Each irreducible fraction $p/q>0$ corresponds to a primitive vector $(p,q)\in\mathbb Z^2$ with positive coordinates. Such a vector $(p,q)$ can be uniquely written as the sum of two primitive vectors $(a,b),(c,d)\in\mathbb Z_{\geq 0}^2$…

Let $\delta > 1/2$. We prove that if $A$ is a subset of the primes such that the relative density of $A$ in every reduced residue class is at least $\delta$, then almost all even integers can be written as the sum of two primes in $A$. The…

In a recent letter, new representations were proposed for the pair of sequences ($\gamma,\delta$), as defined formally by Bailey in his famous lemma. Here we extend and prove this result, providing pairs ($\gamma,\delta$) labelled by the…

This article relaxes the integrability condition imposed in the literature for the robust $\alpha$-stable central limit theorem under sublinear expectation. Specifically, for $\alpha \in(0,1]$, we prove that the normalized sums of i.i.d.…

Let \K denote a field and let V denote a vector space over \K with finite positive dimension. We consider an ordered pair of linear transformations A:V\to V and A*:V \to V that satisfy the following four conditions: (i) Each of A,A* is…

For the shifted convolution sum $$ D_h(X)=\sum_{m=1}^\infty\lambda_1(1,m)\lambda_2(m+h)V(\frac{m}{X}) $$ where $\lambda_1(1,m)$ are the Fourier coefficients of a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ Maass form $\pi_1$, and $\lambda_2(m)$ are those of a…

A set A of integers is said to be sum-free if there are no solutions to the equation x + y = z with x,y and z all in A. Answering a question of Cameron and Erdos, we show that the number of sum-free subsets of {1,...,N} is O(2^(N/2)).

We construct a uniformly discrete, and even sparse, sequence of real numbers $\Lambda=\{\lambda_n\}$ and a function g in $L^2(R)$, such that for every q>2, every function f in $L^2(R)$ can be approximated with arbitrary small error by a…

A new upper bound is given for the dimension of the space of holomorphic cusp forms of weight one and prime level $q$: $$ \hbox{dim}\, S_1(q) << q^{11/12} \log^4{q} $$ with an absolute implied constant.

We consider the change point testing problem for high-dimensional time series. Unlike conventional approaches, where one tests whether the difference $\delta$ of the mean vectors before and after the change point is equal to zero, we argue…

We consider the nonlinear equation $-\frac{1}{m}=z+Sm$ with a parameter $z$ in the complex upper half plane $\mathbb{H} $, where $S$ is a positivity preserving symmetric linear operator acting on bounded functions. The solution with values…

A new local, covariant ``counter-term'' is used to construct a variational principle for asymptotically flat spacetimes in any spacetime dimension $ d \ge 4$. The new counter-term makes direct contact with more familiar background…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple simply connected Lie group with a compact Cartan subgroup and let $\Gamma$ be a uniform lattice in $G$. Let $\widehat{G}_d$ denote the set of equivalence classes of unitary discrete series representations…

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 $D$ be a set of positive integers. A $D$-diffsequence of length $k$ is a sequence of positive integers $a_1 < \cdots < a_k$ such that $a_{i+1}-a_i\in D$ for $i=1,\ldots,k-1$. For $D=\{2^i\mid i\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}\}$, it is known that…

We study dimensions of sumsets and iterated sumsets and provide natural conditions which guarantee that a set $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ satisfies $\overline{\dim}_\text{B} F+F > \overline{\dim}_\text{B} F$ or even $\dim_\text{H} n F \to 1$.…

We provide exact and asymptotic formulae for the number of unrestricted, respectively indecomposable, $d$-dimensional matrices where the sum of all matrix entries with one coordinate fixed equals 2.

Possible transcendental nature of Euler's constant $\gamma$ has been the focus of study for sometime now. One possible approach is to consider $\gamma$ not in isolation, but as an element of the infinite family of generalised Euler-Briggs…

A $k$-configuration is a collection of $k$ distinct integers $x_1,\ldots,x_k$ together with their pairwise arithmetic means $\frac{x_i+x_j}{2}$ for $1 \leq i < j \leq k$. Building on recent work of Filmus, Hatami, Hosseini and Kelman on…

Let $X$ be an arbitrary smooth hypersurface in $\mathbb{C} \mathbb{P}^n$ of degree $d$. We prove the de Jong-Debarre Conjecture for $n \geq 2d-4$: the space of lines in $X$ has dimension $2n-d-3$. We also prove an analogous result for…
