Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be a non-CM elliptic curve. Assuming GRH, we prove that, for a set of primes $p$ of density $1$, the absolute discriminant of the $\mathbb{F}_p$-endomorphism ring of the reduction of $E$ modulo $p$ is close to maximal.
We study the effect of a splitting operator S_t on the L^p norm of the Fourier transform of a function f and on the operator norm of a Fourier multiplier m. Most of our results assume p is an even integer, and are often stronger when f or m…
We give improved and almost optimal testers for several classes of Boolean functions on $n$ inputs that have concise representation in the uniform and distribution-free model. Classes, such as $k$-junta, $k$-linear functions, $s$-term DNF,…
Let $f$ be an $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear function over $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$. If the $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspace $U= \{ (x^{q^t}, f(x)) : x\in \mathbb{F}_{q^n} \}$ defines a maximum scattered linear set, then we call $f$ a scattered polynomial of index…
In this paper we solve an open problem concerning the characterization of those measurable sets $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{2d}$ that, among all sets having a prescribed Lebesgue measure, can trap the largest possible energy fraction in…

Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…
We consider an extremum problem posed by Turan. The aim of this problem is to find a maximum mean value of 1-periodic continuous even function such that sum of Fourier coefficient modules for this function is equal to 1 and support of this…
We study the problem of maximizing a function that is approximately submodular under a cardinality constraint. Approximate submodularity implicitly appears in a wide range of applications as in many cases errors in evaluation of a…
We revisit the Karagiannidis-Lioumpas (KL) approximation of the Q-function by optimizing its coefficients in terms of absolute error, relative error and total error. For minimizing the maximum absolute/relative error, we describe the…
A landmark result from rational approximation theory states that $x^{1/p}$ on $[0,1]$ can be approximated by a type-$(n,n)$ rational function with root-exponential accuracy. Motivated by the recursive optimality property of Zolotarev…
We examine how closely a multiplicative function resembles an additive function. Given a multiplicative function $g$ and an additive function $f$, we examine the size of the quantity $E(f,g;x)=\# \{n\leq x:f(n)=g(n)\}$. We establish a lower…
We obtain order estimates of approximation of functions from the classes $S^{\Omega}_{p,\theta}B (\mathbb{R}^d)$ in the space $L_q(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $1<p<q<\infty$, by entire functions of exponential type with supports of their Fourier…
The Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm can be applied to search problems on graphs with a cost function that is a sum of terms corresponding to the edges. When conjugating an edge term, the QAOA unitary at depth p produces an…
Given any real numbers $1<p<q$, we study the norm ratio (i.e. the ratio between the $q$-norm and the $p$-norm) of marginals of centered convex bodies. We first show that some marginal of the simplex maximizes said ratio in the class of…
We provide an introduction of some basic facts of uniformly almost periodic functions, such as Fourier series representations. A result is then proved about Fourier coefficients which is a generalization of the purely periodic case. We then…

We consider a variant of a question of N. Koblitz. For an elliptic curve $E/\Q$ which is not $\Q$-isogenous to an elliptic curve with torsion, Koblitz has conjectured that there exists infinitely many primes $p$ such that…
