We examine convergent representations for the sum of Bessel functions \[\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{J_\mu(na) J_\nu(nb)}{n^{\alpha}}\] for $\mu$, $\nu\geq0$ and positive values of $a$ and $b$. Such representations enable easy computation of the…
In this note we give a short and self-contained proof that, for any $\delta > 0$, $\sum_{x \leq n \leq x+x^\delta} \lambda(n) = o(x^\delta)$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. We also sketch a proof of a generalization of such a result to…
This is an introduction to calculus, and its applications to basic questions from physics. We first discuss the theory of functions $f:\mathbb R\to\mathbb R$, with the notion of continuity, and the construction of the derivative $f'(x)$ and…
Motivated by recent results, we study sums of the form $S_f(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} f\left(\left\lfloor\frac{x}{n}\right\rfloor \right)$, where $f$ is an arithmetic function and $\left\lfloor\cdot\right\rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer…
Let $X=\{X_n: n\in\mathbb{N}\}$ be a long memory linear process in which the coefficients are regularly varying and innovations are independent and identically distributed and belong to the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable law…
In analysis, it's often useful to know the value of a function at infinity, this operation possesses pleasant properties. However, even when the limit does not exist, some intuitive considerations may suggest that the function still assumes…
We consider the space $C_{\lambda}$ of all continuous interval maps preserving the Lebesgue measure $\lambda$. A continuous function $f\colon~[0,1]\to \mathbb R$ is called Besicovitch if it does not have any finite or infinite unilateral…
Some limit theorems of the type $\int_{\Omega}f_n dm_n -- --> \int_{\Omega}f dm$ are presented for scalar, (vector), (multi)-valued sequences of m_n-integrable functions f_n. The convergences obtained, in the vector and multivalued…
We study differential-difference equation of the form $$ \frac{d}{dx}t(n+1,x)=f(t(n,x),t(n+1,x),\frac{d}{dx}t(n,x)) $$ with unknown $t(n,x)$ depending on continuous and discrete variables $x$ and $n$. Equation of such kind is called Darboux…
We prove some results on the behavior of infinite sums of the form $\Sigma f\circ T^n(x)\frac{1}{n}$, where $T:S^1\to S^1$ is an irrational circle rotation and $f$ is a mean-zero function on $S^1$. In particular, we show that for a certain…
Let $G$ be a discrete group. Let $\lambda : G \to B(\ell_2(G),\ell_2(G))$ be the left regular representation. A function $\ph : G \to \comp$ is called a completely bounded multiplier (= Herz-Schur multiplier) if the transformation defined…
Tur\'an observed that logarithmic partial sums $\sum_{n\le x}\frac{f(n)}{n}$ of completely multiplicative functions (in the particular case of the Liouville function $f(n)=\lambda(n)$) tend to be positive. We develop a general approach to…
We look at a measure, $\lambda^\infty$, on the infinite-dimensional space, ${\mathbb R}^\infty$, for which we attempt to put forth an analogue of the Lebesgue density theorem. Although this measure allows us to find partial results, for…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a set of mutually coprime positive integers, satisfying \begin{align*} \sum\limits_{a\in\mathcal{A}}\frac{1}{a} = \infty. \end{align*} Define the (possibly non-multiplicative) "Liouville-like" functions \begin{align*}…
For various arithmetic functions $f:\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R}$, the behavior of $f(n!)$ and that of $\sum_{n\le N} f(n!)$ can be intriguing. For instance, for some functions $f$, we have ${f(n!)=\sum_{k\le n}f(k)}$, for others, we have…
We study the Dirichlet series $F_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty d_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $d_b(n)$ is the sum of the base-$b$ digits of the integer $n$, and $G_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty S_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $S_b(n)=\sum_{m=1}^{n-1}d_b(m)$ is the summatory…
A non-negative function f, defined on the real line or on a half-line, is said to be directly Riemann integrable (d.R.i.) if the upper and lower Riemann sums of f over the whole (unbounded) domain converge to the same finite limit, as the…
This paper investigates certain classes of entire functions in C^n that, together with their partial derivatives, share a finite set consisting of three elements. By employing normality criteria, we study the behaviour of such functions and…
We study fractality of unbounded sets of finite Lebesgue measure at infinity by introducing the notions of Minkowski dimension and content at infinity. We also introduce the Lapidus zeta function at infinity, study its properties and…
We study sums of the shape $\sum_{n \leqslant x} f \left( \lfloor x/n \rfloor \right)$ where $f$ is either the von Mangoldt function or the Dirichlet-Piltz divisor functions. We improve previous estimates when $f = \Lambda$ and $f = \tau$,…
