In this paper we study the local zero behavior of orthogonal polynomials around an algebraic singularity, that is, when the measure of orthogonality is supported on $ [-1,1] $ and behaves like $ h(x)|x - x_0|^\lambda dx $ for some $ x_0 \in…

The lecture, given at the ICM 2014 in Seoul, explores several problems of analytic number theory in the context of function fields over a finite field, where they can be approached by methods different than those of traditional analytic…

In this article, we consider polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_{n_1}x^{n_1}+a_{n_2}x^{n_2}+\dots+a_{n_r}x^{n_r}\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|\ge |a_{n_1}|+\dots+|a_{n_r}|,$ $|a_0|$ is a prime power and $|a_0|\nmid |a_{n_1}a_{n_r}|$. We…

For every non-hyper-FC-central countable amenable group and every $k\geq 2$, we provide a sequence of symmetric, fully supported probability measures such that their convex combination is non-Liouville (that is it admits a non-constant…

In 2007, the first author gave an alternative proof of the refined alternating sign matrix theorem by introducing a linear equation system that determines the refined ASM numbers uniquely. Computer experiments suggest that the numbers…

We study the existence of at least one conformal metric of prescribed Gaussian curvature on a closed surface $\Sigma$ admitting conical singularities of orders $\alpha_i$'s at points $p_i$'s. In particular, we are concerned with the case…

In this paper, we consider $\alpha$-harmonic functions in the half space $\mathbb{R}^n_+$: \begin{equation} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} u(x)=0,~u(x)>0, & x\in\mathbb{R}^n_+, \\ u(x)\equiv 0, & x\notin \mathbb{R}^{n}_{+}.…

In the present note we obtain new results on two conjectures by Csordas et al. regarding the interlacing property of zeros of special polynomials. These polynomials came from the Jacobi tau methods for the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue…

Ballantine--Beck--Feigon--Maurischat introduced the subsum polynomial \[ \operatorname{sp}(\lambda,x):=\prod_i (1+x^{\lambda_i}) \] attached to an integer partition $\lambda$, and studied rational functions obtained by summing reciprocals…

In this paper, we are concerned with a Liouville-type result of the nonlinear integral equation \begin{equation*} u(x)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}\frac{u(1-|u|^{2})}{|x-y|^{n-\alpha}}dy, \end{equation*} where $u: \mathbb{R}^{n} \to…

This work is devoted to the study of a Liouville comparison principle for entire weak solutions of quasilinear differential inequalities of the form $A(u) + |u|^{q-1}u \leq A(v) + |v|^{q-1}v$ on ${\Bbb R}^n$, where $n\geq 1$, $q$ is…

Let $f(n)$ be a random completely multiplicative function such that $f(p) = \pm 1$ with probabilities $1/2$ independently at each prime. We study the conditional probability, given that $f(p) = 1$ for all $p < y$, that all partial sums of…

In [2], while studying a relevant class of polyominoes that tile the plane by translation, i.e., double square polyominoes, the authors found that their boundary words, encoded by the Freeman chain coding on a four letters alphabet, have…

We establish an invertibility criterion for free polynomials and free functions evaluated on some tuples of matrices. We show that if the derivative is nonsingular on some domain closed with respect to direct sums and similarity, the…

We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface with exponent $\frac{2}{3}+\varepsilon$, improving upon the long-standing exponent $\frac{25}{36}+\varepsilon$ of Soundararajan-Young (2013). This was previously known…

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the relationship between prime numbers and sums of Fibonacci numbers. One of our main results says that for every sufficiently large integer $k$ there exists a prime number that can be represented as…

We examine the maximal number of zeros a polynomial of degree at most n with constrained coefficients may have at 1. Our results are essentially sharp and extend earlier results of this variety. An interesting connection to certain…

In this paper we prove a Liouville theorem for the Chern--Simons--Schr{\"o}dinger equation. This result is consistent with the soliton resolution conjecture for initial data that does not lie in a weighted space. See [KKO22] for the soliton…

In this paper, we investigate Liouville theorems for solutions to the anisotropic $p$-Laplace equation $$-\Delta_p^H u=-\operatorname{div}(a(\nabla u))=f(u),\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n,$$ where the semilinear term $f$ may be positive,…
