Let $k$ and $n$ be natural numbers. Let $\omega_k(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ with multiplicity $k$ as studied by Elma and the third author. We obtain asymptotic estimates for the first and the second moments of…

This paper addresses to Nichtnegativstellens\"atze for definable functions in o-minimal structures on $(\mathbb{R}, +, \cdot).$ Namely, let $f, g_1, \ldots, g_l \colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ be definable $C^p$-functions ($p \ge 2$)…

For any given integer $k\geq 2$ we prove the existence of infinitely many $q$ and characters $ \chi\pmod q$ of order $k$, such that $|L(1,\chi)|\geq (e^{\gamma}+o(1))\log\log q$. We believe this bound to be best possible. When the order $k$…

We generalize the Sarkozy-Furstenberg theorem on squares in difference sets of integers, and show that, given any positive definite function f:Z_N->C with density at least r(N), where r(N)=O((\log N)^{-c}), there is a perfect square s<=N/2…

A concentration of measure result is proved for the number of isolated vertices $Y$ in the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph model on $n$ edges with edge probability $p$. When $\mu$ and $\sigma^2$ denote the mean and variance of $Y$…

Let $f(N)$ denote the least integer $k$ such that, if $G$ is an abelian group of order $N$ and $A \subseteq G$ is a uniformly random $k$-element subset, then with probability at least $\tfrac12$ the subset-sum set $\{ \sum_{x \in S} x : S…

We develop an approach to study character sums, weighted by a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{F}_q[t]\to S^1$, of the form \begin{equation} \sum_{G\in \mathcal{M}_N}f(G)\chi(G)\xi(G), \end{equation} where $\chi$ is a Dirichlet character…

Let $\A=\{a_1<a_2<a_3.....<a_n<...\}$ be an infinite sequence of integers and let $R_2(n)=|\{(i,j):\ \ a_i+a_j=n;\ \ a_i,a_j\in \A;\ \ i\le j\}|$. We define $S_k=\s_{l=1}^k(R_2(2l)-R_2(2l+1))$. We prove that, if $L^{\infty}$ norm of…

We estimate the concentration functions of $n$-fold convolutions of one-dimensional probability measures. The main result is a supplement to the results of G\"otze and Zaitsev (1998). We show that the estimation of concentration functions…

Let $\textbf{k} := (k_1,\ldots,k_s)$ be a sequence of natural numbers. For a graph $G$, let $F(G;\textbf{k})$ denote the number of colourings of the edges of $G$ with colours $1,\dots,s$ such that, for every $c \in \{1,\dots,s\}$, the edges…

Let $(r_k)$ be an increasing sequence and $(w_k)$ a positive sequence. We study the following question: is it true that for every sequence $(a_k)$ satisfying $\sum_{k=0}^\infty |a_k|^2 w_k^2 < \infty$ there exists a function $f\in…

Strassen's asymptotic rank conjecture [Progr. Math. 120 (1994)] claims a strong submultiplicative upper bound on the rank of a three-tensor obtained as an iterated Kronecker product of a constant-size base tensor. The conjecture, if true,…

We prove that there exists a function $f:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that every directed graph $G$ contains either $k$ directed odd cycles where every vertex of $G$ is contained in at most two of them, or a set of at most $f(k)$…

Let $\{f_k\}$ be a sequence of entire functions that are real valued on the real-line. We study the expected number of real zeros of random sums of the form $P_n(z)=\sum_{k=0}^n\eta_k f_k(z)$, where $\{\eta_k\}$ are real valued…

Let K be a number field containing the n-th roots of unity for some n > 2. We prove a uniform subconvexity result for a family of double Dirichlet series built out of central values of Hecke L-functions of n-th order characters of K. The…

We consider Birkhoff sums of functions with a singularity of type 1/x over rotations and prove the following limit theorem. Let $S_N= S_N(\alpha,x)$ be the N^th non-renormalized Birkhoff sum, where $x in [0,1)$ is the initial point,…

In this paper, we study the analogous Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture in higher dimensions and generalize the Eigen-Falconer theorem. We show that if $A=\{\boldsymbol{x}_n\}_{n=1}^\infty \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ is a sequence of non-zero…
