The first author introduced a sequence of polynomials (\cite{8}, sequence A174531) defined recursively. One of the main results of this study is proof of the integrality of its coefficients.

We present a new form and a short full proof of explicit two-sided estimates for the distribution function F_{n,p}(x) of the binomial law from the paper published by D.Alfers and H.Dinges in 1984. These inequalities are universal (valid for…

In 1977 Montgomery and Vaughan gave tight bounds for exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n\leq x}f(n)e(n\alpha)$ where $f$ is a $1$-bounded multiplicative function and $\alpha\in\mathbb R$, close to the conjectured $\ll \frac{x}{\sqrt{q}}+…

In this paper we prove a version of Lie-B\"acklund theorem for overdetermined systems of scalar PDEs, whose general solution depends on 1 function of 1 variable. This generalizes the case of involutive system of the second order on the…

If $P(x)$ is the error term in the circle problem, then it is proved that $$\int_0^\infty P^2(x)e^{-x/T}dx = {1\over4}({T\over\pi})^{3/2} \sum_{n=1}^\infty r^2(n)n^{-3/2} - T + O_\epsilon(T^{2/3+\epsilon}), $$ improving the author's earlier…

We prove limit theorems for sums of randomly chosen random variables conditioned on the summands. We consider several versions of the corner growth setting, including specific cases of dependence amongst the summands and summands with heavy…

Let $x_i$, $i\in\mathbb{Z}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. standard normal random variables. Consider rectangular Toeplitz $\mathbf{X}=\left(x_{j-i}\right)_{1\leq i\leq p,1\leq j\leq n}$ and circulant $\mathbf{X}=\left(x_{(j-i)\mod…

We obtain results concerning the so-called factorization for the convergence of random variables almost everywhere (almost surely or with probability one), belonging to the classical Lebesgue-Riesz spaces and we extend these results to the…

Let $X_{1},X_{2},...$ be a sequence of independent random variables ($rv$) with common distribution function ($df$) $F$ such that $F(1)=0$. We consider the simple statistical problem : find a statistics family of size $m\geq 1$ whose…

We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the sum of M independent continuous random variables modulo 1 to converge to the uniform distribution in L^1([0,1]), and discuss generalizations to discrete random variables. A consequence…

We investigate the properties of a discrete-time martingale $\{X_m\}_{m\in \mathbb Z_{\geq 0}}$, where all differences between adjacent random variables are limited to be not more than a constant as a promise. In this situation, it is known…

A central limit theorem is proved for some strictly stationary sequences of random variables that satisfy certain mixing conditions and are subjected to the "shrinking operators" $U_r(x):=[\max\{|x|-r,0\}]\cdot x/|x|,\ r \ge 0$. For…

We introduce the notion of idempotent variables for studying equations in inverse monoids. It is proved that it is decidable in singly exponential time (DEXPTIME) whether a system of equations in idempotent variables over a free inverse…

W.E. Roth (1952) proved that the matrix equation $AX-XB=C$ has a solution if and only if the matrices $\left[\begin{matrix}A&C\\0&B\end{matrix}\right]$ and $\left[\begin{matrix}A&0\\0&B\end{matrix}\right]$ are similar. A. Dmytryshyn and B.…

Let the random variable $X\, :=\, e(\mathcal{H}[B])$ count the number of edges of a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ induced by a random $m$ element subset $B$ of its vertex set. Focussing on the case that $\mathcal{H}$ satisfies some regularity…

In a paper from 1960, Felix Browder established a theorem concerning the continuation of the fixed points of a family of continuous functions $f_t:X\to X$ depending continuously on a parameter $t\in [0,1]$, where $X$ is a convex and compact…

We give a new bound on the probability that the random sum $\xi_1 v_1 +...+ \xi_n v_n$ belongs to a ball of fixed radius, where the $\xi_i$ are iid Bernoulli random variables and the $v_i$ are vectors in $\R^d$. As an application, we prove…

We prove that, for every norm on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and every $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the Hausdorff dimension of the distance set of $E$ with respect to that norm is at least $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} E - (d-1)$. An explicit construction follows,…

About thirty years ago we looked for "minimal assumptions" on the data which guarantee that solutions to the $\,2-D\,$ evolution Euler equations in a bounded domain are classical. Classical means here that all the derivatives appearing in…

Lindsay and Basak (2000) posed the question of how far from normality could a distribution be if it matches $k$ normal moments. They provided a bound on the maximal difference in c.d.f.'s, and implied that these bounds were attained. It…
