As density functional theory conventionally assumes that the density of a chosen model system (e.g., the Kohn-Sham system) is the same as the exact one, one might expect that approximations to the exact density introduce supplementary…

For over three decades, the pursuit of perfect periodic autocorrelation sequences has been constrained by Mow's conjecture, which posits that no perfect sequence over an $n$-phase alphabet can exist with a length greater than $n^2$. While a…

The entanglement entropy of a subsystem $A$ of a quantum system is expressed, in the replica method, through analytic continuation with respect to n of the trace of the n-th power of the reduced density matrix $\tr\rho_A^n$. We study the…

Pairs of binary sequences formed using linear combinations of multiplicative characters of finite fields are exhibited that, when compared to random sequence pairs, simultaneously achieve significantly lower mean square autocorrelation…

An important result of H. Weyl states that for every sequence $\left(a_{n}\right)_{n\geq 1}$ of distinct positive integers the sequence of fractional parts of $\left(a_{n} \alpha \right)_{n \geq1}$ is uniformly distributed modulo one for…

Z. Rudnick and P. Sarnak have proved that the pair correlation for the fractional parts of $n^2 \alpha$ is Poissonian for almost all $\alpha$. However, they were not able to find a specific $\alpha$ for which it holds. We show that the…

Given a monotonically decreasing $\psi: \mathbb{N} \to [0,\infty)$, Khintchine's Theorem provides an efficient tool to decide whether, for almost every $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$, there are infinitely many $(p,q) \in \mathbb{Z}^2$ such that…

The set A = {a_n} of nonnegative integers is an asymptotic basis of order h if every sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of h elements of A. If a_n ~ alpha n^h for some real number alpha > 0, then alpha is called an…

We consider the one-parameter family of interval maps arising from generalized continued fraction expansions known as alpha-continued fractions. For such maps, we perform a numerical study of the behaviour of metric entropy as a function of…

By using properties of Markov homogeneous chains and Banach measure in $\mathrm{N}$, it is proved that a relative frequency of even numbers in the sequence of $n$-th coordinates of all Collatz sequences is equal to the number…

We study non-stationary averaging processes, where each term of a sequence is a weighted average of previous terms, namely $a_{n+1} = \sum_{j=1}^n p_n(j) a_j$. Our results extend classical theory in two distinct regimes. First, we prove a…

In twisted Diophantine approximation, for a fixed $m\times n$ matrix $\boldsymbol\alpha$ one is interested in sets of vectors $\boldsymbol\beta\in\mathbb R^m$ such that the system of affine forms $\mathbb R^n \ni \mathbf q \mapsto…

The on-line nearest-neighbour graph on a sequence of $n$ uniform random points in $(0,1)^d$ ($d \in \N$) joins each point after the first to its nearest neighbour amongst its predecessors. For the total power-weighted edge-length of this…

We develop the theory of Diophantine approximation for systems of simultaneously small linear forms, which coefficients are drawn from any given analytic non-degenerate manifolds. This setup originates from a problem of Sprind\v{z}uk from…

We consider the asymptotics of the correlation functions of the characteristic polynomials of the hermitian Wigner matrices $H_n=n^{-1/2}W_n$. We show that for the correlation function of any even order the asymptotic coincides with this…

It is known, since the 70's, that the large N 't Hooft limit of gauge theories is related to string theories. In 1998, J. M. Maldacena identified precisely such a relation: the so-called AdS/CFT correspondence which speculates a duality…

Let $\cS_n(\psi_1,...,\psi_n)$ denote the set of simultaneously $(\psi_1,...,\psi_n)$--approximable points in $\R^n$ and $\cSM_n(\psi)$ denote the set of multiplicatively $\psi$--approximable points in $\R^n$. Let $\cM$ be a manifold in…

The maximum correlation of functions of a pair of random variables is an important measure of stochastic dependence. It is known that this maximum nonlinear correlation is identical to the absolute value of the Pearson correlation for a…

We show the existence of $n$-complements for generalized pairs with additional Diophantine approximation properties when the coefficients of boundaries belong to a DCC set.

The pair correlation statistic is an important concept in real uniform distribution theory. Therefore, sequences in the unit interval with (weak) Poissonian pair correlations have attracted a lot of attention in recent time. The aim of this…
