We prove Veech's conjecture on the equivalence of Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius orthogonality with a Kolmogorov type property of Furstenberg systems of the M\''obius function. This yields a combinatorial condition on the M\"obius function…
We show that the (morphic) sequence $(-1)^{s_\varphi(n)}$ is asymptotically orthogonal to all bounded multiplicative functions, where $s_\varphi$ denotes the Zeckendorf sum-of-digits function. In particular we have $\sum_{n<N}…
Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus >1 over a field K which is finitely generated over the rationals. The section conjecture in Grothendieck's anabelian geometry says that the sections of the canonical projection from the arithmetic…
By a [$K$-]approximate subring of a ring we mean an additively symmetric subset $X$ such that $X \cdot X \cup (X + X)$ is covered by finitely many [resp.\ $K$] additive translates of $X$. We prove a structure theorem for finite approximate…
We study the growth rate of the summatory function of the M\"obius function in the context of an algebraic curve over a finite field. Our work shows a strong resemblance to its number field counterpart, which was proved by Ng in 2004. We…
We prove Sarnak's density conjecture for the principal congruence subgroup of SL_n(Z) of squarefree level and discuss various arithmetic applications. The ingredients include new bounds for local Whittaker functions and Kloosterman sums.
For a nilmanifold $G/\Gamma$, a $1$-Lipschitz continuous function $F$ and the M\"obius sequence $\mu(n)$, we prove a bound on the decay of the averaged short interval correlation $$\frac1{HN}\sum_{n\leq N}\Big|\sum_{h\leq H}…
We show that if $y=(y_n)_{n\ge 1}$ is a bounded sequence with zero average along every infinite arithmetic progression then for every $N\ge 2$ there exist (unilateral or bilateral) subshifts $\Sigma$ over $N$ symbols, with entropy…
Let $k$ be a number field and $G$ be a finite group. Let $\mathfrak{F}_{k}^{G}(Q)$ be the family of number fields $K$ with absolute discriminant $D_K$ at most $Q$ such that $K/k$ is normal with Galois group isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is the…
We prove Hypothesis H in full generality for ${\rm GL}_n$ over any number field. This result is a consequence of our stronger effective bound on Euler products involving Rankin--Selberg coefficients at prime ideal powers. The proof rests on…
We introduce a class of multiplicative functions in which each function satisfies some statistic conditions, and then prove that above functions are not correlated with finite degree polynomial nilsequences. Besides, we give two…
We prove the analogue of the Martingale Convergence Theorem for polynomial spline sequences. Given a natural number $k $ and a sequence $(t_i)$ of knots in $[0,1]$ with multiplicity $\le k-1$, we let $P_n $ be the orthogonal projection onto…
Let $p$ be a polynomial in several non-commuting variables with coefficients in a field $K$ of arbitrary characteristic. It has been conjectured that for any $n$, for $p$ multilinear, the image of $p$ evaluated on the set $M_n(K)$ of $n$ by…
Sarnak's Density Conjecture is an explicit bound on the multiplicities of non-tempered representations in a sequence of cocompact congruence arithmetic lattices in a semisimple Lie group, which is motivated by the work of Sarnak and Xue.…
In this paper, we prove the following non-linear generalization of the classical Sylvester-Gallai theorem. Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, and $\mathcal{F}=\{F_1,\cdots,F_m\} \subset…
We establish two ergodic theorems which have among their corollaries numerous classical results from multiplicative number theory, including the Prime Number Theorem, a theorem of Pillai-Selberg, a theorem of Erd\H{o}s-Delange, the mean…
In the large rank limit, for any nonexceptional affine algebra, the graded branching multiplicities known as one-dimensional sums, are conjectured to have a simple relationship with those of type A, which are known as generalized Kostka…
We study properties of arithmetic sets coming from multiplicative number theory and obtain applications in the theory of uniform distribution and ergodic theory. Our main theorem is a generalization of K\'atai's orthogonality criterion.…
Let $G$ be a semiabelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field $K$, endowed with a rational self-map $\Phi$. Let $\alpha\in G(K)$ and let $\Gamma\subseteq G(K)$ be a finitely generated subgroup. We show that the set…
We solve the dual multijoint problem and prove the existence of so-called "factorisations" for arbitrary fields and multijoints of $k_j$-planes. More generally, we deduce a discrete analogue of a theorem due in essence to Bourgain and Guth.…
