Let A be an arbitrary countable set of reals, for example A=Q. Let g be an arbitrary mapping from A into the positive reals, for example g(a)=2^a. We show how a strictly increasing real function f can be constructed such that f'(x)=g(x) for…

We study the learnability of sums of independent integer random variables given a bound on the size of the union of their supports. For $\mathcal{A} \subset \mathbf{Z}_{+}$, a sum of independent random variables with collective support…

In this note, we give the explicit formula for the number of multisubsets of a finite abelian group $G$ with any given size such that the sum is equal to a given element $g\in G$. This also gives the number of partitions of $g$ into a given…

We provide the analytic forms of the distributions for the sum of ordered spacings. We do this both for the case where the boundaries are included in the calculation of the spacings and the case where they are excluded. Both the probability…

The paper considers estimates for some sums and products of functions of prime numbers. Several assertions on this topic have been proven. We also study extremal estimates for strongly additive and strongly multiplicative arithmetic…

In this short note, we obtain error estimates for Riemann sums of some singular functions.

In this paper, we focus on the existence of accumulation points of the subset defined by the real projection of the zeros of the partial sums of the Riemann zeta functions. That would imply the existence of an infinite amount of zeros of…

We show that, for a finite set $A$ of real numbers, the size of the set $$\frac{A+A}{A+A} = \left\{ \frac{a+b}{c+d} : a,b,c,d \in A, c+d \neq 0 \right \}$$ is bounded from below by $$\left|\frac{A+A}{A+A} \right| \gg \frac{|A|^{2+1/4}}{|A /…

Let $A$ be a set of positive integers. We define a positive integer $n$ as an $A$-practical number if every positive integer from the set $\left\{1,\ldots ,\sum_{d\in A, d\mid n}d\right\}$ can be written as a sum of distinct divisors of $n$…

We present a simple representation for analytically continued nested harmonic sums for the arbitrary complex argument. This representation can be obtained for a wide range of nested harmonic sums from a precomputed database for the pole…

In this paper we demonstrate how to partition the real number line into four subsets which may be reassembled, via "piecewise rigid functions" that preserve Lebesgue measure, into two copies of the line. We then employ a similar process to…

We estimate the sum of products or quotients of $L$-functions, where the sum is taken over all quadratic extensions of given genus over a fixed global function field. Our estimate for the sum of the quotient of two $L$-functions is…

We study partitions of complex numbers as sums of non-negative powers of a fixed algebraic number $\beta$. We prove that if $\beta$ is real quadratic, then the number of partitions is always finite if and only if some conjugate of $\beta$…

We give a bijective parameter representation for a sum of squares of numbers being equal to another sum of squares of numbers.

For any finite set of integers X, define its sumset X+X to be {x+y: x, y in X}. In a recent paper, Martin and O'Bryant investigated the distribution of |A+A| given the uniform distribution on subsets A of {0, 1, ..., n-1}. They also…

Let $s_a(n)$ denote the sum of digits of an integer $n$ in the base $a$ expansion. Answering, in a extended form, a question of Deshouillers, Habsieger, Laishram, and Landreau, we show that, provided $a$ and $b$ are multiplicatively…

We show that if $A\subset \mathbb{Z}$ is a finite set of integers in which every integer is divisible by $O(1)$ many primes then \[\max(\lvert A+A\rvert,\lvert AA\rvert) \geq \lvert A\rvert^{12/7-o(1)}\] and, for any $m\geq 2$,…

We improve a result of Solymosi on sum-products in R, namely, we prove that max{|A+A|,|AA|}\gg |A|^{4/3+c}, where c>0 is an absolute constant. New lower bounds for sums of sets with small product set are found. Previous results are improved…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain asymptotic estimates for the mean value of the number of representations of an integer as a sum of two primes. By proving a corresponding Omega-term, we prove that our result is essentially the best…

Let $A$ be a subset of a finite field $F := \Z/q\Z$ for some prime $q$. If $|F|^\delta < |A| < |F|^{1-\delta}$ for some $\delta > 0$, then we prove the estimate $|A+A| + |A.A| \geq c(\delta) |A|^{1+\eps}$ for some $\eps = \eps(\delta) > 0$.…
