In 2014, Flynn and the second author bounded the average number of components of the functional graphs of polynomials of fixed degree over a finite field. When the fixed degree was large (relative to the size of the finite field), their…

We study a general class of multiplicative functions by relating "short averages" to its "long average". More precisely, we estimate asymptotically the variance of such a class of functions in short intervals using Fourier analysis and…

We give a new fast method for evaluating sprectral approximations of nonlinear polynomial functionals. We prove that the new algorithm is convergent if the functions considered are smooth enough, under a general assumption on the spectral…

We prove essentially optimal $L^p(\mathbb{R})$-estimates for variational variants of the maximal Fourier multiplier operators considered by Bourgain in his work on pointwise convergence of polynomial ergodic averages. As a corollary of our…

We study piecewise polynomial functions $\gamma_k(c)$ that appear in the asymptotics of averages of the divisor sum in short intervals. Specifically, we express these polynomials as the inverse Fourier transform of a Hankel determinant that…

We study for bounded multiplicative functions $f$ sums of the form \begin{align*} \sum_{\substack{n\leq x \atop n\equiv a\pmod q}}f(n), \end{align*} establishing that their variance over residue classes $a \pmod q$ is small as soon as…

We study sums over primes of trace functions of $\ell$-adic sheaves. Using an extension of our earlier results on algebraic twist of modular forms to the case of Eisenstein series and bounds for Type II sums based on similar applications of…

We present new estimates for sums of the divisor function, and other similar arithmetic functions, in short intervals over function fields. (When the intervals are long, one obtains a good estimate from the Riemann hypothesis.) We obtain an…

In this paper we prove the mean values of some multiplicative functions connected with the divisor function on the short interval of summation.

We study the arithmetic (real) function, with f 'essentially bounded'. In particular, we obtain non-trivial bounds, through f 'correlations', for the 'Selberg integral' and the 'symmetry integral' of f in almost all short intervals…

We extend some definitions and give new results about the theory of slice analysis in several quaternionic variables. The sets of slice functions which are respectively slice, slice regular and circular w.r.t. given variables are…

Functional digraphs are unlabelled finite digraphs where each vertex has exactly one out-neighbor. They are isomorphic classes of finite discrete-time dynamical systems. Endowed with the direct sum and product, functional digraphs form a…

We show that there exist unbounded functionals on the spaces of sequences that take at most one nonzero value on an arbitrary family of elements whose supports are pairwise disjoint.

We provide a sufficient characterization for subsets $\mathcal{A}$ of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ for which partial sums of Steinhaus random multiplicative functions approach a complex standard normal distribution. This extends…

We consider a large class of piecewise expanding maps T of [0,1] with a neutral fixed point, and their associated Markov chain Y_i whose transition kernel is the Perron-Frobenius operator of T with respect to the absolutely continuous…

Recently we found necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence at a preassigned point of the spherical partial sums of the Fourier integral in a class of piecewise smooth functions in Euclidean space. These yield elementary…

The paper develops a method for discrete computational Fourier analysis of functions defined on quasicrystals and other almost periodic sets. A key point is to build the analysis around the emerging theory of quasicrystals and diffraction…

We compute some dependence coefficients for the stationary Markov chain whose transition kernel is the Perron-Frobenius operator of an expanding map $T$ of $[0, 1]$ with a neutral fixed point. We use these coefficients to prove a central…

Let $\phi$ be a smooth function on a compact interval $I$. Let $$\gamma(t)=\left (t,t^2,\cdots,t^{n-1},\phi(t)\right).$$ In this paper, we show that $$\left(\int_I \big|\hat f(\gamma(t))\big|^q \big|\phi^{(n)}(t)\big|^{\frac{2}{n(n+1)}}…

We estimate the mean square of a short exponential sum involving Fourier coefficients of a cusp form with a linear twist, a smooth weight function, and a relatively short averaging interval.
