We consider approximation by functions with finite support and characterize its approximation spaces in terms of interpolation spaces and Lorentz spaces.
We prove various theorems on approximation using polynomials with integer coefficients in the Bernstein basis of any given order. In the extreme, we draw the coefficients from $\{ \pm 1\}$ only. A basic case of our results states that for…
We present explicit expressions for multi-fold logarithmic integrals that are equivalent to sums over polygamma functions at integer argument. Such relations find application in perturbative quantum field theory, quantum chemistry, analytic…
We show the following bounds on the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ using principles from analytic number theory, giving an estimate: $$2 \log 2 \geq \limsup_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{\pi(x)}{x / \log x} \geq \liminf_{x \rightarrow…
This paper is a continuation of our recent papers with the same title, arXiv:0806.1596v1 [math.NT], arXiv:0904.1277v1 where a number of integral equalities involving integrals of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function were introduced…
A celebrated conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood provides with an asymptotic formula for the counting function of the twin primes. We give an unconditional proof of such a formula by means of a finite Ramanujan expansion of the counting…
On any metric space, I provide an intrinsic characterization of those complex-valued functions which are uniform limits of Lipschitz functions. There are applications to function theory on complete Riemannian manifolds and, in particular,…
In the present paper we introduce the notion of harmonicity modulus and harmonicity K-functional and apply these notions to prove a Jackson type theorem for approximation of continuous functions by polyharmonic functions. For corresponding…
We study the optimal rectangular-discrepancy approximation of permutons by finite permutations. We transfer bounds from discrepancy theory to this more restricted setup. Moreover, we show that superlinear approximation can occur only for…
We simplify the proof of some widely used theoretical theorems, extending their applicability, while correcting some erroneous results. We also generalize key results and present new results that contribute to the development of the theory.…
We prove a uniform boundary Harnack inequality for nonnegative harmonic functions of the fractional Laplacian on arbitrary open set $D$. This yields a unique representation of such functions as integrals against measures on $D^c\cup…
We consider approximation or recovery of functions based on a finite number of function evaluations. This is a well-studied problem in optimal recovery, machine learning, and numerical analysis in general, but many fundamental insights were…
In the paper, we first prove a sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis which involves the order of magnitude of the partial sum of the Liouville function. Then we show a formula which is curiously related to the proved sufficient…
We represent the Riemann zeta function in the half-plane $\Re s >1$ via series whose terms admit geometrically decreasing bounds. Due to an underlying recurrence relation, which is used to compute coefficients entering into the terms, the…
We define a class of rational numbers including, as a particular case, the classical harmonic numbers. For one particular instance we apply it to the expansion into powers series of a special function, and also detail its relashionship with…
In this note we present a method to bound gaps between primes via the divergence of the series of reciprocals of the prime numbers, a consequence of a version of the Bertrand's test for convergence of series of positive numbers and a…
This analysis which uses new mathematical methods aims at proving the Riemann hypothesis and figuring out an approximate base for imaginary non-trivial zeros of zeta function at very large numbers, in order to determine the path that those…
We give a general method to obtain from the integral restrictions of functions sharp pointwise and uniform estimates of these functions. This scheme is illustrated by the examples for Fock\,--\,Bargmann spaces of entire functions of several…
In this short note, we obtain error estimates for Riemann sums of some singular functions.
We use ideas from quantitative homogenization to show that nonconstant harmonic functions on the percolation cluster cannot satisfy certain structural constraints, for example, a Lipschitz bound. These unique-continuation-type results are…
