This article shows that on a closed interval $[a,b]$ a continuous function may be approximated to an arbitrary degree of accuracy using scattered translates of the general multiquadric $(x^2+c^2)^{k-1/2}$.
We consider the problem of solving a large-scale Quadratically Constrained Quadratic Program. Such problems occur naturally in many scientific and web applications. Although there are efficient methods which tackle this problem, they are…
Statistical inferences for quadratic functionals of linear regression parameter have found wide applications including signal detection, global testing, inferences of error variance and fraction of variance explained. Classical theory based…
This paper addresses a quadratic problem with assignment constraints, an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arisen from facility location, multiple-input multiple-output detection, and maximum mean discrepancy calculation et al. The…
For integers $k,t \geq 2$ and $1\leq r \leq t$ let $D_k(r,t;n)$ be the number of parts among all $k$-regular partitions (i.e., partitions of $n$ where all parts have multiplicity less than $k$) of $n$ that are congruent to $r$ modulo $t$.…
Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…
We study the solubility of cubic equations over the integers. Assuming a necessary congruence condition, the existence of such solutions is established when the $h$-invariant of $C$ is at least $14$, improving on work of Davenport-Lewis and…
The results of the computer hunt for the primes of the form $q = m^2+1$ up to $10^{20}$ are reported. The number of sign changes of the difference $\pi_q(x) - \frac{C_q}{2}\int_2^x{du \over \sqrt{u}\log(u)}$ and the error term for this…
We initiate the study of quadratic discrepancy for finite point sets on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$ with respect to upper Ahlfors regular probability measures. For a natural family of test sets given by left translations and…
We extend our relativistic quark model to the study of the decay Lambda_b -> Lambda_c ell nu and verify that the model satisfies the heavy-quark symmetry constraints at order 1/mQ^2. We isolate a strong dependence on a parameter which…
We consider an evolution equation involving the fractional powers, of order $s \in (0,1)$, of a symmetric and uniformly elliptic second order operator and Caputo fractional time derivative of order $\gamma \in (1,2]$. Since it has been…
We propose a new approach for the study of the quadratic stochastic Euclidean bipartite matching problem between two sets of $N$ points each, $N\gg 1$. The points are supposed independently randomly generated on a domain…
We construct real numbers $\alpha$ for which the pair correlation function \[N^{-1}#\{m<n\le N:||\alpha m^2-\alpha n^2||\le XN^{-1}\}\] tends to $X$ as $N$ grows. Moreover we show for any "Diophantine" $\alpha$ that the pair correlation…
Most quasi-Monte Carlo research focuses on sampling from the unit cube. Many problems, especially in computer graphics, are defined via quadrature over the unit triangle. Quasi-Monte Carlo methods for the triangle have been developed by…
The pair correlations of Farey fractions with denominators $q$ satisfying $(q,m)=1$, respectively $q\equiv b \pmod{m}$ with $(b,m)=1$, are shown to exist and are explicitly computed.
We use recent bounds on bilinear sums with modular square roots to study the distribution of solutions to congruences $x^2 \equiv p \pmod q$ with primes $p\le P$ and integers $q \le Q$. This can be considered as a combined scenario of Duke,…
We prove that the existence of infinitely many $(m_k, n_k) \in \mathbb{N}^2$ such that the difference of harmonic numbers $H_{m_k} - H_{n_k}$ approximates 1 well $$ \lim_{k \rightarrow \infty} \left| \sum_{\ell = n}^{m_k} \frac{1}{\ell} - 1…
Ratios of multiplicity moments, H_q (cumulant over factorial moments K_q/F_q), have been observed to show an oscillatory behaviour with respect to order, q. Recent studies of e^+e^- annihilations at LEP have shown, moreover, that the…
We consider the problem of finding, for a given quadratic measure of non-uniformity of a set of $N$ points (such as $L_2$ star-discrepancy or diaphony), the asymptotic distribution of this discrepancy for truly random points in the limit…
We solve the Random Euclidean Matching problem with exponent 2 for the Gaussian distribution defined on the plane. Previous works by Ledoux and Talagrand determined the leading behavior of the average cost up to a multiplicative constant.…
