on $\mathcal{P}(n)$ with a premetric suggested by Selberg. These properties are…
We provide a representation in terms of certain canonical functions for a sequence of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a weight that is strictly positive and analytic on the unit circle. These formulas yield a complete asymptotic…
