In this work, we use the theory of error bounds to study metric regularity of the sum of two multifunctions, as well as some important properties of variational systems. We use an approach based on the metric regularity of epigraphical…

Let $V(x)$ be the number of sign changes of the partial sums up to $x$, say $M_f(x)$, of a Rademacher random multiplicative function $f$. We prove that the averaged value of $V(x)$ is at least $\gg (\log x)(\log\log x)^{-1/2-\epsilon}$. Our…

We use M\"obius inversion and the Bernoulli polynomials to prove inequalities between the logarithmic summatory function of the M\"obius function and weighted averages of its ordinary summatory function.

Although there is an extensive literature on the upper bound for cumulative standard normal distribution, there are relatively not sharp for all values of the interested argument x. The aim of this paper is to establish a sharp upper bound…

Let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function, defined as $\lambda(n) := (-1)^{\Omega(n)}$ where $\Omega(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ with multiplicity. In 2021, Helfgott and Radziwi{\l}{\l} proved that $$\sum_{n\leq x} \frac{1}{n}…

We establish a connection between analytic number theory and computational learning theory by showing that the M\"obius function belongs to a class of functions that is statistically hard to learn from random samples. Let $\mu_R$ denote the…

Let $g:\mathbb{N}\to\{-1,1\}$ be a completely multiplicative function, $\mu$ be the M\"obius function and $\mu_2^2(n)$ be the indicator that $n$ is cubefree. We prove that $f=\mu^2g$ and $f=\mu_2^2g$ have unbounded partial sums. Our proofs…

A recent asymptotic expansion for the positive zeros $x=j_{\nu,m}$ ($m=1,2,3,\ldots$) of the Bessel function of the first kind $J_{\nu}(x)$ is studied, where the order $\nu$ is positive. Unlike previous well-known expansions in the…

We offer some comments on series involving the M$\ddot{o}$bius function which approximate sums over primes. To accomplish this, we utilize the derivative of the Gram series by applying Riemann-Stieltjes integration. We offer a new formula…

An elementary recursive relation for M$\ddot{\mathrm{o}}$bius function $\mu (n)$ is introduced by two simple ways. With this recursive relation, $\mu (n)$ can be calculated without directly knowing the factorization of the $n$. $\mu (1)…

A particular consequence of the famous Carleson-Hunt theorem is that the Taylor series expansions of bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit disk converge almost everywhere on the boundary, whereas on single points the convergence…

For $(M,a)=1$, put \begin{equation*} G(X;M,a)=\sup_{p^\prime_n\leq X}(p^\prime_{n+1}-p^\prime_n), \end{equation*} where $p^\prime_n$ denotes the $n$-th prime that is congruent to $a\pmod{M}$. We show that for any positive $C$, provided $X$…

Consider a measure $\mu_\lambda = \sum_x \xi_x \delta_x$ where the sum is over points $x$ of a Poisson point process of intensity $\lambda$ on a bounded region in $d$-space, and $\xi_x$ is a functional determined by the Poisson points near…

This paper considers various formulations of the sum-product problem. It is shown that, for a finite set $A\subset{\mathbb{R}}$, $$|A(A+A)|\gg{|A|^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{178}}},$$ giving a partial answer to a conjecture of Balog. In a…

We introduce approximation functions of $li(x)$ for all $x\ge e$: (1) $\displaystyle li_{\underline{\omega},\alpha}(x) = \frac{x}{\log(x)}\left( \alpha\frac{\underline{m}!}{\log^{\underline{m}}(x)} +…

Let $m,r\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $\omega\in\mathbb{R}$ satisfy $0\leqslant r\leqslant m$ and $\omega\geqslant1$. Our main result is a generalized continued fraction for an expression involving the partial binomial sum $s_m(r) =…

We present a common ground for infinite sums, unordered sums, Riemann/Lebesgue integrals, arc length and some generalized means. It is based on extending functions on finite sets using Hausdorff metric in a natural way.
