For $\mu$ an edge percolation measure on the infinite square lattice, let $\mu_{\textit{hp}}$ (respectively, $\mu^*_{hp}$) denote its marginal (respectively, the marginal of its planar dual process) on the upper half-plane. We show that if…
Let $(\lambda_k)$ be a strictly increasing sequence of positive numbers such that $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{\lambda_k} < \infty.$ Let $f $ be a bounded smooth function and denote by $u= u^f$ the bounded classical solution to $u(x) -…
Let $f(z)=\sum_{n\ge0}a_n z^n$ be a transcendental entire function and write $M(r,f):=\max_{|z|=r}|f(z)|$ and $\mu(r,f):=\max_{n\ge0}|a_n|\,r^n$. A problem of Erd\H{o}s asks for the value of $$ B:=\sup_f…
Given a space $X$, a $\sigma$-algebra $\mathfrak{B}$ on $X$ and a measurable map $T:X \to X$, we say that a measure $\mu$ is half-invariant if, for any $B \in \mathfrak{B}$, we have $\mu(T^{-1}(B)\leq \mu (B)$. In this note we present a…
Let $(X,\mu)$ be a probability space equipped with an invertible, measure-preserving transformation $T\colon X \to X$. We exhibit a wide class of weights $w$ so that whenever $f,g \in L^{\infty}(X)$, the bilinear ergodic averages \[…
In unbounded subset $\Omega$ in $R^n$ we study the operator $u\rightarrow gu$ as an operator defined in the Sobolev space $W^{r,p}(\Omega)$ and which takes values in $L^p(\Omega)$. The functions $g$ belong to wider spaces of $L^p$ connected…
Generalising the Cameron--Erd\H{o}s conjecture to two dimensions, Elsholtz and Rackham conjectured that the number of sum-free subsets of $[n]^2$ is $2^{0.6n^2+O(n)}$. We prove their conjecture.
Let $\lambda_{\phi}(n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke holomorphic or Hecke--Maass cusp form on ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies two mild hypotheses. We establish a non-trivial upper…
We embed the somewhat unusual multiplicative function, which was serendipitously discovered in 2010 during a study of mutually unbiased bases in the Hilbert space of quantum physics, into two families of multiplicative functions that we…
Let $\nu_{f}(n)$ be the $n$-th nomalized Fourier coefficient of a Hecke--Maass cusp form $f$ for ${\rm SL}(2,\Z)$ and let $\alpha$ be a real number. We prove strong oscillations of the argument of $\nu_{f}(n)\mu (n) \exp (2\pi i n \alpha)$…
We prove part of a conjecture of Borwein and Choi concerning an estimate on the square of the number of solutions to n=x^2+Ny^2 for a squarefree integer N.
Any function F : {0,...,N-1} -> {-1,1} such that F(x) can be computed from the binary digits of x using a bounded depth circuit is orthogonal to the Mobius function mu in the sense that E_{0 <= x <= N-1} mu(x)F(x) = o(1). The proof combines…
We prove that the genuine $C_{2^n}$-spectrum $N_{C_{2}}^{C_{2^n}}MU_{\mathbb{R}}$ is cofree, for all $n$. Our proof is a formal argument using chromatic hypercubes and the Slice Theorem of Hill, Hopkins, and Ravenel. We show that this gives…
Recently, Andrews defined a partition function $\mathcal{EO}(n)$ which counts the number of partitions of $n$ in which every even part is less than each odd part. He also defined a partition function $\overline{\mathcal{EO}}(n)$ which…
We study the problem of finding a function u verifying --$\Delta$u = 0 in $\Omega$ under the boundary condition $\partial$u $\partial$n + g(u) = $\mu$ on $\partial$$\Omega$ where $\Omega$ $\subset$ R N is a smooth domain, n the normal unit…
In this paper, using the compression method, we recover the lower bound for the Erd\H{o}s unit distance problem and provide an alternative proof to the distinct distance conjecture. In particular, in $\mathbb{R}^k$ for all $k\geq 2$, we…
In this paper The Ergodic Hypothesis is proven for one class of functions defined in the infinite dimensional unite cube where is given an action of some semigroup of mappings without the condition on metric transitivity. The result has not…
A function from $\Bbb F_{2^n}$ to $\Bbb F_{2^n}$ is said to be {\em $k$th order sum-free} if the sum of its values over each $k$-dimensional $\Bbb F_2$-affine subspace of $\Bbb F_{2^n}$ is nonzero. This notion was recently introduced by C.…
We study which integers are admissible as Fourier coefficients of even integer weight newforms. In the specific case of the tau-function, we show that for all odd primes $\ell < 100$ and all integers $m \geq 1$, we have $$ \tau(n) \neq \pm…
Given a multiplicative function $f$, we let $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq x}f(n)$ be the associated partial sum. In this note, we show that lower bounds on partial sums of divisor-bounded functions result in lower bounds on the partial sums…
