For an arithmetical function $f$, its Ramanujan expansion is a series expansion in the form $f(n)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty}a(k) c_k(n)$ where $a(k)$ are complex numbers and $c_k(n):= \sum\limits_{\substack{m=1\\(m, k)=1}}^{k}e^{\frac{2\pi…

New bounds on the number of similar or directly similar copies of a pattern within a finite subset of the line or the plane are proved. The number of equilateral triangles whose vertices all lie within an $n$-point subset of the plane is…

We compute the explicit sharp constants of Hardy inequalities in the cone $\mathbb{R}_{k_+}^{n}:=\mathbb{R}^{n-k}\times (\mathbb{R}_{+})^{k}=\{(x_{1},...,x_{n})|x_{n-k+1}>0,...,x_{n}>0\}$ with $1\leq k\leq n$. Furthermore, the spherical…

The classical theorem of Birkhoff states that the $T^N f(x) = (1/N)\sum_{k=0}^{N-1} f(\sigma^k x)$ converges almost everywhere for $x\in X$ and $f\in L^{1}(X)$, where $\sigma$ is a measure preserving transformation of a probability measure…

A classical observation of Riesz says that truncations of a general $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n z^n$ in the Hardy space $H^1$ do not converge in $H^1$. A substitute positive result is proved: these partial sums always converge in the Bergman…

Let $\pi S(t)$ denote the argument of the Riemann zeta-function at the point $s=\tfrac12+it$. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we give a new and simple proof of the sharpest known bound for $S(t)$. We discuss a generalization of this bound…

It is a well-known result by Saks \cite{Saks1934} that there exists a function $f \in L^1(\mathbb{R}^2)$ so that for almost every $(x,y)\in \mathbb{R}^2$ \[ \lim_{\substack{\mathrm{diam} R\rightarrow 0, \\ (x,y) \in R \in…

We generalize a classical theorem of Besicovitch, showing that, for any positive integers $k<n$, if $E\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a Souslin set which is not $\mathcal{H}^k$-$\sigma$-finite, then $E$ contains a purely unrectifiable closed set…

Let $\Theta$ denote the supremum of the real parts of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We demonstrate that $\Theta=1$, which entails the existence of infinitely many Riemann zeros off the critical line (thus disproving the Riemann…

We prove two-sided inequalities between the integral moduli of smoothness of a function on $\mathbb{R}^d/\mathbb{T}^d$ and the weighted tail-type integrals of its Fourier transform/series. Sharpness of obtained results in particular is…

We characterise functions for the dual spaces of entire functions f such that fe^{-\phi}\in L^p(\C^n,\rho^{-2}dA), 0<p\leq 1, where \phi is a subharmonic weight and \rho^{-2} is a positive function called under certain conditions…

We prove the identity \[ 2W_1(x) + \log 4 + \psi\left(\tfrac{1}{2} + x\right) + \psi\left(\tfrac{3}{2} - x\right) = 0, \] where $\psi$ is the digamma function and \[ W_1(x) = 2\int_0^\infty \Re\left( \frac{y}{(y^2+1)(e^{\pi(y+2ix)} - 1)}…

In 2022, Z.-W. Sun defined \begin{equation*} w_k^{(\alpha)}{(x)}=\sum_{j=1}^{k}w(k,j)^{\alpha}x^{j-1}, \end{equation*} where $k,\alpha$ are positive integers and $w(k,j)=\frac{1}{j}\binom{k-1}{j-1}\binom{k+j}{j-1}$. Let $(x)_{0}=1$ and…

By using new power inequalities we give an elementary proof of an important relation for the Riemann zeta-function |\zeta(1-s)| <= |\zeta(s)| in the strip 0< Re s<1/2,\ |\Im s| >= 12. Moreover, we establish a sufficient condition of the…

Formulas of $\pi(x)$-fine structure are presented.

In this note, we establish a multiplicity theorem for a nonlocal discrete problem of the type $$\cases{-\left(a\sum_{m=1}^{n+1}|x_m-x_{m-1}|^2+b\right)(x_{k+1}-2x_k+x_{k-1})=h_k(x_k)\hskip 10pt k=1,...,n, \cr & \cr x_0=x_{n+1}=0\cr}$$…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the $\nu$-symmetric Riemman sums for functionals of a self-similar centered Gaussian process $X$ with increment exponent $0<\alpha<1$. We prove that, under mild assumptions on the covariance of $X$, the…

The "pancake problem" asks how many prefix reversals are sufficient to sort any permutation $\pi \in \mathcal{S}_k$ to the identity. We write $f(k)$ to denote this quantity. The best known bounds are that $\frac{15}{14}k -O(1) \le f(k)\le…

We establish asymptotic estimates for the least upper bounds of approximations in the uniform metric by Fourier sums of order $n-1$ of classes of $2\pi$-periodic Weyl--Nagy differentiable functions, $W^r_{\beta,p}, 1\le p\le \infty,…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $x$ be a $p$-adic integer. In this paper, we establish supercongruences for $$ \sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\frac{\binom{x}{k}\binom{x+k}{k}(-4)^k}{(dk+1)\binom{2k}{k}}\pmod{p^2} $$ and $$…
