We obtain a new bound on the second moment of modified shifted convolutions of the generalized 3-fold divisor function, and show that, for applications, the modified version is sufficient.

We propose an arbitrarily higher (even) order implicit leapfrog scheme for time discretization of a three-field formulation of Maxwell's equations. We use this in conjunction with an arbitrarily higher-order and compatible discretization…

Recently there has been several works estimating the number of $n\times n$ matrices with elements from some finite sets $\mathcal X$ of arithmetic interest and of a given determinant. Typically such results are compared with the trivial…

The classical theorems relating integral binary quadratic forms and ideal classes of quadratic orders have been of tremendous importance in mathematics, and many authors have given extensions of these theorems to rings other than the…

We obtain a new lower bound on the size of value set f(F_p) of a sparse polynomial f in F_p[X] over a finite field of p elements when p is prime. This bound is uniform with respect of the degree and depends on some natural arithmetic…

For a linear algebraic group $G$ over $\mathbf Q$, we consider the period domains $D$ classifying $G$-mixed Hodge structures, and construct the extended period domains $D_{\Sigma}$. In particular, we give toroidal partial compactifications…

This work is motivated by the long-standing open problem of designing asymptotically order-optimal aperiodic polyphase sequence sets with respect to the celebrated Welch bound. Attempts were made by Mow over 30 years ago, but a…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $P$ a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. We obtain both asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of odd-degree irreducible complex representations of $G$ in terms of the size of the abelianization of $P$. To do…

We obtain a new upper bound for binary sums with multiplicative characters over variables belong to some sets, having small additive doubling.

We obtain a polynomial upper bound in the finite-field version of the multidimensional polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for distinct-degree polynomials. That is, if $P_1, ..., P_t$ are nonconstant integer polynomials of distinct degrees and…

We prove generalized Gaffney inequalities and the discrete compactness for finite element differential forms on $s$-regular domains, including general Lipschitz domains. In computational electromagnetism, special cases of these results have…

We consider the size of the nodal set of the solution of the second order parabolic-type equation with Gevrey regular coefficients. We provide an upper bound as a function of time. The dependence agrees with a sharp upper bound when the…

In this paper we give a refinement of the bound of D. A. Burgess for multiplicative character sums modulo a prime number $q$. This continues a series of previous logarithmic improvements, which are mostly due to H. Iwaniec and E. Kowalski.…

The goal of this paper is to give an explicit formula for the l-adic cohomology of period domains over finite fields for arbitrary reductive groups. The result is a generalisation of the computation in math.AG/9907098 which treats the case…

In the first part of this paper, we consider a partially overdetermined mixed boundary value problem in space forms and generalize the main result in \cite{GX} into the case of general domains with partial umbilical boundary in space forms.…

Let $x$ and $n$ be positive integers. We prove a non-trivial lower bound for $x$, dependant only on $\omega_n$, the number of distinct prime factors of $x^n-1$. By considering the divisibility of $\varphi \mid x^n-1$ for $\varphi \mid n$,…

A variational method is discussed, extending the Gaussian effective potential to higher orders. The single variational parameter is replaced by trial unknown two-point functions, with infinite variational parameters to be optimized by the…

All finite element methods, as well as much of the Hilbert-space theory for partial differential equations, rely on variational formulations, that is, problems of the type: find $u\in V$ such that $a(v,u) = l(v)$ for each $v\in L$, where…

In this paper we answer certain questions posed by V.I. Arnold, namely, we study periods of continued fractions for solutions of quadratic equations in the form $x^2+p x=q$ with integer $p$ and $q$, $p^2+q^2\le R^2$. Our results concern the…

For any elements b,c of a number field K, let G(b,c) denote the backwards orbit of b under the map f_c: C-->C given by f_c(x)=x^2+c. We prove an upper bound on the number of elements of G(b,c) whose degree over K is at most some constant B.…
