Let $L$ be a number field. For a given prime $p$ we define integers $\alpha_{p}^{L}$ and $\beta_{p}^{L}$ with some interesting arithmetic properties. For instance, $\beta_{p}^{L}$ is equal to $1$ whenever $p$ does not ramify in $L$ and…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$, where $q$ is large odd prime power. In this paper, we improve some recent results on the additive energy of the distance set, and on sumsets of the distance set due to Shparlinski (2016).…
In this paper we study the problem of estimating the alpha-, beta- and phi-mixing coefficients between two random variables, that can either assume values in a finite set or the set of real numbers. In either case, explicit closed-form…
Let $\theta >2$ be real and non-integral with integer part $n = \lfloor \theta \rfloor$ and let $ \phi (x)$ be a generalised polynomial with leading term $x^\theta.$ We establish a mean value estimate for the exponential sum…
Let $p$ a large enough prime number. When $A$ is a subset of $\mathbb{F}_p\smallsetminus\{0\}$ of cardinality $|A|> (p+1)/3$, then an application of Cauchy-Davenport Theorem gives $\mathbb{F}_p\smallsetminus\{0\}\subset A(A+A)$. In this…
It was asked by E. Szemer\'edi if, for a finite set $A\subset\mathbb{Z}$, one can improve estimates for $\max\{|A+A|,|A\cdot A|\}$, under the constraint that all integers involved have a bounded number of prime factors -- that is, each…
We study the solubility of the binary additive equation $[m^c] + [p^c] = n$, where $m$ is an integer, $p$ is a prime number, and $c$ is a fixed real number in the range $1 < c < 3/2$.
For an irrational $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$, we consider additive problems with the set of primes satisfying $\lVert\alpha p\rVert\leq \frac{1}{p^\tau}$ for some fixed $\tau>0$. In particular, we show that there exist infinitely many…
We prove that there are infinitely many integers, which can represent as sum of a square-free integer and a prime $p$ with $||\alpha p+\beta||<p^{-1/10}$, where $\alpha$ is irrational.
In a recent paper \cite{Gl} A. Glibichuk proved that if $A,B$ are subsets of an arbitrary finite filed $\F_q$, such that $|A||B|>q$, then $16AB = \F_q$. We improve this to $10AB = \F_q.$
We report a leading-order (LO) calculation of $^7\mathrm{Be}(p,\gamma)^8\mathrm{B}$ in a low-energy effective field theory. $^8\mathrm{B}$ is treated as a shallow proton$+^7\mathrm{Be}$ core and proton$+^7\mathrm{Be}^{*}$ (core excitation)…
We provide estimates for sums of the form \[\left|\sum_{a\in A}\sum_{b\in B}\sum_{c\in C}\chi(a+b+c)\right|\] and \[\left|\sum_{a\in A}\sum_{b\in B}\sum_{c\in C}\sum_{d\in D}\chi(a+b+cd)\right|\] when $A,B,C,D\subset \mathbb F_p$, the field…
Fix $\delta\in(0,1]$, $\sigma_0\in[0,1)$ and a real-valued function $\varepsilon(x)$ for which $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\varepsilon(x)\le 0$. For every set of primes ${\mathcal P}$ whose counting function $\pi_{\mathcal P}(x)$ satisfies an…
In this paper, we consider estimators for an additive functional of $\phi$, which is defined as $\theta(P;\phi)=\sum_{i=1}^k\phi(p_i)$, from $n$ i.i.d. random samples drawn from a discrete distribution $P=(p_1,...,p_k)$ with alphabet size…
In this dissertation, we analytically study the apex field enhancement factor (FEF), $\gamma_a$, by constructing a method which consists in minimizing an error function defined as to measure the deviation of the potential at the boundary,…
Let $F$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{Z})$ and $A(m,n)$ be its normalized Fourier coefficients. Let $V$ be a smooth function, compactly supported on $[1,2]$ and satisfying $V(y)^{j} \ll_j y^{-j}$ for any $j \in…
The $He^+$ ion on a plane subject to a constant magnetic field $B$ perpendicular to the plane is considered taking into account the finite nuclear mass. Factorization of eigenfunctions permits to reduce the four-dimensional problem to…
In the paper we obtain some new upper bounds for exponential sums over multiplicative subgroups G of F^*_p having sizes in the range [p^{c_1}, p^{c_2}], where c_1,c_2 are some absolute constants close to 1/2. As an application we prove that…
Let $\left(a_{n}\right)_{n}$ be a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers, denote by $A_{N}=\left\{ a_{n}:\,n\leq N\right\} $ its truncations, and let $\alpha\in\left[0,1\right]$. We prove that if the additive energy…
We establish that, for almost all natural numbers $N$, there is a sum of two positive integral cubes lying in the interval $[N-N^{7/18+\epsilon},N]$. Here, the exponent $7/18$ lies half way between the trivial exponent $4/9$ stemming from…
