We review the O(a) improvement of lattice QCD with special emphasis on the motivation for performing the improvement programme non-perturbatively and the general concepts of on-shell improvement. The present status of the calculations of…

Let $\Lambda$ be the von Mangoldt function and $r_{Q}\left(n\right)=\sum_{m_{1}+m_{2}^{2}+m_{3}^{2}=n}\Lambda\left(m_{1}\right)$ be the counting function for the numbers that can be written as sum of a prime and two squares (that we will…

Let $p_{n}$ denote the $n$th prime and for any fixed positive integer $k$ and $X\geq 2$, put \[ G_{k}(X):=\max _{p _{n+k}\leq X} \min \{ p_{n+1}-p_{n}, \ldots , p_{n+k}-p_{n+k-1} \}. \] Ford, Maynard and Tao proved that there exists an…

The asymptotic formula of the fourth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the central value was predicted in a conjecture by J. B. Conrey, D. W. Farmer, J. P. Keating, M. O. Rubinstein, and N. C. Snaith, and the prime moduli case was proved…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $\leq x$ which can be written as the product of $k ~(\geq 2)$ distinct primes $p_1\cdots p_k$ with each prime factor in an arithmetic progression $p_j\equiv a_j \bmod q$, $(a_j,…

Hal\'asz's Theorem gives an upper bound for the mean value of a multiplicative function $f$. The bound is sharp for general such $f$, and, in particular, it implies that a multiplicative function with $|f(n)|\le 1$ has either mean value…

Littlewood asked how small the ratio $||f||_4/||f||_2$ (where $||.||_\alpha$ denotes the $L^\alpha$ norm on the unit circle) can be for polynomials $f$ having all coefficients in $\{1,-1\}$, as the degree tends to infinity. Since 1988, the…

We develop a general method for lower bounding the variance of sequences in arithmetic progressions mod $q$, summed over all $q \leq Q$, building on previous work of Liu, Perelli, Hooley, and others. The proofs lower bound the variance by…

We show, for any $q\ge 3$ and distinct reduced residues $a,b \pmod q$, the existence of certain hypothetical sets of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions lying off the critical line implies that $\pi(x;q,a)<\pi(x;q,b)$ for a set of real $x$ of…

We prove the q-aspect analogue of Heath-Brown's result on the twelfth power moment of the Riemann zeta function for Dirichlet L-functions to odd prime power moduli. Our results rely on the p-adic method of stationary phase for sums of…

We consider the H\"older continuity for the Dirichlet problem at the boundary. Almgren introduced the multivalued; Q-valued functions for studying regularity of minimal surfaces in higher codimension. The H\"older continuity in the interior…

This paper is devoted to establish nontrivial effective lower bounds for the least common multiple of consecutive terms of a sequence ${(u_n)}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ whose general term has the form $u_n = r {[n]}_q + u_0$, where $q , r$ are…

The moments of central values of families of L-functions have recently attracted much attention and, with the work of Keating and Snaith, there are now precise conjectures for their limiting values. We develop a simple method to establish…

We show under the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis that for every $\delta>0$, almost every prime $q$ in $[Q,2Q]$ has the expected of prime primitive roots in the interval $[x,x+x^{\frac{1}2+\delta}]$ provided $Q$ is not more than…

Let E be an elliptic curve over the number field Q. In 1988, Koblitz conjectured an asymptotic for the number of primes p for which the cardinality of the group of F_p-points of E is prime. However, the constant occurring in his asymptotic…

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…

Let $1\le p<q\le\infty$ and let $T$ be a subadditive operator acting on $L^p$ and $L^q$. We prove that $T$ is bounded on the Orlicz space $L^\phi$, where $\phi^{-1}(u)=u^{1/p}\rho(u^{1/q-1/p})$ for some concave function $\rho$ and \[…

In this paper, we establish some nontrivial and effective upper bounds for the least common multiple of consecutive terms of a finite arithmetic progression. Precisely, we prove that for any two coprime positive integers $a$ and $b$, with…
