We show that if an essentially arbitrary sequence supported on an interval containing $x$ integers, is convolved with a tiny Siegel-Walfisz-type sequence supported on an interval containing $\exp((\log x)^{\varepsilon})$ integers then the…

We establish improved bounds for bilinear forms with Kloosterman fractions of the form ${\sum\sum}_{m,n} \alpha_m \beta_n e(a\overline{m}/(bn))$ with $M<m\le 2M$, $N < n \le 2N$ and $(m,n)=1$. Our approach works directly with arbitrary…

Let $\varepsilon>0$. We construct an explicit, full-measure set of $\alpha \in[0,1]$ such that if $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}$ then, for almost all $\beta \in[0,1]$, if $\delta \in \mathbb{R}$ then there are infinitely many integers $n\geq 1$…

In this paper, we improve on Fouvry and Radziwi{\l}{\l}'s results on unbalanced convolutions. In particular, we find that if $(\alpha_m)$ and $(\beta_n)$ are sequences supported on $m\sim M$ and $n\sim M$ where $\beta$ is equidistributed…

For each positive integer $m$ and each real finite dimensional Banach space $X$, we set $\beta(X,m)$ to be the infimum of $\delta\in (0,1]$ such that each set $A\subset X$ having diameter $1$ can be represented as the union of $m$ subsets…

We give new bounds for $\sum_{{a, m ,n}}\alpha_{m}\beta_n\nu_a {\textrm e}\left(\frac{a\overline m}{n}\right)$ where $\alpha_{m}$, $\beta_n$ and $\nu_a$ are arbitrary coefficients, improving upon a result of Duke, Friedlander and Iwaniec…

In a work of Heath-Brown, it is proved that in the Pilz divisor problem, the normalized error term $\Delta_3(x)$ has a distribution function. In this paper, we prove an analogue of this result in the setting of GL(3). For a given self-dual…

We prove new variants of the Lambert series factorization theorems studied by Merca and Schmidt (2017) which correspond to a more general class of Lambert series expansions of the form $L_a(\alpha, \beta, q) := \sum_{n \geq 1} a_n q^{\alpha…

A pair of probability distributions over $\{0,1\}^n$ is said to be $(k,\delta)$-wise indistinguishable if all of the size $k$ marginals are within statistical distance at most $\delta$. Previous works introduced this concept and study when…

We study the function $\Delta_k(x):=\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n) - \mbox{Res}_{s=1} ( \zeta^k(s) x^s/s )$, where $k\geq 3$ is an integer, $d_k(n)$ is the $k$-fold divisor function, and $\zeta(s)$ is the Riemann zeta-function. For a large parameter…

Let $q$ be an integer $\geq 2$ and let $S_q(n)$ denote the sum of digits of $n$ in base $q$. For \[ \alpha=[0;\overline{1,m}],\ m\geq 2, \] let $S_{\alpha}(n)$ denote the sum of digits in the Ostrowski $\alpha$-representation of $n$. Let…

Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function. Several…

Let the base $\beta$ be a complex number, $|\beta|>1$, and let $A \subset \C$ be a finite alphabet of digits. The \emph{$A$-spectrum} of $\beta$ is the set $S_{A}(\beta) = \{\sum_{k=0}^n a_k\beta^k \mid n \in \mathbb{N}, \ a_k \in {A}\}$.…

This article derives several properties of the Riesz distributions, such as their corresponding Bartlett decompositions, the inverse Riesz distributions and the distribution of the generalised variance for real normed division algebras. In…

For $\delta>0$ sufficiently small and $A\subset \mathbb{Z}^k$ with $|A+A|\le (2^k+\delta)|A|$, we show either $A$ is covered by $m_k(\delta)$ parallel hyperplanes, or satisfies $|\widehat{\operatorname{co}}(A)\setminus A|\le c_k\delta |A|$,…

In this paper, we apply the Dirichlet convolution method to \begin{equation*} T_{k}(x)=\sum_{n \leq x} d_{k}(n), \end{equation*} for $k\ge 3$, where $d_{k}(n)$ is the number of ways to represent $n$ as a product of $k$ positive integer…

Statistical inference in high-dimensional settings is challenging when standard unregularized methods are employed. In this work, we focus on the case of multiple correlated proportions for which we develop a Bayesian inference framework.…

Rubin's generalized Minkowski--Funk transforms $M_t^\alpha$ on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ give rise, for irrational radii $t=\cos(\beta\pi)$, to a small denominator problem governed by the asymptotic behavior of their spectral multipliers.…

Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a projective klt pair of dimension $2$ and let $L$ be a nef $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$ such that $K_X + \Delta + L$ is nef. As a complement to the Generalized Abundance Conjecture by Lazi\'c and Peternell, we prove…

We generalise the known fact that for binomial $X_{n,k} \sim \mathrm{Bin}(n, k/n)$ one has $\inf_{k>1,n} \mathrm{P}(X_{n,k} \geq k) \geq \lim_{k \to 1+}\mathrm{P}(X_{2,k} \geq k) = 1/4$ to cover probabilities of exceeding a constant shift…
