We prove new one-dimensional symmetry results for non-negative solutions, possibly unbounded, to the semilinear equation $ -\Delta u= f(u)$ in the upper half-space $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+}$. Some Liouville-type theorems are also proven in the…
A version of the fundamental mean-square convergence theorem is proved for stochastic differential equations (SDE) which coefficients are allowed to grow polynomially at infinity and which satisfy a one-sided Lipschitz condition. The…
Given a nonnegative polynomial f, we provide an explicit expression for its best $\ell_1$-norm approximation by a sum of squares of given degree.
Let $F(X,Y)=\sum\limits_{i=0}^sa_iX^{r_i}Y^{r-r_i}\in\mathbb{Z}[X,Y]$ be a form of degree $r=r_s\geq 3$, irreducible over $\mathbb{Q}$ and having at most $s+1$ non-zero coefficients. Mueller and Schmidt showed that the number of solutions…
We study the properties of the logarithm of the derivative operator and show that its action on a constant is not zero, but yields the sum of the logarithmic function and the Euler-Mascheroni constant. We discuss more general aspects…
We represent the number of mxn non-negative integer matrices (contingency tables) with prescribed row sums and column sums as the expected value of the permanent of a non-negative random matrix with exponentially distributed entries. We…
Let $$ T(q)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty d(k) q^k, \quad |q|<1, $$ where $d(k)$ denotes the number of positive divisors of the natural number $k$. We present monotonicity properties of functions defined in terms of $T$. More specifically, we proved…
We study a new kind of symmetric polynomials P_n(x_1,...,x_m) of degree n in m real variables, which have arisen in the theory of numerical semigroups. We establish their basic properties and find their representation through the power sums…
We consider the value distribution of logarithms of symmetric power L-functions associated with newforms of even weight and prime power level. In the symmetric square case, under certain plausible analytical conditions, we prove that…
The parity of Selmer ranks for elliptic curves defined over the rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$ with good ordinary reduction at an odd prime $p$ has been studied by Shekhar. The proof of Shekhar relies on proving a parity result for the…
In this paper we obtain logarithmic Hardy and Rellich inequalities on general Lie groups. In the case of graded groups, we also show their refinements using the homogeneous Sobolev norms. In fact, we derive a family of weighted logarithmic…
A classical result of variational analysis, known as Attouch theorem, establishes the equivalence between epigraphical convergence of a sequence of proper convex lower semicontinuous functions and graphical convergence of the corresponding…
It is proved that \[ \sum_{k,{\ell}=1}^N\frac{\gcd(n_k,n_{\ell})}{\sqrt{n_k n_{\ell}}} \ll N\exp\left(C\sqrt{\frac{\log N \log\log\log N}{\log\log N}}\right) \] holds for arbitrary integers $1\le n_1<\cdots < n_N$. This bound is essentially…
The abbreviations LMI and SOS stand for `linear matrix inequality' and `sum of squares', respectively. The cone $\Sigma_{n,2d}$ of SOS polynomials in $n$ variables of degree at most $2d$ is known to have a semidefinite extended formulation…
We prove that if the system of integer translates of a square integrable function is $\ell^2$-linear independent then its periodization function is strictly positive almost everywhere. Indeed we show that the above inference is true for any…
Let $\alpha_1,\alpha_2$ be non-zero algebraic numbers such that $\frac{\log \alpha_2}{\log\alpha_1}\notin\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\beta$ be a quadratic irrational number. In this article, we prove that the values of two relatively prime…
We prove Stanley's conjecture that, if delta_n is the staircase shape, then the skew Schur functions s_{delta_n / mu} are non-negative sums of Schur P-functions. We prove that the coefficients in this sum count certain fillings of shifted…
We study positive solutions of the superlinear Lane-Emden inequality \(-\Delta u\ge \sigma u^q\), \(q>1\), on infinite locally finite weighted graphs and connected domains of such graphs. We first prove that solvability is equivalent to the…
Some subadditivity results involving symmetric (unitarily invariant) norms are obtained. For instance, if $g(t)=\sum_{k=0}^m a_kt^k$ is a polynomial of degree $m$ with non-negative coefficients, then, for all positive operators $A,\,B$ and…
The proof of the inequality $\lambda_{q}(x,t)\le (q\mu_{x,t} -0^+)^{-1}$ [p 750, below Eq. (29)] is based on the statement that ${\cal E}(x,t;s)$ is an entire function of $s\in {\mathbb C}^M$ [see below Eq. (30)]. But according to Equation…
