The results of a series of theoretical studies are reported, examining the convergence rate for different approximate representations of $\alpha$-stable distributions. Although they play a key role in modelling random processes with jumps…
Fix $d \ge 3$. We show the existence of a constant $c>0$ such that any graph of diameter at most $d$ has average distance at most $d-c \frac{d^{3/2}}{\sqrt n}$, where $n$ is the number of vertices. Moreover, we exhibit graphs certifying…
Let $G$ be a dense graph with good expansion properties and not too close to being bipartite. Let $\boldsymbol d$ be a graphical degree sequence. Under very weak conditions, we find the number of subgraphs of $G$ with degree sequence…
We establish the asymptotic behaviour of $\mu(G(n,p))$, the number of unlabelled induced subgraphs in the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$, for almost the entire range of the probability parameter $p=p(n)\in[0,1]$. In particular, we show that…
Given an elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ and non-zero integer $r$, the Lang--Trotter conjecture predicts a striking asymptotic formula for the number of good primes $p\leqslant x$, denoted by $\pi_{E,r}(x)$, such that the Frobenius…
Let $P(n)$ be the number of polyominoes of $n$ cells and $\lambda$ be Klarner's constant, that is, $\lambda=\lim_{n\to\infty} \sqrt[n]{P(n)}$. We show that there exist some positive numbers $A,T$, so that for every $n$ \[ P(n) \ge…
We study the intersection of two independent renewal processes, $\rho=\tau\cap\sigma$. Assuming that $\mathbf{P}(\tau_1 = n ) = \varphi(n)\, n^{-(1+\alpha)}$ and $\mathbf{P}(\sigma_1 = n ) = \tilde\varphi(n)\, n^{-(1+ \tilde\alpha)} $ for…
Given a partition $\{E_0,\ldots,E_n\}$ of the set of primes and a vector $\mathbf{k} \in \mathbb{N}_0^{n+1}$, we compute an asymptotic formula for the quantity $|\{m \leq x: \omega_{E_j}(m) = k_j \ \forall \ 0 \leq j \leq n\}|$ uniformly in…
We obtain asymptotics with a power saving error term for $\int_0^1|\sum_{n\le X} d(n)e(n\alpha)|^sd\alpha$ for $s < 2$, where $d(n) = \sum_{d | n} 1$ is the divisor function. We also obtain such asymptotics for $\int_0^1|\sum_{n\le…
We prove three theorems about the asymptotic behavior of solutions $u$ to the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation at boundary points with tangent cones. First, under very mild hypotheses, we show that the doubling index…
The Landau-Selberg-Delange method provides an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a multiplicative function whose average value on primes is a fixed complex number $v$. The shape of this asymptotic implies that $f$ can get very small…
Kummer's conjecture states that the relative class number of the $p$-th cyclotomic field follows a strict asymptotic law. Granville has shown it unlikely to be true -- it cannot be true if we assume the truth of two other widely believed…
For a polynomial $g(x)$ of deg $k \geq 2$ with integer coefficients and positive integer leading coefficient, we prove an upper bound for the least prime $p$ such that $g(p)$ is in non-homogeneous Beatty sequence $\lbrace \lfloor \alpha…
Let $F$ be a graph. We say that a hypergraph $H$ is a {\it Berge}-$F$ if there is a bijection $f : E(F) \rightarrow E(H )$ such that $e \subseteq f(e)$ for every $e \in E(F)$. Note that Berge-$F$ actually denotes a class of hypergraphs. The…
For a function g(w) analytic and univalent in {w:1<|w|<\infty} with a simple pole at \infty and a continuous extension to {w:|w|\geq 1}, we consider the Faber polynomials F_n(z), n=0,1,2,..., associated to g(w) via their generating function…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over $\mathbb{Q}$ of dimension $g$ such that the image of its associated absolute Galois representation $\rho_A$ is open in $\operatorname{GSp}_{2g}(\hat{\mathbb{Z}})$. We investigate the arithmetic of the…
Fix an irrational number $\alpha$. Let $X_1,X_2,\cdots$ be independent, identically distributed, integer-valued random variables with characteristic function $\varphi$, and let $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i$ be the partial sums. Consider the random…
Orthogonality is a fundamental theme in representation theory and Fourier analysis. An orthogonality relation for characters of finite abelian groups (now recognized as an orthogonality relation on GL(1)) was used by Dirichlet to prove…
Given an arithmetic function $g(n)$ write $M_g(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} g(n)$. We extend and strengthen the results of a fundamental paper of Hal\'{a}sz in several ways by proving upper bounds for the ratio of $\frac{|M_g(x)|}{M_{|g|}(x)}$,…
We prove uniform versions of two classical results in analytic number theory. The first is an asymptotic for the number of points of a complete lattice $\Lambda \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ inside the $d$-sphere of radius $R$. In contrast to…
