In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the maximum of partial sums of certain cubic exponential sums, commonly known as "Birch sums". Our main theorem gives upper and lower bounds (of nearly the same order of magnitude) for the…
We investigate the problem of the distribution of sums of functions of prime numbers located on an arithmetic progression. This problem is closely related to the problem of the distribution of prime numbers on an arithmetic progression.…
Let $K$ be a locally compact non-discrete field of characteristic $p>2$ and $Q$ be a non-degenerate isotropic binary quadratic form with coefficients in $K$. We obtain asymptotic estimates for the number of solutions in the two-fold product…
Given a linear equation of the form $a_1x_1 + a_2x_2 + a_3x_3 = 0$ with integer coefficients $a_i$, we are interested in maximising the number of solutions to this equation in a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{Z}$, for sets $S$ of a given size. We…
We are interested in approximation of a multivariate function $f(x_1,\dots,x_d)$ by linear combinations of products $u^1(x_1)\cdots u^d(x_d)$ of univariate functions $u^i(x_i)$, $i=1,\dots,d$. In the case $d=2$ it is a classical problem of…
We prove a priori estimates in $L_\infty$ for a class of quasilinear stochastic partial differential equations. The estimates are obtained independently of the ellipticity constant $\varepsilon$ and thus imply analogous estimates for…
In this paper, we study the accuracy of values aggregated over classes predicted by a classification algorithm. The problem is that the resulting aggregates (e.g., sums of a variable) are known to be biased. The bias can be large even for…
We study the periodic boundary value problem associated with the second order nonlinear equation \begin{equation*} u'' + ( \lambda a^{+}(t) - \mu a^{-}(t) ) g(u) = 0, \end{equation*} where $g(u)$ has superlinear growth at zero and sublinear…
We prove non-trivial bounds for general bilinear forms in hyper-Kloosterman sums when the sizes of both variables may be below the P\'olya-Vinogradov range. We then derive applications to the second moment of holomorphic cusp forms twisted…
Let $A$ be a finite set of positive real numbers. We present a sum-division estimate: |A+A|^2|A/A|\geq\frac{|A|^4}{4}.
A priori estimates for finite-difference approximations for the first and second order derivatives are obtained for solutions of parabolic equations described in the title.
The functional determinant multiplicative anomaly, or defect, is more closely investigated and explicit forms for products of linear operators are produced. I also present formulae for the defect of products of second order operators in…
In this paper we prove some results on sum-product estimates over arbitrary finite fields. More precisely, we show that for sufficiently small sets $A\subset \mathbb{F}_q$ we have \[|(A-A)^2+(A-A)^2|\gg |A|^{1+\frac{1}{21}}.\] This can be…
As a consequence of the Integral Test we find a triple inequality which bounds up and down both a series with respect to its corresponding improper integral, and reciprocally an improper integral with respect to its corresponding series.
We establish several sum-product estimates over finite fields that involve polynomials and rational functions. First, |f(A)+f(A)|+|AA| is substantially larger than |A| for an arbitrary polynomial f over F_p. Second, a characterization is…
We present subquadratic algorithms in the algebraic decision-tree model for several \textsc{3Sum}-hard geometric problems, all of which can be reduced to the following question: Given two sets $A$, $B$, each consisting of $n$ pairwise…
The tensor product of a positive and a negative discrete series representation of the quantum algebra U_q(su(1,1)) decomposes as a direct integral over the principal unitary series representations. Discrete terms can appear, and these terms…
Given a finite subset S in F_p^d, let a(S) be the number of distinct r-tuples (x_1,...,x_r) in S such that x_1+...+x_r = 0. We consider the "moments" F(m,n) = sum_|S|=n a(S)^m. Specifically, we present an explicit formula for F(m,n) as a…
We establish good numerical estimates for a certain class of integrals involving sixfold products of Bessel functions. We use relatively elementary methods. The estimates will be used in the study of a sharp Fourier restriction inequality…
In this paper we derive quantitative uniqueness estimates at infinity for solutions to an elliptic equation with unbounded drift in the plane. More precisely, let $u$ be a real solution to $\Delta u+W\cdot\nabla u=0$ in ${\mathbf R}^2$,…
