We give a level one result for the "symmetry integral", say $I_f(N,h)$, of essentially bounded $f:\N \to \R$; i.e., we get a kind of "square-root cancellation" \thinspace bound for the mean-square (in $N<x\le 2N$) of the "symmetry"…

The weighted Selberg integral is a discrete mean-square, that is a generalization of the classical Selberg integral of primes to an arithmetic function $f$, whose values in a short interval are suitably attached to a weight function. We…

We study the arithmetic (real) function f=g*1, with g "essentially bounded" and supported over the integers of [1,Q]. In particular, we obtain non-trivial bounds, through f "correlations", for the "Selberg integral" and the "symmetry…

We study the \lq \lq symmetry integral\rq \rq, \thinspace say $I_f$, of some arithmetic functions $f:\N \rightarrow \R$; we obtain from lower bounds of $I_f$ (for a large class of arithmetic functions $f$) lower bounds for the \lq \lq…

We study the arithmetic (real) function, with f 'essentially bounded'. In particular, we obtain non-trivial bounds, through f 'correlations', for the 'Selberg integral' and the 'symmetry integral' of f in almost all short intervals…

The present paper is a dissertation on the possible consequences of a conjectural bound for the so-called \thinspace modified Selberg integral of the divisor function $d_3$, i.e. a discrete version of the classical Selberg integral, where…

Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we use Beurling-Selberg extremal functions to bound the mean and mean square of the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a large prime modulus $q$. As applications, we give alternative proofs of…

We prove a non-trivial result for the,say,modified Selberg integral $\modSel_3(N,h)$, of the divisor function $d_3(n):= \sum_{a}\sum_{b}\sum_{c, abc=n}1$; this integral is a slight modification of the corresponding Selberg integral, that…

We make explicit a result of Selberg on the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions averaged over non-principal characters modulo a prime $q$. As a corollary, we show for all sufficiently large prime $q$ that the height of the lowest…

Let $f\in \ell^2(\mathbb Z)$. Define the average of $ f$ over the square integers by $ A_N f(x):=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{k=1}^N f(x+k^2) $. We show that $ A_N$ satisfies a local scale-free $ \ell ^{p}$-improving estimate, for $ 3/2 < p \leq 2$:…

Let $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}$ in the upper half-plane and let $I$ be an interval. We construct an analogue of Selberg's majorant of the characteristic function of $I$ that vanishes at the point $\alpha$. The construction is based on the…

In this paper we investigate a high dimensional version of Selberg's minorant problem for the indicator function of an interval. In particular, we study the corresponding problem of minorizing the indicator function of the box…

If $$ \Delta(x) \;:=\; \sum_{n\leqslant x}c_n - Cx\qquad(C>0) $$ denotes the error term in the classical Rankin-Selberg problem, then we obtain a non-trivial upper bound for the mean square of $\Delta(x+U) - \Delta(x)$ for a certain range…

First we generalize a famous lemma of Gallagher on the mean square estimate for exponential sums by plugging a weight in the right hand side of Gallagher's original inequality. Then we apply it in the special case of the Cesaro weight, in…

The Selberg sieve provides majorants for certain arithmetic sequences, such as the primes and the twin primes. We prove an L^2-L^p restriction theorem for majorants of this type. An immediate application is to the estimation of exponential…

The purpose of this investigation is to extend basic equations and inequalities which hold for functions $f$ in a Bernstein space $B_\sigma^2$ to larger spaces by adding a remainder term which involves the distance of $f$ from $B_\sigma^2$.…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper bounds with explicit main terms for moduli of $\left(\cL'/\cL\right)(s)$ and $\log{\cL(s)}$ for $1/2+\delta\leq\sigma<1$, fixed $\delta\in(0,1/2)$ and for functions in…

We consider a family of self-adjoint Ornstein--Uhlenbeck operators $L_{\alpha} $ in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H having the same gaussian invariant measure $\mu$ for all $\alpha \in [0,1]$. We study the Dirichlet problem for the…

The logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Hamming cube {0,1}^n states that for any real-valued function f on the cube holds E(f,f) \ge 2 Ent(f^2), where E(f,f) is the appropriate Dirichlet form (also known as "sum of influences"). We show…

In this paper we explore the possibility of performing Heisenberg limited quantum metrology of a phase, without any prior, by employing only maximally entangled states. Starting from the estimator introduced by Higgins et al. in New J.…
