The paper deals with establishing bounds for Eisenstein series on congruence quotients of the upper half plane, with control of both the spectral parameter and the level. The key observation in this work is that we exploit better the…

We prove a new upper bound for the number of smooth values of a polynomial with integer coefficients. This improves Timofeev's previous result unless the polynomial is a product of linear polynomials with integer coefficients. As an…

This work presents an upper-bound to value that the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence can reach for a class of probability distributions called quantum distributions (QD). The aim is to find a distribution $U$ which maximizes the KL…

We prove the remaining part of the conjecture by Denef and Sperber [Denef, J. and Sperber, S., \textit{Exponential sums mod $p^n$ and {N}ewton polyhedra}, Bull. Belg. Math. Soc., {\bf{suppl.}} (2001) 55-63] on nondegenerate local…

We establish a new spectral inequality for the quantified estimation of the $H^s$-norm, $s\ge 0$ of a finite linear combination of eigenfunctions in a domain in terms of its $H^s$-norm in a strictly open subset of the whole domain. The…

In this paper we present some new upper bounds of the Cusa-Huygens and the Huygens approximations. Bounds are obtained in the forms of some polynomial and some rational functions.

We suggest a new approach to Artin's constant that leads to its representation as an infinite sum divided by another infinite sum. The same approach works well for Stephens' constant and higher rank Artin's constants. The main results are…

We provide new upper bounds for sums of certain arithmetic functions in many variables at polynomial arguments and, exploiting recent progress on the mean-value of the Erd\H os-Hooley $\Delta$-function, we derive lower bounds for the…

For $f$ a Rademacher or Steinhaus random multiplicative function, we prove that $$ \max_{\theta \in [0,1]} \frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \Bigl| \sum_{n \leq N} f(n) \mathrm{e} (n \theta) \Bigr| \gg \sqrt{\log N} ,$$ asymptotically almost surely as $N…

We develop a method for calculating Riemann sums using Fourier analysis.

We compute the Hilbert coefficients of a graded module with pure resolution and discuss lower and upper bounds for these coefficients for arbitrary graded modules.

This paper derives sufficient conditions for superconvergence of sums of bounded free random variables and provides an estimate for the rate of superconvergence.

We investigate from a multifractal analysis point of view the increasing rate of the sums of partial quotients $S\_n(x)=\sum\_{j=1}^n a\_j(x)$, where $x=[a\_1(x), a\_2(x), \cdots ]$ is the continued fraction expansion of an irrational $x\in…

We describe a new method to bound certain higher-dimensional exponential sums which are associated with tori in symplectic groups over finite fields. Our method is based on the self-reducibility property of the Weil representation. As a…

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…

The purpose of this paper is to revisit the proof of the Gearhardt-Pr\"uss-Hwang-Greiner theorem for a semigroup $S(t)$, following the general idea of the proofs that we have seen in the literature and to get an explicit estimate on $\Vert…

We shall make a slight improvement to a result of p-adic logarithms which gives a nontrivial upper bound for the exponent of p dividing the Fermat quotient x^{p-1}-1.

Several asymptotic expansions and formulas for cubic exponential sums are derived. The expansions are most useful when the cubic coefficient is in a restricted range. This generalizes previous results in the quadratic case and helps to…

We obtain new estimates on the maximal operator applied to the Weyl sums. We also consider the quadratic case (that is, Gauss sums) in more details. In wide ranges of parameters our estimates are optimal and match lower bounds. Our approach…

We give new upper and lower bounds on the concavity of quantum entropy. Comparisons are given with other results in the literature.
