Mixed volumes in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space are functionals of $n$-tuples consisting of convex bodies $K,L,C_1,\ldots,C_{n-2}$. The Alexandrov--Fenchel inequalities are fundamental inequalities between mixed volumes of convex bodies,…
We illustrate how elementary information-theoretic ideas may be employed to provide proofs for well-known, nontrivial results in number theory. Specifically, we give an elementary and fairly short proof of the following asymptotic result:…
Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in…
We study the solution set to multivariate Chebyshev approximation problem, focussing on the ill-posed case when the uniqueness of solutions can not be established via strict polynomial separation. We obtain an upper bound on the dimension…
In this article we obtain an "off-diagonal" version of the Fefferman-Stein vector-valued maximal inequality on weighted Lebesgue spaces with variable exponents. As an application of this result and the atomic decomposition developed in [12]…
Working over a field $\kk$ of characteristic zero, this paper studies line embeddings of the form $\phi = (T_i,T_j,T_k):\A^1\to\A^3$, where $T_n$ denotes the degree $n$ Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. In {\it Section 4}, it is shown…
The orthorecursive expansion of unity with respect to the system $\{x, x^2, x^3, \ldots\}$ in $L^2([0,1])$ produces a sequence of rational coefficients $(c_n)$ defined by an explicit recurrence. Kalmynin and Kosenko established the bounds…
We prove several different anti-concentration inequalities for functions of independent Bernoulli-distributed random variables. First, motivated by a conjecture of Alon, Hefetz, Krivelevich and Tyomkyn, we prove some "Poisson-type"…
In his monograph [Classical and quantum orthogonal polynomials in one variable, Cambridge University Press, 2005 (paperback edition 2009)], Ismail conjectured that certain structure relations involving the Askey-Wilson operator characterize…
For $n$ positive numbers ($a_k$, $1\leq k \leq n$), enhanced inequalities about the arithmetic mean ($A_n \equiv \frac{\sum_ka_k}{n}$) and the geometric mean ($G_n\equiv \sqrt[n]{\Pi_ka_k}$) are found if some numbers are known, namely,…
In this paper we show that, if an increasing sequence $\Lambda=(\lambda_k)_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}$ has gaps going to infinity $\lambda_{k+1}-\lambda_k\to +\infty$ when $k\to\pm\infty$, then for every $T>0$ and every sequence…
Burchnall's method to invert the Feldheim-Watson linearization formula for the Hermite polynomials is extended to all polynomial families in the Askey-scheme and its $q$-analogue. The resulting expansion formulas are made explicit for…
In this article we consider a method of proving a class of inequalities of the form (1). The method is based on the precise approximations of the sine and cosine functions by Maclaurin polynomials of given order. By using this method we…
The asymptotic expansion of the Touchard polynomials $T_n(z)$ (also known as the exponential polynomials) for large $n$ and complex values of the variable $z$, where $|z|$ may be finite or allowed to be large like $O(n)$, has been recently…
It has been well-observed that an inequality of the type $\pi(x;q,a) > \pi(x;q,b)$ is more likely to hold if $a$ is a non-square modulo $q$ and $b$ is a square modulo $q$ (the so-called ``Chebyshev Bias''). For instance, each of…
In this paper we study some determinant inequalities and matrix inequalities which have a geometrical flavour. We first examine some inequalities which place work of Macbeath [13] in a more general setting and also relate to recent work of…
Threshold phenomena are investigated using a general approach, following Talagrand [Ann. Probab. 22 (1994) 1576--1587] and Friedgut and Kalai [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 12 (1999) 1017--1054]. The general upper bound for the threshold width of…
Lower bounds for the R\'enyi entropies of sums of independent random variables taking values in cyclic groups of prime order under permutations are established. The main ingredients of our approach are extended rearrangement inequalities in…
We prove quasipolynomial bounds on the inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^{s+1}[N]$-norm. The proof is modeled after work of Green, Tao, and Ziegler and uses as a crucial input recent work of the first author regarding the equidistribution…
One of the purposes in this paper is to provide a better understanding of the alternance property which occurs in Chebyshev polynomial approximation and piecewise polynomial approximation problems. In the first part of this paper, we…
