We show that any weighted geometric mean of Chebyshev polynomials is bounded from above by another Chebyshev polynomial. We also study a related homogeneous cyclic inequality $$ \left (\sum_{i=1}^n x_i^{(a+b+1)/2} \right )^2 \geq…

We consider random polynomials of the form $G_n(z):= \sum_{|\alpha|\leq n} \xi^{(n)}_{\alpha}p_{n,\alpha}(z)$ where $\{\xi^{(n)}_{\alpha}\}_{|\alpha|\leq n}$ are i.i.d. (complex) random variables and $\{p_{n,\alpha}\}_{|\alpha|\leq n}$ form…

The aim of this paper is to describe the inversion of the sum $\sum_{n\geq 0}a^nb^n$ where $a$ and $b$ are non-commuting variables as a formal series in $a$ and $b$. We show that the inversion satisfies a non-commutative quadratic equation…

This paper is inspired by the work of J. S\'{a}ndor in 2006. In the paper, the authors establish some double inequalities involving the ratio $ \frac{\Gamma_{q}(x+1)}{ \Gamma_{q} \left( x+\frac{1}{2}\right)}$, where $\Gamma_{q}(x)$ is the…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a complex semisimple Lie algebra. We obtain new properties of the $q$-analogue of weight multiplicities in finite-dimensional representations of $\mathfrak g$. In particular, it is proved that certain weighted sum of…

Let $f(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n!}q^{n(n-1)/2}x^n$ ($0<q<1$) be the deformed exponential function. It is known that the zeros of $f(x)$ are real and form a negative decreasing sequence $(x_k)$ ($k\ge 1$). We investigate the complete…

We prove some refinements of a reverse AM-GM operator inequality due to M. Lin [Studia Math. 2013;215:187-194]. In particular, we show the operator inequality \begin{eqnarray*} \Phi^p\left(A\nabla_\nu B+2rMm(A^{-1}\nabla B^{-1}-A^{-1}\sharp…

For $(M,a)=1$, put \begin{equation*} G(X;M,a)=\sup_{p^\prime_n\leq X}(p^\prime_{n+1}-p^\prime_n), \end{equation*} where $p^\prime_n$ denotes the $n$-th prime that is congruent to $a\pmod{M}$. We show that for any positive $C$, provided $X$…

We will show in this paper that if $\lambda$ is very close to 1, then $$I(M,\lambda,m)= \sup_{u\in H^{1,n}_0(M) ,\int_M|\nabla u|^ndV=1}\int_\Omega (e^{\alpha_n |u|^\frac{n}{n-1}}-\lambda\sum\limits_{k=1}^m\frac{|\alpha_nu^\frac{n}{n-1}|^k}…

In this paper we construct the $q$-analogue of Barnes's Bernoulli numbers and polynomials of degree 2, for positive even integers, which is an answer to a part of Schlosser's question. For positive odd integers, Schlosser's question is…

The $L^q$ norm of a Dirichlet polynomial $F(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{N} a_n n^{-s}$ is defined as \[\| F\|_q:=(\lim_{T\to\infty}\frac{1}{T}\int_{0}^T |F(it)|^qdt)^{1/q}\] for $0<q<\infty$. It is shown that \[ (\sum_{n=1}^{N}…

The long-standing Gaussian product inequality (GPI) conjecture states that $E [\prod_{j=1}^{n}|X_j|^{\alpha_j}]\geq\prod_{j=1}^{n}E[|X_j|^{\alpha_j}]$ for any centered Gaussian random vector $(X_1,\dots,X_n)$ and any non-negative real…

It is well-known that if a real valued function acting on a convex set satisfies the $n$-variable Jensen inequality, for some natural number $n\geq 2$, then, for all $k\in\{1,\dots, n\}$, it fulfills the $k$-variable Jensen inequality as…

We consider a $q$-analog $r_2(n, q)$ of the number of representations of an integer as a sum of two squares $r_2(n)$. This $q$-analog is generated by the expansion of a product that was studied by Kronecker and Jordan. We generalize…

In this paper, we generalize some matrix inequalities involving matrix power and Karcher means of positive definite matrices. Among other inequalities, it is shown that if ${\mathbb A}=(A_{1},...,A_{n})$ is a $n$-tuple of positive definite…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $m$ be an even positive integer, and $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q = p^m$ elements. In this paper, we compute the number of solutions with all coordinates in $\mathbb{F}_q^*$ for diagonal equations of…

We prove the \emph{sum of squared logarithms inequality} (SSLI) which states that for nonnegative vectors $x, y \in \mathbb{R}^n$ whose elementary symmetric polynomials satisfy $e_k(x)\le e_k(y)$ (for $1\le k < n$) and $e_n(x)=e_n(y)$, the…

In recent years the question of maximizing GCD sums regained interest due to its firm link with large values of $L$-functions. In the present paper we initiate the study of minimizing for positive weights~$w$ of normalized $L^1$- norm the…
