We show that certain determinantal functions of multiple matrices, when summed over the symmetries of the cube, decompose into functions of the original matrices. These are shown to be true in complete generality; that is, no properties of…

The main aim of the paper is to present a general version of the Fourier Tauberian theorem for monotone functions. This result, together with Berezin's inequality, allows us to obtain a refined version the Li-Yau estimate for the counting…

We consider non oscillatory functions and prove an everywhere Fourier Inversion Theorem for functions of very moderate decrease. The proofs rely on some ideas in nonstandard analysis.

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\widehat{G}$ denote its dual group, equipped with a Haar measure. A variant of the uncertainty principle states that for any $S \subset G$ and $\Sigma \subset \widehat{G}$, there exists a…

We prove an analogue of Chebyshev's alternation theorem for linearly independent discrete functions $\Phi_n=\{\varphi_k\}_{k=1}^n$ on the interval $[0,q]_{\mathbb{Z}}=[0,q]\cap \mathbb{Z}$. In particular, we establish that the polynomial of…

We prove an optimal bound in twelve dimensions for the uncertainty principle of Bourgain, Clozel, and Kahane. Suppose $f \colon \mathbb{R}^{12} \to \mathbb{R}$ is an integrable function that is not identically zero. Normalize its Fourier…

We begin by showing that commensurators of Zariski dense subgroups of isometry groups of symmetric spaces of non-compact type are discrete provided that the limit set on the Furstenberg boundary is not invariant under the action of a…

The discrete Fourier transform of the greatest common divisor is a multiplicative function, if taken with respect to the same order of the primitive root of unity, which is a well known fact. As such, the transform can be expressed in the…

We prove that every continuous function on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space X can be uniformly approximated by smooth functions with no critical points. This kind of result can be regarded as a sort of very strong approximate…

A classical result due to Paley and Wiener characterizes the existence of a non-zero function in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$, supported on a half line, in terms of the decay of its Fourier transform. In this paper we prove an analogue of this result…

A version of the Uncertainty Principle says: There does not exist a non zero function in $L_p(\mathbb{R}^d)$ if its Fourier transform is supported by a set of finite $\alpha$-Hausdorff measure with $\alpha<2d/p$. This UP does not hold at…

Under Wigdersons' framework and by sorting out the technical points in the recent works of Tang (J. Fourier Anal. Appl. 31 (2025)) and Dias-Luef-Prata (J. Math. Pures Appl. (9) 198 (2025)), we prove an abstract uncertainty principle for…

We provide an elementary proof of an asymptotic formula for prime counting functions. As a minor application we give a new reduction of the proof of Chebotar\"ev's density theorem to the cyclic case.

We extend a higher-order sum rule proved by B. Simon to matrix valued measures on the unit circle and their matrix Verblunsky coefficients.

We provide an action for gauge theories discretized on simplicial meshes, inspired by finite element methods. The action is discretely gauge invariant and we give a proof of consistency. A discrete Noether's theorem that can be applied to…

The Fourier series of continuous functions of constant absolute value have interesting properties : according to the main theorems of the article, if the coefficients with positive indexes are square-summable with respect to a certain…

Given a narrow signal over the real line, there is a limit to the localisation of its Fourier transform. In spaces of prime dimensions, Tao derived a sharp state-independent uncertainty relation which holds for the support sizes of a pure…

For the $N$-dimensional Fourier matrix $\mathcal{F}_N$, we prove that if $N\geq 4$ is square-free, then every $2 \times 2$ and $3\times 3$ principal minor of $\mathcal{F}_N$ is nonzero. We also show that if $N\geq 4$ is not square-free,…

For any $k\geq 1$, this paper studies the number of polynomials having $k$ irreducible factors (counted with or without multiplicities) in $\mathbf{F}_q[t]$ among different arithmetic progressions. We obtain asymptotic formulas for the…

Although continuous symmetries may be more appealing, especially the local gauge ones, I argue that discrete symmetries may still play a fundamental role in shaping our understanding of the physics beyond the Standard Model. I exemplify…
