We prove a generalization of the fact that periodic functions converge weakly to the mean value as the oscillation increases. Some convergence questions connected to locally periodic nonlinear boundary value problems are also considered.

We prove that the $k$-th positive integer moment of partial sums of Steinhaus random multiplicative functions over the interval $(x, x+H]$ matches the corresponding Gaussian moment, as long as $H\ll x/(\log x)^{2k^2+2+o(1)}$ and $H$ tends…

We study a weighted divisor function $\mathop{{\sum}'}\limits_{mn\leq x}\cos(2\pi m\theta_1)\sin(2\pi n\theta_2)$, where $\theta_i (0<\theta_i<1)$ is a rational number. By connecting it with the divisor problem with congruence conditions,…

We use short divisor sums to approximate prime tuples and moments for primes in short intervals. By connecting these results to classical moment problems we are able to prove that a positive proportion of consecutive primes are within a…

We show how a metric space induces a linear functional (a "mean") on real-valued functions with domains in that metric space. This immediately induces a "relative" measure on a collection of subsets of the underlying set.

On the set $\mathcal M$ of mean functions the symmetric mean of $M$ with respect to mean $M_0$ can be defined in several ways. The first one is related to the group structure on $\mathcal M$ and the second one is defined trough Gauss'…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of sums of functions of the increments of a given semimartingale, taken along a regular grid whose mesh goes to 0. The function of the $i$th increment may depend on the current time, and also…

We study the shifted convolution sum of the divisor function and some other arithmetic functions.

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…

Let $f: \mathbb{N}^2 \mapsto \mathbb{C}$ be an arithmetic function of two variables. We study the existence of the limit: \[\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{x^2 (\log x)^{k-1}} \sum_{n_1 , n_2 \le x} f (n_1, n_2) \] where $k$ is a…

In [arXiv:2107.01437], the authors studied the mean-square of certain sums of the divisor function $d_k(f)$ over the function field $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ in the limit as $q \to \infty$ and related these sums to integrals over the ensemble of…
