We study Liouville theorems for the following polyharmonic H\'{e}non-Lane-Emden system \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{\begin{array}{lcl} (-\Delta)^m u&=& |x|^{a}v^p \ \ \text{in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^n,\\ (-\Delta)^m v&=& |x|^{b}u^q \ \ \text{in}\ \…

A conjecture of Bombieri states that the coefficients of a normalized univalent function $f$ should satisfy $$ \liminf_{f\to K} \frac{n-{\rm Re\,}a_n}{m-{\rm Re\,}a_m} = \min_{t\in{\mathbb R}} \, \frac{n\sin t -\sin(nt)}{m\sin t -\sin(mt)},…

Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first give a brief survey of Ap\'ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain $L$-functions. Then, we establish two…

In this paper, we obtain a new class of functions, which is developed via the Hermite--Hadamard inequality for convex functions. The well-known one-one correspondence between the class of operator monotone functions and operator connections…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the shifted convolution of the divisor functions $d_3(n)$ and $d(n)$, which is uniform in the shift parameter and which has a power-saving error term. The method is also applied to give analogous estimates…

Suppose $M$ and $N$ are positive integers and let $k = \gcd(M, N)$, $m = M/k$, and $n=N/k$. We define a symmetric function $L_{M,N}$ as a weighted sum over certain tuples of lattice paths. We show that $L_{M,N}$ satisfies a generalization…

For a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of type $A_n,B_n,C_n$ or $D_n$, we give a characterization of the set of dominant integral weights $\lambda$ such that for any rational point $\mu$ in the fundamental Weyl chamber, $2\lambda-\mu$ is a…

We show that the expected asymptotic for the sums $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} \Lambda(n) \Lambda(n+h)$, $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} d_k(n) d_l(n+h)$, and $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} \Lambda(n) d_k(n+h)$ hold for almost all $h \in [-H,H]$, provided that…

To a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ (with $S$ finite) and a weight function $L : W \to \NM$ is associated a partition of $W$ into Kazhdan-Lusztig (left, right or two-sided) $L$-cells. Let $S^\circ = \{s \in S | L(s)=0\}$, $S^+=\{s \in S | L(s) >…

Inspired by Lehmer's conjecture on the nonvanishing of the Ramanujan $\tau$-function, one may ask whether an odd integer $\alpha$ can be equal to $\tau(n)$ or any coefficient of a newform $f(z)$. Balakrishnan, Craig, Ono, and Tsai used the…

The primary objective of this paper is to employ methods from analytic number theory to investigate the mean value properties of a composite function involving the Dirichlet divisor function and a generalized minimal power function.…

A natural measure of smoothness of a Boolean function is its sensitivity (the largest number of Hamming neighbors of a point which differ from it in function value). The structure of smooth or equivalently low-sensitivity functions is still…

For any real number $s$, let $\sigma_s$ be the generalized divisor function, i.e., the arithmetic function defined by $\sigma_s(n) := \sum_{d \, \mid \, n} d^s$, for all positive integers $n$. We prove that for any $r > 1$ the topological…

In 2003, Zhao discovered a curious congruence involving harmonic series and Bernoulli numbers: for any odd prime $p$, $$\sum_{\substack{i,j,k\ge 1\\\gcd(ijk,p)=1\\i+j+k=p}}\frac{1}{ijk}\equiv -2B_{p-3} \pmod{p},$$ where $B_n$ is the $n$-th…

For each pair of coprime integers $a$ and $b$ we have a rational $q$-Catalan number $\operatorname{Cat}(a,b)_q=\binom{a+b}{a}_q/[a+b]_q$. It is known that this is a polynomial in $q$ with nonnegative integer coefficients, but the nature of…

We show that if $f$ is an integer-valued function with spectral norm at most $M$ then there are subspaces $V_1,\dots,V_L$ and signs $\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_L \in \{-1,1\}$ such that $f=\sigma_1 1_{V_1} + \dots + \sigma_L 1_{V_L}$ where $L <…

We prove that entire bounded monotone solutions to a certain class of fully nonlinear equations in 2D are one-dimensional. Our result also gives a new (non-variational) proof of the well known De Giorgi's conjecture.

Guo-Wang [Calc.Var.Partial Differential Equations,59(2020)] conjectured that for $1<q<\frac{n}{n-2}$ and $0<\lambda\leq \frac{1}{q-1}$, the positive solution $u\in C^{\infty}(\bar B)$ to the equation \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \Delta u=0…

We prove that for certain positive operators $T$, such as the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function and fractional integrals, there is a constant $D>1$, depending only on the dimension $n$, such that the two weight norm inequality…

In 1971 Cusick proved that every real number $x\in[0,1]$ can be expressed as a sum of two continued fractions with no partial quotients equal to $1$. In other words, if we define a set $$ S(k):= \{ x\in[0,1] : a_n(x) \geq k \text{ for all }…
