In previous works, the second author defined directional Robin constants associated to a compact, nonpolar subset $K$ of an algebraic curve $A$ in $\mathbb{C}^N$ and related these to a natural class of Chebyshev constants for $K$. We define…

Let $n\geq C$ for a large universal constant $C>0$, and let $B$ be a convex body in $R^n$ such that for any $(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n)\in B$, any choice of signs $\varepsilon_1,\varepsilon_2,\dots,\varepsilon_n\in\{-1,1\}$ and for any permutation…

We generalize the Novikov inequalities for 1-forms in two different directions: first, we allow non-isolated critical points (assuming that they are non-degenerate in the sense of R.Bott), and, secondly, we strengthen the inequalities by…

We prove an analogue of Chebyshev's alternation theorem for linearly independent discrete functions $\Phi_n=\{\varphi_k\}_{k=1}^n$ on the interval $[0,q]_{\mathbb{Z}}=[0,q]\cap \mathbb{Z}$. In particular, we establish that the polynomial of…

We find a new formula for the orthonormal polynomials corresponding to a measure mu on the unit circle whose Verblunsky coefficients are periodic. The formula is presented using the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind and the…

In this paper our aim is to deduce some complete monotonicity properties and functional inequalities for the Bickley function. The key tools in our proofs are the classical integral inequalities, like Chebyshev, H\"older-Rogers,…

We show that the stability problem and the problem of constructing Barabanov norms can be resolved for planar linear switching systems in an explicit form. This can be done for every compact control set of $2 \times 2$ matrices. If the…

We present lower estimates for the best constant appearing in the weak $(1,1)$ maximal inequality in the space $(\R^n,\|\cdot\|_{\iy})$. We show that this constant grows to infinity faster than $(\log n)^{1-o(1)}$ when $n$ tends to…

Chebotarev's theorem on roots of unity states that all minors of the Fourier matrix of prime size are non-vanishing. This result has been rediscovered several times and proved via different techniques. We follow the proof of Evans and…

A rational function is the ratio of two complex polynomials in one variable without common roots. Its degree is the maximum of the degrees of the numerator and the denominator. Rational functions belong to the same class if one turns into…

Using Chebyshev polynomialsof both kinds, we construct rational fractions which are convergents of the smallest root of $x^2-\alpha x+1$ for $\alpha=3,4,5,\dots$.Some of the underlying identities suggest an identity involving…

This paper proves that given a doubling weight $w$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$, there exists a positive constant $K_w$ such that for each positive integer $n$ and each integer $N\geq \max_{x\in \mathbb{S}^{d-1}}…

Let either $R_k(t) := |P_k(e^{it})|^2$ or $R_k(t) := |Q_k(e^{it})|^2$, where $P_k$ and $Q_k$ are the usual Rudin-Shapiro polynomials of degree $n-1$ with $n=2^k$. In a recent paper we combined close to sharp upper bounds for the modulus of…

In this paper, we give a short proof of the weak convergence to the Kesten-McKay distribution for the normalized spectral measures of random $N$-lifts. This result is derived by generalizing a formula of Friedman involving Chebyshev…

In this note we show that if a continuous-time, nonlinear, time-invariant, finite-dimensional system evolves on a compact subset of Rn and if the Jacobian of the vector field is Hurwitz at each point of the compact set, then there is a…

We prove that the sum of entries of the suitably normalized groundstate vector of the O(1) loop model with periodic boundary conditions on a periodic strip of size 2n is equal to the total number of n x n alternating sign matrices. This is…

Let function $f$ be normalized, analytic and univalent in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}=\{z:|z|<1\}$ and $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty} a_n z^n$. Using a method based on Grusky coefficients we study several problems over that class of univalent…

We investigate the Cauchy problem for a two-component generalization of the Novikov equation with cubic nonlinearity -- an integrable system whose solutions may develop strong nonlinear phenomena such as gradient blow-up and interactions…

The Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma=0.5772\dots\!$ is the $K=\mathbb{Q}$ example of an Euler-Kronecker constant $\gamma_K$ of a number field $K.$ In this note we consider the size of the $\gamma_q=\gamma_{K_q}$ for cyclotomic fields…

We offer a proof of a summation formula equivalent to one due to Berndt. Our proof uses the M$\ddot{u}$ntz formula and the Poisson summation formula. By utilizing known properties of Mellin inversion, we give an example from a discontinuous…
