In this paper, given a topological space $X$, an interval $I\subseteq {\bf R}$ and five continuous functions $\varphi, \psi, \omega :X\to {\bf R}$, $\alpha, \beta:I\to {\bf R}$, we are interested in the infimum of the function $\Phi:X\to…

This paper deals with coefficient estimates for close-to-convex functions with argument $\beta$ ($-\pi/2<\beta<\pi/2$). By using Herglotz representation formula, sharp bounds of coefficients are obtained. In particluar, we solve the problem…

In this paper we establish lower bounds on several expressions dependent on functions $\varphi(n)$, $\psi(n)$ and $\sigma(n)$.

We obtain upper bounds on the number of finite sets $\mathcal S$ of primes below a given bound for which various $2$ variable $\mathcal S$-unit equations have a solution.

We obtain approximation results for general positive linear operators satisfying mild conditions, when acting on discontinuous functions and absolutely continuous functions having discontinuous derivatives. The upper bounds, given in terms…

We prove that if $x$ is large enough, namely $x\ge x_0$, then there exists a prime between $x(1- \Delta^{-1})$ and $x$, where $\Delta$ is an effective constant computed in terms of $x_0$. This improves some previous results of Ramar\'e and…

We continue our examination the effects of certain hypothetical configurations of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions lying off the critical line ("barriers") on the relative magnitude of the functions $\pi_{q,a}(x)$. Here $\pi_{q,a}(x)$ is…

We derive a stronger uniqueness result if a function with compact support and its truncated Hilbert transform are known on the same interval by using the Sokhotski-Plemelj formulas. To find a function from its truncated Hilbert transform,…

Recently, $(\beta,\gamma)$-Chebyshev functions, as well as the corresponding zeros, have been introduced as a generalization of classical Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind and related roots. They consist of a family of orthogonal…

Convex functions have played a major role in the field of Mathematical inequalities. In this paper, we introduce a new concept related to convexity, which proves better estimates when the function is somehow more convex than another. In…

In this note we prove optimal inequalities for bounded functions in terms of their deviation from their mean. These results extend and generalize some known inequalities due to Thong (2011) and Perfetti (2011)

We study arithmetic functions $\Phi(x;d,a)$, called prime running functions, whose value at $x$ sums the gaps between primes $p_k \equiv a\ (\text{mod}\ d)$ below $x$ and the next following prime $p_{k+1}$, up to $x$. (The following prime…

It is shown that the Mean Value Theorem for arithmetic functions, and simple properties of the zeta function are sufficient to assemble proofs of the Prime Number Theorem, and Dirichlet Theorem. These are among the simplest proofs of the…

In this paper we propose an algorithm that correctly discards a set of numbers (from a previously defined sieve) with an interval of integers. Leopoldo's Theorem states that the remaining integer numbers will generate and count the complete…

In this paper we present some observations about the well-known Goldbach conjecture. In particular we list and interpret some numerical results which allow us to formulate a relation between prime numbers and even integers. We can also…

In this work, several sharp bounds for the \v{C}eby\v{s}ev functional involving various type of functions are proved. In particular, for the \v{C}eby\v{s}ev functional of two absolutely continuous functions whose first derivatives are both…

We furnish an explicit bound for the prime number theorem in short intervals on the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis.

This paper concerns the estimation of sums of functions of observable and unobservable variables. Lower bounds for the asymptotic variance and a convolution theorem are derived in general finite- and infinite-dimensional models. An explicit…

We study function estimation in the empirical Bayes setting for Poisson and normal means. Specifically, given observations $Y_i\sim f(\cdot; \theta_i)$ with latent parameters $\theta_i\sim \pi$, the goal is to estimate…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper and lower bounds with explicit main terms for $\log{\left|\cL(s)\right|}$ for $\sigma \in (1/2,1)$ and for functions in the Selberg class. In particular, we focus on the…
