It is well known that over an infinite field the ring of symmetric functions in a finite number of variables is isomorphic to the one of polynomial functions on matrices that are invariants by the action of conjugation by general linear…

Using the sieve for Frobenius, we show that, in a certain sense, the roots of the L-functions of "most" algebraic curves over finite fields do not satisfy any non-trivial (linear or multiplicative) rational dependency relations. This can be…

Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in…

We investigate properties of a multivariate function $E(m_1,m_2,...,m_r)$, called {\it orbicyclic}, that arises in enumerative combinatorics in counting non-isomorphic maps on orientable surfaces. $E(m_1,m_2,...,m_r)$ proves to be…

A holomorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ belongs to the class $\mathcal{U}_A(\mathbb{D})$ of Abel universal functions if the family $\{f_r: 0\leq r<1\}$ of its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)$ is dense in the space of continuous…

Let $\mu(n)$ be the M\"{o}bius function and $e(\alpha)=e^{2\pi i\alpha}$. In this paper, we study upper bounds of the classical sum $$S(x,\alpha):=\sum_{1\leq n\leq x}\mu(n)e(\alpha n).$$ We can improve some classical results of Baker and…

For a power series which converges in some neighborhood of the origin in the complex plane, it turns out that the zeros of its partial sums---its sections---often behave in a controlled manner, producing intricate patterns as they converge…

We prove Veech's conjecture on the equivalence of Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius orthogonality with a Kolmogorov type property of Furstenberg systems of the M\''obius function. This yields a combinatorial condition on the M\"obius function…

We consider a wide class of summatory functions F{f;N,p^m}=\sum_{k\leq N}f(p^m k), m\in \mathbb Z_+\cup {0}, associated with the multiplicative arithmetic functions f of a scaled variable k\in \mathbb Z_+, where p is a prime number.…

We prove sharp $L^3$ bounds for a variable coefficient generalization of the Wolff circular maximal function $M^\delta f$. For each fixed radius $r$, $M^\delta f(r)$ is the maximal average of $f$ over the $\delta$--neighborhood of a circle…

Let $F$ be a finite field of odd cardinality $q$, $A=F[T]$ the polynomial ring over $F$, $k=F(T)$ the rational function field over $F$ and $\mathcal{H}$ the set of square-free monic polynomials in $A$ of degree odd. If $D\in\mathcal{H}$, we…

We obtain uniform lower bounds, true for all automorphic L-functions L(s) associated to cuspidal representations of GL(m,A) where A denotes the adeles of the rationals Q, of the integral on the vertical line (Re(s)=1/2) of the absolute…

The article is devoted to the investigation of smoothness of functions $f(x_1,...,x_m)$ of variables $x_1,...,x_m$ in infinite fields with non-trivial multiplicative ultra-norms, where $m\ge 2$. Theorems about classes of smoothness $C^n$ or…

The main result of this paper is a proof of the continuity of a family of integral functionals defined on the space of functions of bounded variation with respect to a topology under which smooth functions are dense. These functionals occur…

We prove the generalized Obata theorem on foliations. Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a foliation F of codimension $q>1$ and a bundle-like metric. Then $(M, F)$ is transversally isometric to the q-sphere of radius 1/c in…

We embed the somewhat unusual multiplicative function, which was serendipitously discovered in 2010 during a study of mutually unbiased bases in the Hilbert space of quantum physics, into two families of multiplicative functions that we…

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

If F is a global function field of characteristic p>3, we employ Tate's theory of analytic uniformization to give an alternative proof of a theorem of Igusa describing the image of the natural Galois representation on torsion points of…

Consider a sequence of closed, orientable surfaces of fixed genus $g$ in a Riemannian manifold $M$ with uniform upper bounds on mean curvature and area. We show that on passing to a subsequence and choosing appropriate parametrisations, the…

We consider the Gelfand problem with rapidly growing nonlinearities in the two-dimensional bounded strictly convex domains. In this paper, we prove the uniformly boundedness of finite Morse index solutions. As a result, we show that there…
