We define a subspace of the space of holomorphic modular forms of weight $k+1/2$ and level $4M$ where $M$ is odd and square-free. We show that this subspace is isomorphic under the Shimura-Niwa correspondence to the space of newforms of…

We prove that if A is a subset of the primes, and the lower density of A in the primes is larger than 1/2, then every sufficiently large even integer can be written as the sum of eight primes from A. The constant 1/2 in this statement is…

A necessary and sufficient condition is established for an asymptotically stable renewal process to satisfy the strong renewal theorem. This result is valid for all alpha in (0, 1), thus completing a result for alpha in (1/2, 1) which was…

In this paper we generalize the result of Fouvry and Iwaniec dealing with prime values of the quadratic form $x^2 + y^2$ with one input restricted to a thin subset of the integers. We prove the same result with an arbitrary primitive…

Let $\chi$ be a real and non-principal Dirichlet character, $L(s,\chi)$ its Dirichlet $L$-function and let $p$ be a generic prime number. We prove the following result: If for some $0\leq \sigma<1$ the partial sums $\sum_{p\leq…

Let $f$ be a newform of prime level $p$ with any central character $\chi\, (\bmod\, p)$, and let $g$ be a fixed cusp form or Eisenstein series for $\hbox{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. We prove the subconvexity bound: for any $\varepsilon>0$,…

Let $p\ge 7$ be a prime number and $f$ a normalized eigen-newform with good reduction at $p$ such that its $p$-th Fourier coefficient vanishes. We construct a rank-two Euler system attached to the $p$-adic realization of the symmetric…

An infinite filiform Lie algebra L is residually nilpotent and its graded associated with respect to the lower central series has smallest possible dimension in each degree but is still infinite. This means that gr(L) is of dimension two in…

For a wide class of Dirichlet series associated to automorphic forms, we show that those without Euler products must have zeros within the region of absolute convergence. For instance, we prove that if f is a classical holomorphic modular…

In this note, we continue an approach pursued in an earlier paper of the second author and thereby attempt to produce an improved lower bound for the sum $I(q^k) + I(n^2)$, where $q^k n^2$ is an odd perfect number with special prime $q$ and…

Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer. A positive integer $n$ is $k$-\textit{gleeful} if $n$ can be represented as the sum of $k$th powers of consecutive primes. For example, $35=2^3+3^3$ is a $3$-gleeful number, and $195=5^2+7^2+11^2$ is $2$-gleeful.…

We prove that any $q$-automatic multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ either essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character, or vanishes on all sufficiently large primes. This confirms a strong form of a conjecture of J.…

We show that the greatest prime factor of $n^2+h$ is at least $n^{1.312}$ infinitely often. This gives an unconditional proof for the range previously known under the Selberg eigenvalue conjecture. Furthermore, we get uniformity in $h \leq…

We show that there exists a sequence $\{n_k, k\ge 1\}$ growing at least geometrically such that for any finite non-negative measure $\nu$ such that $\hat \nu\ge 0$, any $T>0$, $$ \int_{-2^{n_k} T}^{2^{n_k} T} \hat \nu(x) \dd x \ll_\e…

This paper concerns the values of the Euler phi-function evaluated simultaneously on k arithmetic progressions a_1 n + b_1, a_2 n + b_2, ..., a_k n + b_k. Assuming the necessary condition that no two of the polynomials a_i x + b_i are…

Let $K_n(x)$ denote the Fej\'er kernel given by $$K_n(x)=\sum_{j=-n}^n\left(1-\frac{|j|}{n+1}\right)e^{-ijx}$$ and let $\sigma_nf(x)=(K_n\ast f)(x)$, where as usual $f\ast g$ denotes the convolution of $f$ and $g$. Let the sequence…

Let $m>2$ and $q>0$ be integers with $m$ even or $q$ odd. We show the supercongruence $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}(-1)^{km}\binom{p/m-q}{k}^m\equiv0\pmod{p^3}.$$ for any prime $p>mq$. This confirms a conjecture of Sun.

Let $f$ be a Maass form for $SL(3, \mathbb{Z})$ which is fixed and $u_j$ be an orthonormal basis of even Maass forms for $SL(2, \mathbb{Z}),$ we prove an asymptotic formula for the average of the product of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-function…

We address the question of non-vanishing of $L(1,f)$ where $f$ is an algebraic-valued, periodic arithmetical function. We do this by characterizing algebraic-valued, periodic functions $f$ for which $L(1,f)=0$. The case of odd functions was…

Let $\pi$ be a unitary cuspidal automorphic representation of $\text{GL}_{4}(\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$. Let $f \geq 1$ be given. We show that there exists infinitely many primitive even (resp. odd) Dirichlet characters $\chi$ with conductor…
