With the aim of treating the local behaviour of additive functions, we develop analogues of the Matom\"{a}ki-Radziwill theorem that allow us to approximate the average of a general additive function over a typical short interval in terms of…

We characterize the limiting behavior of partial sums of multiplicative functions $f:\mathbb{F}_q[t]\to S^1$. In contrast to the number field setting, the characterization depends crucially on whether the notion of discrepancy is defined…

The normal covering number $\gamma(G)$ of a finite, non-cyclic group $G$ is the minimum number of proper subgroups such that each element of $G$ lies in some conjugate of one of these subgroups. We find lower bounds linear in $n$ for…

Recently, we studied the branching ratios of rare K and B decays in models with Minimal Flavor Violation (MFV) using the presently available information from the universal unitarity triangle analysis and from the measurements of Br(B -> Xs…

We show that the Fr\"olicher spectral sequence of a complex parallelizable solvmanifold is degenerate at $E_{2}$-term. For a semi-direct product $G=\C^{n}\ltimes_{\phi}N$ of Lie-groups with lattice $\Gamma=\Gamma^{\prime}\ltimes…

The main result of this paper is: {\bf Theorem.} Let $f:\mathbb{R}^k\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a $C^{1}$ function, so that $\nabla f$ is locally Lipschitz continuous. Assume moreover that $f$ is $C^2$ near its generalised saddle points. Fix…

We show that provided $\log^{50} n/n \leq p \leq 1 - n^{-1/4}\log^9 n$ we can with high probability find a collection of $\lfloor \delta(G)/2 \rfloor$ edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles in $G \sim G_{n, p}$, plus an additional edge-disjoint…

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 $(u_n)_{n \geq 0}$ be a non-degenerate Lucas sequence, given by the relation $u_n=a_1 u_{n-1}+a_2 u_{n-2}$. Let $\ell_u(m)=lcm(m, z_u(m))$, for $(m,a_2)=1$, where $z_u(m)$ is the rank of appearance of $m$ in $u_n$. We prove that…

In the late eighties, Hildebrand and Tenenbaum proved an asymptotic formula for the number of positive integers below $x$, having exactly $\nu$ distinct prime divisors: $\pi_{\nu}(x) \sim x \delta_{\nu}(x)$. Here we consider the restricted…

Let $f:M\to N$ be a smooth area decreasing map between two Riemannian manifolds $(M,\gm)$ and $(N,\gn)$. Under weak and natural assumptions on the curvatures of $(M,\gm)$ and $(N,\gn)$, we prove that the mean curvature flow provides a…

The author defines and analyzes the $1/k$ length spectra, $L_{1/k}(M)$, whose union, over all $k\in \NN$ is the classical length spectrum. These new length spectra are shown to converge in the sense that $\lim_{i\to\infty} L_{1/k}(M_i)…

The objective of this paper is to obtain asymptotic results for shifted sums of multiplicative functions of the form $g \ast 1$, where the function $g$ satisfies the Ramanujan conjecture and has conjectured upper bounds on square moments of…

Let $(X, g_0)$ be a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvatures $K_{g_0}$ satisfying $-b^2 \leq K_{g_0} \leq -1$ for some $b \geq 1$. Let $g_1$ be a Riemannian metric on $X$ such that $g_1 = g_0$ outside a…

Given an arbitrary finite dimensional Hamiltonian H_0, we consider the model H=H_0+\Delta H, where \Delta H is a generic fully connected interaction. By using the strong law of large numbers we easily prove that, for all such models, a…

Zeckendorf proved that every integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers $\{1,2,3,5,\dots\}$. This has been extended to many other recurrence relations $\{G_n\}$ (with their own notion of a legal…

We study a mathematical model of in situ leaching of rare metals, in which the joint filtration of two liquids is governed by the microscopic model $\mathbb{A}^{\varepsilon}$. A key difficulty is the unknown (free) boundary $\Gamma(r)$…

The aim of this paper is to deal with the asymptotics of generalized Orlicz norms when the lower growth rate tends to infinity. $\Gamma$-convergence results and related representation theorems in terms of $L^\infty$ functionals are proven…

The mean subtree order of a given graph $G$, denoted $\mu(G)$, is the average number of vertices in a subtree of $G$. Let $G$ be a connected graph. Chin, Gordon, MacPhee, and Vincent [J. Graph Theory, 89(4): 413-438, 2018] conjectured that…
