First, we obtain a new formula for Bremermann type upper envelopes, that arise frequently in convex analysis and pluripotential theory, in terms of the Legendre transform of the convex- or plurisubharmonic-envelope of the boundary data.…
We introduce discretizations of infinite-dimensional optimization problems with total variation regularization and integrality constraints on the optimization variables. We advance the discretization of the dual formulation of the total…
Given the asymptotic expansion for the logarithmic integral $\int_0^n \frac{dt}{\ln(t)}$, obtained from repeated integration by parts until the expansion terms reach a minimum; approaching zero. Which determines a cut-off for the number of…
In this paper, we study an asymptotic distribution of sets of primes satisfying certain "linking conditions" in arithmetic topology, namely, conditions given by the Legendre and R\'edei symbols among sets of primes. As our Main Theorem, we…
Under the assumption of the Riemann Hypothesis (RH), we prove explicit quantitative relations between hypothetical error terms in the asymptotic formulae for truncated mean-square average of exponential sums over primes and in the…
The author gives nontrivial upper and lower bounds for the number of primes in the interval $[x - x^{\theta}, x]$ for some $0.52 \leqslant \theta \leqslant 0.525$, showing that the interval $[x - x^{0.52}, x]$ contains prime numbers for all…
Motivated by their research on automorphism groups of pseudo-real Riemann surfaces, Bujalance, Cirre and Conder have conjectured that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p+2$ has all its prime factors $q\equiv -1$ mod~$(4)$. We…
It is well-known that by adding integrality constraints to the semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation of the max-cut problem, the resulting integer semidefinite program is an exact formulation of the problem. In this paper we show…
We establish lower bounds for all weighted even moments of primes up to $X$ in intervals which are in agreement with a conjecture of Montgomery and Soundararajan. Our bounds hold unconditionally for an unbounded set of values of $X$, and…
Hal\'asz's Theorem gives an upper bound for the mean value of a multiplicative function $f$. The bound is sharp for general such $f$, and, in particular, it implies that a multiplicative function with $|f(n)|\le 1$ has either mean value…
A geometric-arithmetic progression of primes is a set of $k$ primes (denoted by GAP-$k$) of the form $p_1 r^j + j d$ for fixed $p_1$, $r$ and $d$ and consecutive $j$, {\it i.e}, $\{p_1, \, p_1 r + d, \, p_1 r^2 + 2 d, \, p_1 r^3 + 3 d,…
Numerical analysis has no satisfactory method for the more realistic optimization models. However, with constraint programming one can compute a cover for the solution set to arbitrarily close approximation. Because the use of constraint…
For any positive integer $q\geq 2$ and any real number $\delta\in(0,1)$, let $\alpha_q(n,\delta n)$ denote the maximum size of a subset of $\mathbb{Z}_q^n$ with minimum Hamming distance at least $\delta n$, where…
We initiate study of the Terwilliger algebra and related semidefinite programming techniques for the conjugacy scheme of the symmetric group Sym$(n)$. In particular, we compute orbits of ordered pairs on Sym$(n)$ acted upon by conjugation…
Using a capacity approach, and the theory of measure's perturbation of Dirichlet forms, we give the probabilistic representation of the General Robin boundary value problems on an arbitrary domain $\Omega$, involving smooth measures, which…
We develop refinements of the Levenshtein bound in $q$-ary Hamming spaces by taking into account the discrete nature of the distances versus the continuous behavior of certain parameters used by Levenshtein. The first relevant cases are…
We study robust convex quadratic programs where the uncertain problem parameters can contain both continuous and integer components. Under the natural boundedness assumption on the uncertainty set, we show that the generic problems are…
We consider a problem of P. Erdos, A. M. Odlyzko and A. Sarkozy about the representation of residue classes modulo m by products of two not too large primes. While it seems that even the Extended Riemann Hypothesis is not powerful enough to…
In this paper we establish function field versions of two classical conjectures on prime numbers. The first says that the number of primes in intervals (x,x+x^epsilon] is about x^epsilon/log x and the second says that the number of primes…
We study a family of partial differential equations in the complex domain, under the action of a complex perturbation parameter $\epsilon$. We construct inner and outer solutions of the problem and relate them to asymptotic representations…
