We denote by $P^+(n)$ the largest prime factor of the integer $n$. In 1935, Erd\H os studied the quantity $T_c(x)$ defined by $$ T_c(x)=\big|\big\{p\le x: P^+(p-1)\ge p^c\big\}\big|, $$ and he proved $$ \limsup_{x\rightarrow…

We determine the asymptotic behavior of the $l_{p}$-norms of the sequence of Taylor coefficients of $b^{n}$, where $b=\frac{z-\lambda}{1-\bar{\lambda}z}$ is an automorphism of the unit disk, $p\in[1,\infty]$, and $n$ is large. It is known…

Let $\{Z_t, t\geq 0\}$ be a strictly stable process on $\R$ with index $\alpha\in (0,2]$. We prove that for every $p > \alpha$, there exists $\gamma = \gamma (\alpha, p)$ and $\k = \k (\alpha, p)\in (0, +\infty)$ such that…

Let K be a complete discretely valued field with residue field k. If char(K) = 0, char(k) = 2 and the 2-rank of k is d, we prove that there exists an integer N depending on d such that the u-invariant of any function field in one variable…

For a set of primes $\mathcal{P}$, let $\Psi(x, \mathcal{P})$ be the number of positive integers $n \leq x$ all of whose prime factors lie in $\mathcal{P}$. In this paper we classify the sets of primes $\mathcal{P}$ such that $\Psi(x,…

We establish the following converse of the well-known inverse function theorem. Let $g:U\to V$ and $f:V\to U$ be inverse homeomorphisms between open subsets of Banach spaces. If $g$ is differentiable of class $C^p$ and $f$ if locally…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $c>0$ with the following property: if $Z/pZ$ denotes the group of prime order $p$, and a subset $A\subset Z/pZ$ satisfies $1<|A|<p/2$, then for any positive integer…

Let $\chi$ be an order $c$ multiplicative character of a finite field and $f(x)=x^d+\lambda x^e$ a binomial with $(d,e)=1$. We study the twisted classical and $T$-adic Newton polygons of $f$. When $p>(d-e)(2d-1)$, we give a lower bound of…

A result of the author shows that the behavior of Gowers norms on bounded exponent abelian groups is connected to finite nilspaces. Motivated by this, we investigate the structure of finite nilspaces. As an application we prove inverse…

This paper describes a new link between combinatorial number theory and geometry. The main result states that A is a finite set of relatively prime positive integers if and only if A = (K-K) \cap N, where K is a compact set of real numbers…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $f: k[x,y] \to k[x,y]$, $f: (x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$, be a $k$-algebra endomorphism having an invertible Jacobian. Write $p=a_ny^n+\cdots+a_1y+a_0$, where $n=deg_y(p) \in \mathbb{N}$, $a_i \in…

For each of the functions $f \in \{\phi, \sigma, \omega, \tau\}$ and every natural number $k$, we show that there are infinitely many solutions to the inequalities $f(p_n-1) < f(p_{n+1}-1) < \dots < f(p_{n+k}-1)$, and similarly for…

For odd primes $p$, we let $K_p:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p)$ be the $p$th cyclotomic field and let $\omega$ denote its Teichmuller character. For $\alpha>1/2$, we say that an odd prime $p$ is partially regular if the eigenspaces of the $p$-Sylow…

A composite positive integer $n$ has the Lehmer property if $\phi(n)$ divides $n-1,$ where $\phi$ is an Euler totient function. In this note we shall prove that if $n$ has the Lehmer property, then $n\leq 2^{2^{K}}-2^{2^{K-1}}$, where $K$…
