Let $M$ be a closed differentiable manifold of dimension at least $3$. Let $\Lambda_0 (M)$ be the minimun number of non-positive eigenvalues that the conformal Laplacian of a metric on $M$ can have. We prove that for any $k$ greater than or…

In this paper we introduce a new diophantine inequality with prime numbers. Let $1<c<\frac{10}{9}$. We show that for any fixed $\theta>1$, every sufficiently large positive number $N$ and a small constant $\varepsilon>0$, the tangent…

Let $X$ be a scheme of finite type over $\mathbf{Z}$. For $p \in \mathcal{P}$ the set of prime numbers, let $N_{X}(p)$ be the number of $\mathbf{F}_{p}$-points of $X/\mathbf{F}_{p}$. For fixed $n\geq 1$ and $a_{1}, \ldots, a_{n} \in…

We prove new upper bounds for the number of representations of an arbitrary rational number as a sum of three unit fractions. In particular, for fixed $m$ there are at most $\mathcal{O}_{\epsilon}(n^{3/5+\epsilon})$ solutions of…

For $p$ being a large prime number, and $A \subset \mathbb{F}_p$ we prove the following: $(i)$ If $A(A+A)$ does not cover all nonzero residues in $\mathbb{F}_p$, then $|A| < p/8 + o(p)$. $(ii)$ If $A$ is both sum-free and satisfies $A =…

It was conjectured by Flynn that there exists a constant $\kappa$ such that, for any integer $g \ge 2$, any $m \le \kappa g$, there exists a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ over $\mathbb Q$ with a rational $m$-torsion point on its…

We extend the classical Plateau-Rayleigh instability criterion in the $\mathbb{E}(\kappa,\tau)$ spaces. We prove the existence of a positive number $L_0>0$ such that if a truncated circular cylinder of radius $\rho$ in…

This paper is a contribution to the investigation of closed partition relations for pairs of countable ordinals. As our main result, we prove that \[\omega^4 \cdot (n-2)+1 < R^{cl}(\omega \cdot n+1,3)<\omega^5\] for every integer $n \geq…

For any $\epsilon>0$, there exists $q_0(\epsilon)$ such for any $q\ge q_0(\epsilon)$ and any invertible residue class $a$ modulo $q$, there exists a natural number that is congruent to $a$ modulo $q$ and that is the product of exactly three…

Chao-Zhong Chen et al. $[{Proc}.$ ${Amer. Math. Soc},2013],$ proved the upper estimate $\frac{\lambda _{n}}{\lambda _{m}}\leq \frac{% n^{p}}{m^{p}}$ $ (n>m\geq 1) $ for Dirichlet Shr\"{o}dinger operators with nonnegative and single-well…

Very differently from those perturbative techniques of Deng-Musso in [26], we use the assumption of a $C^1$-stable critical point to construct positive or sign-changing solutions with arbitrary $m$ isolated bubbles to the boundary value…

Let $\varepsilon>0$ and, for an odd prime $p$, set $$ S_\ell(p):=\sum_{n\le \ell}\left(\frac{n}{p}\right). $$ Define the first-passage time $$ f_\varepsilon(p):=\min\{\ell\ge 1:\ S_\ell(p)<\varepsilon\ell\}. $$ We prove that there exists a…

We prove that for any prime $p$ there is a divisible by $p$ number $q = O(p^{30})$ such that for a certain positive integer $a$ coprime with $q$ the ratio $a/q$ has bounded partial quotients. In the other direction we show that there is an…

Let $S$ be a compact infinite set in the complex plane with $0\notin{S}$, and let $R_n$ be the minimal residual polynomial on $S$, i.e., the minimal polynomial of degree at most $n$ on $S$ with respect to the supremum norm provided that…

Erd\H{o}s asked whether there are infinitely many finite sets of distinct primes $p_1<\cdots<p_k$ and positive integers $m$ such that \begin{equation}\label{eq:erdos-original} \frac1{p_1}+\cdots+\frac1{p_k}=1-\frac1m. \end{equation} This is…

Let $\varepsilon>0$ be a fixed small constant, ${\mathbb F}_p$ be the finite field of $p$ elements for prime $p$. We consider additive and multiplicative problems in ${\mathbb F}_p$ that involve intervals and arbitrary sets. Representative…

We show that there exist real numbers $\alpha_1,\alpha_2$ linearly independent over $\mathbb{Z}$ together with 1 such that for every non-zero integer vector $(m_1,m_2)$ with $m_1\ge 0$ and $m_2\ge 0$ one has $||m_1\alpha_1+m_2\alpha_2|| \ge…

We prove that if $\varepsilon(m)\to 0$ arbitrarily slowly, then for almost all $m$ and any $A\subset\mathbb{Z}_m$ such that $A-A$ does not contain non-zero quadratic residues we have $|A|\leq m^{1/2-\varepsilon(m)}.$

P\'olya's Positivstellensatz on the $1$-simplex says that if $P(x)$ is a real polynomial such that $P(x)>0$ whenever $x \ge 0$, then all the coefficients of $(1+x)^mP(x)$ are positive whenever $m$ is large. Powers-Reznick gave a complexity…
