We introduce a notion of generalized modular functors with Hilbert spaces of infinite dimension in general, and show that a generalized modular functor with data of conformal dimensions determines uniquely wave functions as its flat…
The generalized H\'enon-Heiles Hamiltonian $H=1/2(P_X^2+P_Y^2+c_1X^2+c_2Y^2)+aXY^2-bX^3/3$ with an additional nonpolynomial term $\mu Y^{-2}$ is known to be Liouville integrable for three sets of values of $(b/a,c_1,c_2)$. It has been…
We say that two arithmetic functions f and g form a Mobius pair if f(n) = \sum_{d \mid n} g(d) for all natural numbers n. In that case, g can be expressed in terms of f by the familiar Mobius inversion formula of elementary number theory.…
Let $\lambda(n)$ denote the Fourier coefficients of a fixed modular form and $h(n)$ a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function. In this paper, we determine the order of magnitude of \[ \E|\sum_{n \leq x} h(n)\lambda(n)|^{2q}…
For a fixed SL(3, Z) Maass form g, we consider the family of L-functions L(g \times u_j, s) where u_j runs over the family of Hecke-Maass cusp forms on SL(2,Z). We obtain an estimate for the second moment of this family of L-functions at…
Any function F : {0,...,N-1} -> {-1,1} such that F(x) can be computed from the binary digits of x using a bounded depth circuit is orthogonal to the Mobius function mu in the sense that E_{0 <= x <= N-1} mu(x)F(x) = o(1). The proof combines…
Highly oscillatory integrals, such as those involving Bessel functions, are best evaluated analytically as much as possible, as numerical errors can be difficult to control. We investigate indefinite integrals involving monomials in $x$…
A permutation \tau contains another permutation \sigma as a pattern if \tau has a subsequence whose elements are in the same order with respect to size as the elements in \sigma. This defines a partial order on the set of all permutations,…
For dimensions $n \geq 3$, we classify singular solutions to the generalized Liouville equation $(-\Delta)^{n/2} u = e^{nu}$ on $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus \{0\}$ with the finite integral condition $\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} e^{nu} < \infty$ in terms…
We give exposition of a Liouville theorem established in \cite{Li3} which is a novel extension of the classical Liouville theorem for harmonic functions. To illustrate some ideas of the proof of the Liouville theorem, we present a new proof…
Using sieves and elementary manipulations, we show that the signs of partial sums of the Liouville function over divisors are in a strong sense equally distributed.
Let $\lambda(n)$ be the Liouville function. We study the distribution of \[ \frac{1}{x^{1/2}}\sum_{x\leq n\leq 2x}\lambda(f(n)) \] over random polynomials $f$ of fixed degree $d$ and coefficients bounded in magnitude by $H$. In particular…
We show a non-vanishing result for the averages of L-functions associated with the orthogonal basis of the space of cusp forms of vector-valued modular forms on the full group. We also show the existence of at least one basis element whose…
This is the second of two coupled papers estimating the mean values of multiplicative functions, of unknown support, on arithmetic progressions with large differences. Applications are made to the study of primes in arithmetic progression…
Identities involving Mobius function values (u(j),u(k)) are used to generate a Riemann Hypothesis equivalent.
Let $L$ be a solvable Lie algebra of dimension less than or equal to 4 over finite fields. We compute and record, in explicit symbolic form, the zeta functions enumerating subalgebras or ideals of $L$, and study their properties. We also…
In this article, we study the summatory function \begin{equation*} W(x)=\sum_{n\leq x}(-2)^{\Omega(n)}, \end{equation*} where $\Omega(n)$ counts the number of prime factors of $n$, with multiplicity. We prove $W(x)=O(x)$, and in particular,…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and the Generalized Ramanujan Conjecture, we determine the order of the $2(k_1,\dots,k_r)$th moment of a product of distinct irreducible $L$-functions on the critical line. As a consequence, we…
In this paper, we first establish decay estimates for the fractional and higher-order fractional H\'enon-Lane-Emden systems by using a nonlocal average and integral estimates, which deduce a result of non-existence. Next, we apply the…
