Let $\mathbb{Z}^2$ be the two-dimensional integer lattice. For an integer $k\geq 1$, a non-zero lattice point is $k$-free if the greatest common divisor of its coordinates is a $k$-free number. We consider the proportions of $k$-free and…

In recent years, there has been some interest in applying ideas and methods taken from Physics in order to approach several challenging mathematical problems, particularly the Riemann Hypothesis. Most of these kind of contributions are…

The Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s):= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} 1/n^s$ can be interpreted as the energy per point of the lattice $\mathbb{Z}$, interacting pairwisely via the Riesz potential $1/r^s$. Given a parameter $\Delta\in (0,1]$, this…

We show that the current method of determining superfluidity in optical lattices based on a visibly sharp bosonic momentum distribution $n({\bf k})$ can be misleading, for even a normal Bose gas can have a similarly sharp $n({\bf k})$. We…

We present further results on a class of sums which involve complex powers of the distance to points in a two-dimensional square lattice and trigonometric functions of their angle, supplementing those in a previous paper (McPhedran et al,…

Let Q(u,v) be a positive definite binary quadratic form with arbitrary real coefficients. For large real x, one may ask for the number B(x) of primitive lattice points (integer points (m,n) with gcd(m,n) = 1) in the ellipse disc Q(u,v) < x,…

We consider the ring $\mathbb Z_n$ (integers modulo $n$) with the partial order `$\leq$' given by `$a \leq b$ if either $a=b$ or $a\equiv ab~(mod~n)$'. In this paper, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the poset ($\mathbb…

We consider the possible visits to visible points of a random walker moving up and right in the integer lattice (with probability $\alpha$ and $1-\alpha$, respectively) and starting from the origin. We show that, almost surely, the…

We prove that if $\phi: {\Bbb R}^d \times {\Bbb R}^d \to {\Bbb R}$, $d \ge 2$, is a homogeneous function, smooth away from the origin and having non-zero Monge-Ampere determinant away from the origin, then $$ R^{-d} # \{(n,m) \in {\Bbb Z}^d…

The Riemann Hypothesis, originally proposed by the eminent mathematician Bernard Riemann in 1859, remains one of the most profound challenges in number theory. It posits that all non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function {\zeta}(s) are…

It is a surprising fact that the proportion of integer lattice points visible from the origin is exactly $\frac{6}{\pi^2}$, or approximately 60 percent. Hence, approximately 40 percent of the integer lattice is hidden from the origin. Since…

We consider the proportion of generalized visible lattice points in the plane visited by random walkers. Our work concerns the visible lattice points in random walks in three aspects: (1) generalized visibility along curves; (2) one random…

We prove uniform versions of two classical results in analytic number theory. The first is an asymptotic for the number of points of a complete lattice $\Lambda \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ inside the $d$-sphere of radius $R$. In contrast to…

The Riemann hypothesis, conjectured by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, claims that the non-trivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ lie on the line $\Re(s) =1/2$. The density hypothesis is a conjectured estimate $N(\lambda, T) =O\bigl(T\sp{2(1-\lambda)…

The "visibility" of a planar set $S$ from a point $a$ is defined as the normalized size of the radial projection of $S$ from $a$ to the unit circle centered at $a$. Simon and Solomyak (Real Anal. Exchange 2006/07) proved that unrectifiable…

For $A\in\mathbb{Z}^{m\times n}$ we investigate the behaviour of the number of lattice points in $P_A(b)=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:Ax\leq b\}$, depending on the varying vector $b$. It is known that this number, restricted to a cone of constant…

We comment on the set of visible points of a lattice and its Fourier transform, thus continuing and generalizing previous work by Schroeder and Mosseri. A closed formula in terms of Dirichlet series is obtained for the Bragg part of the…

The Riemann hypothesis, stating that the real part of all non-trivial zero points fo the zeta function must be $\frac{1}{2}$, is one of the most important unproven hypothesises in number theory. In this paper we will proof the Riemann…

We present the first applications of the recently established by us (arXiv:1304.7895; Ukrainian Math. J. - 2014. -66. - P. 371-383) generalized Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis. This criterion is the statement that the…
