The Fourier Entropy-Influence (FEI) Conjecture of Friedgut and Kalai states that ${\bf H}[f] \leq C \cdot {\bf I}[f]$ holds for every Boolean function $f$, where ${\bf H}[f]$ denotes the spectral entropy of $f$, ${\bf I}[f]$ is its total…

It is a well-known fact that Riemann Hypothesis will follows if the function identically equal to -1 can be arbitrarily approximated in the norm $\norma{.}$ of $L^{2}([0,1],dx)$ by functions of the form $f(x)=\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_{k}…

Fourier extension is an approximation method that alleviates the periodicity requirements of Fourier series and avoids the Gibbs phenomenon when approximating functions. We describe a similar extension approach using regular wavelet bases…
