In recent years some near-optimal estimates have been established for certain sum-product type estimates. This paper gives some first extremal results which provide information about when these bounds may or may not be tight. The main tool…
We study the triple convolution sum of the generalised divisor functions $$\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n+h)d_l(n)d_m(n-h),$$ where $h \le x^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$ and $d_k(n)$ denotes the generalised divisor function which counts the…
We consider a priori estimates of possibly sign-changing solutions to superlinear parabolic problems and their applications (blow-up rates, energy blow-up, continuity of blow-up time, existence of nontrivial steady states etc). Our…
We investigate the solutions of the second-order difference equation $u_{n+2}=(au_n)/(1+bu_nu_{n+1})$ using a group of transformations (Lie symmetries) that leaves the solutions invariant.
We obtain an asymptotic formula with a power-saving error term for counting the integer points $(a,b,c,d)$ in an expanding box $[-X,X]^4$ that satisfy the determinant equation $x_1x_2-x_3x_4=r$ for $r \neq 0$ with two of entries to be…
We establish various upper bounds on Type-I and Type-II shifted bilinear sums with Sali\'e sums modulo a large prime $q$. We use these bounds to study, for fixed integers $a,b\not \equiv 0 \bmod q$, the distribution ofsolutions to the…
We derive a new bound for some bilinear sums over points of an elliptic curve over a finite field. We use this bound to improve a series of previous results on various exponential sums and some arithmetic problems involving points on…
We consider parabolic systems in divergence form with piecewise $C^{(s+\delta)/2,s+\delta}$ coefficients and data in a bounded domain consisting of a finite number of cylindrical subdomains with interfacial boundaries in $C^{s+1+\mu}$,…
We use a computer algebra system to compute, in an efficient way, optimal control variational symmetries up to a gauge term. The symmetries are then used to obtain families of Noether's first integrals, possibly in the presence of…
Many combinatorial optimization problems can be formulated as the search for a subgraph that satisfies certain properties and minimizes the total weight. We assume here that the vertices correspond to points in a metric space and can take…
This study develops an algorithm for distributed computing of linear programming problems of huge-scales. Global consensus with single common variable, multiblocks, and augmented Lagrangian are adopted. The consensus is used to partition…
We give an estimate of the general divided differences $[x_0,\dots,x_m;f]$, where some of the $x_i$'s are allowed to coalesce (in which case, $f$ is assumed to be sufficiently smooth). This estimate is then applied to significantly…
This note is devoted to establishing two-weight estimates for commutators of singular integrals. We combine multilinearity with product spaces. A new type of two-weight extrapolation result is used to yield the quasi-Banach range of…
A class of bivariate infinite series solutions of the elliptic and hyperbolic Kepler equations is described, adding to the handful of 1-D series that have been found throughout the centuries. This result is based on an iterative procedure…
In this paper, combining Nash-Moser iteration and Sallof-Coste type Sobolev ineualities, we establish fundamental and concise $C^0$ and $C^1$ estimates for solutions to a class of nonlinear elliptic equations of the form $$\Delta…
Fix nonzero ideal sheaves a_1,...,a_r on a normal Q-Gorenstein complex variety X. Fix any positive real number c, and consider the multiplier ideal J of the sum a_1+...+a_r with weighting coefficient c. We construct an exact sequence…
In this paper we study the finite trigonometric sum $\sum a_l\csc\big(\pi l/n\big)$, where $a_l$ are equal to $\cos(2\pi l \nu/n)$ and where the summation index $l$ and the discrete parameter $\nu$ both run through $1$ to $n-1$. This sum is…
We obtain an estimate for the cubic Weyl sum which improves the bound obtained from Weyl differencing for short ranges of summation. In particular, we show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists some $\delta>0$ such that for any coprime…
Algorithms for numerical computation of symmetric elliptic integrals of all three kinds are improved in several ways and extended to complex values of the variables (with some restrictions in the case of the integral of the third kind).…
We estimate the number of solutions of certain diagonal congruences involving factorials. We use these results to bound exponential sums with products of two factorials $n!m!$ and also derive asymptotic formulas for the number of solutions…
