Numerical study of the distribution of the Riemann zeros differences following the work [1] shows the significance of the function for which the prime sum expression is proposed. Computational results related to this definition explored…

Frequency domain Mie solutions to scattering from spheres have been used for a long time. However, deriving their transient analogue is a challenge as it involves an inverse Fourier transform of the spherical Hankel functions (and their…

A relevant result independently obtained by Rayleigh and Sneddon on an identity on series involving the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind is derived by an alternative method based on Laplace transforms. Our method leads to a…

Given a bounded measurable function $\sigma$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, we let $T_\sigma $ be the operator obtained by multiplication on the Fourier transform by $\sigma $. Let $0<s_1\le s_2\le \cdots \le s_n<1$ and $\psi$ be a Schwartz function on…

The equation $x^2 + 1 = 0\mod p$ has solutions whenever $p = 2$ or $4n + 1$. A famous theorem of Fermat says that these primes are exactly the ones that can be described as a sum of two squares. That the roots of the former equation are…

For any bounded convex domain \Omega in R^N, we assign a positive finite Borel measure associated with the solution to a su-blinear elliptic equation in \Omega. We prove that this measure is weakly continuous in the sense of measure with…

Let $\psi$ be a continuous decreasing function defined on all large positive real numbers. We say that a real $m\times n$ matrix $A$ is $\psi$-Dirichlet if for every sufficiently large real number $t$ one can find $\mathbf{p} \in…

In this paper we quantify the notion of antisymmetry of the Fourier transform of certain vector valued measures. The introduced scale is related to the condition appearing in Uchiyama's theorem and is used to give a lower bound for the…

These are notes of a talk based on the work arXiv:1212.3630 joint with A. Aizenbud. Let V be a finite-dimensional vector space over a local field F of characteristic 0. Let f be a function on V of the form $f(x)= \psi (P(x))$, where P is a…

For all $s\in[0,1]$ and $t\in(0,s]\cup [2-s,2)$, we find the supremum of numbers $\omega\in(0,2)$ such that $\text{I}_\omega(\mu\ast\sigma) \lesssim 1$, where $\mu$ is any Borel measure on $B(1)$ with $\text{I}_t(\mu)\leq 1$ and $\sigma$ is…

The spectral norm of a Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n \to \{-1,1\}$ is the sum of the absolute values of its Fourier coefficients. This quantity provides useful upper and lower bounds on the complexity of a function in areas such as learning…

We present the exact solution for a set of nonlinear algebraic equations $\frac{1}{z_l}= \pi d + \frac{2 d}{n} \sum_{m \neq l} \frac{1}{z_l-z_m}$. These were encountered by us in a recent study of the low energy spectrum of the Heisenberg…

For any periodic function $f:{\mathbb N} \to {\mathbb C}$ with period $q$, we study the Dirichlet series $L(s,f):=\sum_{n\geq 1} f(n)/n^s.$ It is well-known that this admits an analytic continuation to the entire complex plane except at…

The Dirichlet lambda function $\lambda(s)$ is defined for $\mathrm{Re}(s) > 1$ by \[ \lambda(s) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2n+1)^s}. \] This function was initially studied by Euler on the real line, where he denoted it by $N(s)$. In…

We construct Salem sets on the real line with endpoint Fourier decay and near-endpoint regularity properties. This complements a result of \L aba and Pramanik, who obtained near-endpoint Fourier decay and endpoint regularity properties. We…

An elementary, but very useful lemma due to Biernacki and Krzy\.{z} (1955) asserts that the ratio of two power series inherits monotonicity from that of the sequence of ratios of their respective coefficients. Over the last two decades it…

We study the following functional equation that has arisen in the context of mechanical systems invariant under the Poincare algebra: \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n+1}\dfrac{\partial}{\partial x_{i}}\prod\limits_{j\neq i}f(x_{i}-x_{j}) =0,\qquad n…

R. Kaufman and M. Tsujii proved that the Fourier transform of self-similar measures has a power decay outside of a sparse set of frequencies. We present a version of this result for homogeneous self-similar measures, with quantitative…

We prove that the existence of exceptional real zeroes of Dirichlet $L$-functions would lead to cancellations in the sum $\sum_{p\leq x} \Kl(1, p)$ of Kloosterman sums over primes, and also to sign changes of $\Kl(1, n)$, where $n$ runs…

We link together three themes which had remained separated so far: the Hilbert space properties of the Riemann zeros, the ``dual Poisson formula'' of Duffin-Weinberger (also named by us co-Poisson formula), and the ``Sonine spaces'' of…
