We show that the classical Brezis-Nirenberg problem $$\Delta u + |u|^{4 \over N-2} u + \varepsilon u = 0 ,\quad {\mbox {in}} \quad \Omega, \quad u= 0 , \quad {\mbox {on}} \quad \partial \Omega$$ admits nodal solutions clustering around a…
For $\Gamma={\hbox{PSL}_2( {\mathbb Z})}$ the hyperbolic circle problem aims to estimate the number of elements of the orbit $\Gamma z$ inside the hyperbolic disc centered at $z$ with radius $\cosh^{-1}(X/2)$. We show that, by averaging…
Some results and conjectures on $Z_2(s) = \int_1^\infty |\zeta(1/2+ix)|^4x^{-s}dx (\Re s > 1)$ are presented. Consequences of these conjectures regarding the eighth moment of $|\zeta(1/2+it)$ and the error term in the fourth moment of…
For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real $u$, let $\Delta(n,u):=|\{d:d\mid n,\,{\rm e}^u<d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1}\}|$. The Erd\H{o}s--Hooley Delta-function is then defined by $\Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}}\Delta(n,u).$ We improve the current…
The parabolic problem $u_t-\Delta u=\frac{\lambda f(x)}{(1-u)^2}+P$ on a bounded domain $\Omega$ of $R^n$ with Dirichlet boundary condition models the microelectromechanical systems(MEMS) device with an external pressure term. In this…
Consider nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with small nonlinearities \[\frac{d}{dt}u+i(-\triangle u+V(x)u)=\epsilon \mathcal{P}(\triangle u,u,x),\quad x\in \mathbb{T}^d.\eqno{(*)}\] Let $\{\zeta_1(x),\zeta_2(x),\dots\}$ be the $L_2$-basis…
We show for all $1/2 \le \sigma \le 1$ and $t\ge 3$ that $\zeta(\sigma+it)| \le 76.2 t^{4.45 (1-\sigma)^{3/2}}$, where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta function. This significantly improves the previous bounds, where $4.45$ is replaced by…
In the present paper, we show that under the Riemann hypothesis, and for fixed $h, \epsilon > 0$, the supremum of the real and the imaginary parts of $\log \zeta (1/2 + it)$ for $t \in [UT -h, UT + h]$ are in the interval $[(1-\epsilon)…
When $P$ is the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta )^a$, $0<a<1$, or a pseudodifferential generalization thereof, the Dirichlet problem for the associated heat equation over a smooth set $\Omega \subset{\Bbb R}^n$:…
We find an asymptotic expansion of a multi-dimensional version of Selberg's central limit theorem for $L$-functions on $ \sigma= \frac12 + ( \log T)^{-\theta}$ and $ t \in [ T, 2T]$, where $ 0 < \theta < \frac12 $ is a constant.
We consider fluctuations of error terms $\Delta(x)$ appearing in the asymptotic formula for a summatory function of coefficients of the Dirichlet series. These are quantified via $\Omega$ and $\Omega_{\pm}$ estimates. We obtain $\Omega$…
The Dirichlet eta function can be divided into $n$-th partial sum $\eta_{n}(s)$ and remainder term $R_{n}(s)$. We focus on the remainder term which can be approximated by the expression for $n$. And then, to increase reliability, we make…
In this paper we are concerned with a general singular Dirichlet boundary value problem whose model is the following $$ \begin{cases} -\Delta u = \frac{\mu}{u^{\gamma}} & \text{in}\ \Omega, u=0 &\text{on}\ \partial\Omega, u>0 &\text{on}\…
We assume the Riemann hypothesis to improve upon the rate of convergence of $(\log\log\log T)^2/\sqrt{\log\log T}$ in Selberg's central limit theorem for $\log|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ given by the author. We achieve a rate of convergence of…
For Dirichlet series roughly of the type $Z(s, w) = sum_d L(s, chi_d) d^{-w}$ the subconvexity bound $Z(s, w) \ll (sw(s+w))^{1/6+\varepsilon}$ is proved on the critical lines $\Re s = \Re w = 1/2$. The convexity bound would replace 1/6 with…
We give a sharpened form of Siegel Lemma's w. r. t. the maximum norm. This implies a new lower bound on the greatest element of a sum-distinct set of positive integers (Erd\"os-Moser problem). The main tools are Minkowski's theorem on…
Let $R(n) = \sum_{a+b=n} \Lambda(a)\Lambda(b)$, where $\Lambda(\cdot)$ is the von Mangoldt function. The function $R(n)$ is often studied in connection with Goldbach's conjecture. On the Riemann hypothesis (RH) it is known that $\sum_{n\leq…
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we obtain asymptotic formulas for $\sum_{0<\gamma<T}\zeta(\rho+\delta)\zeta(1-\rho+\overline{\delta})$ in the region $-\frac{a}{\log T} \leq \Re \delta \leq \frac{1}{2}+\frac{a}{\log T}$, $|\Im \delta|\ll…
Let $t$ be random and uniformly distributed in the interval $[T,2T]$, and consider the quantity $N(t+1/\log T) - N(t)$, a count of zeros of the Riemann zeta function in a box of height $1/\log T$. Conditioned on the Riemann hypothesis, we…
We report the finding of the new upper bound on the lowest positive integer $x$ for which the Mertens conjecture \begin{equation*} \left| \sum_{1 \leq n \leq x} \mu(n) \right| < \sqrt{x} \end{equation*} fails to hold: $x < \exp(1.017 \times…
