We show that for any $\varepsilon > 0$, prime $q$ sufficiently large with respect to $1 / \varepsilon$ and residue class $(a,q) = 1$, there exist two integers $m, n \leq q^{5/2 + \varepsilon}$ with $m \equiv n \equiv a \pmod{q}$ such that…

For completely multiplicative functions f(n) taking values 1 and -1, under certain conditions on f(n) we show that f(n) changes sign at least x exp(-7(log log x)sqrt(log x)) times as n runs through the integers <= x.

Let $A_f(1,n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(3)$ Maass cusp form $f$ and let $a_g(n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(2)$ cusp form $g$. Let $\lambda(n)$ be either $A_f(1,n)$ or the triple divisor function…

Let $V(T)$ denote the number of sign changes in $\psi(x) - x$ for $x\in[1, T]$. We show that $\liminf_{\;T\rightarrow\infty} V(T)/\log T \geq \gamma_{1}/\pi + 1.867\cdot 10^{-30}$, where $\gamma_{1} = 14.13\ldots$ denotes the ordinate of…

We show that $A_2(7,4) \leq 388$ and, more generally, $A_q(7,4) \leq (q^2-q+1)[7]_q + q^4 - 2q^3 + 3q^2 - 4q + 4$ by semidefinite programming for $q \leq 101$. Furthermore, we extend results by Bachoc et al. on SDP bounds for $A_2(n,d)$,…

On a smooth, closed Riemannian manifold $\left(M,g\right)$ of dimension $n\ge3$, we consider the stationary Schr\"odinger equation $\Delta_gu+h_0u=\left|u\right|^{2^*-2}u$, where $\Delta_g:=-\text{div}_g\nabla$, $h_0\in C^1\left(M\right)$…

We consider covariance asymptotics for linear statistics of general stationary random measures in terms of their truncated pair correlation measure. We give exact infinite series-expansion formulas for covariance of smooth statistics of…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem. Our main results are the asymptotic formulas $$ \int_1^X \Delta^3(x){\rm d}x = BX^{7/4} + O_\epsilon(X^{\beta+\epsilon}) \qquad(B > 0) $$ and $$ \int_1^X…

Unconditionally, we prove the Iwaniec-Sarnak conjecture for $L^4$-norms of the Hecke-Maass cusp forms. From this result, we can justify that for even Maass cusp form $\phi$ with the eigenvalue $\lambda_{\phi}=\frac{1}{4}+t_{\phi}^2$, for…

We consider an anisotropic $(p,2)$-equation, with a parametric and superlinear reaction term. We show that for all small values of the parameter the problem has at least five nontrivial smooth solutions, four with constant sign and the…

The Gross Llewellyn Smith sum rule has been measured at different values of four-momentum transfer squared ($Q^{2}$) by combining the precise CCFR neutrino data with data from other deep-inelastic scattering experiments at lower values of…

Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $\gamma$ denote Euler's constant and $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote…

We prove that the dimension of the $\mathbb{Q}$-linear span of $1,\zeta(3),\zeta(5),\ldots,\zeta(s-1)$ is at least $(1.119 \cdot \log s)/(1+\log 2)$ for any sufficiently large even integer $s$. This slightly refines a well-known result of…

The presence of large partial quotients can invalidate many classical limit theorems in the metric theory of continued fractions. A commonly employed strategy to overcome this problem is to discard the largest partial quotient when…

This paper generalizes the results of [13] and then provides an interesting example. We construct a family of $W$-like maps $\{W_a\}$ with a turning fixed point having slope $s_1$ on one side and $-s_2$ on the other. Each $W_a$ has an…

In this paper, we prove the following inequality: for any $x, y>0$, there holds $$\big|x\sin\frac{1}{x} - y\sin\frac{1}{y} \big| \leq \sqrt{2|x - y|}.$$

In this paper we prove the existence of infinitely many nontrivial solutions of the following equations driven by a nonlocal integro-differential operator $L_K$ with concave-convex nonlinearities and homogeneous Dirichlet boundary…

We show that there is a permutation $f$ of the positive integers such that for $n \geq 2,$ l.c.m.$(f(n), f(n+1)) \leq cn(\log n)^2,$ where $c$ is a positive constant. It improves previous results of Erd\"os, Freud and Hegyvari (1983), and…

Due to the increasing recording capability, functional data analysis has become an important research topic. For functional data the study of outlier detection and/or the development of robust statistical procedures has started recently.…
