We study sums of a random multiplicative function; this is an example, of number-theoretic interest, of sums of products of independent random variables (chaoses). Using martingale methods, we establish a normal approximation for the sum…

We prove a generalized version of Rogers' mean value formula in the space $X_n$ of unimodular lattices in $R^n$, which gives the mean value of a multiple sum over a lattice $L$ and its dual $L^*$. As an application, we prove that for $L$…

In this paper we consider estimating the number of solutions to multiplicative equations in finite fields when the variables run through certain sets with high additive structure. In particular, we consider estimating the multiplicative…

Let $L$ be a solvable Lie algebra of dimension less than or equal to 4 over finite fields. We compute and record, in explicit symbolic form, the zeta functions enumerating subalgebras or ideals of $L$, and study their properties. We also…

A function between two metric spaces is said to be totally bounded regular if it preserves totally bounded sets. These functions need not be continuous in general. Hence the purpose of this article is to study such functions vis-\'a-vis…

We study combinatorial properties of convex sets over arbitrary valued fields. We demonstrate analogs of some classical results for convex sets over the reals (e.g. the fractional Helly theorem and B\'ar\'any's theorem on points in many…

The classical Hahn-Banach theorem is based on a successive point-by-point procedure of extending bounded linear functionals. In the setting of a general metric domain, the conditions are less restrictive and the extension is only required…

We propose analogs of the classical Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and the Generalized Simplicity Conjecture for the characteristic p L-series associated to function fields over a finite field. These analogs are based on the use of absolute…

The proposed system of integer functions is logically fully independent from the traditional mathematical analysis of the real functions, but there is a well-defined mutual correspondence between the two disciplines. The system of integer…

We present a study of real Hurwitz numbers enumerating a special kind of real meromorphic functions, which we call simple framed purely real functions. We deduce partial differential equations of cut-and-join type for generating functions…

Finite sample bounds on the estimation error of the mean by the empirical mean, uniform over a class of functions, can often be conveniently obtained in terms of Rademacher or Gaussian averages of the class. If a function of n variables has…

Let $\alpha$ be a Steinhaus or a Rademacher random multiplicative function. For a wide class of multiplicative functions $f$ we show that the sum $\sum_{n \le x}\alpha(n) f(n)$, normalised to have mean square $1$, has a non-Gaussian…

In a previous paper of the second author with K. Ono, surprising multiplicative properties of the partition function were presented. Here, we deal with $k$-regular partitions. Extending the generating function for $k$-regular partitions…

A strong consequence of quadratic forms becoming hyperbolic over the function field of a form is established. This result is invoked to obtain a new characterisation of hyperbolicity over function fields, and to recover a number of…

We prove a pointwise convergence result for additive ergodic averages associated with certain multiplicative actions of the Gaussian integers. We derive several applications in dynamics and number theory, including: (i) Wirsing's theorem…

We give a characterization of harmonic and subharmonic functions in terms of their mean values in balls and on spheres. This includes the converse of an inequality of Beardon's for subharmonic functions. We also obtain integral inequalities…

We investigate the analogues of certain classical estimates of Littlewood for the Riemann zeta-function in the context of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over function fields. In some situations, we are actually able to establish finer…

We establish several sum-product estimates over finite fields that involve polynomials and rational functions. First, |f(A)+f(A)|+|AA| is substantially larger than |A| for an arbitrary polynomial f over F_p. Second, a characterization is…

We discuss how one could study asymptotics of cyclotomic quantities via the mean values of certain multiplicative functions and their Dirichlet series using a theorem of Delange. We show how this could provide a new approach to Artin's…

Granville-Soundararajan, Harper-Nikeghbali-Radziwill, and Heap-Lindqvist independently established an asymptotic for the even natural moments of partial sums of random multiplicative functions defined over integers. Building on these works,…
