Given a finite alphabet $\mathbb{A}$ and a primitive substitution $\theta:\mathbb{A}\to\mathbb{A}^\lambda$ (of constant length $\lambda$), let $(X_\theta,S)$ denote the corresponding dynamical system, where $X_{\theta}$ is the closure of…
We use a non-linear characterization of orthonormal polynomials due to Saff in order to show that the behavior of orthonormal polynomials is determined only by its leading coefficient and its normalization. Several applications of this…
$q$-analogs of sum equals integral relations $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}f(n)=\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)dx$ for sinc functions and binomial coefficients are studied. Such analogs are already known in the context of $q$-hypergeometric series. This…
Kanade explored the construction of modular companions to $q$-series identities, using the asymptotics of Nahm sums, and Mizuno [Ramanujan J.\ {\bf 66} (2025), Paper No.\ 62, 31] recently obtained a generalization of Kanade's asymptotic…
Diagonalization of a certain operator in irreducible representations of the positive discrete series of the quantum algebra U_q(su(1,1)) is studied. Spectrum and eigenfunctions of this operator are found in an explicit form. These…
Let $f\colon \mathbb{T}\to \mathbb{R}$ be of class $C^{1+\delta}$ for some $\delta>0$ and let $c\in\mathbb{Z}$. We show that for a generic $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$, the extension $T_{c,f}\colon \mathbb{T}^2\to\mathbb{T}^2$ of the irrational…
It is a folklore conjecture that the M\"obius function exhibits cancellation on shifted primes; that is, $\sum_{p\le X}\mu(p+h) \ = \ o(\pi(X))$ as $X\to\infty$ for any fixed shift $h>0$. This appears in print at least since Hildebrand in…
Using the stratifications of Deligne-Mumford moduli spaces $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$ indexed by stable graphs, we introduce a partially ordered set of stable graphs by defining a partial ordering on the set of connected stable graphs of…
We investigate the sums $\sum_{n\le X, (n,q)=1}\frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}\log^k\left(\frac{X}{n}\right)$, where $k\in\{0,1\}$, $s\in\mathbb{C}$, $\Re s>0$. Our goal is to obtain explicit asymptotic estimations for these quantities. To achieve this,…
Let $(X,\nu,T)$ be a measure-preserving system, and let $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ be polynomials with integer coefficients. We prove that, for any $f_1,\ldots, f_k\in L^{\infty}(X)$, the M\"obius-weighted polynomial multiple ergodic averages…
The main result of the paper is a construction of a five-parameter family of new bases in the algebra of symmetric functions. These bases are inhomogeneous and share many properties of systems of orthogonal polynomials on an interval of the…
We prove that any $q$-automatic completely multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character. This answers a question of J. P. Allouche and L. Goldmakher and confirms a conjecture of J.…
We extend the study of the square-free flow, recently introduced by Sarnak, to the more general context of B-free integers, that is to say integers with no factor in a given family B of pairwise relatively prime integers, the sum of whose…
We study the numbers of involutions and their relation to Frobenius-Schur indicators in the groups $\mathrm{SO}^{\pm}(n,q)$ and $\Omega^{\pm}(n,q)$. Our point of view for this study comes from two motivations. The first is the conjecture…
The quantum integer [n]_q is the polynomial 1 + q + q^2 + ... + q^{n-1}, and the sequence of polynomials { [n]_q }_{n=1}^{\infty} is a solution of the functional equation f_{mn}(q) = f_m(q)f_n(q^m). In this paper, semidirect products of…
This paper is the second part of a two-part article where we generalize Sarnak's program to sets where we remove congruence classes modulo some infinite set $\mathcal{B}$ of ideals of an \'etale $\mathbb{Q}-$algebra $K$, which we denote by…
The auto-correlations of arithmetic functions, such as the von Mangoldt function, the M\"obius function and the divisor function, are the subject of classical problems in analytic number theory. The function field analogues of these…
Using elementary means, we prove several identities involving the M\"obius function, generalizing in the multidimensional case well-known formulas coming from convolution arguments.
In a recent paper G. Bhatnagar has given simple proofs of some of Ramanujan's continued fractions. In this note we show that some variants of these continued fractions are generating functions of q-Schroeder-like numbers.
We prove a structural result for measure preserving systems naturally associated with any finite collection of multiplicative functions that take values on the complex unit disc. We show that these systems have no irrational spectrum and…
