In this paper we investigate a high dimensional version of Selberg's minorant problem for the indicator function of an interval. In particular, we study the corresponding problem of minorizing the indicator function of the box…

We give a kind of \lq \lq approximate majorant principle\rq \rq \thinspace result for the \lq \lq modified Selberg integral\rq \rq, say $\modSel_f(N,h)$, of essentially bounded $f:\N \rightarrow \R$ (i.e., bounded by arbitrary small…

We solve an extremal problem that arises in the study of the refractive indices of passive metamaterials. The problem concerns Hermitian functions in $H^2$ of the upper half-plane, i.e., $H^2$ functions satisfying $f(-x)=\bar{f(x)}$. An…

We determine extremal entire functions for the problem of majorizing, minorizing, and approximating the Gaussian function $e^{-\pi\lambda x^2}$ by entire functions of exponential type. This leads to the solution of analogous extremal…

We consider $L$-functions $L_1,\ldots,L_k$ from the Selberg class which have polynomial Euler product and satisfy Selberg's orthonormality condition. We show that on every vertical line $s=\sigma+it$ with $\sigma\in(1/2,1)$, these…

Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we use Beurling-Selberg extremal functions to bound the mean and mean square of the argument of Dirichlet $L$-functions to a large prime modulus $q$. As applications, we give alternative proofs of…

This paper presents the Gaussian subordination framework to generate optimal one-sided approximations to multidimensional real-valued functions by functions of prescribed exponential type. Such extremal problems date back to the works of…

Let $\delta>0$ and $\sigma=\frac{1}{2}+\tfrac{\delta}{\log T}$. We prove that, for any $\alpha>0$ and $V\sim \alpha\log \log T$ as $T\to\infty$, $\frac{1}{T}\text{meas}\big\{t\in [T,2T]: \log|\zeta(\sigma+\rm{i} \tau)|>V\big\}\geq…

We study the arithmetic (real) function f=g*1, with g "essentially bounded" and supported over the integers of [1,Q]. In particular, we obtain non-trivial bounds, through f "correlations", for the "Selberg integral" and the "symmetry…

Following Selberg it is known that uniformly for V << (logloglog T)^{1/2 - \epsilon} the measure of those t \in [T;2T] for which log |\zeta(1/2 + it)| > V*((1/2)loglog T)^{1/2} is approximately T times the probability that a standard…

We find an asymptotic expansion of a multi-dimensional version of Selberg's central limit theorem for $L$-functions on $ \sigma= \frac12 + ( \log T)^{-\theta}$ and $ t \in [ T, 2T]$, where $ 0 < \theta < \frac12 $ is a constant.

We obtain a lower bound on the number of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field which vanish at the central point $s = 1/2$. This is in contrast with the situation over the rational numbers, where a conjecture of…

We consider a bounded open subset $\Omega$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ of class $C^{1,\alpha}$ for some $\alpha\in]0,1[$ and we solve the Neumann problem for the Helmholtz equation both in $\Omega$ and in the exterior of $\Omega$. We look for…

Let $f$ be an arbitrary integrable function on a finite measure space $(X,\Sigma, \nu)$. We characterise the extreme points of the set $\Omega (f)$ of all measurable functions on $(X,\Sigma, \nu)$ majorised by $f$, providing a complete…

We establish generalizations of the Nyman-Beurling and B\'aez-Duarte criteria concerning lack of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions in the semi-plane $\Re(s) >1/p$ for $p\in (1,2]$. We pose and solve a natural extremal problem for Dirichlet…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field, let $\mathbb{X}$ be a subset of a projective space ${\mathbb P}^{s-1}$, over the field $\mathbb{F}_q$, parameterized by rational functions, and let $I(\mathbb{X})$ be the vanishing ideal of…

In this paper we calculate some Generalized Selberg integrals. The answer is expressed in terms of $\Gamma$-functions. Integrals of this type serve as normalization constants or directly via undoing 2-D integrals for determination of…

We show that central zeros of $L$-functions in the Selberg class have a probabilistic interpretation by stating an equivalence condition of the Riemann hypothesis for the $L$-functions in terms of infinitely divisible distributions.

We introduce a Selberg type zeta function of two variables which interpolates several higher Selberg zeta functions. The analytic continuation, the functional equation and the determinant expression of this function via the Laplacian on a…
