Let $f(N)$ denote the least integer $k$ such that, if $G$ is an abelian group of order $N$ and $A \subseteq G$ is a uniformly random $k$-element subset, then with probability at least $\tfrac12$ the subset-sum set $\{ \sum_{x \in S} x : S…
In this paper we prove the uniqueness of the critical point for stable solutions of the Robin problem \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta u=f(u)&\text{in }\Omega\\ u>0&\text{in }\Omega\\ \partial_\nu u+\beta u=0&\text{on }\partial\Omega, \end{cases}…
This paper studies the non-holomorphic Eisenstein series E(z,s) for the modular surface, and shows that integration with respect to certain non-negative measures gives meromorphic functions of s that have all their zeros on the critical…
We study generalizations of some results of Jean-Louis Nicolas regarding the relation between small values of Euler's function $\varphi(n)$ and the Riemann Hypothesis. Among other things, we prove that for $1\leq q\leq 10$ and for $q=12,…
We prove that an innocent looking inequality implies the Riemann Hypothesis and show a way to approach this inequality through sums of Legendre symbols.
Let $S(\sigma,t)=\frac{1}{\pi}\arg\zeta(\sigma+it)$ be the argument of the Riemann zeta-function at the point $\sigma+it$ in the critical strip. For $n\geq 1$ and $t>0$, we define \begin{equation*} S_{n}(\sigma,t) = \int_0^t…
On the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis and a spacing hypothesis for the nontrivial zeros $\frac12+i\gamma$ of the Riemann zeta function, we show that the sequence \[ \Gamma_{[a, b]} =\Bigg\{ \gamma : \gamma>0 \quad \mbox{and} \quad…
We go further in the investigation of the Robin problem $(P_{\alpha})$: $-\Delta u=a(x)u^{q}$ in $\Omega$, $u\geq0$ in $\Omega$, $\partial_{\nu}u=\alpha u$ on $\partial \Omega$; on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$, with $a$…
We call $n$ a cyclic number if every group of order $n$ is cyclic. It is implicit in work of Dickson, and explicit in work of Szele, that $n$ is cyclic precisely when $\gcd(n,\phi(n))=1$. With $C(x)$ denoting the count of cyclic $n\le x$,…
In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior, as $\beta \to 0$, of positive solutions to the semilinear elliptic Robin problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u = u^p, & \text{in } \Omega,\\ u > 0, & \text{in } \Omega,\\…
For an analytic and univalent function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}:=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$, the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ are defined by $\log \frac{f(z)}{z}= 2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…
We show that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the measure $$\mu=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\Lambda(n)}{\sqrt{n}}(\delta_{\log n}+\delta_{-\log n})+2\cosh(x/2)\,dx$$ is a tempered distribution. In this case it is the Fourier…
In previous work it was shown that if certain series based on sums over primes of non-principal Dirichlet characters have a conjectured random walk behavior, then the Euler product formula for its $L$-function is valid to the right of the…
This paper is devoted to the Lin-Ni conjecture for a semi-linear elliptic equation with a super-linear, sub-critical nonlinearity and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. We establish a new rigidity result, that is, we prove that the…
We substantially apply the Li criterion for the Riemann hypothesis to hold. Based upon a series representation for the sequence \{\lambda_k\}, which are certain logarithmic derivatives of the Riemann xi function evaluated at unity, we…
Let $S(t) = \tfrac{1}{\pi} \arg \zeta (\frac12 + it)$ be the argument of the Riemann zeta-function at the point $\tfrac12 + it$. For $n \geq 1$ and $t>0$ define its iterates \begin{equation*} S_n(t) = \int_0^t S_{n-1}(\tau) \,{\rm d}\tau\,…
Let $\gamma_n$ be the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbb R^n$ and let $(Q_t)$ be the Ornstein--Ulhenbeck semigroup. Eldan and Lee recently established that for every non--negative function $f$ of integral $1$ and any time $t$ the…
Cilleruelo conjectured that if $f\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree $d\ge 2$ is irreducible over the rationals, then $\log\operatorname{lcm}(f(1),\ldots,f(N))\sim(d-1)N\log N$ as $N\to\infty$. He proved it for the case $d = 2$. Very recently,…
Affirming a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Renyi we prove that for any (real number) c_1>0 for some c_2>0, if a graph G has no c_1(log n) nodes on which the graph is complete or edgeless (i.e. G exemplifies |G| not-> (c_1 log n)^2_2) then G…
For integers $s,t \geq 2$, the Ramsey numbers $r(s,t)$ denote the minimum $N$ such that every $N$-vertex graph contains either a clique of order $s$ or an independent set of order $t$. In this paper we prove \[ r(4,t) =…
