Given a proper convex lower semicontinuous function defined on a Hilbert space and whose solution set is supposed nonempty. For attaining a global minimizer when this convex function is continuously differentiable, we approach it by a…

We prove an invariance principle (functional central limit theorem) for a vector-valued additive functional of a Markov chain for almost every starting point with respect to an ergodic equilibrium distribution. The hypothesis is a moment…

We prove new mean value theorems for primes in arithmetic progressions to moduli larger than $x^{1/2}$, extending the Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem to moduli of size $x^{1/2+\delta}$ which have conveniently sized divisors. The main feature of…

We investigate the computation of the gradient of the value function in parametric convex optimization problems. We derive general expression for the gradient of the value function in terms of the cost function, constraints and Lagrange…

We study the rate of convergence to a normal random variable of the real and imaginary parts of Tr(AU), where U is an N x N random unitary matrix and A is a deterministic complex matrix. We show that the rate of convergence is O(N^{-2 +…

This paper presents a detailed theoretical analysis of the three stochastic approximation proximal gradient algorithms proposed in our companion paper [49] to set regularization parameters by marginal maximum likelihood estimation. We prove…

In this note by using elementary considerations, we settle Fr\"oberg's conjecture for a large number of cases, when all generators of ideals have the same degree.

We prove that for any constant $K\geq1$, the value functions for time homogeneous stochastic differential games in the whole space can be approximated up to a constant over $K$ by value functions whose second-order derivatives are bounded…

Assuming that a threshold Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process is observed at discrete time instants, we propose generalized moment estimators to estimate the parameters. Our theoretical basis is the celebrated ergodic theorem. To use this theorem we…

In this paper, if prime $p\equiv 3\pmod 4$ is sufficiently large then we prove an upper bound on the number of occurences of any arbitrary pattern of quadratic residues and nonresidues of length $k$ as $k$ tends to $\lceil \log_2 p\rceil$.…

Bondy and Vince proved that a graph of minimum degree at least three contains two cycles whose lengths differ by one or two, which was conjectured by Erd\H{o}s. Gao, Li, Ma and Xie gave an average degree counterpart of Bondy-Vince's result,…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers. We denote by $v_2(n)$ the 2-adic valuation of $n$. The Stirling numbers of the first kind, denoted by $s(n,k)$, counts the number of permutations of $n$ elements with $k$ disjoint cycles. In recent…

We consider a common-components model for multivariate fractional cointegration, in which the $s\geq1$ components have different memory parameters. The cointegrating rank may exceed 1. We decompose the true cointegrating vectors into…

Let $\gamma$ be a bounded convex curve on a plane. Then $\sharp (\gamma\cap (\Z/n)^2)=o(n^{2/3})$. It streghtens the classical result of Jarn\'\i k (an upper estimate $O(n^{2/3})$) and disproves a conjecture of Vershik on existence of the…

We consider the generalized two-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation $u_t+\partial_x \Delta u+\partial_x(u^{k+1})=0$, where $k\geq3$ is an integer number. For $k\geq8$ we prove local well-posedness in the $L^2$-based Sobolev spaces…

The representation for the sharp constant ${\rm K}_{n, p}$ in an estimate of the modulus of the $n$-th derivative of an analytic function in the upper half-plane ${\mathbb C}_+$ is considered. It is assumed that the boundary value of the…

In this article, we solve the problem of the long time behaviour of transition probabilities of time-inhomogeneous Markov processes and give a unified approach to stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with periodic, quasi-periodic,…

For various positive integers $k$, the sums of $k$th powers of the first $n$ positive integers, $S_k(n+1)=1^k+2^k+...+n^k$, have got to be some of the most popular sums in all of mathematics. In this note we prove that for each $k\ge 2 $$…

This work establishes new convergence guarantees for gradient descent in smooth convex optimization via a computer-assisted analysis technique. Our theory allows nonconstant stepsize policies with frequent long steps potentially violating…

We investigate a fifty-year-old conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Graham concerning whether the binomial coefficient ${n \choose k}$ with $1 \leq k \leq \frac{n}{2}$ must always have a divisor $\leq n$ that is ``close'' to $n$: that is, bigger…
